Season Overview
Season Four is set 18 months after Season Three. Jack is now working for Secretary of Defense James Heller after being fired by CTU due to his heroin addiction. As the day begins, he gets caught up in an elaborate terrorist plot which involves James Heller and his daughter Audrey Raines.
Unlike previous seasons, which focused on a singular threat, multiple enemies, and conspiracies, this season is based around one main enemy: a terrorist named Habib Marwan who controls a series of Middle Eastern terrorist cells that launch attacks against the United States. Rather than three large acts, this season is divided into several smaller acts depending on what terrorist threat Marwan came up with.
- The kidnapping and planned broadcast of the execution of the Secretary of Defense.
- Nuclear power plants across America are sent into a forced meltdown.
- Terrorists steal a stealth fighter to shoot down Air Force One.
- Jack and Marwan scramble to get ahold of the nuclear football.
- The terrorists steal and launch a nuclear missile.

Famous quotes containing the word season:
“To the American People:MChristmas is not a time or a season but a state of mind. To cherish peace and good will, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have the real spirit of Christmas. If we think on these things, there will be born in us a Savior and over us will shine a star sending its gleam of hope to the world.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
