"24": Day 8, Hours 17 and 18 Trivia Game | 24 - Season 8

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In the seventeenth hour of Day 8 of "24", terrorist Samir Mehran had survived being shot by Jack Bauer at the scene of President Hassan's murder, but he was given a lethal injection by a paramedic/assassin. For which country was the assassin working?

Answer: Russia

Samir Mehran was the only terrorist to survive the assault, and he was being transferred to CTU for questioning. One of the paramedics quietly injected him and then left the scene, walking past Renee Walker, who appeared to recognize him. As he was driving away, he called Mikhail Novakovich and told him that he (the assassin) was going to deal with Walker, as he recognized her from the time she was with Vladimir Laitanan several years ago.

2. In the seventeenth hour of Day 8 of "24", CTU director Brian Hastings was relieved of command. Who was named as the interim director of CTU?

Answer: Chloe O'Brian

Tim Woods, the Secretary of Homeland Security, dismissed Brian Hastings following President Hassan's death, and Woods personally called Chloe O'Brian to inform her that she would be the interim director. She had to immediately deal with a crisis when Samir Mehran died at the CTU medical facility, despite being expected to survive.

She correctly guessed that he might have been poisoned at the scene of the assault.

3. In the seventeenth hour of Day 8 of "24", President Taylor was ready to call off the peace treaty after President Hassan's death, but Kamistani delegate Jamot made a suggestion. Who agreed to take President Hassan's place?

Answer: Hassan's wife, Dalia

Jamot believed that the Kamistani people would rally around Dalia Hassan. She initially rejected the proposal but quickly agreed after President Taylor convinced her that President Hassan's legacy should be preserved.

4. In the seventeenth hour of Day 8 of "24", the Russians were pulling out of the peace treaty. Who did Ethan Kanin suggest could help with the situation?

Answer: Former President Charles Logan

President Taylor was dismayed that the Russians were pulling out of the treaty; she had accused them as not being enthusiastic supporters in the first place as it would reduce their influence in the region. Ethan Kanin suggested to her that Charles Logan could be of assistance; Logan had maintained his ties to the Russians despite being out of the political arena. Taylor was not happy with the suggestion, but she agreed since the peace treaty was so important to stability in the region.

5. At the end of the seventeenth hour of Day 8 of "24", who died after being shot by a sniper through the window of Jack's apartment?

Answer: Renee Walker

Jack Bauer had left CTU, since he had completed the mission that he had agree to with CTU director Brian Hastings. Renee Walker and he returned to his apartment, and after a bit of hanky-panky, she took a call from Chloe O'Brian, who informed her of Samir Mehran's death. Walker told O'Brian that she thought she had recognized a paramedic at the scene, but before she could tell Bauer, she was shot by the assassin who was stationed across the street. Bauer raced to get her to the hospital, but she died in surgery, resulting in the second silent clock in a row (President Hassan had one last hour).

6. In the eighteenth hour of Day 8 of "24", Jack Bauer went to see Sergei Bazhaev at the Federal Courthouse. What did Bazhaev tell Bauer?

Answer: The Russians had planted Dana Walsh at CTU.

After Renee Walker's death, Chloe O'Brian called Jack Bauer; she told him that Walker believed that Samir Mehran had been killed by one of the Russians she (Walker) had worked with when she was undercover. Bauer wanted to talk with Sergei Bazhaev, since Bazhaev knew the people involved with the Russian mob, and O'Brian told Bauer that Bazhaev was at the Federal Courthouse. Bazhaev gave Bauer information in exchange for protection for his family.

7. In the eighteenth hour of Day 8 of "24", Chloe O'Brian asked Cole Ortiz to be present at an interrogation that Jack Bauer would be conducting. Who was Bauer interrogating for a second time?

Answer: Dana Walsh

After Sergei Bazhaev told Jack Bauer that the Russians had installed Dana Walsh at CTU, Bauer told Chloe O'Brian that he was returning to CTU to interrogate Dana Walsh again. He had previously interrogated her, resulting in an immunity agreement in exchange for helping CTU recover President Omar Hassan.

However, since Hassan died, she lost her immunity and was still in custody at CTU. This time, Bauer wanted to question her regarding the Russians' involvement in Hassan's murder, and O'Brian was concerned that he might "go Jack Bauer" on Walsh, so she asked Cole Ortiz to supervise the interrogation.

8. In the eighteenth hour of Day 8 of "24", the peace conference was about to reconvene with President Omar Hassan's replacement. What did President Taylor find out just before it started?

Answer: The Russians were behind President Hassan's assassination.

Former President Charles Logan had persuaded the Russians to return to the peace conference by threatening to reveal their involvement in Hassan's murder. However, when he found out that Jack Bauer intended to interrogate Dana Walsh, he decided to tell President Taylor about the Russians' involvement so that she could stop the interrogation.

He believed that the peace treaty wouldn't take place if the truth got out, and President Taylor agreed to pursue the treaty rather than the truth, despite Ethan Kanin's objections.

9. In the eighteenth hour of Day 8 of "24", President Taylor made a visit to CTU. What was the purpose of her visit?

Answer: To tell Jack Bauer to stand down

Jack Bauer had been trying to reach President Taylor to ask for another immunity agreement for Dana Walsh in exchange for information on the Russians' involvement in Hassan's murder. President Taylor decided to see him in person instead and to tell him that the investigation would not proceed as it would impede the peace process.

She then told Bauer that he was being taken to McGuire Air Force Base for a debriefing on the operation.

10. In the eighteenth hour of Day 8 of "24", what happened while Jack Bauer was being escorted to McGuire Air Force Base?

Answer: He commandeered the helicopter.

Jack Bauer was not at all pleased with President Taylor's decision to pursue the peace agreement over the truth, nor was he pleased when she told him that he would be taken to McGuire Air Force Base to be debriefed. Chloe O'Brian watched as Bauer was being escorted to the helicopter, and she witnessed him overpower the agents and commandeer the helicopter.

She told him over the radio that she would have to call in fighter planes if he didn't land, but he ignored her.
