CIA Deputy Director Jake Keaton: How did we not know about this? This is an official order. "In the event all members in the line of succession are deceased, the Continuity of Government Subcommittee, or C.O.G.S., shall assume power."
[looking around the room]
CIA Deputy Director Jake Keaton: Why is everyone so damn calm?
Kurt Weller: I don't know, but Shepherd knew about the subcommittee. She put us here.
CIA Deputy Director Jake Keaton: How could she have?
Kurt Weller: Every time a tattoo exposed corruption, somebody lost their job. I replaced Mayfair at the FBI, you replaced Carter at the CIA.
[glancing over at two others]
Kurt Weller: Those two are now deputy directors of the CDC and the DEA.
CIA Deputy Director Jake Keaton: So all the tattoos were leading to this?
Kurt Weller: Shepherd said something about a reset. We are that reset.
CIA Deputy Director Jake Keaton: We're Shepherd's new government.
Kurt Weller: Which means that she's gonna try to wipe out the current administration, today. We can't stay down here.
