Scene: Agent Jack Bauer stands outside an interrogation room with CTU Director Erin Driscoll. An elderly woman is being questioned.
Bauer: What have you found out so far?
Driscoll: Well, her ID checks out as does her address at 2318 Shady Acres Retirement Villa. We've had her in interrogation room B for 30 minutes but so far, not much else. We may have the wrong suspect.
Bauer: Bullshit, Erin! Nobody flies Delta carrying both nail-tweezers and a set of knitting needles. This granny was part of something bigger, I know it. Let me in there. I can get her to talk.
Driscoll: Sorry Jack, but you know I can't allow that after what happened last time.
Bauer: Dammit Erin, we don't have time for 20 questions.
Driscoll: You used harsh language and raised your voice at that man and upset him greatly. I can't have agents waltzing around calling people terrorists to their face.
Bauer: I watched the man slit the throat of twelve school children and plant a virus on a church bus, for God's sake.
Driscoll: That would have been for a court to decide. Now, I'm going two blocks away to pick up some bagels. I'll be back in 45 minutes.
Bauer: With morning traffic? Erin, this is LA.
Driscoll: True. (grabs a person walking by) Peter, tell my secretary I'm going out for bagels and I'll be back in about 3 hours.
