- [being questioned about previous illegal actions taken by CTU]
- Jack Bauer: The difference between success and failure is your ability to adapt to your enemy. The people that I deal with, they don't care about your rules. All they care about is a result.
- Jack Bauer: I am more than willing to be judged by the people you claim to represent. I will let them decide what price I should pay. But please do not sit up there with that smug look on your face and expect me to regret the decisions I have made. Because, sir, the truth is...
- [pause]
- Jack Bauer: I don't.
- Senator Blaine Mayer: Let the record show this is the third day of the Senate hearing: investigating human rights violations against by the recently disbanded Counter Terrorist Unit. Yesterday when we adjourned, we were discussing brutality and torture by CTU agents in the course of their operations. Will the witness state his name?
- Jack Bauer: Jack Bauer
- Senator Blaine Mayer: Mr. Bauer, I don't see your counsel present, is he or she not aware we're about to start?
- Jack Bauer: I've chosen not to retain counsel
- Senator Blaine Mayer: Mr. Bauer, I have to advise you that many of the questions we're about to ask pose to you are of legal nature and might result in answers that will incriminate you
- Jack Bauer: I understand that Senator
- Senator Blaine Mayer: We can postpone to this afternoon if you would like to bring in representation? Something I would "strongly" advise
- Jack Bauer: What is the first question Senator?
- Senator Blaine Mayer: Alright then, let's begin. Mr. Bauer, who is Abraham Hadad?
- Jack Bauer: That information is "classified"
- Senator Blaine Mayer: We represent the people of the United States and we have declassified those files on their behalf. Now I'm going to ask you one more time: who is Abraham Hadad?
- Jack Bauer: He was a member of a terrorist sleeper cell CTU had under surveillance in 2002
- Senator Blaine Mayer: Isn't true that you "detained" Mr. Hadad without due process? And that you used "extreme" interrogation methods on him? Until he answered your questions?
- Jack Bauer: Yes sir
- Senator Blaine Mayer: Would you say you "broke" procedure with this interrogation?
- Jack Bauer: Probably
- Senator Blaine Mayer: "Probably," well that's a very cavalier answer. You don't seem to care about the implications
- Senator Blaine Mayer: [after Jack doesn't respond] well? Mr. Bauer?
- Jack Bauer: I'm sorry Senator, I didn't hear a question
- Senator Blaine Mayer: Alright then, did you torture Mr. Hadad?
- Jack Bauer: According to the definition set forward by the Geneva Convention, yes I did. Senator, why don't I save you some time? It's obvious your agenda is to discredit CTU and generate a series of indictments...
- Senator Blaine Mayer: [Interrupts him] my only "agenda" is to get to "the truth"
- Jack Bauer: I don't think it is sir
- Senator Blaine Mayer: [Sternly] excuse me?
- Jack Bauer: Abraham Hadad had targeted a bus carrying forty five people: ten of which were children. The "truth" Senator, is that I stopped that attack from happening
- Senator Blaine Mayer: [Raises his voice] by torturing Mr. Hadad
- Jack Bauer: By doing what I deemed necessary in order to protect innocent lives
- Senator Blaine Mayer: So basically what you're saying Mr. Bauer is "the ends justifies the means?" And that you above the law?
- Jack Bauer: When I am "activated", when I am brought into a "situation", there is a "reason" and that "reason" is to complete the objectives of my mission "at all costs"
- Senator Blaine Mayer: Even if it means breaking the law
- Larry Moss: [after introducing himself] I'm head of this office: your here because Agent Walker thinks you might be able to help us with this investigation. Now "personally", I have my doubts but I'll be happy to be proven wrong
- Jack Bauer: [Sarcastically] how lucky for me I'm not here applying for a job. Personally I don't care what makes you "happy" so let's get this over with
- Larry Moss: [During a briefing] for the past eight weeks, this office has been investigating a series of technology thefts: software, custom gate array chips, and neural networks. Forensics conclude that the breaks include the same crew but we don't know what their "end game" was until now
- Larry Moss: [Displays Latham's credentials on a monitor] this is Michael Latham: chief engineer on the Classified Infrastructure Portal, Homeland's firewall project. He was abducted ten minutes ago by the same group behind the technology thefts
- Mark Dornan: You think these guys are using Latham to get through the CIP firewall?
- Larry Moss: That's our concern, the hardware could still be used to do just that, Latham's one of the few people who could do it. They "assume" his being forced to work on the device or that his already dead
- Larry Moss: [to Dornan, while concluding the meeting] re-task your people to help in this investigation, see Sean, his got the packets, we're on it
- Renee Walker: [while in her office] the CIP firewall protects every major infrastructure system in this country. If it were breached, telecommunications, transportation, power grids: they would be vulnerable
- Jack Bauer: I'm not active: the DOJ is about to file criminal charges against me, I'm not "exactly" in a position to "help you" with your "situation. As much as I understand how dire it is...
