Season overview

Season Three (2003 – 2004) takes place three years after the events shown in Season Two and takes place somewhere between 19 November 2006 and 19 November 2007 (in Episode 3, Kyle's dad states he is 19 years old - at which point CTU pulls up Kyle's driver's license on screen which shows a DOB of 19 November 1987). This is supposed to mean season 2 had to occur between 2003 and 2004, however, based on the first season the second had to happen in September 2005, meaning season 3 would take place in September 2008. Season Two of 24 (aka Day 2) was first broadcast from October 28, 2002 to May 20, 2003. ...


The season's main plot revolves around the threat of biological terrorism—a deadly virus being released in Los Angeles—while President Palmer is visiting to participate in a debate with the chief opponent in his re-election campaign.

Season Three can be broken essentially into three acts (although all three revolve around securing the virus):

  1. CTU must stop a terrorist threat of releasing a deadly virus into the Los Angeles populace if drug kingpin Ramon Salazar is not released from jail.
  2. Jack must intercept the virus as it is sold in a transaction in Mexico.
  3. The real villain of the day is discovered and CTU must stop him from spreading the weaponized virus strain.

Sub-plots

Political

  • President Palmer faces scandal during his re-election campaign involving his official doctor/girlfriend (a civilian whose ex-husband may have 'cooked the books').
  • One of Palmer's major supporters, Alan Milliken, demands that the president remove his brother Wayne Palmer from his staff for committing adultery with Milliken's wife, Julia. Palmer refuses to give in to Milliken's demands, and this results in:
    • President Palmer calling in his ex-wife, Sherry Palmer, who indirectly kills Milliken.
    • The Palmers cover up these events, lying to the police.
    • Palmer's opponent, Senator John Keeler, uses this as leverage against Palmer, offering him the opportunity to withdraw from the election.
    • Julia, near the end of the season, kills Sherry and commits suicide. Unwilling to lie anymore or manipulate the facts to his benefit, Palmer abandons his bid for re-election.

To cook the books is to falsify an account of an event, often a financial one. ...

  • Kim Bauer's consistent attempt to prove herself fully competent for her job despite her father securing her position to keep an eye on her.

Goofs

  • When Jack is flying a helicopter, he flies from the copilot's side (left side) of the cockpit.
  • Nina Myers's passport photo is shown briefly on a CTU screen during this season. The name on the passport is not Nina Myers but Sarah Berkeley, which is the married name of Sarah Clarke, the actress who plays Nina. This might appear to be an editing blooper; however, the events of season 2 make it plausible that Nina's passport would be under a false name and most of the other info in the passport is false.
  • During the Sherry Palmer shooting scene, a crew member's reflection can be seen in the refrigerator door.
  • In the last episode, it is not clear how CTU can pick up a signal from the GPS transmitter embedded in the last detonator while the detonator is underground in the subway.
  • During the last episode when Wayne Palmer is telling the President that he can think of a good story to follow the death of Sherry Palmer and the other girl, Wayne is seen talking to an empty chair (which should have the President in it).
  • During episode 16, after a man at the hotel breaks the window, Michelle fires two shots in the ceiling then proceeds to aim the gun at the man. During this scene the gun is clearly out of bullets in some shots, then loaded again when the camera changes.
