"Look, if they have someone who even mentions your name... and the word "radiologic" in the same sentence..." " we're screwed." " My fate... is in the hands of Allah." "You look stunning, Vlenko." "Right out of GQ." "Sorry to be a fashion-smasher, Vlenko." "Put that on." " Makes me look fat." " Vlenko, you are fat." "Come on." "What the hell are you doing?" " Shots!" " Shots!" "Seattle, this is SE-21." "We've taken sniper fire in the alleyway." "Witness down." " Fulbar, you see him?" " No!" "Damn it!" "My client is a victim of ethnic profiling and nothing more, Your Honor." "Now, I'd like to think that this isn't Nazi Germany or Stalinist Russia, but..." "Counsel, we're here today to determine your readiness for trial." " Is the Prosecution ready to proceed?" " Yes, Your Honor." "Just a minute, Your Honor." "I've just been informed that our key witness has met with an untimely end." " Mr. Kahn." " Khan." "Your Honor." "Mr. Khan, you're free to go." "However, I suggest that you don't get picked up for..." "Found this on the rooftop two blocks away." "Is Mr. Simms or Miss Alrazi here?" "That guy's working on a dirty bomb and it is not a high school science project." "Suspended from his teaching duties?" "For what?" "My husband has been serving that institution for 17 years." "Well, I'll tell you what I'm going to do." "I'm going to resign my position in protest... and then I'm going straight to the media!" "Do you hear me?" " Is there anything I can do, Mrs. Adel?" " No." "Please, both of you..." "I'm just not fit for human contact right now." "It's okay, Mum." "Don't worry." "He'll be okay." "Don't worry." "We'll get him out of there, all right?" "He doesn't even have his medication." "Dad, you have to do something." "Mel, it doesn't sound right." "I'll get into it." "Now, how does Josef's father spell his first name?" "F-A-Z..." "U" " L. Fazul." "I'll make some calls." "Mel, are you okay?" "Yeah." "No." "Is anybody okay right now?" "Agent Jane Fulbar?" "Special Agent Roland..." "Office of Professional Responsibility." "What you're doing here is illegal." "He has a restraining order against you and you know it." "You'll probably be suspended for this, maybe more." "We're going to the Federal Building now." "Do you know what that guy is working on?" "You wanna follow us or you wanna come in one of our cars?" "In bracelets." "Let's go." "For a non-drinking, respectful Islamic man like yourself... that morphine must've felt like... 27 virgins, hey, Hessan?" "I'm no doctor, but I know this:" "That morphine's worn off." "You're a man in great pain." "Now, this... this is non-pain." "This is a double-dose. 54 virgins." "We know about your dirty bomb." "Only with your Russian friend no longer with us... you'll probably have to go with waste as originally planned." "Where are you keeping that waste?" "If you've lost your English skills, there's someone else who can use this." "Jamaitja... brings from Vancouver." "Jamaitja?" "Your friend here." "He's in Canada now?" "One more question, and then I plunge." "Where in Seattle does your cell meet?" "An address, Mohammed." " Not Seattle." "Oakland." " Where in Oakland?" "I've been in Afghanistan for six months." "I don't know." "Please." "Detainee had a fly on his face." "I was just gonna get rid of it, sir." "Let him be." "Understand the sentiment, though." "They're all coming through." "If it relates to Homeland Security, we've got it." "All of it." "The new weapon of war." "Not a ship, not a plane." "A computer." " Information." " It's a new world, Ted." "New kind of war." " Yeah." " Admiral." " Bradley Brand." "I'm Agency." " Good to meet you." " Sol Binder." " Hey." "I just got back from Guantanamo." "I hear this is the new information clearinghouse for homeland threats." "We're getting there." "What can we do for you?" "Are you aware of an Al Qaeda cell operating out of Oakland, California?" "They're playing with a dirty bomb." "LAX is the intended target." "We knew they were sniffing around radiologic material." "We didn't know it was LAX." " Excuse me." " Tell me what you've got." "I've got some data on where the dirty material may be coming from... but not enough for an interdiction." "I was hoping you guys could fill in some blanks." " I'll do my best." " What do you know about this man?" "His name's Jamaitja." "He's got Canadian papers." "I don't know." "Let's feed him into the big