But Kiefer isn't taking any chances. He dials his own cell phone as the final splitscreen begins. In other windows, Olivia scowls; Walker sits in holding; and Moss, kneeling over the body of Senator Mayer, says to his walkie-talkie, "Janis, it's Larry. We got here too late. Bauer murdered Senator Mayer." Janis takes over Olivia's splitscreen window as Moss tells her to escalate the search. "At this point, orders are to shoot on sight." Oh, and someone had better cancel that subcommittee hearing that was scheduled for tomorrow morning. Tell C-SPAN to rerun Book TV or something.
Tony's sitting at an outdoor restaurant table somewhere when his phone rings. He springs up to get in his car as he answers it, telling Kiefer that he's been monitoring the FBI and wondering what's going on. Kiefer wants Tony to meet him at the Port of Alexandria. "I need you to bring a weapons and a surveillance package. Get there as soon as possible." Tony tells Kiefer to wait, possibly so he can ask where he's supposed to get a weapons and a surveillance package at this hour. "I can't," Kiefer interrupts. "I'll get back to you as soon as I'm on the road." With that, he hangs up, pulls the screwdriver out of Quinn's chest, sticks the gory tool into the ignition lock on that SUV, and drives off through the other site's locked gates and into 10:00:00. Good thing there are two gates into this place, or Kiefer wouldn't have had anything left to crash through.
