Quotes 

• Aaron Pierce : Maybe you can explain to me what's going on? Why were those men trying to kill you?

  Aaron Pierce : Who's this "source"?

  Wayne Palmer : Mrs. Logan's assistant

  Aaron Pierce : Evelyn Martin?

  Wayne Palmer : Yeah, she and David were trading emails. Listen, I need to find out the content of those messages, David was killed because of the information Evelyn gave him

• Wayne Palmer : [Talking privately, as Aaron stands nearby]  you sending emails to my brother Evelyn, why?

  Evelyn Martin : [Nervously]  I don't know what you're talking about

  Wayne Palmer : I checked traced the IP account right to your address so yes you do know what I'm talking about

  Wayne Palmer : [Slowly walking towards her]  I need to know what you told David

  Evelyn Martin : I didn't tell him anything

  Wayne Palmer : [Sternly]  Evelyn, I have the record of your correspondence. David deleted the content on those messages but I know you were in contact with him so please don't lie to me again. Tell me what I need to know. Someone killed David, and now they're trying to kill me. Now I think they knew I was coming here to see you so I think that means we're both in danger...

  Evelyn Martin : [as she tries to leave]  please I have to go now

  Wayne Palmer : [Grabs her arm]  tell me what I need

  Wayne Palmer : [Yells]  talk to me

  Evelyn Martin : I can't

  Evelyn Martin : [after taking a breath]  they kidnapped my little girl: they kidnapped my baby. They said they would give Amy back to me if I gave them the evidence

  Wayne Palmer : What evidence?

  Evelyn Martin : I have proof about everything's that's happened today

  Wayne Palmer : Listen, even if you turn over this evidence, they're not just going to give back your daughter and let you go that's not what they do. Now you've got to trust me, please talk to me

  Aaron Pierce : Ma'am, if I may, Mr. Palmer's right. You know too much: they'll kill you both

  Evelyn Martin : [to Wayne]  I'll give you the evidence I have if you get me back my daughter

• Aaron Pierce : [Referring to Wayne and Evelyn]  I'm extremely uncomfortable sending the two of you off without protection

  Wayne Palmer : We've been over this: if you leave the compound again, we're going to risk raising suspicion

  Aaron Pierce : I know sir, I don't like it

  Vice President Hal Gardner : Wayne? this is a surprise, we didn't know you were coming. Are you here to see the President?

  Wayne Palmer : No

  Aaron Pierce : Mr. Palmer came here to give me a memento from his brother: a service medal

  Wayne Palmer : Sorry, I knew you and the President were going to deal with this crisis today and I don't you to feel obliged to see me

  Vice President Hal Gardner : It would never ever be an obligation on our part Wayne, especially under the circumstances. I just want you to know how sorry I am. Your brother was one of the greatest men to ever occupy the Office: his loss to all of us can't be expressed in words

  Wayne Palmer : Thank you Mr. Vice President

  Vice President Hal Gardner : And I know the President would like to express his condolences to you personally

  Wayne Palmer : That means a lot sir but unfortunately I have a plane to catch. I'm flying David's body back to Washington
