Quotes
-
Michelle Dessler : Do you know why Chappelle called this meeting?
Michelle Dessler : I don't know but his told everybody to save their work and get in here
Ryan Chappelle : The information you're about to receive is confidential: it'll stay inside until it's made public which should be in the next few hours. The Cabinet has invoked the twenty-fifth Amendment and removed David Palmer from Office. Jim Prescott is now the President
Tony Almeida : Why?
Ryan Chappelle : That isn't relevant to our charge
Tony Almeida : Yes it is Ryan
Ryan Chappelle : What's your problem Almeida?
Michelle Dessler : I think we all know President Palmer was removed because he didn't want to go along with the bombings and that makes what Jack Bauer is doing relevant
Ryan Chappelle : Bauer's "cried wolf" twice already. His come up with nothing. I've a standing order from District that disallows any further resources from being expended on him
Tony Almeida : Why is everybody so afraid to look at all the sides of this thing? What if Jack Bauer is right? What if the Cypress recording was forged and we're about to bomb three innocent countries? And you're going to tell me that's not relevant?
Ryan Chappelle : Tony, let me first say that your office has done a remarkable job today. There is no way that the people on The Hill are not going to reward every one of you for the role you played in averting disaster
Tony Almeida : What does that have to do with anything?
Ryan Chappelle : Let me finish, the success of this office today is due in a large part to the technical team. The same team that concluded the Cypress audio is untreated, un-forged, and original. There comes a time where you have to let go. Not every hunch works out. Bauer is chasing a "ghost", I can't put it any simpler than that. That's all

Carrie Turner : [Talking privately] in my opinion, Tony Almeida is not fit to run CTU
Ryan Chappelle : Why not?
Carrie Turner : His got Michelle "working off book"
Ryan Chappelle : Doing what?
Carrie Turner : I can't say for sure but I have a feeling the two of them are still trying to help Jack Bauer
Ryan Chappelle : Thank you

Michelle Dessler : You heard what Chappelle said: his not going to let us have a chopper if he knows it's for Jack
Tony Almeida : Yeah but Jack's got Hewitt and Hewitt definitely made that recording. Chappelle can't ignore that
Michelle Dessler : [Before Tony walks over to Chappelle] he can do whatever he wants
Ryan Chappelle : What?
Tony Almeida : Jack Bauer just contacted us
Ryan Chappelle : Really? Where is he?
Tony Almeida : North Hollywood
Ryan Chappelle : What's he doing?
Tony Almeida : His got the guy who forged the Cypress recording and wants to bring him in
Ryan Chappelle : Fine let him
Tony Almeida : His too far away, we need to send a chopper
Ryan Chappelle : We've been through this. I'm done with Bauer, his chasing a trail that leads nowhere. We're onto other things
Tony Almeida : What could be more important than the US launching a war based on false information?
Ryan Chappelle : The thing is, you've been reassigned
Tony Almeida : Reassigned? Where?
Ryan Chappelle : I'll let you know in a few days. For now you can go home
Tony Almeida : You can't reassign me now
Ryan Chappelle : This recording is real, we are going to war. We need to prepare for the domestic response. You have just made yourself a liability I can't afford. You've got fifteen minutes to clean out your desk and get out
