Jack
Bauer: Nina I know your upset.
Nina
Myers: Of course I'm upset Jack what do you expect?
Jack
Bauer: I'm sorry. Look the reason why I had to leave the office is because I
got a call from Walsh. He was meeting another one of our agents, Scott Baylor.
He said he had evidence.
Nina
Myers: That led you to me, I know Jack but you should of thought it through.
Jack
Bauer: Nina listen to me. .............Richard Walsh is dead.
Nina
Myers: What?
Jack
Bauer: He was shot, I watched him die.
Nina
Myers: What is going on?
Jack
Bauer: He had proof that people within our own agency were involved in the hit
on Palmer.
Nina
Myers: Who?
Jack
Bauer: I don't know yet. Before Richard died he gave me that keycard, I hope
that's going to tell us. Jamey's trying to break it down now.
Nina
Myers: You trust Jamey?
Jack
Bauer: Walsh did. I trust you, which means the three of us have to work
together. From this point forward we have to assume that we can trust no one
else.
Nina
Myers: I understand.

Jack

Tony
Almeida: Six.
Jack
Bauer: Phone him, wake him up, bring him in now.

asked Jamey to work off sectors and she's managed to extract one.

Jamey
Farrel: Doesn't say.
Jack
Bauer: Crosscheck it with his schedule tomorrow.
Jamey
Farrel: He's not going anywhere near it.
Jack
Bauer: Has he been near it anytime since he arrived in Los Angeles?
Jamey
Farrel: No.
Jack
Bauer: How about previous visits, connections to family members, anything?
Jamey
Farrel: I can check, it'll take time.
Jack
Bauer: No, let's see what we can peel off, start in here.
Jamey
Farrel: Still just the address on San Fernando road.
Jack
Bauer: How long will it take you to access the next level, minutes or hours?
Jamey
Farrel: Ah...Hours.
Jack
Bauer: We don't have hours, I'll check out the address myself.
Nina
Myers: You want some backup?
Jack
Bauer: No I need you here.
Nina
Myers: Jamey what's wrong?
Jamey
Farrel: I can't access the encryption software.
Nina
Myers: Phones are down too.........It's a lockdown.
Jack
Bauer: It's Mason. Hide the keycard.