boy, see what we've got." "Yeah, honey, I got the call just a few minutes ago." "Oh, Dad." "Where was he?" "Some unused juvenile facility outside of San Jose." "Is he being released?" "There are some things he'll have to explain later on... but there's really nothing to hold him on." "They're gonna release him now." "Dad." " Thank you." " Mel..." "I had a little difficulty getting this number." " Someone at the dorm room said..." " I got to call the Adels, okay?" "They've been through hell." "All right, I'll call you back." "I love you, Daddy." " What the hell are those for?" " Sorry about your suspension." "Come on in." "Well, it's bad." "Khan got another lawyer, and he's raising holy hell." "And it's not my first offence." "I think they're gonna fire me." "Oh, man." "Where are they bringing him from, Antarctica?" "My dad said he was somewhere near San Jose." "It's a long drive." "Anyone from the family of Adel?" "Dr. Fazul Adel?" "Yes." " You're related to Fazul Adel?" " Yes, I am his wife." "This is his stepson, Josef." "I'm afraid I have some bad news for you." "Your husband committed suicide." "This is insane." "Dr. Adel didn't do anything." "Nothing." "Melissa, honey, please." "I don't know how Dad expects any of these people to help him." "Melissa, will you talk to your father?" "He's as upset about this as you are." "Fine." " Mel..." " You're a part of all this, Dad." "I used to be proud to be a McKee." " I should go out there." " It's better if I go alone, Ted." "At least until she calms down." "... findings are preliminary." "A member of Sen. Daschle's staff is being treated for exposure to anthrax." "Members of Congress are asking..." "Heinhoff." "... what can possibly happen next." "Khan is fair game again?" "Isn't that just supreme." "He's probably in freaking Bahrain by now." "Oakland?" "1893 Lake Merritt Boulevard." "Yeah, I got it." "I'll catch the next flight." "Good guy." "Don't shoot." "Come on in." " A spook?" "A real one?" " Yeah." "Why?" "I just never met one of you guys before." "Well, from here on in, I think we'll all be working a lot closer." "Amen." "Frank Heinhoff, Seattle office." "Bradley Brand." "Kromberg Station." "You guys get any action over there?" "The place has been empty for two days." "You hungry?" " Yeah." " Hold on." "We got some action." "They're speaking Arabic." "Okay, they're meeting, the others are late..." "We might be able to grab their whole damn cell." "You guys have something to do with locating this place?" "No." "It's this new outfit, Homeland." "I had some intel." "They cross-referenced it with stuff they had..." " and this address popped up." " Oh, yeah." "Here we go." "I don't see Khan." "You're looking for that son of a bitch, too?" "Hold on." "They have a cell call." "They know we're here." "We've been burned." "Execute." "Do you have a point of origination on that signal?" "They're a block from here." "FBI!" "Get against the wall!" " Show me your hands!" " Put your hands behind your head!" "Turn around!" "How much do you want to bet Saif Khan's prints are all over that thing?" "Damn it!" "Al Qaeda cell boss from Hamburg." "According to Langley, he's carrying new marching orders... to his brothers in Pakistan." "Boy, I'd sure like to know what route he's taking." "Yeah, Langley, too." "I think they'd like to drop him a nice card or note or something." " You guys find anything?" " Yeah." "Blank American passports." "They're perfect looking." "Training camp locations, list of camp grads already stateside..." " It's a goldmine, sir." " Right." "Tell the mortuary boys to do a good job in here." "I want matched body parts in every bag." "Hope these arms and legs got serial numbers on them." "They must've dropped a damn thermobaric up here." "Yeah, I guess." " Somebody taking x-rays down here?" " He's on dialysis." "Son of a bitch." "Just need to see your driver's license for a sec." "Have a nice stay in America, sir." "Put your hands behind your head!" "Hands behind your head!" "Sweetheart." "I don't want to talk to you." "Melissa." "He left me, Mum." " Baby, I am so sorry." " I loved him." "It's really clicking out there." "It's working better than I ever dreamed." "We have a problem, Sol." "There are people being held... because they have dark skin and the wrong accents." "I know, it will clean itself up." "It'll just take some time..." "Not good enough." "Damn it, Sol." "The people of this country are losing their civil rights... and the bad guy's already won." "No." "Now you're preaching to the choir." "You remember when I said we don't want a national Gestapo?" "I meant it." "Let me see if I can't get those big boys to help us... speed up the processing of these names... separate the good apples from the bad." "I'm on this thing, Ted." "I'm on it." "Thanks, Sol." "In four short months, our nation has comforted the victims...  