The fifth season of the real-time television series 24 was first broadcast in the USA from January to May 2006, in Germany, Austria and Switzerland between November 2006 and February 2007. With a total of twelve nominations and five prizes for a Primetime Emmy Award , it is the The only season of the series that was awarded an Emmy for Best Drama Series and won an Emmy for the lead actor Kiefer Sutherland .

Playing for 24 consecutive hours, the season is essentially about nerve gas terrorist attacks in the Los Angeles area and the investigation by the state anti-terrorist unit CTU into stopping the terrorists, who are Russian separatists , and their employers to investigate. In the course of the first third of the season it emerges that a group of American lobbyists who want to protect the United States' oil interests in Asia leaked the nerve gas to the terrorists who originally intended to use it on Russian soil . Because the former US President Palmer learned of the lobbyists' plan, he was murdered on their behalf at the beginning of the season. It also turns out that the lobbyists are supported not only by the Chief of Staff of the White House , but also by US President Logan. The last third of the season revolves mainly around CTU agent Jack Bauer's efforts to secure a confession from the president to his guilt for Palmer's death.

Prequel

The untitled prequel is an approximately 10-minute short film directed by Jon Cassar and Joseph A. Hodges , which has been set since the end of season four and has been released on the Internet and on DVD in preparation for the fifth season. It was sponsored by Toyota . It begins with one of the last scenes of the fourth season, during which Bauer is on the phone with Palmer, who thanks him for his work. A year later, Chloe O'Brien meets with Bauer in an industrial area in Chicago and tells him that someone has illegally opened Bauer's autopsy report on her computer. She expresses concern that the person in question has found out that Jack is not actually dead and advises him to leave town. At the end of the meeting, Bauer is watched by a motorcyclist and followed by a BMW in his Toyota for several minutes before the chaser in the car appears to die in a collision with a forklift .

action

The action takes place 18 months after the fourth season , starts at 7 a.m. and lasts until 7 a.m. the following day.

History and initial situation

Eighteen months ago, the then head of CTU's secret operations division, Jack Bauer, faked his death with the help of his colleagues and friends Michelle Dessler, Tony Almeida and Chloe O'Brian, as well as ex-US President David Palmer in order to assassinate him to escape through a secret service agent. This was ordered by Walt Cummings, Chief of Staff of the White House , with the later approval of US President Charles Logan as an alternative to Bauer's extradition to China so as not to strain the US diplomatic relations with China. With a new identity and obviously without any other person being aware of it, Bauer left the environment he lived in at that time. He now lives under the name Frank Flynn with his partner Diane Huxley and their teenage son Derek in Mojave near Los Angeles .

A summit meeting between Logan and his Russian counterpart Yuri Suvarov is planned for this day near LA in order to ratify an anti-terror alliance between Russia and the USA . Both presidents regard the alliance as the high point of their tenure.

7 a.m. to 12 p.m.

Jean Smart , starring First Lady Martha Logan

Shortly after 7 a.m., David Palmer was shot dead by a sniper at his brother Wayne's LA apartment . A few minutes later, a car bomb tears Michelle Dessler to her death, and her husband Tony is seriously injured. Since O'Brian, who is already being pursued, now also sees herself on the hit list, she turns to Bauer for help and meets with him. Bauer has forced Derek, who is suspicious of Jack's identity, with him. Palmer's murderer and his accomplices continue to try to murder Chloe and Jack and are killed by them in the process. Beforehand, Bauer learns from Palmer's murderer that the attacks on the lives of Dessler, Almeida and O'Brien are part of a plan to pin the murder of Palmer on Bauer and that he does not know who the commissioners were. By means of a fake surveillance video, the CTU assumes that Bauer is Palmer's killer.

In Logan's refuge in Hidden Valley near LA, there is fear of an attack on Suvarov because of Palmer's murder. President Charles Logan pays no heed to his wife Martha's statement that she spoke to her friend Palmer on the phone the previous day about a national security matter. With an audio recording secretly manipulated by Cummings, he proves to her that Martha is only imagining it because she has not taken medication.

