Quotes 

• Curtis Manning : I just got a call from Bill: Lynn McGill wants me to bring you back to CTU. His on some kind of "warpath"

  Jack Bauer : Why? Because I didn't think letting terrorists release the Sentox nerve gas in a crowded mall was an "acceptable loss?"

  Curtis Manning : And because we lost our only real lead. Lynn's looking for someone to blame

  Jack Bauer : I was appointed by the President of the United States, it was a field call

  Curtis Manning : I know and between you and me, I think you made the right call back at the mall

  Jack Bauer : I'm calling the President

  Curtis Manning : The trail's gone "cold", there's no point in fighting this. Let's just go back to CTU and "square" it

  Jack Bauer : Fine

  Curtis Manning : Sorry, but I'm going have to take your gun

  Curtis Manning : [after Jack hesitates]  don't make this any harder than it already is

• Audrey Raines : [Over the phone, after Jack patching Jack into this conversation]  I'm on the phone with a man who claims to be "James Nathanson." he was Walt Cummings' contact: he says he has information about the terrorists but he'll only talk to you

  Jack Bauer : Why me?

  James Nathanson : You can hang up now Ms. Raines: my phone has a node monitor, I'll know if anyone else comes on this line

  Audrey Raines : Jack?

  Jack Bauer : [to Audrey]  It's alright, hang up the phone

  Jack Bauer : [to James]  What'd you want with me?

  James Nathanson : Protection. The terrorists your after are trying to kill me

  Jack Bauer : The terrorists figured out you're the one who rigged the canisters, the Sentox will blow up in their faces, what'd you need me for? Just turn yourself into the authorities, they'll protect you

  James Nathanson : Walt Cummings isn't the only one in this operation who works inside the government, I need your help

  Jack Bauer : You conspired to have me take the fall for the assassination: what makes you think I'm not going to kill you myself?

  James Nathanson : Because you want to stop the Sentox nerve gas from being released on US soil, so do I

  Jack Bauer : Where are you?

  James Nathanson : There a phone booth on the south side of Mort Park, just east of Densmore, be there in ten minutes or I'll be gone

• Jack Bauer : [Referring to Bierko]  he wants to assassinate Suvarov

  Mike Novick : You can't let that happen: if the Russian President is killed on US soil, it wouldn't just nullify the treaty, it would destroy our relationship with Moscow

  Jack Bauer : Get me Suvarov's route from Secret Service

  Mike Novick : Mr. President...

  Jack Bauer : [Interrupts him]  no I haven't any decision yet but whatever I decide, I better have the route in hand when he calls back don't you think?

  Mike Novick : Yes Sir

• Jack Bauer : [Over the phone]  I'm here, where are you?

  James Nathanson : In a minute: first I want to make sure you weren't followed otherwise, there's no deal. Take the alleyway between the two buildings across the street from you. I left the gate open

  Jack Bauer : Listen to me, I don't know what you think I can do for you but you committed treason

  James Nathanson : I don't see it that way, I love this country

  Jack Bauer : You're never going to be able to justify killing David Palmer

  James Nathanson : That was an unfortunate "necessity." We admired Palmer but we had other priorities, this country needs a reason to secure its oil interests in Asia: a reason Russia and the rest of the world can get behind

  Jack Bauer : I've heard your "reasoning" from Walt Cummings, its still treason

  James Nathanson : No, it's a real politic. Do you see the open door ahead?

  Jack Bauer : Yeah

  James Nathanson : Enter it, make two right turns and walk back the direction you came from

• Jack Bauer : [Over the phone]  what'd you got?

  Chloe O'Brian : [while checking the information on her computer]  the decryption element "kicked out" a company called Teradyne: the past three years they've acquired more than a hundred pounds of raw strontium isotope used to create Sentox nerve gas

  Jack Bauer : Where do I find Teradyne?

  Chloe O'Brian : It's a subsidiary of a larger corporation called Omicron International

  Jack Bauer : Hold on, did you say Omicron?

  Chloe O'Brian : Yeah

  Jack Bauer : Are you sure?

  Chloe O'Brian : What's wrong?

  Jack Bauer : Pull up the senior executive roaster: see if a man named Christopher Henderson is on the list

  Chloe O'Brian : Why?

  Jack Bauer : Just do it please

  Chloe O'Brian : Ok, here it is. Christopher Henderson Senior Vice President of Research and Development, do you know him?

  Jack Bauer : Yeah I did, "once." Listen, send the decrypted files over to my PDA

  Chloe O'Brian : It's going to be a little hard to do right now. Lynn is watching everyone like a hawk

  Jack Bauer : Let Buchanan help

  Chloe O'Brian : He could if he weren't in holding

  Jack Bauer : What're you talking about?

  Chloe O'Brian : Lynn detained him for insubordination

  Jack Bauer : How could he do that?

  Chloe O'Brian : Because his losing it, I think the President is putting too much pressure on him to find those canisters: he can't handle it

  Jack Bauer : I'm still going to need those decrypted files, you're going to have to find a way of getting them to me

  Chloe O'Brian : [Before hanging up]  I'll try
