Quotes
-
Tom Lennox : [Meeting privately] you sure it's safe to talk in here?
Reed Pollock : Yes, this area is currently unmonitored
Tom Lennox : Alright, you intimated you had some plan on dealing with the President
Reed Pollock : Palmer's refusal to implement your proposals will unquestionably lead to the loss of many more American lives and I and many others like me who love this country will not stand idly and let that happen
Tom Lennox : So what is it you propose?
Reed Pollock : I think you know
Tom Lennox : I need to hear it
Reed Pollock : "Definitive action." We are in the middle of a national crisis and he is in over his head: his brought this on himself. Before you start "reconsidering" reporting me, just know I will deny we ever had this conversation
Tom Lennox : I'm not "reconsidering", I know what your saying is necessary, just cannot believe it's come to this. Who else is involved?
Reed Pollock : You don't need to know that
Tom Lennox : I'd like to know who I'm dealing with
Reed Pollock : Right now, you're dealing with me
Tom Lennox : Vice President Daniels, is he involved?
Reed Pollock : No, the Vice President doesn't know anything about this but we do know he shares our "sentiment" regarding the current "state of affairs" and he will enact your initiatives once he has the power to do so
Tom Lennox : You seem certain this is going to work
Reed Pollock : More so with your help, I need the President's itinerary: specifically in regards to Assad's televised address. I do not have the proper clearance, I need you to access it
Tom Lennox : Why? Why do you need this? Damn it. We are talking about removing the President of the United States, do not keep me "in the dark" here
Reed Pollock : I never said I was the architect of this, I'm just a conduit. Besides, for your sake it is very important we maintain a certain level of "plausible deniability." The less you know, the better
Tom Lennox : [Before leaving] I'll get you that itinerary
