The first perspective is that of GNN television news producer Rex Brooks, who directs various cameramen and news anchors as the President arrives at a plaza filled with dignitaries, media personnel, and the general public. Brooks notices Secret Service agent Thomas Barnes, who had taken a bullet for the President in an assassination attempt six months earlier, has rejoined the team. The mayor of Salamanca delivers a short speech, then introduces the President, who is shot twice as he greets the crowd from the podium. An explosion outside the plaza soon follows, propelling the crowd from confusion to panic. A few moments later the podium itself is destroyed by another huge explosion. As the smoke clears, GNN reporter Angie Jones is seen lying dead in the rubble. The clock rewinds, and Secret Service agents Thomas Barnes and Kent Taylor are observing the crowd while the mayor speaks. Barnes notices a curtain fluttering in the window of a nearby building that allegedly was vacated before the President arrived. He also sees American tourist Howard Lewis filming with his video camera. When the President is shot, Barnes tackles a man rushing the podium, who is then dragged off by other agents. He asks Howard, who thinks he may have caught the assassin on tape, to let him see the footage he shot. Taylor pursues the assassin, offering to protect Barnes from blame in case he is wrong about the shooter. After the second explosion, Barnes barges into the GNN production room and asks to see their footage. He calls Taylor, who reports being in hot pursuit of the suspect, and while speaking to him he sees something on GNN's live feed that shocks him and prompts him to run out. The clock rewinds, and Enrique, a Spanish police officer assigned to protect the mayor of Salamanca, sees his girlfriend Veronica being embraced by a stranger and overhears them speaking about a meeting under a nearby overpass. When he confronts her, she assures him of her love. Enrique hands her the bag she asked him to bring. When the President is shot, Enrique rushes onto the stage to protect the mayor and is tackled by Barnes, and while being detained sees Veronica toss the bag under the podium, which explodes. Enrique escapes, and the agent who had him in custody chases him across the city but fails to capture him. He confronts an unseen individual at the overpass and asks if he is surprised to see him still alive. The clock rewinds, and while Howard Lewis is chatting with a man named Sam in the plaza, a little girl named Anna bumps into him and drops her ice cream cone. He offers to buy the girl a new one but her mother declines. When he notices Barnes looking at a window across the way, he aims his camera at it, filming it and then the pandemonium that follows when the President is shot. When the podium explodes, Howard picks up Anna, who has become separated from her mother, and places her in the care of a policewoman before chasing Enrique and the pursuing Secret Service agents. At the overpass, Enrique speaks to someone out of Howard's line of sight, then is shot and falls mortally wounded. Howard sees Anna trying to cross a heavily-trafficked, multiple-lane road. As an ambulance bears down on the child, he runs out in an attempt to save her.
