Not really sure what happened but he told Rachel that he was upset that the HMs thought it was a task! He said something about he sometimes can't help taking on the character of Jack Bauer
he pretended to get really upset, I think he may have even cried. Anyway, Rachel fell for it. He's also made some sort of deal with John James but I'm not sure if that was related to his task.
He's just come out of the DR with a kiss on his cheek and he looks really happy with his treat!
