[spoil]
At the white house, Admiral Smith is telling Daniels that Russians are in final stages of preparing for the attack. Jack is on the phone with Nadia and Chloe. They are trying to find the Jet Ski and what it is trying to reach. Finnaly, it hits Jack. Phillip owns oil leases. He tells Chloe to check for drilling platforms. She finds an abandoned platform 24 miles to the southwest.
At the platform, Phillip is talking to Josh about how everything he owns, like that platform, will be his one day. Josh doesn't want anything and wants to go to Marilyn. Cheng buts in and also tells Josh that it would be smart to join them in going to China. Cheng and Phillip talk about the sub-circuit board being validated and that in 12 hours, Phillip will be in Beijing.
Back at CTU, Chloe find the platform on Satellite. After using infared, she sees several people. They dispatch Tac Teams to the target. Nadia tells the white house that they found Phillip and are sending in Tac Teams. Admiral Smith suggests sending in an air strike and obliterate the platform, the people, and the circuit board. Karen brings up there Josh in there. And he has a better chance surviving if the Tac Team goes in. Daniels doesn't care and orders for the airstrike.
Bill is being attended to by a medic. Jack tells him the situation and tells him to go back to CTU. Doyle tells Jack that they got orders to stand down from the white house because of the airstrike. Doyle and Jack realize that would kill Josh. Jack convinced Doyle to use the chopper themselves and go in. Doyle aggress and they take off with some guns and grenades. Hurray Doyle. (commercial)
Daniels and Co. get Suvarov on video conference. Daniels tells him to hold off on military action because they have found the Chinese agents and that he ordered a strike to destroy their location. Suvarov thinks Daniels and lying to stall because he did that before. Daniels says they have the chip being sent to their embassy so they can see that its really recovered. Daniels says he's not lying, but that they were able to duplicate the chip and have another copy. After some more chit chat, Suvarov agrees to wait 30 minutes for them to take the Chinese out, or he will have to proceed with his military action.
Jack is called by Chloe and Nadia. They are mad, but agree to help them out and tell them where men are stationed and tell them they have only 18 minutes before the jets attack the rig. Chloe gets up and walks away, but then collapses. Morris helps her up and she says she got dizzy all the sudden. Nadia tells her to go to medical. Jack tells Doyle his plan and setting down the helicopter and taking out the guards.
Cheng gets word that the submarine is 15 minutes away. Cheng tells Phillip. Phillip tells Josh that they are going to China on the sub, but it seems Josh doesn't care anymore. He says he isn't going to fight anymore. Then he asks to talk to Marilyn. Phillip calls her on speaker. Josh tells her that he understands now, how Phillip is right and stuff. She starts to cry. Cheng says they hear a helicopter. Phillip hangs up.
Doyle says there are 13 minutes left until the jets are in range. They start shooting and land the helicopter. They are pinned down. Jack blows this thing up blowing up a few of the shooters. (You know, like at the Airport in season 5, jack is pinned down under a airplane. He shoots a white canister and it blows up the shooters) Some more gunfights. They find Cheng, bleeding from a gunshot wound. They corner him. Jack tells him that they know he has the chip still and they sent jets to take out the place. Jack says he would like nothing more then to kill him, but he will let him go if he tells him where Phillip and Josh are. Cheng doesn't believe Jack, and jumps off the oil rig into the ocean 150 feet below.
I know, I know, horrible death scene for such a character you want to see get manhandled by Jack.
Jack is stunned. Doyle reminds Jack that there is less then 10 minutes left. Commercial.
6 minutes left until jets reach oil rig. Jack finds a building with communication satellites and electricity on. Doyle sees 2 guards hiding to surprise attack them. Jack and Doyle sneak around. Phillip is watching on camera. Someone Chinese speaks on the walkie. They are asking for a "Dragonfly". Phillip responds and says "Dragonfly" is dead, and that 2 Americans attacked them, but are now neutralized. The Chinese sub commander asks for the package. Phillip says he has it. They agree to keep the rendezvous the same.
Phillip and Josh leave the building to another place. Jack and Doyle are trailing nearby, and Jack sees Phillip cross his path behind a weakened fence. Josh follows shortly after. Jack calls out to him and says he will get him out of there. Josh looks at him as Jack is trying to break the fence, but then Josh just keeps going and following Phillip. Jack is like wtf Josh. Phillip hears Jack and shoots over at him and leaves. Jack and Doyle break the fence.
