That morning, his brother, David , was with him to finish writing his presidential memoirs. They were revising them, but David seemed to be distracted.
Wayne asked him what was wrong, but David assured him it was ok. Wayne reminded him he was his brother and he could trust him. David then agreed that they needed a break.
Wayne decided it would be best to take the break before they tackled the chapter on David's relationship with Sherry Palmer. As Wayne turned to check the memoirs, David glanced out the window. At that moment, he heard a gunshot and turned around to see his brother lying on the floor, with a gunshot on his neck.
Wayne immediately grabbed his brother, holding him in his arms and screamed for help. As he did, Secret Service agents scrambled to the window to see what had happened. Wayne's brother was assassinated and many federal agents were at Wayne's apartment to investigate the crime.
A little after 8am , Wayne walked into his studio and discovered Jack in his penthouse. Wayne was furious and accused Jack of killing his brother, but Jack assured Wayne he didn't and he was only at the apartment to get a hint on who the real killer was. As a proof of his innocence, Jack gave Wayne his firearm. As Jack slowly sat back down at the computer, Wayne pointed the gun at him but ended up lowering it, realizing that Jack might be telling the truth.
Wayne then decided to help. Jack discovered something in a copy of David's original memoir that lead him to the Ontario Airport. However, the agents learned Jack was in the building and Wayne offered to help him escape. Jack refused, as he told Wayne he couldn't be implicated in anyway to his brother's death. Nevertheless, he swore to Wayne he would find out who killed his brother.
It was also confirmed James Nathanson and Christopher Henderson were complicit in the plot. Shortly after 8pm , President Charles Logan evoked martial law on the Los Angeles metropolitan area, however he called it a curfew in order to avoid getting permission from Congress. Wayne left for Los Angeles before martial law was activated, as he discovered there was a source inside the White House.
Wayne called Aaron Pierce , the head of Secret Service , to tell him he was coming to the presidential retreat. When Wayne was stopped by the military, Vice President Hal Gardner gave him clearance to enter the city. While driving to the retreat, armed men led by Henderson's mercenary Brennan shot one of Wayne's tires, and his vehicle crashed in a wooded area. Wayne managed to escape from the car, knock one of the gunmen unconscious, and steal his weapon.
When Wayne found a suspicious man walking around, he demanded for him to drop his gun, but was relieved when he discovered that it was Aaron, who left the retreat to look for him. With help from Aaron, Wayne was able to escape to the retreat. Wayne told Aaron that Evelyn Martin , the assistant to the first lady, exchanged emails with David before his death. Because the content had been deleted, Wayne confronted her and demanded for her to give up answers. Evelyn revealed that she had evidence that revealed the person who was behind the day's events.
However, she refused to cooperate as Christopher Henderson took her daughter Amy , and he was willing to kill her.
Aaron called Jack Bauer and arranged for him to meet with Wayne and Evelyn. While Wayne left the retreat, he was confronted by Vice President Gardner, who didn't realize he was coming to the retreat.
Gardner offered his condolences on his brother's death, and offered to let him speak to Logan, however Wayne politely refused - saying he had to catch the plane he was flying David's body back to Washington in the morning. Gardner knew Palmer and Aaron were fairly close, so he didn't become suspicious. However, he later discussed his suspicions with President Logan, which hinted he may have been involved in Palmer's death.
Wayne met with Jack and he agreed to help Evelyn save her daughter, if she would provide them with the evidence. It is at this time that David's death truly sank in for Wayne, as he had to realize his brother was gone. When Jack prepared to storm Henderson's base, Wayne insisted on coming with him, noting his former career in the Marines, but Jack knew very well that Wayne had never seen combat, and did not wish for any harm to come to Wayne for David's sake, and instead recommend he hide with Evelyn.
At this, Wayne painfully expressed to Jack how his brother had been shot and then died in his arms, and rhetorically asked if he could walk away after such an event. At this, Jack willingly gave him a firearm. Together, Jack and Wayne stormed Henderson's base, while Evelyn drove there. After Evelyn got her daughter back, Jack took out all of the hostiles surrounding the area and Evelyn was shot. Henderson managed to escape and Wayne shot at the car, but he wasn't able to stop him.
Evelyn then revealed that Logan, not Gardner, was the one involved in the day's events. Wayne and Jack brought Evelyn and her daughter back to a motel room.
Jack wanted to go after the evidence at the bank and suggested for Wayne to stay with her. Evelyn encouraged Jack to bring Wayne with him and get the evidence. After entering the home of Carl Mossman , the evening bank manager, Jack and Wayne were able to get into the bank.
Jack was able to secure the audio recording that implicated Logan in Palmer's death. Once Carl realized what Jack and Wayne were up against, he agreed to help. Jack drops Wayne off with Bill Buchanan. When Jack realized Henderson's men were outside of the building, he had the silent alarm triggered.
While Cooper and the mercenaries engaged the police and military in a gunfight, Jack, Wayne, and Carl ran to a vehicle. However, Carl was shot and died seconds later in the car. Several hours later, after Jack was able to get the recording back, it was erased by Miles Papazian. Later in the day, Logan tried to have Wayne reached, as he wanted him present for David's memorial.
