Quotes
Jack Bauer: Listen, I've been thinking a lot about what we talked about. I've made up my mind. I wanna move back to Los Angeles with you.
Kim Bauer: Really?
Jack Bauer: Yeah. I've got a friend who's got a private security firm. Said he'd give me some consulting work. He's also got a place I can rent.
Kim Bauer: (smiling) Dad, I don't know what to say.
Jack Bauer: Come here.
(they hug eachother)
Jack Bauer: You don't have to say anything, just give me a ride to the airport tonight.
Kim Bauer: Wait, you're coming with us tonight?
Jack Bauer: If that's okay.
Jack Bauer: The best I can do for you, Victor, is get you an ambulance. I don't work for the government anymore. I'm out.
Victor Aruz: Oh, this you're gonna wanna hear.
Jack Bauer: Why?
Victor Aruz: Why? Because you're the guy who always does the right thing. There's a big hit going down.
Jack Bauer: On who?
Victor Aruz: President Hassan at the UN. He's getting taken out.
Jack Bauer: When?
Victor Aruz: Today. Before he can sign this thing with Taylor. You see? Told you you'd be interested.
Jack Bauer: You better not be screwing with me.
Victor Aruz: I'm not. I swear, I'm not.
Jack Bauer: Who's the hitter? What's his name?
(shouts) Who's the hitter?
Victor Aruz: I don't know his name. He's Russian or something.
Jack Bauer: Not good enough! Who is the hitter?
Victor Aruz: Look. I know how to find him and stop him before he makes the hit. But I'm not saying another word until I make my deal.
Jack Bauer: You're lucky I'm retired.
(Chloe hands Hastings Victor Aruz's file)
Chloe O'Brian: It was in a proprietary database. That's why it took so long.
Brian Hastings: Still, it shouldn't have thrown you. You've been here a month.
Chloe O'Brian: Almost a month. And I've had to re-learn the interface on every major system here. Everything's changed.
Brian Hastings: You're having trouble adapting, I understand. But I don't think it's a question of your intelligence.
Chloe O'Brian: (sarcastically) Thanks.
Brian Hastings: I think it's ambivalence.
Chloe O'Brian: Ambivalence?
Brian Hastings: I know the only reason you took this job was because your husband was downsized. Am I wrong?
Chloe O Brian: No! I mean, yes! Please, just give me a little more time to get up to speed here. Mr Hastings, I need this job.
Brian Hastings: Fair enough. But I'm all about efficiency, so if your performance doesn't improve, you
may wanna rethink working here. I trust this has been clarified?
Chloe O'Brian: Sure. You really wanted to be more efficient, why don't you just say if I don't catch up soon, I'm gonna be fired.
(Victor lies on the ground after being caught up in a missile attack on a CTU helicopter, having already sustained a gunshot wound)
Victor Aruz: The hitter has someone on the inside. Close to Hassad.
Jack Bauer: Give me a name. Give me a name. Give me a name! Victor. Victor, who's on the inside? Victor. Victor! Come on. Come on. Come on.
(Jack checks Victor's pulse and attempts to resuscitate him)
Jack Bauer: (to Agent Ortiz) He's dead.
