At 10:46:04, Buchanan is driving a windowless blue molester-van through DC, as Chloe reports in to him with Kiefer's present activities and the GPS coordinates for the rendezvous point, which Buchanan says he's ten minutes away from. That'll prove to be off by a bit, but what's five minutes when you're busting someone out of an FBI field office in real time? Chloe switches her phone back over to Kiefer, who has been spending the commercial break getting ready to go. He's got his briefcase strapped across his body in man-purse style, since he's not about to leave his legal papers behind, but he's waited until now to showily cock Walker's gun. Chloe tells him the corridor is clear, and he steps out into the open. Luckily, Tony's interrogation room is still right across the hall from where Kiefer got stashed, and Walker's pass lets him right in. He charges in, weapon leveled, and disarms a very angry Moss and the uniformed guard while Tony tries not to smile too much. Kiefer orders the guard to uncuff Tony. "Where's Agent Walker? What did you do to her?" Moss demands, all worried about his girlfriend. Kiefer tells him to shut up. Moss warns Kiefer that he isn't going to be able to get out, and gets knocked unconscious for his trouble. With his hands free, Tony does the same for the uniformed guard, grabbing his leather jacket as he sends the polygraph leads flying. He scoops up the two dropped guns as Kiefer explains the situation and leads him into the observation room. Back on the line with Chloe, Kiefer says he and Tony are ready to move. She warns, "Right now you're in the least populated area of the building, but you're going to run into a lot more resistance before you get out of there." Kiefer doesn't seem too daunted by the idea of "resistance," like he's resigned to the idea of shooting his way out. Interesting.
Watching her monitors like an Operator in a Matrixmovie, Chloe guides them into the hallway, then back into hiding as a couple of guys pop out of a nearby elevator and stroll past. While waiting for the coast to clear, Tony apologizes for what he said earlier. "I just needed to get you close enough to get you Bill's code name." Kiefer says he's just glad he didn't break Tony's neck. "You came close," Tony admits, and Kiefer apologizes right back. Just like old times, when they used to alternate between being friends and trying to beat the crap out of each other. At Chloe's signal, they're on the move again at 10:48:40.
