Whoa, hold on a sec. I thought the pardon was for the "future murder of Jack Bauer" when she had the info about Sayed Ali last season. But CTU was able to re-capture her after she had taken Jack sorta hostage. So it seemed to me that she was headed back to jail... did the pardon cover her past crimes too?

You so easily forget that George Mason had to call Palmer to get the presidential pardon before Nina would even talk in the first place. After he got that, he sent Jack in for the best scene in the history of 24.

Now, back to this season... so what's the point of having that virus outbreak threat if you know that the government is never going to negotiate with terrorists? Were Jack, Gael, and Tony just hoping that maybe this time, the government would make an exception given the grave nature of the threat, and that the prison break out would be a backup?

The virus outbreak was their excuse for breaking out Salizar. Without it, it would have just seemed like a regular breakout rather than an attempt at stopping some sort of catastrophic disaster.
