Nina Myers: Walsh isn't answering.

Jack Bauer: As soon as you reach him you find me. (Walks over to Tony's work station) Is this the crew list from the 747?

Tony Almeida: Yeah. You want me to contact NSP?

Jack Bauer: No for right now let's assume this was not an accident.

Tony Almeida: Why?

Jack Bauer: The flight originated out of Berlin, that's where Walsh said the shooter was coming from. I need you to give me a breakdown of the passenger list.

Tony Almeida: Jack! You want to tell me what is going on around here tonight?

Jack Bauer: What's going on? Besides a 747 blowing up out of the sky and a threat on a presidential candidate's life?

Tony Almeida: Yeah, besides that... Look, George Mason comes here, disappears in your office for a half hour then he limps out. What is that all about?

Nina Myers: Tell him Jack... Fine then, I will.

Jack Bauer: Nina!

Nina Myers: The three agents that Jack brought down last year were close friends of Mason's. He's been looking for some payback ever since. He choose tonight to make some pretty bad remarks about Jack as well as some other people in this office... Now, in case you didn't know Jack doesn't have a lot of patience.

Tony Almeida: All right I'll get you that list within the hour.

Jack Bauer: Thank you. (Walks to Nina) That was quite a story.

Nina Myers: Better than the truth.

Tony Almeida: That's funny when you came to Jacks rescue back there with that little performance. It reminded me of something.

Nina Myers: Yeah what?

Tony Almeida: Remember that time we came into work together about a month ago. Mason said this smart ass remark. You came up with a great story, early breakfast meeting district three. I was really convinced on how good a liar you are.

Nina Myers: What's your point Tony?

Tony Almeida: I still want to know what happened up there with Jack and Mason.

Nina Myers: I all ready told you.

Richard Walsh: Scott take it easy.

Scott Baylor: No I'm not going to take it easy, I'm not. I should of never have called you.

Richard Walsh: If you have evidence that someone in the agency is involved with the hit on Palmer, then you had no choice.

(Baylor hands Walsh a keycard)

Scott Baylor: Here......It's all yours. I'm out.

Richard Walsh: Wait.....wait.......A keycard?

Scott Baylor: Yeah, a simple keycard we use to get in and out of the building.

Richard Walsh: I don't get it.

Scott Baylor: These cards can hold a lot of data. On this one I found references filled with information on the Palmer hit.

Richard Walsh: What's the point?

Scott Baylor: To smuggle in restricted information.

(Walsh and Baylor start walking back to the elevator)

Richard Walsh: I need you to be reachable throughout the day.

Scott Baylor: You said after tonight I'm done.

Richard Walsh: I can't help it Scott. Until we defuse this situation I have to be able to find you.

Scott Baylor: I found out that there's an agency conspiracy to kill David Palmer. When I realized what I stumbled on to, I put my wife and kid on a plane. I couldn't even tell them why..........I've been with the agency long enough to know what I'm dealing with here.

Richard Walsh: Scott, what you did took a lot of courage. All I'm asking is that you hang in there a little longer.

Scott Baylor: I did my part, get someone else.

Richard Walsh: There is no one else.

Scott Baylor: You got me for another twenty four hours then I'm joining my family.
