Shortly after being sworn in before the media, Logan (Gregory Itzin) finds out that the nation's nuclear arsenal might be at risk, and goes into panic mode, taking refuge in an underground command center beneath the White House. Marwan's (Arnold Vosloo) dastardly plans are going smoothly, until one of his men, Yosik (Nicholas Guilak), calls to say he absent-mindedly used his credit card to buy gas. Sure enough, Chloe (Mary Lynn Rajskub) notices the transaction, made in Torrance by one of Marwan's known associates, and Curtis (Roger R. Cross) is dispatched to find Yosik. CTU tracks him to a local marina, where he meets with a man named Joe Prado (John Thaddeus). The two get on a boat, presumably to make their escape, but Yosik spots Curtis' team moving in, and, following Marwan's instructions, prepares to kill Prado, then himself. However, Prado overhears him on the phone and kills Yosik, then surrenders to CTU, claiming that he's an innocent bystander and that Yosik was trying to steal his boat. Prado is taken to CTU for questioning, but when Marwan realizes that he's been captured, he arranges to have David Weiss (Evan Handler of Sex and the City), a lawyer from "Amnesty Global," visit CTU Los Angeles with a court order, to make sure the sleazy mercenary is not tortured. Buchanan (James Morrison) tries to get Logan to sign off on the interrogation, but, warned by his advisor Walt Cummings (John Allen Nelson), the acting president is unwilling to sign off on it without first consulting with the Justice Department. Once again, Jack (Kiefer Sutherland) is forced to take matters into his own hands. ~ Josh Ralske, All Movie Guide

A man searching for clues to his past pays a visit to the place where he was born in this drama laced with romance and music from India. Mohan Bhargava (Shah Rukh Khan) left the small village in India where he was born and raised to travel to the United States, where he worked as part of the American space program. But after the death of his parents, Mohan becomes nostalgic for his home and takes a leave of absence in order to visit Kaveri (Kishori Ballal), a woman who helped to raise him as a boy. While searching for Kaveri, Mohan becomes reacquainted with Gita (Gayatri Joshi), one of his friends from his school days who has stayed behind to serve the community as a teacher. Gita thinks little of Mohan's desire to bring Kaveri back to the United States with him, but she also finds herself struck by the charm and intelligence of the adult Mohan, and the two develop a strong infatuation. But many in the community have little regard for Mohan's accomplishments in the United States until he steps forward to help his old neighbors by revamping the village's antiquated electrical system. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

In the first episode of a two-part story, Sydney's perennial nemesis Sark (David Anders) has ostensibly mended his ways and joined the staff of SD-6. Sark's former confederate Irina (Lena Olin) suspects that he is up to no good -- and she turns out to be right on target when Sark delivers the highly volatile Uzbek communication codes into the hands of insurgents. Inasmuch as these codes have the capability of activating half a dozen nuclear warheads, Irina is in a position to negotiate a 48-hour release from CIA custody so that she, her daughter, Sydney (Jennifer Garner), and her ex-husband, Jack (Victor Garber), can head to Pakistan in the guise of vacation tourists. Upon arrival, this "happy family" begins to track down the codes, their efforts compromised by Syd and Jack's inability to thoroughly trust Irina. Meanwhile back in the U.S.A., Will (Bradley Cooper) is astonished by the CIA's indifference to his findings concerning Project Christmas. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
