Quotes 

• Gerry Whitehorn : [after entering the room with Wayne standing nearby]  Mr. President, Helen Stupen from the LA Times just called my office, she was just asking about some kind of "toxic accident" at the Chandler Plaza Hotel and if it was connected to the Red alert?

  President Palmer : What exactly did she say?

  Gerry Whitehorn : Not much: she was "fishing"

  Gerry Whitehorn : [Noticing David glances to Wayne]  Mr. President, I appreciate you need to keep certain things from me but this story will get out and when it does, I'll need to have answers

  Wayne Palmer : Gerry's right, the sooner we bring him into the loop, the better he can help with the press

  Wayne Palmer : [after David nods to Wayne, giving him approval to tell him about the infection at the Chandler Plaza Hotel]  a weaponized virus was released into that hotel's ventilation system

  Gerry Whitehorn : [Shocked]  oh my God

  Gerry Whitehorn : [to David]  when will you go public with this?

  President Palmer : Once we're sure the virus has been contained and there's no longer a threat

  Gerry Whitehorn : And how certain are you that it will be contained?

  President Palmer : We're doing everything possible
