Quotes
-
Kyle Singer : Hey, how was the interview?
Sam Singer : Fine
Kyle Singer : What's up dad?
Sam Singer : Your mother told me you paid the rent: the three months we owed?
Kyle Singer : Yeah I came into a little money
Sam Singer : How does a nineteen year old who doesn't have a job come into a "little money"?
Kyle Singer : Tim and I went down to the track the other day. He knows this guy over at the stables so I got a tip
Sam Singer : [Sternly] where did you get the money?
Kyle Singer : Dad, what does it matter? Honestly, the rent's paid for three months alright? So the pressure's off us now
Sam Singer : Did you do something illegal?
Kyle Singer : No. I told you we went to Santa Anita and we got lucky
Sam Singer : Don't lie to me, I got enough to worry about. Now this is my house, I pay the rent, I take care of you and your mother
Kyle Singer : [while walking away] when you get that job, you can go ahead and pay me back alright?
Sam Singer : Wait a second, we're not done here
Kyle Singer : No, we're done here
Sam Singer : [Yelling] don't walk away from me
Kyle Singer : You should be thanking me instead of crawling up my ass
-
Helen Singer : He said he won the money at the track
Sam Singer : He can up come up with a better lie than that
Helen Singer : Maybe he was telling the truth
Sam Singer : Oh, come on
Sam Singer : [while Kyle tries to walk past him] where are you going? What's in the bag?
Kyle Singer : Clothes
Sam Singer : Well, open it
Kyle Singer : What?
Sam Singer : Open the bag. I'm warning you: open that bag or I'm going to open it myself
Kyle Singer : [Looks at his mother] ma?
Helen Singer : Listen to your father
Kyle Singer : It's none of his business
Sam Singer : As long as it's in my house, it's my business
Kyle Singer : Your house? This isn't your house, you can't even pay the rent
Helen Singer : [Chastising him for talking back to his father] oh, Kyle
Kyle Singer : [after grabs his father grabs the bag away and begins to look through it] will you quit snooping please?
Sam Singer : [Pushes Kyle back] don't even think about it
Sam Singer : [Holding a bag of white powder after removing it from the bag] what is this? Coke? Heroin?
Kyle Singer : Give it back
Sam Singer : What'd you say?
Kyle Singer : I need it
Sam Singer : What'd you mean you need it? What're you? Some kind of junkie?
Kyle Singer : No. I'm just delivering it for this guy, if I don't get it to him...
Sam Singer : [Interrupts him] who?
Kyle Singer : Just a guy ok?
Sam Singer : [Raises his voice] who? Give me a name
Helen Singer : Kyle, answer your father
-
Sam Singer : I'm just saying Kyle is in over his head
Helen Singer : We're not calling our lawyer: he hasn't even been arrested
Sam Singer : Not yet
Helen Singer : Maybe he won't be. If we leave it alone, don't do anything, maybe this whole thing will just go away
Sam Singer : You can't be serious
Helen Singer : Why not? Why do we have to let anyone know?
Sam Singer : Because it's against the law not to
Helen Singer : What'd you suggest we do? Call the police? Maybe they'll give us a reward so we can pay our rent? That wasn't fair. I'm sorry

Jack Bauer : [while wearing a hazmat suit] Mr. and Mrs. Singer?
Sam Singer : What the hell is going on here? This is not just about drugs
Jack Bauer : I think you've been exposed to a virus
Sam Singer : A virus?
Jack Bauer : It's called Cordilla Virus, we think your son carried it in from Mexico without knowing it
Sam Singer : What'd you mean "carried it in"? How?
Jack Bauer : He thought he was carrying drugs
Sam Singer : So we've been exposed?
Jack Bauer : 'I'm afraid so
Sam Singer : What does that mean? Are we sick?
Jack Bauer : We're going to have to keep you quarantined until we get the results back from your test
Jack Bauer : [Answering his phone inside the helmet in the hazmat suit] yeah this is Bauer
Tony Almeida : It's Tony
Jack Bauer : I think Kyle Singer's been exposed
Tony Almeida : Yeah, we've already got an all points out on him
Jack Bauer : Have you set up a perimeter?
Tony Almeida : We're doing everything we can to contain this thing: all agencies, all departments are in the loop on a "need to know" basis
Jack Bauer : Ok good work
Tony Almeida : Listen, I know this isn't the best time to tell you this but I just got some bad news you want to know about
Jack Bauer : What's wrong?
