The Rookie CTU stars Jeremy Ray Valdez as Jason Blaine who has joined the LA branch of CTU (Counter Terrorist Unit) . Jason Blaine wants to work in the field but is stuck behind a computer looking at intel. The Rookie CTU was made by the same directers who made the 24 tv series as The Rookie CTU was made as a spin off for 24's 6th season. The Rookie CTU is not real time like the 24 tv series but includes most of the show's other elements. It was also said that Rookie CTU will have 24 Day Zero (with Jack Bauer) (Operation Nightfall) play on the site on the 22nd of May 2007.
Coffee Run
The first day of The Rookie CTU is called "Coffee Run" which has Jason Blaine (The Rookie) getting coffee for everyone in a meeting, in which he sees armed robbers enter a bank which Jason sees. It is a three part episode which is a total of 8 minutes and 8 seconds which takes place between 9:12am and 9:35am.
Chapter 1: Coffee Run (9:12am-9:22am) starts off with Jason getting intel for the field agents until his Angie Lawson (his boss, Manager, Video Surveillance Unit) is called in to a meeting with Deputy Director Of CTU (Alton Maxwell) who also sends Jason out to get coffee for everyone in the meeting. On his way to the coffee shop he helps an old women pick up her dog who then almost gets run over by some guys in a silver SUV (Jason saves her) which we see the men armed with guns speed down the road. When Jason gets to the coffee shop he spots the same car and she the guns, after he walks outside with the coffee he calls Angie and tells her someone is trying to rob the bank and Angie tells him it's not his job (as CTU "does not exist" so the public doesn't know about CTU), it ends with Jason going round the back of the bank and down to the stairs with Angie saying "besides you don't even have a gun with you". The clock starts ticking ending at 09:22:18am. Chapter 1 is 2 minutes and 48 seconds long.
Chapter 2: (9:22am-9:24am) starts with "Previously on The Rookie" which sums up what happed in Chapter 1. Chapter 2 continues with the robbers walking into the bank and telling everybody to get to the floor at the same time one of th robbers is shooting the cameras out. Afterwards the leader says "We don't want to shoot you you, screw that we do want to shoot you GET DOWN". We see Jason enter the bank from the door downstairs when a robber says "30 seconds". Angie sends for police backup to go to the bank and the leader of the group tells the dog to shut up and then fires his Submachine gun. As Jason creeps up the stairs one of the people sees Jason and he puts his finger to his month. Then a robber says "60 seconds lets go" while Jason moves quickly behind a desk and Jason calls Angie on his cell phone and leaves it on the desk. As Jason peeks around the desk he see a 9mm handgun. The clock starts ticking ending at 09:24:09am. Chapter 2 is 2 minutes and 29 seconds long.
Chapter 3: (9:24am-9:35am)

The Hero Complex is a compulsion to help others and make the world right. Although not officially considered a disorder or disease, there is an increasing number of people who 'suffer' from it. Many fictitious heroes and main characters seem to have this as well, but note that there is a difference between helping others out of choice and feeling compelled to. It may also be associated with Zoological Altruism- Instinctive cooperative behavior that is detrimental to the individual but contributes to the survival of close relatives, thus making it more likely to be passed on.
Traits
Those who have a "Hero Complex" tend to feel that the current life they live is insufficient. For most, the need will ebb and flow. There will be days where they will ask questions like why they have had the role thrust upon them, if what they're doing is really going to make a difference, and sometimes even why they care in the first place.
Many believe that they could do more if they had the means to, whether it is in terms of money, power, or something else held in prestige. Most wait quietly believing that someday they will find these means, although some go out to "find" them on their own. They also often ask the question 'is this really enough?' or 'am I doing the right thing?' Usually such questions have a demoralizing effect, but many who have the Hero Complex will be motivated to find these answers. They are very loyal and dependable, and when given a challenge will almost always find a way to complete it...if they see it as a useful challenge. These traits make them great leaders and friends, for their extensive thought process makes them great at giving advice and opinions in addition to lending their abilities and talents when they can. However, the universal respect societies have for such people leads many to ignore the negative implications. Their high standards might not only carry the risk of overextending themselves and causing depression and withdrawal, they might lead the individual to become destructive (see "Villain-Complex" below).
In fulfilling these desires, they will take on a more benevolent behavior, and 'unlock' the true meanings of themselves. This is the true need of those who have a Hero Complex. Excellent examples of this are David Dunn of Unbreakable, Harry Potter, Goku from Dragon Ball Z, and Batman.
The person suffering from true Hero Complex will have hullicinations of saving the people they care about most. They have day dreams that include saving friends/family from fires, drowning, etc. They can also get a feeling inside of them like their stomach dropped ten feet. This usually occurs when they view someone in pain. Whether its a movie, video game, or real life, their Hero Complex can be triggered by someone elses misfortune. Crying is a big weakness for those with Hero Complex. Even if the person in need is an enemy, a Hero Complex will try to help. As stated above, this is not just having a "big heart" it is a compulsion to help others. If they dont they feel horrid and think they arent good people.
Causes
While not everyone who has been disappointed at some point in their lives will develop a hero complex, almost everyone with one has been in some way or another. One cause may be trying to atone for a sense of worthlessness. This sense may be caused by underlying stress from the inability to complete certain everyday tasks. Alternatively, because of the lack of modern-day heroes, the sufferer may be trying to compensate for a loss of 'icons' in modern societies, and they look inward instead of outward for their own gratification. They may feel guilt for not helping others in the past, or they may have felt pain at a previous point in their lives and are motivated by fear of seeing that pain inflicted on others.
Coping
Although there is no "treatment", many look for ways to find release from their troubled worlds instead of having to confront it. Often, a release can be found in video games, because of their allowance for one to enact heroic roles, or in personifications of heroes (i.e. Movies and comics or role-playing). The effects are not permanent, but can lead to an addiction to false realities. Perhaps the best thing for "victims" to do is accept there are some things we cannot change and others just need time. At other times, the best thing to do is to try to make a change, as long as the goal is within reach.
Villain Complex
A few of those who have the Hero Complex may begin to turn towards the 'dark side'. This can happen to those who either have an objective so narrow (acquiring power, defeating a nemesis) that they lose sight of everything else, or those who become so powerful they begin to use might alone to set things right. The need to help becomes the want to hurt. They often lose sight of those they are trying to help, who they might even come to despise as weak and deserving of punishment. They become intolerable of weakness and anything that deviates from their vision of a perfect world, and before long, they become the oppressors when all they wanted was to set things right. Some, like Anakin Skywalker, do not even realize they are hurting those they were trying to help and do not see the negative impact they are having.
If left in this thinking too long, they may become unrecoverable. (i.e. Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII and Dr. Doom of Fantastic Four.)