begun to rebuild New York and the Pentagon...  rallied a great coalition...  captured, arrested and rid the world of thousands of terrorists...  destroyed Afghanistan's terrorist training camps...  and freed a country from brutal oppression." "I'm happy that you're back." "I don't know if I'm happy that we're co-workers again." "We're spies." "We can get away with anything." "... and terrorist leaders who urged followers to sacrifice their lives...  are running for their own." "America and Afghanistan are now allies against terror." "We'll be partners in rebuilding that country." "And this evening we welcome the distinguished interim leader...  of a liberated Afghanistan:" "Chairman Hamid Karzai." "Guess what?" "I'm not a mortician anymore." "The President's speaking, jackass." "... and use technology to track the arrivals and departures...  of visitors to the United States." "Homeland Security will make America not only stronger...  but in many ways, better." "For too long, our culture has said, "If it feels good, do it. "" "Now America is embracing a new ethic, and a new creed:" ""Let's roll. "" "She won't return my calls." "Time, honey." "Just have to give her a little time." "We have known freedom's price." "We have shown freedom's power." "And in this great conflict, my fellow Americans...  we will see freedom's victory." "Thank you all." "May God bless." "I guess I'll never be a part of this fight again, will I?" "We don't know that yet." "I know you are the best of the best." "Which probably means you people are..." " the ones with the most to lose." " How's that, sir?" "Because if you jump ship and come aboard ours... which may or may not stay afloat... you may not be welcomed back." "And we could sink." "Congress hasn't approved our existence yet." " Yes?" " Lf we sign on with Homeland... would we be restricted to working only domestically?" "No." "In that we've been given no official mandate... we've sort of made up our own." "This has to be both a domestic and an international operation." "Those of you who've worked the foreign venue, you'll continue to work there." "Those who worked the domestic side, you'll continue to work here." "But the overall singular mission... is the defense of the American homeland." "That's about it." "I won't blame any of you for not joining us." "But I would appreciate a response within 24 hours." "We need to know ASAP." "Thank you." "I'm in." "I'm in, too." " I'm in." " I'm in, sir." " Question, sir." " Yes." " Osama bin Laden." "High on our hit list?" " Top of the list." " Old dog, new tricks." " Welcome aboard." "Did that just happen?" "I did tell them how tippy all this is, right?" "Yeah." "You told them." "Talk to you alone a moment, sir?" "It's kind of important, Admiral." "At least, to me." "Bad news." "They're not backing off." "You don't resign quietly... they'll indict you on abuse under the color of authority." " Thanks." "I kind of knew that." " There's some other bad news." "Are you a sadist?" "We're still partners." "Really?" "I used his credit card to make a donation." "I assume they found it." "I feel nothing." "I didn't hate or love him." " He was nothing like my real father." " You did not know your real father." "I've read about him." "I've spoken to my mother about him many times." "She never knew the glory that filled that man." "The struggle within, the struggle without against the Kafirs." "He never lost God in either struggle." "Never once." "I wish he could have seen me." "With that rifle?" "That Russian pig?" "You were filled with your father that day." "You would have made him so proud to heart." "Except for this." "Your mission is to assimilate, Josef." "What is this fuzz?" "Me not shaving, nothing more." "That relationship of yours." "Renew it." "Fan its flames." "Do you have any idea how valuable that is for our future?" "Melissa." "Please forgive me." "I'll never leave you again." "Ever." "Ripped by:" "SkyFury"
