Quotes

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

President Charles Logan : [after he enters the room] what is it now?
Mike Novick : I'm sorry Sir but there's a call you need to take: it just came in on this
President Charles Logan : And what is that?
Mike Novick : Walt Cummings' phone Sir. It's been in Secret Service custody, they just brought it to me. The caller's claiming he has the Sentox nerve gas
President Charles Logan : Is someone tracing the call?
Mike Novick : They can't, it's being sent through multiple relays
President Charles Logan : I'm not talking to terrorists, you talk to them, you find out what he wants
Mike Novick : His demanding to speak to you
President Charles Logan : [At first reluctantly] alright, put him on speaker
President Charles Logan : This is President Logan, is this Erwich?
Vladimir Bierko : Ivan Erwich is no longer with us. His attack on your shopping mall was unsanctioned and unwarranted: it didn't serve our interests
President Charles Logan : What is it you want?
Vladimir Bierko : What I want is to release the Sentox nerve gas on Moscow. Since that is now impossible, I am forced to strike at Russia on foreign soil, with your help
President Charles Logan : My help?
Vladimir Bierko : I want the route of Suvarov's motorcade. His entire route to airport, along with a full profile of his security detail
President Charles Logan : I personally don't have that information
Vladimir Bierko : Then get it, make no mistake, it's our Russian oppressors I need to hurt, not your people. However you refuse to cooperate, I'll have no choice but to release all the Sentox in areas far more populated than your shopping mall
President Charles Logan : You just said killing Americans doesn't serve your interests, this would be senseless murder
Vladimir Bierko : Yes, it would so give me Suvarov's route
President Charles Logan : I'll need some time
Vladimir Bierko : You have fifteen minutes
President Charles Logan : [Before Bierko hangs up] I'm not sure...

Martha Logan : Sir, if President Suvarov is killed, if the Russians find out we supplied this information, it will be considered an act of war
President Charles Logan : The Russian motorcade has a significant security force, I see no reason to believe that the terrorists would even be successful: maybe we should have an analysis done to determine the vulnerable "points" along the route?
Mike Novick : Sir, we can't do that without giving away we had advance knowledge of the attack
Martha Logan : [Just entering the room and overhearing their conversation] what attack?
President Charles Logan : [Surprised to see her] it's nothing you need to be concerned about
Martha Logan : [Sternly to Charles] you invited me into this circle: what attack?
President Charles Logan : The terrorists want the Suvarov motorcade route. They've threatened to deploy more Sentox gas if I didn't give it to them
Martha Logan : You're not seriously considering it are you?
Mike Novick : [to Martha, while Charles remains silent] Charles believes an assault on the Suvarov has a good chance...
Martha Logan : [Interrupts him, annoyed] will you please let the President speak for himself? May we have a moment?
President Charles Logan : [after Mike leaves the room] please, if I don't give them the information they want, tens of thousands of Americans will die on our own soil: maybe hundreds of thousands and I will be responsible
Martha Logan : Alright, there's got to be another way, change their itinerary, and delay Suvarov from leaving
President Charles Logan : It's all over the news, the Russians are leaving after we make the joint statement. If there's any deviation from that, the terrorists will know that I've alerted them
Martha Logan : [Covering her face with her hands] what're you saying? What're you telling me? That we are going to stand in front of the entire world with the Suvarovs, you're going to look at him in the eye, shake his hand, knowing your sending them to their deaths?
President Charles Logan : If we were in Russia, and Suvarov got this ultimatum, do you think he would spare us?
Martha Logan : [Raising her voice] I'm not talking about Russia, I'm not talking about the Suvarovs, and I'm talking about you: the President of the United States, you're talking about murder
President Charles Logan : My back is against the wall. Give me another solution?
Martha Logan : [Yells] stand up to them, refuse to negotiate with them, is that the policy of this country? Isn't that the point of the treaty you just signed?
President Charles Logan : It's not that simple: it never is