With Wayne and Chloe's help, Bauer discovers the name of Chevensky, who works at Los Angeles-Ontario Airport, in David's files . Because Chloe, who is now missing from CTU, is arrested, Jack and Derek manage to escape from the heavily guarded building where Palmer was murdered. In a terminal at the airport, Chevensky evaded his interrogation by Bauer shortly before 9 a.m. by suicide . At the same moment, terrorists dressed in explosive vests occupy the terminal and take over 60 people hostage, including Derek. Bauer can avoid being taken hostage. At this moment Suvarov lands unscathed in Hidden Valley, the refuge of US President Logan, which dispels the security forces' fears that an assassination attempt on Suvarov is planned for this moment. Cummings and the terrorists in the airport act - still without the knowledge of Jack and the authorities - instructed by their backer James Nathanson over the phone.

As the leader of the terrorists, who are Russian separatists , Anton Beresch demands from Logan and Suvarov that they publicly revoke the agreement, threatening them with the death of the hostages. Beresh executes a hostage, televised, as a demonstration. With the help of Chloe, who is now back at CTU, Jack manages to detonate one of the terrorists' explosives vest remotely and thus thwart Derek's execution. Shortly afterwards, because Beresch learned of Bauer's support for CTU and his acquaintance with Derek through Nathanson, he forced Bauer to surrender to him by threatening Derek's murder again. As the only one in CTU, Regional Director McGill recognizes Bauer's message as coded, so that at the moment the agreement was signed and shortly before the other hostages were executed, the CTU managed to storm the terminal without being ambushed. Beresch and his accomplices die in the process.

The CTU is now looking for the man Ivan Erwich, who was among the hostages but not yet identified by it, to whom Beresch, observed by Bauer, had slipped a chip card kept by Chevensky . Erwich uses this in a hangar at the airport that has not yet been monitored by the investigative authorities to open a container with nerve gas , which he and his accomplices take out of the airport and have them handed over for onward transport to Moscow , where the terrorists plan to use the gas for an attack use. A little later, the CTU found residues of the nerve gas in the hangar, which the authorities identified as weapons-grade, highly lethal Sentox VI nerve gas.

Meanwhile, the first lady gets a transcript of her phone call with Palmer to prove she wasn't wrong. To protect himself and Nathanson, Walt Cummings ambushes her from behind and temporarily stuns her, steals the recording and leaves Martha Logan passed out. Charles still considers her reference to Palmer's warning to be imaginary and therefore wants to send her again to a psychiatric ward in Vermont .

Meanwhile, Bauer has returned to CTU, believed to be dead until recently. There he and Audrey Raines, who works for the CTU as a representative of the Pentagon , realize that they still love each other, and Audrey forgives Jack Bauer for the death of her husband Paul, which he contributed to. Because Nathanson sees Bauer as a serious threat, Cummings has a man smuggled into CTU through CTU employee Spenser Wolff, who is also Chloe's lover, in order to carry out an assassination attempt on Bauer. Bauer defends himself and kills Cummings hit man. Confronted with the attempted murder, Wolff admits at CTU that he was recruited by Cummings and only for duty-supervision-related duties. The CTU therefore assumes that Palmer was murdered on Cummings' orders.

12 p.m. to 5 p.m.

With the aim of proving Cummings 'guilt, Bauer goes to Hidden Valley, where he is arrested by the Secret Service on Cummings' behalf . To protect himself and Nathanson, as well as to forestall an accusation by Bauer, Cummings admits to the president his involvement in the terrorist activities of the separatists. The secret organization, headed by Nathanson and controlling the trigger mechanism on the gas canisters, had a plan to let the separatists smuggle the nerve gas into Russia in the belief that they would use it against Russia. The plan was to release the gas via satellite as soon as it arrived at the terrorist base. The intention was to provide the United States with evidence of the existence of weapons of mass destruction in Central Asia and thus provide the pretext to increase its military presence in the region in order to secure long-term oil supplies for the US population. Because Palmer learned of the plan, the organization killed him.

Shortly thereafter, with the help of the Secret Service agent Aaron Pierce, to whom Martha reported her suspicions, Bauer arrives at Logan's office, who is shocked by Cummings' confessions. By torturing Cummings in the presence of Logan, Bauer reveals that the nerve gas is in an ISO container in the port of Long Beach . Special forces commissioned immediately find the container shortly before 1 p.m. without the gas containers, but with the body of the man Schaeffer commissioned by Cummings. Erwich had previously caught this while changing the access codes on the gas containers. Because the seaports are now closed and Erwich can no longer bring the nerve gas to Russia, he plans to use it against the United States on their soil.