Phillip is trying to lower a boat into the water and asks for help. With his back turned, Josh grabs a pipe and hits Phillip with it and takes his gun. Josh lets him know that he was never going to go with him to China. Phillip is trying to talk sense into Josh, but then Josh shoots Phillip in the shoulder. Josh takes a step forward and before he shoots again, Jack arrives and talks sense into Josh.
While they hug, Phillip climbs/falls down to the deck below. Jack tells Doyle to take Josh to the chopper. Jack quickly catches up to Phillip. Phillip tells Jack to shoot him, but Jack doesn't want to. Jack tells Phillip about a strike being minutes away. Phillip reveals being Josh's father. Phillip tells Jack not to die here, and tells him to go. Jack leaves to the chopper.
Phillip sees the submarine arrives, but also sees two jets coming. Daniels is told the jets are in range and he gives the order to shoot. Doyle is yelling at Jack in the headset asking where he is. The jets shoot the missiles. Jack reaches the platform and dives into the chopper and the missiles hit the oil platform. Doyle takes off just as explosions are going off right behind the chopper and they get away. Then we see the submarine slide back into the water.
Daniels and Suvarov are coming to an agreement that the chip and everyone on the rig has been destroyed. Daniels and Suvarov are sending in divers to find remains of the component (um, yeah right, find a chip in an ocean at night). They end their video conversation, and Karen asks to speak to Daniels and Lennox alone.
Karen wants to resign and wants Daniels to tell the attorney general to exculpate Bill from the Abu Fayed matter so she can take the fall. At first, they both don't want to her doing any of that, but she convinces them to help her sign off on it.
Bill is at CTU medical. Karen calls him. They do some more lovin' talk. Nothing important. Then Karen tells him that he wont need to deal with the Fayed thing, but doesn't tell him that it is because she resigned. She tells him she'll be coming to LA soon to see him.
Chloe and Morris are in another medical room waiting for the doctor to come in and let them know why she fainted. To her and Morris' surprise, the doctor tells her that she in pregnant. They hug, and we go to the final commercial of the season.
Doyle, Jack, and Josh arrive at CTU. Nadia tells them that divers found fragments of the circuit board. Josh and Jack go to see Marilyn. Josh and his mom talk. Jack tells Josh to be checked out in medical.
Marilyn says it its possible, she would like to pick up where they left off in the past. She is about to tell Jack who Josh's real father is, but Jack tells her he already knows. It wasn't exactly rape. She says she can't explain it, but he didn't force himself on her. Jack says no need to explain and that it will take a long time before he can try again with anyone. She says except with Audrey? Jack looks away. She says however long it takes, she'll be waiting. (I don't know Audrey's fate, that's all I have on her)
Doyle and Nadia are talking. Doyle says he's interested in going out with her, and she agrees. Nadia says "There's something I have to do, first. Milo left a mother and a younger sister... They haven't been told yet. I thought I'd do it in person. It's the least I can do..." Milo...Dies? Then text says that "Milo's ghost prevents a kiss for now, but their eyes affirm their growing attraction."
Morris and Chloe are talking about the baby and see Jack walk by and tell him the good news. Morris asks for advice on parenthood, and Jack replies with "Don't be afraid to let it change you." Jack walks over to the next medical room and talks to Bill.
Bill asks Jack what he's going to do from here. Jack says he's not sure, but whatever it is, it wont be at CTU. Karen calls Bill and Jack gives him his privacy.
Now Jack is walking through CTU. The show wants to point out Jack seeing everyone being together. Chloe is with Morris. Doyle is with Nadia. Buchanan is on the phone with Karen. But Jack is all alone. Jack walks outside. We watch him walk down the street and down an alleyway.
Jack hears a gun being chambered and freezes. Then someone says "Step into the alley. Slowly. Keep your hands behind your head. Turn around, very slowly." Jack turns around, and registers pure shock as the script says.
The person lowers HIS gun and smiles a little. There is a car parked next to him. The person says "Get in, Jack. There's a lot I have to tell you." Jack gets in and the car peels out.
End of season.
So now we know it's a man and they're pointing their gun at Jack. Not likely Logan then.
