Marisol Nichols: Nadia Yassir

Quotes 

• Ben Kram : [after showing her his credentials]  I'm from Division, you should've received a flash memo alerting you of my arrival

  Nadia Yassir : Well, our systems are still down so we can't receive memos just yet

  Ben Kram : That's exactly why I'm here. I've been authorized to compile, account, and assess your security breach

  Nadia Yassir : Well, sir, we're right in the middle of a recovery operation and its 3 o'clock in the morning: this isn't the best time to be questioning my people

  Ben Kram : Frankly, I don't particularly care what you think

  Nadia Yassir : Excuse me?

  Ben Kram : This "incident" represents a serious breach in your security protocols, one that resulted in a number of CTU personnel. Obviously mistakes were made, "errors in judgment", not the least of which was of my accepting Bill Buchanan's recommendation to leave someone with your limited experience in charge. So, can I count on your full cooperation or not?

  Nadia Yassir : I never said otherwise

• Morris O'Brian : [Talking privately, referring to Ben Kram]  this may not be my place, don't let this bugger from Division get to you: you're not responsible for what happened

  Nadia Yassir : Of course I'm responsible, it happened on my watch

  Morris O'Brian : There was nothing you could've done. Don't let them hang you out to dry

  Nadia Yassir : No, people are dead, Milo is dead because of me

  Morris O'Brian : That's ridiculous: there was nothing anyone could've done about him

  Nadia Yassir : I could've stood up, I could've said something

  Morris O'Brian : There was no time. Milo "jumped" in

  Nadia Yassir : There was time... I just "hesitated". I was just...

  Morris O'Brian : [Interrupts her]  you were just afraid? Yeah I have a bit of "experience" with that. Look, I'm not one to give advice on how to handle self incrimination, but I know this: Milo was a brave man, he never would've sacrificed himself if he knew there are others to lay his death at your feet, and he wanted you to stay strong, stay in charge
