The more I think about this the more I think it was a bad move - assuming they didn't trick us somehow.
Jack deduced that Ryan was a target because of his ability to follow the money trail. But that was a bust as Chase's apartment infiltration proved. So why kill Chappelle? To buy time. Why didn't Palmer ask Saunders, "let's quit beating around the bush and get to what you really want?"
Jack should realize that Saunders either has a specific goal or request in mind or that he wants to release the virus and will do it no matter what. The Chappelle ordeal is just a ruse. There's no way that van is going to go to Saunders. He's too smart for that. I'm surprised Jack hasn't figured that out.
By giving in to Saunders' demands, Jack and Palmer are just giving him time to set up, without asking him what he really wants. I hope this is resolved satisfactorily because right now Jack and Palmer look like real wimps.