- Renee Walker: [Interrupts him] no I don't think you do. One of the men behind this threat is someone you know
- Jack Bauer: [Before he sits down, after she shows him an image of Tony] that's not possible: Tony Almeida is dead
- Renee Walker: Apparently not
- Jack Bauer: [Sternly] I was there when he "died"
- Renee Walker: And he was rushed away by the EMT's a minute later and you never saw him after that and hours later, you were abducted by the Chinese government
- Jack Bauer: No, if Tony was still alive, I would know, he would've contacted me
- Renee Walker: We recovered this image from a security camera where one of the technology thefts took place: it's time stamped and dated
- Jack Bauer: This image could be manipulated
- Renee Walker: Not this one
- Jack Bauer: I'm sorry, I don't believe it
- Renee Walker: I had Almeida's exhumed. DNA tests "confirmed" that it was not his body that was buried, the evidence is right here, if you want to leave without looking at it: go ahead
- Renee Walker: [while in her office] all we know for sure is that Almeida's is part a home grown terrorist group that's targeting our infrastructure
- Jack Bauer: He could be working undercover: some kind of sting operation, you need to check every federal agency
- Renee Walker: We have, state and city too, Almeida's not working for any of them
- Jack Bauer: There must be some other explanation
- Renee Walker: Yeah there is. His wife was brutally murdered by a faction operating inside the government led by President himself
- Jack Bauer: Everybody involved in that is either in prison or has been killed
- Renee Walker: The government gave Logan a "slap on the wrist." They cut him a deal: sentencing him to house arrest on a hundred acre ranch?
- Jack Bauer: [Irritated] and you think Tony is looking for justice by attacking this country?
- Renee Walker: Almeida's lost everything he and his blaming the government he spent his life serving. Now you know him better than me on how that feels, how far a man might go
- Jack Bauer: Not that "far" and not tony Almeida. There's a logical explanation: it's just "something" you're not "seeing"
- Renee Walker: Help me find Almeida and you can ask him yourself. You know how he thinks, you have the same training and you know the same people
- Jack Bauer: I need complete access to all your source material: everything you've got on this
- Ethan Kanin: [to Taylor after they watch news coverage of ethnic cleansing in Sangala] Juma's perpetrating the worst mass murder of Africa's since Rwanda but if you read the columns...
- President Allison Taylor: [Interrupts him] I do, half of them are against taking action but if we don't, six months from now the same members of the press will be accusing us of "moral" bankruptcy"
- Ethan Kanin: We can always "revisit" the UN option
- President Allison Taylor: The UN is paralyzed Ethan, while people are being butchered by that madman: we have to lead, even if it means "going it alone." I'm not going to have hundreds of thousands of lives on my conscience. General Juma has to be stopped
- Ethan Kanin: He will be Madam President, as soon as you give the order
- President Allison Taylor: Are the Joint Chiefs here yet?
- Ethan Kanin: Their gathering in the Situation room: they'll call as soon as their ready for you
- Henry Taylor: [Over the phone] Chuck, did you find something?
- Chuck Toland: I did but don't get carried away: it doesn't confirm your theory about how Roger died but it is "suspicious"
- Henry Taylor: I'm listening
- Chuck Toland: His girlfriend Samantha received a large lump sum deposit in an offshore bank account three days after Roger's suicide
- Henry Taylor: You mean his "alleged" suicide?
- Chuck Toland: Right, sir
- Henry Taylor: Where did the money come from?
- Chuck Toland: I couldn't tell: looks like it's been "washed." There was no readily identifiable source
- Henry Taylor: So what does this mean?
- Chuck Toland: All it means is she "suddenly" came into four hundred thousand dollars. If I'm going to find out anything "more", I'm going to need to talk to her personally. Is that how you want me to handle it?
- Henry Taylor: No, if she's got anything to hide, she's not going to talk to a private investigator
- Chuck Toland: I agree, so how do you want me to proceed?
- Henry Taylor: I'll talk to her myself: is she still at that brokerage firm?
- Chuck Toland: Yeah, Sloane Kitridge
- Henry Taylor: [Before hanging up] good
- Renee Walker: [Talking privately] I'm going to take Bauer with me
- Larry Moss: No, forget it, I'm not letting him put his hands on a suspect
- Renee Walker: I won't him put his hands on anybody: my "guess" is if his in the room, Schector will talk
- Larry Moss: You saw what he just did
- Renee Walker: I am trying to find Almeida before it's too late, Schector is our best lead
- Larry Moss: So you want to intimidate him with Bauer?
