At 7:49:06, Aaron and Olivia are out in the open when they spot one of Juma's men in the hallway. Rather than shooting first, Aaron tries diving for some nonexistent cover. They exchange shots, and Juma's soldier dies (only to spawn again elsewhere, no doubt), but Aaron's hit in the right shoulder. Aaron tells Olivia that the shots would have been heard, so it's up to her to send out the signal before someone comes to investigate. He directs her to the adjoining room, where she'll find a flashlight in the bureau. He writes the Morse code for "Code Green" on her hand and sends her on her way. It takes her a while to find the flashlight, but when she does, she hurries to the window. She only gets a few blinks into the message before one of Juma's soldiers grabs her from behind. After being dragged back into the hallway, she shakes her head at Aaron -- who apparently surrendered to the new arrivals without a fight -- before they're both frog-marched back toward the hostage area. Huh, too bad Aaron couldn't walk thirty seconds ago; it might have bought them a little more time if the soldiers hadn't found him lying there in the middle of the hallway. It's 7:50:53, and presumably someone at the command post outside noticed the blinking in the top-floor window and is now running around going, "'Co?' Is there an Agent Co here?
During the commercial break, Kiefer visits the FBI-DC set to let us know that 24 is working on the "climate problem." Thank God.
