James Badge Dale: Chase Edmunds

Quotes 

• Kim Bauer : [Over the phone]  dad, it's me

  Jack Bauer : What Kim?

  Kim Bauer : Adam and I just found something on Goss: we're working it up now. We should have an address pretty soon

  Jack Bauer : OK, good work

  Kim Bauer : and remember I want to talk to you

  Jack Bauer : Why? Is something wrong?

  Kim Bauer : [as Chase enters Jack's office]  no, I was just wondering if I could come up for a few minutes for something personal

  Jack Bauer : Sweetheart now's not a good time. As soon as I get a moment, I'll come down ok?

  Kim Bauer : [Before hanging up]  yeah, thanks

  Chase Edmunds : Their getting close to Goss

  Chase Edmunds : [Referring to his heroin addiction]  you didn't shoot up did you?

  Jack Bauer : What?

  Chase Edmunds : You think you can hide it from me?

  Jack Bauer : I'm not trying to hide it from you. I'm trying to quit

  Chase Edmunds : Ok, people don't just quit

  Jack Bauer : I've been tapering off, ok? Now it's time to stop

  Chase Edmunds : It doesn't look like it's time. Today is not a good day for you needing a fix

  Jack Bauer : [Intentionally changing the subject]  why don't you go work with Chloe to pin down a location on Hector Salazar?

  Chase Edmunds : What's wrong with the Methadone program? It takes a little time but it works

  Jack Bauer : I am not going on record with this addiction, do you understand me? Right now you're the only person that knows about it so it'll stay that way

  Chase Edmunds : This nothing to be ashamed of: you did this in the line of duty. Doing junk was the only way you could get close to Salazar, nobody's going to knock you for that

  Jack Bauer : I know what I did. This conversation's over, just get back to work

• Chloe O'Brian : I just looking at playback of the Health Services briefing

  Chase Edmunds : What about it?

  Chloe O'Brian : The government's not going to let this happen are they? I mean Salazar is just one person: no matter how bad he is

  Chase Edmunds : Forget all of that. We need to operate under our orders and that's to find the carrier of this virus

  Chloe O'Brian : Find the carrier? In the next four hours? Come on, that's not likely, is it?

  Chase Edmunds : Not if we sit here and debate it, weren't you supposed to modify a list of Goss associates?

  Chloe O'Brian : Kim's bringing it up now

  Chase Edmunds : Great. Then go over the autopsy report, see if there's anything they overlooked

  Chloe O'Brian : Fine

• Kim Bauer : Here are the files on Goss

  Chase Edmunds : I heard you talked to your dad earlier when I was in his office: why do you want to tell him today?

  Kim Bauer : Because it's not a big deal

  Chase Edmunds : Well, it is a big deal. Not only do I work for him, but I'm also a field agent. It's the last thing he wants for his daughter

  Kim Bauer : How do you know that?

  Chase Edmunds : I know, ok? I mean he talks about things, about how he was never there for you or your mom. He doesn't believe a field agent could ever have a relationship outside of work

  Kim Bauer : Did you ever stop and think that maybe it would make him happy? That his daughter finally found someone she loves?

  Kim Bauer : Look, I love you too. I just don't think today's a good day

• Chase Edmunds : I'm sorry you don't think I'm not good enough for your daughter: but I can't help the way I feel

  Jack Bauer : Why do you think I put Kim at CTU? Behind a desk? Working a computer? So I can keep an eye on her. Make sure she's safe, not so she can start dating some "field agent"

  Chase Edmunds : You're talking about her like she's twelve years old, she's a grown woman

  Jack Bauer : Damn it, you've seen what this job can do to you. You've seen what it's done to me, it's ruined every relationship I ever had

  Chase Edmunds : That's you

  Jack Bauer : [Raises his voice]  no! It's the job

  Chase Edmunds : I don't think so

  Jack Bauer : You don't think so. What the hell do you know? My wife died because of this job. I almost lost Kim too. I'm not going to let that happen again. I will do everything I can to protect her, do you understand me? Everything! You cannot have a normal life and do this job at the same time

  Chase Edmunds : You're saying I shouldn't have a relationship with anyone?

  Jack Bauer : It's exactly what I'm saying, especially with my daughter

• Zach Parker : I'm clean, you got nothing on me

  Jack Bauer : Shut up stupid: you just fired at a federal agent. You better start talking to me or I will let you bleed to death on this landing. Who is David Goss?

  Zach Parker : Goss is a dealer. I "score" for him sometimes

  Jack Bauer : Well, not anymore. His dead

  Zach Parker : Ok his dead

  Jack Bauer : Don't be a smart ass, who is his supplier?

  Jack Bauer : [Implying to him to step onto Parker's gunshot wound to inflict pain to extract information]  Chase

  Zach Parker : [while yelling in pain]  a guy named Carlos Claretha. He works out of Tijuana

  Jack Bauer : [to Chase]  Claretha is one of Salazar's midlevel distributors

  Chase Edmunds : You doing business with him?

  Zach Parker : I'm supposed to call him tonight. Claretha wanted me to find a "mule", someone clean without a record

  Jack Bauer : What for?

  Zach Parker : He wanted to move a small bag of coke across the border, it didn't make any sense to me

  Jack Bauer : Why not?

  Zach Parker : He paid ten grand to bring it up. Coke isn't even worth that much

  Jack Bauer : Where's the bag of coke now?

  Zach Parker : The guy who brought it across still has it

  Jack Bauer : What's his name?

  Zach Parker : His name's Kyle, Kyle Singer

• Jack Bauer : I need you to take Parker down to CTU

  Chase Edmunds : What about Kyle Singer?

  Jack Bauer : I'll take care of Singer. I want you to take care of Parker

  Chase Edmunds : Anybody can take him back to CTU and set him up. I'm going with you to get Singer

  Jack Bauer : No you're not

  Chase Edmunds : Why are you trying to get rid of me?

  Jack Bauer : I'm not trying to get rid of you. I still think Parker has more information and I want you to get it out of him

  Chase Edmunds : Is this about Kim? Are you punishing me for dating your daughter?

  Jack Bauer : Listen to me: if that kid is walking around with a bag a cocaine that's got the virus in it, and he doesn't know it? I need to find him and stop him from putting it into circulation

  Chase Edmunds : Yeah I know, that's why I want to help

  Jack Bauer : You can't, it's too dangerous

  Chase Edmunds : Too dangerous?

  Jack Bauer : You can't have it both ways. My daughter loves you, you want to be with her? Then I have to stop putting you in harm's way

  Chase Edmunds : You're kidding right?

  Jack Bauer : Take Parker to CTU, that's an order
