Tranquilizer gun "Day 1: 12:00am-1:00am" TRANQUILIZER GUN
A tranquilizer gun is a weapon which fires a poisoned or medicinal dart into a body, rendering the victim unconscious for a period of time.

In order to buy himself time to acquire blackmail information, Jack Bauer shot George Mason in the leg with a tranquilizer gun and laid his unconscious body on the sofa in his office.

Homing device "Day 1: 1:00am-2:00am" HOMING DEVICE
A homing device uses mobile positioning technology to locate items with a tracking chip.

Bridgit used a homing device to locate Martin Belkin’s ID, which Mandy buried in the Mojave Desert.

Optical scanner "Day 1: 2:00am-3:00am" OPTICAL SCANNER
An optical scanner is a device that scans information printed on paper and translates it into a digital format, which a computer can read and analyze.

After cutting off an assassin's thumb, Jack used an optical scanner in his car to send the thumbprint to CTU for identification.

Encryption "Day 1: 3:00am-4:00am" ENCRYPTION
Encryption is a method of securing an electronic or digital message using codes, so that the message can only be read by someone with the corresponding decryption "key", which decodes the message.

Jack gave an encrypted key card with information related to the assassination attempt on Senator David Palmer to Jamey Farrell to decrypt and analyze.

Phone tapping "Day 1: 4:00am-5:00am" PHONE TAPPING
Phone tapping uses electronic surveillance to monitor incoming and outgoing calls on a particular phone number, record conversations for playback and analysis, and trace the origin of calls.

As Jack and Greg Penticoff headed back towards the pay phone at 18166 San Fernando Road, Jack called Nina at CTU and asked her to set up a phone tap to trace the call and record the conversation. The phone tap was useless, however, because a cellular phone had been hidden in the phone booth.

Microtransmitter telephones "Day 1: 5:00am-6:00am" MICROTRANSMITTER TELEPHONES
Microtransmitter telephones are earpiece devices that serve as a two-way communication. The internal microphone that is built into the earpiece uses the vibration of the ear and jawbone while speaking to pick up the user's voice with perfect clarity.

After Ira Gaines directed Jack to a car in the hospital parking lot, he told Jack to put a microtransmitter phone in his ear and drop his cellular phone out of the car window. Once the device was securely in Jack's ear, Gaines could hear everything that Jack said and could communicate directly with Jack.

Flak jackets "Day 1: 6:00am-7:00am" FLAK JACKETS
Flak jackets are jackets made using Kevlar fibers, the fibers from which bulletproof vests are made.

When Nina confronted Jack about switching the key card that Milo was analyzing, Ira Gaines told Jack to get Nina out of the building. Knowing that he was being watched on the CTU surveillance cameras, Jack pointed a gun at Nina and handed her a jacket. He escorted her to a car and drove to an industrial park, where he shot her twice in the chest. Nina fell down an embankment, but survived the shooting, because the jacket that Jack gave her was actually a flak jacket.

Wireless handheld devices "Day 1: 7:00am-8:00am" WIRELESS HANDHELD DEVICES
Wireless Handheld Devices are electronic devices that allow a user to have phone and wireless internet access, two-way text messaging, personal organizing and email capabilities.

Jamey Farrell used a wireless handheld device to communicate secretly with Ira Gaines. To contact Gaines, Jamey hid in a stall in the women's restroom at CTU Los Angeles and corresponded with him only through text messaging.

U.S. Secret Service "Day 1: 8:00am-9:00am" U.S. SECRET SERVICE
The U.S. Secret Service is a government agency assigned to protect the President, Vice President, Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates and nominees, as well as their spouses, and their children.

After Jack appeared to be a threat to Senator David Palmer during the breakfast at the San Clarita power plant,he was apprehended by the Secret Service. Another team of Secret Service agents escorted Senator and Mrs. Palmer out of the power plant and to their motorcade.

Wireless tracing and privacy "Day 1: 9:00am-10:00am" WIRELESS TRACING AND PRIVACY
Wireless Tracing and Privacy refers to the new technology put in place by the Federal Communications Commission that requires wireless service providers be able to deliver the cell phone user's number and cell-site location information to a public safety agency in case a caller does not know their location during an emergency.

After swiping Eli's cell phone, Teri Bauer placed a call to CTU Los Angeles for help. Eli and Rick walked into the room where Teri and Kim were being held to look for the phone, so Teri hid the phone in the rafters. Milo attempted to trace Teri's location using the call, but Eli found the phone before Milo could confirm the exact location.

Microtech H.A.L.O. II knife "Day 1: 10:00am-11:00am" MICROTECH H.A.L.O. II KNIFE
A Microtech H.A.L.O. II knife is an automatic knife with a 4" blade that springs out of the front of the knife.

While Jack was driving Ted Cofell to a pre-arranged meeting with a man named Kevin Carroll, Cofell pulled out a hidden Microtech H.A.L.O. II knife. When they arrived at a parking garage, Jack got in the backseat to wait with Cofell, who drew the knife and lunged at Jack. Jack wrestled the knife away, and Cofell cursed at him in Serbian.

Global Positioning System "Day 1: 11:00am-12:00pm" GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM
The Global Positioning System, or GPS, is the network of 24 satellites orbiting the Earth. GPS is used to provide anyone with a receiver (such as a handheld device), the ability to compute and download their location on the planet, including latitude, longitude, and altitude, to within a few hundred feet.

Jack asked Nina to use GPS to get satellite photos of Gaines' compound and download them to his handheld device so that he would know the layout of the compound before infiltrating the area to save his family.

