- Quotes
Dalia Hassan: I have just heard something that is very disturbing
President Allison Taylor: What did you hear?
Dalia Hassan: That the Russian government or people in the Russian government were "involved" in the murder of my husband
President Allison Taylor: Where did you hear this?
Dalia Hassan: My daughter received a phone call from the journalist Meredith Reed
President Allison Taylor: Have you spoken to her yourself?
Dalia Hassan: No, I've tried everything but have been unable to reach her. I came here to ask for your help to find Ms. Reed, I need to know if there's any "truth" to what she said
President Allison Taylor: We heard a "rumor" about the Russians being involved as well
Dalia Hassan: And you didn't tell me?
President Allison Taylor: No because we found nothing backing it up: it was just a frivolous accusation
Dalia Hassan: Whatever she may be, Meredith Reed is not a "frivolous" woman. She came to me, "someone" who would have every reason to doubt her
President Allison Taylor: [Clears her throat] I know that you want answers but we are signing the agreement in less than an hour
Dalia Hassan: I feel like you're not listening to me. Before I sign the treaty with... people who may have murdered my husband, I need help finding this woman... please
President Allison Taylor: I will do the best I can in the time we have left
Dalia Hassan: I don't think I'm making myself clear: until I determine her allegations are true, I would not sign this treaty
President Allison Taylor: Please... be reasonable
Dalia Hassan: [Adamantly] this is my position, I will not change my mind
President Allison Taylor: Then you leave me no choice, I had Meredith Reed arrested
Dalia Hassan: Why?
President Allison Taylor: Because her allegations would be too damaging
Dalia Hassan: That doesn't make sense: you wouldn't arrest someone for making "false allegations"
Dalia Hassan: [When Taylor doesn't respond] unless they aren't "false"? You knew? You knew the Russians were behind my husband's death and you said nothing?
President Allison Taylor: I am so sorry... it was an impossible situation, I was trying to protect you
Dalia Hassan: [Raises her voice] protect me? You betrayed me
President Allison Taylor: [Raises her voice] we are about to complete the most important diplomatic action in generations: your husband sacrificed his life to preserve the treaty
Dalia Hassan: [Angrily] how dare you invoke my husband, he never would've stood for this. This treaty happened because he trusted you and even though every fiber in my being wanted to go home, I carried on because I trusted you but not anymore. I would not make peace with the people who murdered my husband are with you: there will be no agreement. I will be entering a formal complaint with the United Nations demanding that you release Ms. Reed and disclose whatever evidence you've kept from me and from the rest of the world
President Allison Taylor: [as Hassan tries to leave, sternly] stop. In one hour, you will stand beside me in the council chamber and you will sign the treaty your husband and I agreed to
Dalia Hassan: I will not
President Allison Taylor: You will because if you don't, my Administration will disclose hard indisputable evidence that agents inside your intelligence service attempted to detonate a nuclear device on our soil, which will give me all the justification I need to retaliate against the IRK with the full force of the American military. It will be decades before your country recovers
President Allison Taylor: [after Hassan is speechless] but it doesn't need to come to that: all you have to do is sign the agreement
