Eyal Podell: Ryan Burnett

Quotes 

• Colonel Iké Dubaku : [Over the phone]  it's me, have you made the preparations?

  Ryan Burnett : Almost, it's been tricky clearing a flight corridor ever since FAA still has most private and commercial aircrafts grounded

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : I think you'll manage: the arrangements are two passengers

  Ryan Burnett : Just as you requested, you sure you want to leave now Colonel? I can't "imagine" General will be "pleased" to learn that your abandoning your mission

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : The mission is over, I've done what I can. If that is not enough for Juma, then the hell with him

  Ryan Burnett : I've got your passports and itinerary already in hand: we'll meet in our usual spot in half an hour, I'll bring them

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : No, we'll meet in the lobby of the Roosevelt Continental Hotel

  Ryan Burnett : That's not a good idea, it'll be crowded there this time

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : I know, I want to make it earlier. I'll see you in fifteen minutes

  Ryan Burnett : Alright

• Ryan Burnett : [Meeting privately, slides the document across the table inside an envelope]  passports and travel itinerary: Hawker Siddeley 748 is fueling at Taft Airfield. Get ready to fly within a half hour, we'll get you to the Cayman Islands. You shouldn't have any trouble getting to Belize from there

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : I need a car to get to the airfield, and a driver

  Ryan Burnett : I assumed you had your own transportation?

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : It's not for me

  Ryan Burnett : I see

  Ryan Burnett : [Referring to Marika]  for the girl, I'm not sure I can find someone I trust on such short notice

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : [Noticing one of Burnett's men]  really? What about your man at the bar?

  Ryan Burnett : Excuse me?

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : Or one of the two men on the balcony watching us now? Or the two in the black town car waiting for me to leave? You think I'm a fool? I know you people see me as a "liability" now

  Ryan Burnett : These men are here to guarantee your safety: not threaten it

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : [Amused]  "guarantee my safety", how nice, you say it with such "sincerity"

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : [Leans forward on the table]  I want you to take this message back with you: if anything should happen to me on my way out of the country, an "accident", an assassination attempt, anything, the plane you were so generous to arrange "decides" to explode, the data file with all the names, the bank transactions of all those involved will be sent to the Justice Department

  Ryan Burnett : That is completely unnecessary

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : Same holds true to Marika Donoso. I swear to you she knows nothing of this: she's no threat to you. Make sure your driver knows this before he bring her to me. Do you understand what I'm saying?

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : [after Burnett is silent, sternly]  I want you to tell me you understand what I'm saying to you so there's no "mistakes"

  Ryan Burnett : I understand

  Colonel Iké Dubaku : [Before leaning back in his chair]  good, the one thing I have learned to be in the company of mercenaries is that ultimately they care about nothing but their own survival

• Ryan Burnett : [Over the phone]  yes?

  Sean Hillinger : Hey, I took care of Bauer and Walker, their "pinned down"

  Ryan Burnett : Why am I being brought in on this so last minute?

  Sean Hillinger : Moss is running this OP on he's own: it took me some time to tap in on his phone line. His on with Metro right now

  Ryan Burnett : Can you at least disable the tracking signal his using to follow the girl?

  Sean Hillinger : No, not from my console but judging from the frequency, their using her cell as the tracker

  Ryan Burnett : Alright, good work

  Sean Hillinger : You told me once Dubaku served his purpose, you'd take him out: why are we still helping him?

  Ryan Burnett : He said he'd expose us using the names and accounts of everyone involved

  Sean Hillinger : Including mine?

  Ryan Burnett : [Before hanging up]  I mean "everyone." We don't know where the file is, you'd better just "pray" he gets away