Belgrade "Day 1: 12:00pm-1:00pm" BELGRADE
Belgrade, or Beograd, is a city in southeast Europe in the Balkan Peninsula. Although Belgrade is the capital and largest city of Serbia and Yugoslavia, Kosovo (a province of Serbia) is considered to be the core of the former Yugoslavia.

When Tony and Nina questioned Jamey Farrell's mother, Erica Vasquez, about the large sums of money in her bank account, Mrs. Vasquez claimed that she didn't know where the money came from. Upon further investigation, they discovered that the funds had been transferred from a holding company based in Belgrade. Nina remembered that Jack suspected a possible connection to Belgrade based on a previous assignment.

Ultrasound "Day 1: 1:00pm-2:00pm" ULTRASOUND
An ultrasound, sometimes also referred to as ultrasonography, is a diagnostic medical imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the fetus, muscles, tendons, and many internal organs.

After she and Kim were taken to a medical clinic for an thorough examination, Teri Bauer spoke to Dr. Kent about the sharp pain in her abdomen, and Dr. Kent conducted an ultrasound. Before Teri, Kim, and Nina left for the safehouse, Dr. Kent told Teri that her ultrasound showed the remnants of a small follicular cyst that had burst. She also gave Teri a home pregnancy test.

MI5 "Day 1: 2:00pm-3:00pm" MI5
MI5, also known as Military Intelligence Section 5, was founded in 1909 and known as the Secret Service Bureau. The organization became known as MI5 in 1916. MI5 is the British counterpart to the CIA, but the civillian organization is strictly an intelligence agency. MI5 agents do not have the authority to detain or arrest people. MI5 focuses on internal security, while MI6 focuses on external security.

While searching for information relevant to the attempted assassination of Senator Palmer, Robert Ellis hacked into a file on the MI5 server and sent it to Milo Pressman, who printed it out and gave copies to Senator Palmer and Jack. The file contained two Operation Nightfall casualties that Jack and Senator Palmer had not previously been aware of - Victor Drazen's wife and daughter.

The Griffith Observatory "Day 1: 3:00pm-4:00pm" THE GRIFFITH OBSERVATORY
The Griffith Observatory is a Los Angeles landmark founded in 1935. The observatory sits on the southern slope of Mount Hollywood, overlooking the Los Angeles basin.

Keith Palmer met with Carl Webb at the Griffith Park Observatory to discuss the murder of Dr. George Ferragamo. Keith secretly taped the conversation, and Senator Palmer later handed the tape over to the authorities.

Fiber optics "Day 1: 4:00pm-5:00pm" FIBER OPTICS
Fiber Optics, or optical fibers, are long, hollow, thin, transparent fibers made of glass that are used to transmit light over a distance. The glass fibers, which are approximately the diameter of human hairs, are coated in two layers of plastic, which create a perfect mirror inside the fiber.

CTU used fiber optics for surveillance when a member of Senator Palmer's advance team, Elizabeth Nash, agreed to plant a tracking device on Alexis Drazen. CTU agents rigged Room 1242 of the Senator's hotel with fiber optics and set up viewing monitors in the room across the hall.

Dissociative amnesia "Day 1: 5:00pm-6:00pm" DISSOCIATIVE AMNESIA
Dissociative Amnesia is a type of dissociate disorder that is usually a coping mechanism for some type of trauma. Unlike other forms of amnesia, dissociate amnesia is not caused by a physical injury, a blunt force trauma to the head. An individual with dissociate amnesia typically experiences temporary memory loss that is centered around a specific window of time.

Teri Bauer suffered from dissociate amnesia after watching her car roll down a hillside and explode, because she believed Kim to be inside the car at the time. Teri ended up at a restaurant and spoke with Dr. Phil Parslow, who claimed he knew her. Despite Dr. Parslow asking several questions and informing Teri about personal details of her life, Teri could not remember details about what had happened to her or who she was.

Power grid "Day 1: 6:00pm-7:00pm" POWER GRID
The power grid is the continent-wide network of electricity transmission lines and power substations. The power grid expands across the entire United States and parts of Canada, and delivers electricity to customers all over North America through high-power lines.

Jack discovered that Alan Morgan, the man he met when posing as Alexis Drazen, had been paid to turn off a section of the power grid that affected an area in Saugus. After driving to the area with George Mason, Jack discovered that the location was a wildlife preserve.

Underground detention facilities "Day 1: 7:00pm-8:00pm" UNDERGROUND DETENTION FACILITIES
Underground detention facilities are secret prisons that hold foreign nationals wanted for international crimes. The existence of such facilities are not officially recognized by the United States government.

Jack Bauer discovered an underground detention facility in Saugus and found out that a high security prisoner was being transferred to the facility at the same time that the power had been scheduled to be turned off. Jack learned that the prisoner was Victor Drazen, and he worked with the guards at the facility to prevent an ambush by Andre Drazen.

Super Tuesday "Day 1: 8:00pm-9:00pm" SUPER TUESDAY
Super Tuesday is a day on which many states hold their presidential nomination primaries.

The events of Day 1 took place on Super Tuesday in an unspecified year.

Purview of CTU "Day 1: 9:00pm-10:00pm" PURVIEW OF CTU
The Purview of CTU is that it reports to Congress. In the real world, the CIA reports to Congress and the Executive Branch, and the FBI reports to the Department of Justice and the Attorney General.

As Mason and Palmer are discussing the trade involving Jack, Mason reminds Palmer that CTU doesn't fall under Senate purview, but Palmer replies that it falls under Presidential purview and that he, Palmer, will have that office in nine months, and will compensate Mason if he goes through with the trade.

Port of Los Angeles "Day 1: 10:00pm-11:00pm" THE PORT OF LOS ANGELES
The Port of Los Angeles is a major shipping port and center of commerce located in the city of Los Angeles.
