Quotes 

• Tony Almeida : [Over the phone]  I guess you're about ten minutes from the airport?

  Jack Bauer : Yeah that seems about right: look, have you got a complete tail number on the aircraft yet?

  Tony Almeida : No, not yet. We're still working on it. Look you'll link up with the assault team on the south side of emergency building. Their sweeping the grounds now, they're starting to lock it down

  Jack Bauer : Ok that sounds good. Did you contact Kim yet?

  Tony Almeida : No I haven't. I've made calls I've called the Sheriff's station and sent out search teams. I just don't understand why she hasn't contacted us yet

  Jack Bauer : She knows she can't go back to Los Angeles. Right now the LAPD is looking for her as a murder suspect. She's not going to reach out to us. Right now we've got to find her, do you understand?

  Tony Almeida : Believe me, I'm putting every resource we can spare on it

  Jack Bauer : Do everything you have to

  Tony Almeida : Ok

  Jack Bauer : Thanks

• Jack Bauer : [Briefing the tactical team before they confront the paramilitary unit Coral Snake]  everybody gather around. Gentlemen, we are going to engaging hostiles in a large uncontrolled area. I want everyone wearing ID tags, no exception. Anyone wants to leave this area, they check with me first. Here's the situation: there is a nuclear warhead somewhere on site. There's an "envelop" surrounding it, an armed delta team. I want three sub-units, unit one will make the first sweep. Unit two coordinates air and tactical. Unit three awaits my command until I have a twenty on the bomb. Does everyone understand?

• George Mason : [Over the phone]  there's a new "wrinkle", how far are you from the airport?

  Jack Bauer : We're looking at a couple minutes. What're you talking about? What kind of "wrinkle"?

  George Mason : There's a hostile US paramilitary unit standing between you and the bomb: Coral Snake team headed by Colonel Ron Samuels

  Jack Bauer : Yes, the same unit that took out our plane. What the hell is going on? Why is a US military team aiding terrorists?

  George Mason : As far as we know, they're not. The best we can make out, they want to be the ones to secure the bomb, for whatever reason anyone who stands in their way they're going to treat as an adversary

  Jack Bauer : Why don't you tell Colonel Samuels' team to stand down?

  George Mason : We were told they went "dark" three hours ago. Their a rogue unit. Their acting on their own authority

  Jack Bauer : How do I find them?

  George Mason : I wish I could narrow it down for you, somewhere in the airport. I'm trying to get men up there from Camp Pendleton

  Jack Bauer : This is bad

  George Mason : Yeah it is. Our best bet is still you getting past them to the bomb