Bauer sees his work done now that Palmer's killer has been determined and therefore wants to go into hiding again. In recognition of his services to the United States, he lets Logan persuade him to continue working until the terrorist threat is over. Now that Charles sees Martha's suspicions confirmed, he prevents her from leaving for Vermont. Shortly before 2 p.m. Cummings arrested by the Secret Service is found strangled . To protect the reputation of the US government, Charles and Novick want to keep his death and his involvement in the terrorist acts secret from the public for the time being. Only with contempt for Charles in this regard, Martha complies with the plan.

McGill's clumsy, drug addict sister Jenny has him ambushed in front of the CTU building on the pretext of her boyfriend, who also steals the key card that allows McGill to enter CTU. Without reporting the incident, McGill continues to work at CTU.

Using information from a tapped phone call by Erwich, the CTU arrests the software developer Rossler, who reprogrammed the microchips in the detonators for Erwich. Because Rossler is shot dead by a woman he has raped, Bauer poses as Rossler to the separatists. In this role, he brings one of the chips to them, but is caught by them and taken to a test to check the functionality of the detonator. To locate Erwich and the remaining nerve gas containers, President Logan and CTU Regional Director McGill order Bauer to help the terrorists test the reprogrammed detonator by having him and Erwich's accomplices set the gas off in a mall . By sabotaging the execution of orders, Bauer can limit the amount of gas released and thus the death toll to 11 and kill one of Erwich's accomplices. When the other accomplice, who soon became aware of his pursuers from CTU, commits suicide shortly afterwards, the CTU once again loses track of Erwich and the remaining gas.

Vladimir Bierko, the leader of the Russian separatists, kills Erwich, also because of the non-agreed use of nerve gas in the shopping center, and also has Nathanson killed as a traitor. However, shortly before his death, Bauer receives a data carrier with state-encrypted information from Nathanson, who is looking for protection and wants to prevent the use of gas on American soil. These lead Jack to the headquarters of Omicron International, which once developed the gas for the US military, and to ex-CTU employee Christopher Henderson, who was involved in the research and with whom Jack once fell out. Henderson fails to kill Bauer in a research bunker on the company's premises using a remote-controlled bomb.

Because he wants President Suvarov's death, Bierko forces US President Logan to give the route of Suvarov's motorcade, threatening to release the nerve gas. Protesting against her husband's decision, the First Lady Martha Logan rides in the Suvarovs limousine. Beside himself with anger and worry about Martha, Charles fails to warn the column and bring Martha back. He kneels and prays with Novick.

Meanwhile, McGill, put under pressure by Logan to succeed, has arranged for Bauer's arrest at CTU. Because Raines and Buchanan, supported by O'Brien, betray him and continue to help Bauer, McGill has Buchanan arrested. After McGill, who wants to limit CTU's work to the search for the terrorists, also disregarded indications of a possible attack on the motorcade with his increasingly authoritarian behavior, he is deposed as CTU director in a fast-track procedure initiated by Audrey and Curtis, arrested and replaced by Buchanan. Therefore, CTU can warn the Russian President's column at the last second. This also makes the Suvarov and Martha survive among others by shelling and flamethrower carried out attack on their car, the attackers die.

5 p.m. to midnight

Martha, shaken by her husband's behavior, tells Pierce that Charles passed on the route. Planning an attack on CTU, Bierko had a nerve gas container set up in a LA hospital to distract the authorities. Using information that one of the dead terrorists had with him, the CTU was able to find the container before the gas was released and thus thwart the attack. In the meantime, Bierko has become known to CTU as the leader of the terrorists through information from other authorities. Despite the use of torture, Bauer and CTU are unable to persuade Henderson, who leaked the nerve gas to the terrorists, to divulge information on how to find Bierkos. In the meantime, Jack's daughter Kim has arrived at CTU and only now finds out that her father is still alive.

Meanwhile, Bierko's accomplice Ostroff procures the stolen key card from McGill's sister and her friend Dwayne, both of whom he murders. With the card in the CTU LA, Ostroff puts a nerve gas container in place in the ventilation system. Informed of the two murders only a few minutes before the gas was released, McGill only now announces the theft of the card, so that the infiltration of the building is noticed and the evacuation begins. Jack can kill Ostroff before he and his colleagues and Kim get to safety from the gas in the conference room shortly before 7 p.m. Edgar and over 50 other employees die from the gas. Because the seals on the shelters are beginning to corrode from the gas and the building cannot be decontaminated in time, people in the infirmary and the other shelters are in danger of dying within 15 minutes, including Raines, O'Brian and the Bauers. To reactivate the air conditioning and save these people, McGill sacrifices his life by crossing the contaminated zone.