- Renee Walker: Schector knows how far Bauer might go: let's use that
- Larry Moss: Yeah, and if Schector doesn't blink, then what?
- Renee Walker: I'll keep Bauer on a short leash
- Larry Moss: We're the FBI, not CTU, we honor the law, even when it's not "convenient"
- Renee Walker: The "situation" is heating up fast, the President's into it now, she's expecting "results"
- Larry Moss: I know
- Renee Walker: It's your call and I promise you, I can handle Bauer
- Larry Moss: [after thinking it over] alright, I'm holding you responsible and I'm sending back up teams
- Gabriel Schector: [after Jack and Renee enter his apartment] please, have a seat: this should be an interesting conversation. How long has it Jack? Years? How's the Senate "thing" going?
- Gabriel Schector: [When Jack doesn't respond] I heard they dismantled CTU. Don't tell me, it was your fault wasn't it?
- Renee Walker: Mr. Schector, we're not here to make "small talk." We have "business"
- Gabriel Schector: Well, you have my undivided attention
- Renee Walker: Where's Tony Almeida?
- Gabriel Schector: Tony Almeida? In the ground I suppose: unless he was cremated? Didn't he die at CTU a while back?
- Jack Bauer: [Referring to the FBI] their not after you, their willing to "accept" that you didn't know what Tony Almeida was going to do with the component that you helped him steal
- Gabriel Schector: [Leans forward] whoa, whoa, whoa, I didn't know he stole anything and if he did, I knew nothing about it
- Renee Walker: This is far more serious than you "know" Mr. Schector. If you help us find Almeida, I'll see to it that you're kept "in the clear." Otherwise, you could be a co-conspirator to multiple terrorist acts
- Gabriel Schector: oh, well I think this conversation's over, I tried to answer your questions honestly but I think from now on, so you can speak to my lawyers so good bye Jack and good luck with the Senate, I hope it fries your ass
- Renee Walker: Tell me about Schector?
- Jack Bauer: He used to work for a defense contractor out of San Diego until he went on his own
- Renee Walker: Legitimate?
- Jack Bauer: Yeah, at first, then he got greedy: started using his "connections" to acquire technology, selling it on the "gray" market
- Renee Walker: Who'd he sell it to? Terrorists?
- Jack Bauer: No, usually foreign governments usually trying to get around treaties
- Renee Walker: And how'd you and Tony get involved with him?
- Jack Bauer: We arrested him and we "turned" him: he was a great conduit for intel
- Renee Walker: CTU didn't mind you were letting this guy stay in "business?"
- Jack Bauer: CTU didn't know, it was just Tony and me
- Renee Walker: So, you and Tony were "tight?"
- Jack Bauer: Yeah, we were close
- Renee Walker: Alright, it sounds like Tony: whoever thinks his "dead", put together a plan to hijack American security, he contacted Schector to help him with his plan
- Jack Bauer: Yeah
- Renee Walker: Except you don't believe it? That Tony's dirty?
- Jack Bauer: I believe that Tony's alive, I believe his doing something dangerous and we need to find him
- Jack Bauer: [Pointing to Sean's computer screen] there he is: Gabriel Schector
- Larry Moss: Who is he?
- Jack Bauer: He was a supplier, Tony and I used him to buy things "off book"
- Jack Bauer: [to Sean] see if his in your database
- Sean Hillinger: Yeah his there
- Jack Bauer: Is he still in Los Angeles?
- Sean Hillinger: No, according to this ear mark, he came to DC nine weeks ago
- Renee Walker: [to Larry] the thefts started a week after that
- Jack Bauer: [to Larry] that's your guy
- Sean Hillinger: His subletting an office downtown: 1208 Naylor Road, suite 630
- Larry Moss: [to Renee] put a field team together, pick him up. I'll call judge Simons to have a warrant ready
- Jack Bauer: That's a mistake
- Larry Moss: Why?
- Jack Bauer: You don't have time to go through the "motions" with Schector. You serve him with a warrant, he'll call his lawyer, and he'll stall as long as he needs
- Larry Moss: [to Jack] so what's the alternative? Break in and torture him like you used to do? Is that how you ended up in front of a Senate subcommittee?
- Larry Moss: [after Jack stands up] oh, is this how it starts? You get in my face, tighten your jaw, and if I say something you don't like, you slam me against a wall?
- Jack Bauer: You have no idea on what I do: the last time I checked, you subpoenaed me. You want my help? You want my advice? Take it. You don't? Don't, I don't care
- Renee Walker: [Walks up to them, to Jack] you said you used to work with this man Schector, how well does he know you?
- Jack Bauer: [to Renee] he "knows" me
- Renee Walker: [to Larry, implying she wants to talk to him in private] can I talk to you for a second?
