Jack (Kiefer Sutherland) tells Audrey (Kim Raver) that Paul (James Frain) was shot while saving his life. Paul is flown in to CTU, where surgeons try to save him. Audrey seems to be rediscovering her feelings for her husband. Heller (William Devane) tells Keeler (Geoff Pierson) that Marwan (Arnold Vosloo) is probably going to strike again, and Keeler suggests they make provisions for civil unrest. CTU finds the name of Joseph Fayed (Adam Alexi-Malle) on the document retrieved from McLennan-Forster, and he's on their terrorist watch list. Jack comes up with a plot to have Dina Araz (Shohreh Aghdashloo) approach Fayed for help (even though she insists she's never met the man, because Marwan has been careful to keep his cells separated), claiming that she took Jack hostage during a firefight. Dina agrees to help when Jack promises to put her and Behrooz (Jonathan Ahdout) in witness protection together. Jack and Dina go to Fayed's home, and Dina convinces him to contact Marwan. Fayed sends his men to pick them up, but CTU's attempts to track them go awry. Anderson (Ned Vaughn), with help from a mysterious woman (Dagmara Dominczyk), abducts a pilot, and then uses him to get into a military base. Back at CTU, Sara's been ousted and Edgar (Louis Lombardi) seems despondent over his mother's death. Tony (Carlos Bernard) tells Michelle (Reiko Aylesworth) that Driscoll canned Chloe (Mary Lynn Rajskub) over her loyalty to Jack, and Michelle decides to call her back to work. ~ Josh Ralske, All Movie Guide

Based on actual events which occurred aboard the "USS Constitution", this made-for-cable movie begins as young Maddie Nolan (Hayden Panettiere) boards the Naval carrier under the command of her father Gary (Bill Pullman). Maddie is participating in a traditional "tiger cruise", wherein the family members of Naval personnel are invited to join the men and women in uniform during a typical days of maneuvers. Unlike her fellow passengers, however, Maddie has an ulterior motive: Weary of being a "Navy brat" who has spent her childhood moving from one base to another, she is hoping to persuade her father to give up the service and settle down in one place. But on the third day at sea, Commander Dolan's carrier is ordered to assume "combat mode": the date is September 11, 2001, and America is under attack! Tiger Cruise debuted August 6, 2004, on the Disney Channel. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