Tony Almeida, recently awakened from anesthesia, is overwhelmed and injured so badly in his revenge for Michelle's murder-driven attempt to kill Henderson that Henderson escapes from CTU and Tony is pronounced dead shortly afterwards.

US Vice President Hal Gardner convinced Charles Logan fact preemptively that in the greater LA martial law to be imposed. In order not to have to involve Congress in the decision, Gardner has the President officially announce the measure as a militarily monitored curfew . Novick and Martha fear that Gardner is planning to overthrow the president. Gardner also has CTU LA put under the direction of Homeland Security , which is represented at CTU by Karen Hayes, because of its great losses . Meanwhile, Wayne Palmer meets with Aaron Pierce near the presidential refuge and survives murder attempts commissioned by Henderson.

Bierko wants to let the remaining nerve gas flow out of a gas works into private households. In preparation he obtained information with the help of Collette Stengers, against which the CTU, based on information from Henderson's computer, is already investigating. Bauer lets her alleged lover, an undercover BND agent, hand over the woman by setting a trap for him. As part of a Henderson-instigated plan to divert CTU, Stenger allegedly confesses that Audrey put her in touch with Bierko. Confronted by Jack, Audrey merely admits to a one-night stand with Cummings. Bauer breaks off Audrey's torture when he notices the diversionary maneuver. With the help of a statement made by Stengers, the CTU became aware of the target of the attack. On arrival at the gas works, the CTU cannot prevent the nerve gas from flowing out of the containers, but with a targeted detonation at the last minute it can ensure that it does not leave the works but burns. Bierko is seriously injured and arrested by CTU.

Meanwhile, Henderson has taken Amy, daughter of Martha's assistant Evelyn Martin, hostage to blackmail Evelyn into handing over a recording of a phone call between Charles and Henderson. The phone call is Wayne's reason to see Evelyn, and proves that Charles is the principal of Henderson and Cummings. By shooting at Henderson after Amy's handover, Wayne and the farmer, whom he trusts, prevent Henderson from finding out about the safe deposit box in which the phone call is kept. Meanwhile, Charles hides his involvement in the terrorist attacks against Martha, Gardner and Hayes. Bauer and Wayne break into the bank and secure the recording of the telephone call, which Henderson's accomplices, besieging the bank, want to take away from them. By driving them into a firefight with the police and military, Bauer escapes with Wayne and the evidence.

In order to advance Gardner's instruction to take over CTU by Homeland, Hayes, forced by her assistant Miles Papazian, has Buchanan deliberately discredited so that he is fired, and most of the remaining CTU employees are replaced by Homeland employees. Buchanan's dismissal takes advantage of Audrey to keep Chloe working for her to support Jack. After Bauer learns the incriminating information, Charles orders Hayes to arrest and arrest Bauer, allegedly as the culprit for David's murder. In order to be led to Bauer, Hayes has Audrey monitored, who, however, without Hayes' knowledge and with Chloe sabotaging the surveillance, goes to an airfield to meet her father, US Secretary of Defense James Heller.

0 to 7 a.m.

Audrey and Jack inform Heller of the contents of the phone call so that he can let the Attorney General investigate the President. Concerned about the possible loss of reputation of the US government, Heller instead confronts Charles personally with the incriminating information in order to force him to resign silently. Henderson briefly takes Audrey hostage and thus appropriates the phone recording again, which is why Charles ignores the resignation and sends Heller away again because of unproven allegations. After Chloe's support for Audrey is noticed and she was arrested for this, she escapes from CTU to Buchanan's home, with which she continues to support Jack. After Hayes learns of Logan's involvement in the terrorist attacks, she warns Buchanan and Chloe that she has arranged for both of them to be arrested so that Chloe can escape. From a hotel lobby and supported by Hayes, she provides Bauer with information.

The president leaves no stone unturned to keep his involvement in Palmer's death a secret. In this regard, he is advised by telephone by the lobbyist Graem, who represents a consortium of lobbyists who have been cooperating with Charles since he took office 18 months ago and who are also concerned with US oil interests. Having become suspicious of Aaron Pierce's disappearance, secretly initiated by Charles, her husband informs Martha about his involvement in Palmer's death and threatens him again with admission to a psychiatric hospital if she passes this information on. By hinting at this information, Martha confirms Novick's distrust of Charles' secretive behavior.

