This is the second time Jack is accused of assassinating (or plotting to assassinate) David Palmer. The first time was in Day 1.
Real-time error: Logan said he was expecting the helicopter to land in five minutes. The five minutes lapsed when Jack, Derrick and Diana met up at the airport.
There are 25 agents in the penthouse where president Palmer was murdered and yet Jack was the only one who thought it would be useful to check the computer.
Jack Bauer: The only reason you're still conscious is because I don't want to carry you.
Wayne Palmer: You son of a bitch! You killed my brother.
Jack Bauer: Mr. Palmer, you know I didn't do that. Whatever evidence they showed you against me has been fabricated. I served your brother for years. I would have gladly given my life for his. He was my friend.
Diane Huxley: You gotta tell me right now what the hell is going on here, Frank.
Jack Bauer: My name's not Frank. It's Jack Bauer.
