One wrong thing and this whole place

fills up full of contaminated air.

Then instead of just killing

one of them, we all die.

We'll just have to make sure

nothing happens.

Can you hear me?

All right.

- Bauer...

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, hugs and kisses.

Good luck, all that.

- Oh, sh*t!

- What? What is it?

- A dead body. A soldier.

- Ours or theirs?

I can't tell.

Lucky he didn't shoot out

the airlock door.

Better luck in the next life.

Come on, buddy, you're wasting air.

I'm waiting on the air filters.

Okay.

- Wish me luck.

- Good luck.

Okay.

Find anything good out there?

Just dust. Blue dust. It's everywhere.

Yeah, that's the airborne contaminant.

You got 31 minutes left, buddy.

If you're not back soon,

I'll see you in six months.

Trying to move people

as quickly as possible...

but there are rumours that

these public shelters are not safe...

against these chemical weapons.

Oh, hey. I got you.

Yeah, I see you on one of the monitors.

You're right, those old cameras

still work. Give me a thumbs-up.

All right, cool, keep moving.

All right, I'm just trying to figure out

where the hell you're going.

I think I've found it.

Oh, you were right.

It's stuck.

Come on, you big sissy. Give it a push.

I'm in.

All right, say hi

to the ABC people for me.

- Bauer?

- Yeah.

I think we got a problem.

It's not working.

- Did the green light come on?

- No, nothing's working.

Looks like you're locked out, buddy.

Hello! Hey!

Hey, stop, stop, you're wasting air.

Well, I was hoping somebody

could hear me.

Oh, sh*t, what do we do now?

Sit tight, buddy, I'm working on it.

Don't give up.

What if he's right?

What if there's no future?

You've always found a way for us.

I'd lose my mind without you.

Hey, buddy.

I think I found a way around it

but you're not gonna like it.

Just tell me.

Back the way you came, about ten yards.

- What am I looking for?

- You'll know it when you see it.

- You're joking.

- Nope.

There's no room up there.

Come on, buddy, I've crawled through

the exact same air ducts in our place.

If I can do it, you can do it.

Is there any other way?

Well, if you want those guys

to help you, that's your way in.

Come on, it's a good way

to cure your claustrophobia.

All right. I'm going in.

I'm coming to an intersection.

Which way?

Left takes you back here, so go right,

right into their main ventilation system.

- You okay, buddy?

- Yeah.

- This place is full of dead people.

- Which way are they headed?

Are they facing the same direction

you're going?

I can't tell.

- The good news is, they didn't break in.

- What?

If they died out there, then the main

ventilation system is still sealed.