Henderson, charged with the murder of Bauer by Charles, gives the recording to a co-pilot for his protection before he is picked up by Bauer and Manning and arrested. While in custody, Henderson tries to obtain his release by threatening the murder of Heller by his accomplices. He thwarted his murder by attempting suicide by rushing his car into a body of water. Supported by telephone from Chloe, Bauer smuggles himself aboard the fully occupied passenger plane that takes off with the owner of the recording on board around 2 a.m. Chloe only identifies the copilot as this shortly before 3 a.m. so that Bauer can appropriate the recording. At Graem's urgent advice, Charles orders the aircraft to be shot down by an F / A-18 fighter. By swooping farmer and the co-pilot can thwart the launch of the machine; they land on a highway . With Curtis Manning's help, Bauer smuggles the recording past Logan's targeted military to CTU, where Chloe prepares it for presentation to the Attorney General.

Charles, fearful of his imminent arrest because of the securing of the admission, abandons his suicide attempt, which Graem had advocated, when the Papazian, who is hoping for a career jump, contacts him. With Charles' promise to find him a position in the White House , Papazian secretly and permanently deletes the recording. Charles sees himself strengthened by this and cancels the arrest warrant against Bauer so that he can get Bauer out of the way. The latter, Charles orders the Secret Service agent Adams, who is loyal to him, also with regard to Bauer's confidante Pierce. Martha thwarted the murder of Pierce by shooting Adams with his weapon. Pierce and Martha trust Novick, who then smuggles Pierce and Adams' body off the premises.

While Bierko is being transported from CTU to a maximum security prison , his accomplices free him. They use the last nerve gas canister together to kill the Russian-US-American crew of a Russian military submarine that is anchored in the port of Los Angeles and whose twelve cruise missiles they want to shoot down at civilian US targets. Despite Jack's appeal, Henderson was given impunity for helping CTU find Bierkos. Henderson Bauer also informs about the lobbyist group's involvement in Logan's illegal activities, but without naming them. Bauer can kill the terrorists, including Bierko, in the submarine and, with Henderson's help, cancel the rocket launch sequence. When Henderson points his gun, secretly unloaded by Bauer, at Bauer, he is shot by Bauer as punishment for his involvement in the murder of Palmer, Dessler and Almeida.

In order to obtain a confession from Charles for his involvement in Palmer's death, Bauer, supported by Novick, Pierce and Martha, pretends to be the pilot of the Marine One helicopter that takes Charles to the airfield where the ex-president was transferred Palmer's corpse a funeral ceremony takes place. He kidnaps Charles briefly, interrogates him - also to reveal the names of his co-conspirators - but unsuccessfully. Therefore Martha coaxes a confession from him, which is recorded by Chloe about the bug hidden from Bauer . With the confession, the attorney general has Charles taken away from the Secret Service immediately. While he was still on the industrial site where he had interrogated Charles, Bauer was kidnapped on behalf of Zheng Chi, the security chief of the Chinese consulate in LA, on a Chinese cargo ship on its way to China.

Reviews

The fifth season was largely positively rated in the USA and praised as "one of the best". You have shown a "high point of intrigue and indecision in the White House". The season includes an "entertaining plot, unpredictable twists and turns and surprisingly few filler scenes" and works so well because the threats are "more terrifying" and varied more than ever, even if some were borrowed from previous seasons. Christopher Henderson is "thankfully not just a psychopath who is happy behind a wall of monitors", but despite his few appearances he is developing into a "multi-layered" and "memorable" figure. The series is still fascinating in its fifth season, above all because it offers "full action every second", because it does not shrink from dying popular figures and letting villains escape, and because - in contrast to German crime novels - everyone is suspect, not to be who he claims to be.

The Business Week found that Gregory Itzin 've played the (Vice) President Charles Logan "delicious" and "none" was in his role as a "scoundrel, dub and treacherous schemer". Itzin's achievement was also recognized by Spiegel online , because Logan was "portrayed by him with paradoxical virtuosity as a rock-hard wimp". The New York Times , according to Logan was "irresistible as nagging, cowardly commander" who manipulates his wife.

Jean Smart's portrayal of Logan's wife Martha also received praise. Jean Smart, according to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer , let viewers sympathize with Martha's frustration, which she never emphasizes too much. The New Yorker found Smart's acting "terrific". The USA Today pointed out that Smart her First Lady Martha had made "strange, frightening and sympathetic".

Awards
