Quotes
-
President Allison Taylor : I cannot begin to say how relieved I am that you survived this terrible attack, Omar.
President Omar Hassan : Thank you.
President Allison Taylor : I'm mortified this outrage happened on U.S. soil.
President Omar Hassan : I'm the one who should be embarrassed. My brother Farhad did this. He betrayed me, and worse, he put you in harm's way. I should have realized what he's up to.
President Allison Taylor : We can only be betrayed by the people we trust. He fooled all of us.
-
President Omar Hassan : Agent Ortiz.
Cole Ortiz : Mr. President.
President Omar Hassan : I want to thank you for saving my life.
Cole Ortiz : You're welcome, sir, but it wasn't just me. If it weren't for Jack Bauer and Chloe O'Brian, I wouldn't have been in place to make the save.
President Omar Hassan : Well, I'll thank them, too, but you risked your life for me. You put yourself between me and the bomb. My family and I are in your debt.
-
President Allison Taylor : Mr. President, we're doing everything we can to apprehend Farhad, but while he's at large, I'd understand it if you wished not to continue the talks. However, I hope that I can persuade you to reconvene. We have come so far together, and to let this moment slip...
President Omar Hassan : Would be to hand Farhad victory. I will not give him the satisfaction. If you are all ready to continue with these talks, so am I.
President Allison Taylor : [relieved] I am delighted to hear it.

Brian Hastings : [while in his office] Forensics confirmed the composition of the radioactive material: it's a U235, ninety four percent pure weapons grade uranium, if you have an explanation sir? I'm eager to hear it
President Omar Hassan : Before we started the peace initiative, my country was to developing a nuclear weapon
Brian Hastings : Yes, our intelligence was aware of that
President Omar Hassan : Then were you also aware we could not enrich enough material to arm it?
President Omar Hassan : [after Hastings nods] Soon after our countries began negotiating a peace process, my brother came up to me and said someone approached him with weapons grade uranium
Brian Hastings : Who?
President Omar Hassan : Someone who had access to decommissioned stockpiles
Brian Hastings : You think it was the same Russians who tried to kill you today?
President Omar Hassan : Yes I do, I told my brother to stay away from them but obviously he had other plans
Brian Hastings : The nuclear material you were offered, do you have any idea where it is?
President Omar Hassan : That man was contaminated recently, doesn't that mean the materials are here in the US? Farhad always used to tell me our country would always be at the mercy of the west unless we become a nuclear power: we must find the Russians before they can get the uranium to my brother
Brian Hastings : We'll do what we have to sir
President Omar Hassan : I'll notify our security forces to cooperate fully

Meredith Reed : Thank God you're alright
President Omar Hassan : I was lucky
Meredith Reed : I heard it was Farhad who tried to have you killed? I can't believe he would betray you
President Omar Hassan : He betrayed both of us
Meredith Reed : And then I betrayed you
President Omar Hassan : What are you talking about?
Meredith Reed : I told them about us, I was scared. I panicked, I hope you can forgive me
President Omar Hassan : There's nothing to forgive
Meredith Reed : But you stood by me: you didn't deny me and you had a million reasons to. Before that moment... I never knew what you really felt for me
President Omar Hassan : You should have, didn't I make it clear?
