Honestly, if a sole source of "key intel" was as important as Ryan Burnett... wouldn't you have swarms of security surrounding him both inside and outside of the room, not to mention blocking all of the access points to him? It's hilarious how flawed some things this season have been, such as how when they increased the threat level they failed to increase security in the white house and in particular around the president... you would have figured this would be the FIRST place they increase security.
I just have to keep reminding myself I watch 24 for Jack Bauer, not the plot loopholes
