Day 2 starts and ends at 8:00 a.m. In Day 2, approximately 18 months after Season One, Jack is dealing with the death of his wife, Teri Bauer, and the estrangement of his daughter, Kim. Jack is no longer working for CTU, but is forced into action when the White House receives intelligence that a nuclear bomb will be detonated in Los Angeles over the course of the day. President David Palmer counts on Jack as the only man he can trust to find the terrorist cell in possession of the bomb and to stop its detonation. Featuring political and social turmoil, more lives will be at stake as another conspiracy arises regarding a taped conversation about an attack on America, which was uncovered after the bomb crisis.
