- Quotes
Jack Bauer: Where are the eleven vials?
Stephen Saunders: [Referring to his laptop computer] you're wasting your time, I'm not foolish enough to have that information on there
Jack Bauer: Where are the vials?
Stephen Saunders: In the hands of dedicated men: true believers
Jack Bauer: Believers in what?
Stephen Saunders: That the greatest threat to world peace comes from this country
Jack Bauer: There's a hotel not far from here, where eight hundred innocent people are dead or dying because of you, were they a threat to your world peace?
Stephen Saunders: The United States must be forced to retreat within its own borders. Those people are simply the "casualties" of war
Jack Bauer: What happened to you?
Stephen Saunders: I was abandoned by the people I worked for, as you will be someday. My message will be heard in less than one hour
Jack Bauer: What're you talking about?
Stephen Saunders: My couriers have been instructed to release the virus and they're in "fail safe" mode where they can't be caught
Jack Bauer: Tell us where they are, we'll stop them
Stephen Saunders: That is possible, if only you agree to my terms
Jack Bauer: What are your terms?
Stephen Saunders: I have a private jet in Van Nuys Airport, I need to be on it with a Presidential guarantee of safe passage to North Africa
Jack Bauer: That's not going to happen
Stephen Saunders: Then hundreds of thousands will die. I know what you're thinking, the Bosnian secret police worked on me for two years and couldn't break me, and do you really think you'll be able to do it in less than an hour? Get me on that plane, you don't have a choice
These things wouldn't and shouldn't have happened. Saunders would not jeopardize all he worked years to achieve nor would he be in the mental state that allow him to be this sentimental in the end. Sherrie, the ultimate schemer, wouldn't jeopardize her position either.
Ås I said, two very disappointing turn of events in this show, a real cop-outs. If that's not enough, Jack also claims "Tony should get a medal" and wants him back on the case instead of charged as a criminal. Excuse me? The lets helps a mass murderer (Saunders) escape, perhaps sacrificing the lives of literally millions of Americans for one person....and he's a hero????
Man, this outstanding season is blowing it in the end. It actually has me rooting for the supposed good guys to lose which, of course, won't happen.
To make matters worse, it looks like the President is going to get off the hook, too, which is not justice in this instance.
Booooooooooo!
(Hey - like many of you folks, I've invested a lot of time and emotion watching this season. I want everything to go my way, too!)