None of Logan's staff was able to get in contact with him, and Logan decided to proceed with the ceremony without him. After giving Palmer's eulogy, Logan was detained by Secret Service, as a conversation between him and his wife implicated him in the day's events. Wayne received a visit at his home from Tom Lennox , who suggested for him to run for the presidency; Wayne accepted, and Lennox spearheaded his campaign " Day 6: pmpm ".
Wayne asked Noah Daniels to be his running mate on the ticket. Wayne and Daniels very rarely agreed politically and had a difficult relationship that Wayne described as a 'marriage of convenience. Palmer won the presidency and he named Tom his Chief of Staff after he spearheaded his Presidency campaign. Eleven weeks prior to the events of Day 6 , America suffered from a siege of terrorist attacks, mostly bombings.
The government learned that Hamri Al-Assad , a well known terrorist, was behind the attacks. Wayne had the money wired to one of Fayed's accounts and he negotiated with the Chinese for Bauer's release, as he was taken prisoner by Cheng Zhi at the end of Day 5. Tom Lennox proposed a set of emergency measure against Muslims that would result in massive internment into detention camps.
Although many including Vice President Daniels, supported the plan, Wayne had decided not to implement his plan. They told him that the only way they would get through the crisis was if Jack Bauer was killed. Wayne offered his gratitude and condolences for everything Jack had done for the country and his brother. Jack revealed that Fayed was the one responsible for the attacks and Hamri Al-Assad was innocent of the accusations brought against him. Jack requested for the military strike to be called off and Wayne considered it.
After both Tom and Karen advised against it, Palmer decided to go forward with the strike. He has two children: a son, Keith, and a daughter, Nicole.
Palmer is a member of the Democratic Party. Palmers ex-vrouw Sherry en zijn broer Wayne speelden een grote rol bij zijn presidentschap. Hij heeft twee kinderen, een zoon, Keith, en een dochter, Nicole. Hij is naast Jack Bauer het enige personage dat in alle afleveringen van de eerste drie seizoenen te zien was.
But I have to say no. Jack Bauer : [Over the phone] Sir, when will you have a decision? President Palmer : We're analyzing now: when will the plane be ready? Jack Bauer : Ten minutes Mr. President Palmer : Alright I'll get back to you before then.
In the meantime prepare for the two possibilities we discussed and coordinate with the FAA. Jack Bauer : Yes Sir. President Palmer : Alright, we're ready to assemble. I'll get back to you in a couple of minutes with a final decision. Mike Novick : I wish I could say I have more faith in these recommendations President Palmer : [Interrupts him] as best you can.
Mike Novick : Yes Sir. I'll discuss the ten kiloton detonation in the Pacific Ocean and Lynn will do the same for the Mojave Desert: in the time available, the plane can get roughly eighty miles off shore.
If it splashes down a few minutes before detonation, the bomb will off underwater. The ocean will absorb a large amount of the radiation.
However prevailing winds will blow a moderate amount of fallout back over the city of Los Angeles. Overtime there will be high incidents of cancer and other radiation related diseases. President Palmer : But there would be no immediate causalities? Mike Novick : We can't be certain Mr. The shipping lanes into the Port of Los Angeles are extremely busy.
In the eighty square miles off the coast of LA, the Coast Guard counts some two dozen freighters flying flags from around the world.
Plus, an unknown number of fishing or pleasure vessels. It's likely one or more will be sunk or capsized by the affect of the blast. President Palmer : What's the impact on the environment?
Mike Novick : The blast will wipe out a substantial pocket of bio diversity. Keystone species would be exterminated. The food chain would be contaminated and the regional ecological infrastructure would collapse. Marine resources like offshore drilling, commercial fishing, and even recreational beach usage would be hazardous or impossible for many years.
The ecological economic affects will be devastating. President Palmer : What about the desert? Lynne Kresge : We can designate a ground zero in the Mojave, sufficiently isolated so inhabitants won't be immediately affected. Local towns could be evacuated within hours of the immediate blast without any serious long term effects for the inhabitants.
However, we can't rule out the possibility of isolated campers and hikers who would be killed or contaminated by the blast. Now if the wind shifts substantially, during the next few hours it could create fallout over Las Vegas but the best meteorological projection indicates that is a very, very slight possibility.
President Palmer : Long term effects? Lynne Kresge : An area of a few square miles around ground zero would be highly radioactive for decades but the truth of the matter is we don't get food or any significant resources from the desert anyway so the overall health effects is relatively small. President Palmer : Sounds like the desert is our best option. Lynne Kresge : Yes Sir, we do agree with that but there is one more thing" in the desert ground zero has to be a precise location, a Depression below sea level surrounded by mountains so hopefully it can contain the fallout.
Potential targets are being researched as we speak. President Palmer : Alright. Lynne Kresge : The point is Mr. President is that the plane isn't a military craft. It doesn't have any of the equipment needed to deliver a payload accurately. To endure the necessary level of precision, the pilot will have to go down with the plane.
Lynne Kresge : [Referring to the flying the bomb into the desert] it's a suicide mission. President Palmer : [Stands up in disappointment] why can't we push the bomb out the side door of the plane? Mike Novick : It's too imprecise: if the pilot is flying low enough to insure accuracy, he would be killed by the blast anyway.