Tony Almeida : Luis Annicon was murdered
Jack Bauer : Murdered? How?
Tony Almeida : Salazar's guard. We got him in custody, he claims Salazar has his son kidnapped and threatened to kill him if he didn't do it. I'm sorry, I know you two worked closely on this case
-
Sam Singer : What's going on? They don't have their suits on, what does that mean? Are we ok?
Jack Bauer : Yes, the powder was harmless
Helen Singer : Oh, thank God
Sam Singer : So you put us through all this for nothing: you scared the hell out of us
Jack Bauer : Mr. Singer, we still need to find your son, is there anything you can tell us that could help?
Sam Singer : Why? You just said the powder was harmless
Jack Bauer : We believe your son was infected with the virus earlier this morning before he came home. We have three hours to find him before he becomes contagious
Sam Singer : What're you saying? That our son could die?
Jack Bauer : Yes, that could happen
Helen Singer : Oh, God
Jack Bauer : I know how this must be difficult for you and I'm sorry but we need to find your son and we need to find him now
Sam Singer : Have you tried his cell phone?
Jack Bauer : Yes, the line's been disconnected
Helen Singer : Oh wait, he took my phone this morning
Jack Bauer : What's the number?
Helen Singer : 818-555-0103
Jack Bauer : [while taking out his cell phone to call CTU] ok, I'm going to need one of you to call him
Sam Singer : This is my fault. Kyle wouldn't have done any of this if I couldn't take care of my own family
Helen Singer : No
Sam Singer : Yes you know it's true
Jack Bauer : [Over the phone] it's Jack
Tony Almeida : I just spoke to LAPD, they got a priority APB on Singer
Jack Bauer : Ok good. I think we got a number on him
Tony Almeida : Ok we'll thread the line through a tracing matrix
Jack Bauer : Ok the number is 818-555-0103. I want you to reroute the call back to my cell phone
Tony Almeida : [to Kim] I need you to trace that number and reroute the call back to Jack's cell phone
-
Jack Bauer : [to Kyle's parents] I'm going to need one of you to make the call now. I need you to keep him on the line as long as possible so we can trace it
Sam Singer : What am I suppose to tell him?
Jack Bauer : The truth
Sam Singer : [Over the phone, while Jack listens and CTU traces the call] it's your father
Kyle Singer : Dad?
Sam Singer : We need to talk
Kyle Singer : Look, I don't know what you want to talk about. I know how pissed off you are ok?
Sam Singer : Whatever you did: I know you were just trying to help out your mom and me
Kyle Singer : Yeah look, unless you want to give back the stuff you took, I've got to deal with this situation ok?
Sam Singer : Please, don't hang up. Please? Listen to me, what I'm telling you is important, please, you have to come home
Kyle Singer : Why do you sound different?
Sam Singer : I need you to trust me on something I'm about to tell you
Kyle Singer : Dad?
Sam Singer : You may have gotten a virus, something you picked up in Mexico
Kyle Singer : What? How did you know I was in Mexico?
Sam Singer : It doesn't matter and you may be sick and if you are, you need to be checked out by a doctor
Kyle Singer : Look, I don't know what you're talking about but I feel fine
Sam Singer : I know it sounds crazy but it's real, now there are some people they're trying to help
Kyle Singer : [Surprised] cops?
Jack Bauer : Tony, you got a lock on this trace? We're going to lose this kid
Tony Almeida : [to Kim] how much longer?
Kim Bauer : I've got a cell tower but it's got a three mile radius
Kyle Singer : I can't believe this. One minute you tell me you love me, the next minute you sell me out to some cops
Sam Singer : They're not the police. They're just trying to stop this virus before it becomes an outbreak
Kyle Singer : I already told you, I feel fine alright?
Sam Singer : They're saying you're not going to feel sick for a few hours but by then it'll be too late
Jack Bauer : Tony, have you got a lock yet?
Tony Almeida : [to Kim] how much longer?
Kim Bauer : Ten seconds
Kyle Singer : What'd you want me to do? Turn myself in?
Sam Singer : Because you may be sick and if you are, then other people are going to be infected
Tony Almeida : We got it Jack. His at Los Feliz Mall between Vermont and Sunset
Jack Bauer : Ok, get his photograph to mall security tell them not to approach him
Tony Almeida : Look, your twenty minutes by car, I can land a team there in ten minutes
Jack Bauer : I don't want you taking Chase
Tony Almeida : Why not?
Jack Bauer : [Before hanging up] just don't
