Gregory Itzin: President Charles Logan

Quotes 

• Mike Novick : Mrs. Logan and the Suvarovs have been treated: the chopper's picking them up now

  President Charles Logan : What do I say to my wife?

  Mike Novick : She put you in an impossible situation

  President Charles Logan : It's my job to handle impossible situations, I failed and not for the first time. I should've never given in. I should've ordered back the motorcade

  Mike Novick : Sir, with all due respect: you don't have time for self incrimination here. The terrorist attacked failed, we have to assume they're going to make good on their threat to use the Sentox nerve gas on American soil

  President Charles Logan : Has CTU made any progress? Or are they waiting for "the other shoe to drop"?

  Mike Novick : Their working on leads and working the scene where the motorcade was ambushed

• President Yuri Suvarov : [Talking privately, referring to the attack on the Russian motorcade]  we both know who's responsible for this

  President Charles Logan : We believe it was the same group that attacked Ontario Airport morning but we thought they were all killed in the siege

  President Yuri Suvarov : Obviously you were wrong

  President Charles Logan : The situation is much more serious than you know: these terrorists have possession of a military grade nerve agent and have threatened to use it against the civilian population in Los Angeles

  President Yuri Suvarov : How long have you known about this?

  President Charles Logan : We just found out about it but given this change in circumstances, I'm asking you to honor the terms of our treaty: allow my intelligence and law enforcement agencies to assess whatever intelligence your security people have on these separatists

  President Yuri Suvarov : You will have all that

  President Charles Logan : Thank you

  President Yuri Suvarov : I hope you won't find this offensive but there's something that's been troubling me

  President Charles Logan : What is it?

  President Yuri Suvarov : Mrs. Logan, her behavior, she has not been herself

  President Charles Logan : I'm sure she was very upset on what just happened

  President Yuri Suvarov : Yes, I imagine she would be but I noticed this before the attack: from the moment she entered the car with Anya and me

  President Charles Logan : The truth is that my wife has been under a doctor's care for quite a while now. She suffers from depression and anxiety. It's been very difficult for both of us

  President Yuri Suvarov : I'm sorry to hear that

  President Charles Logan : Thank you

• Audrey Raines : [Over the speakerphone as Bill stands nearby]  DOD just concluded a briefing with Russian intelligence, we were given a name: Vladimir Bierko. He made billions in the post soviet economy, in weapons and oil, he bankrolled several underground radical publications promoting the separatist cause but it's believed his more than just a sympathizer

  President Charles Logan : The Russians thinks his financing these attacks?

  Audrey Raines : They think his directing these attacks himself

  President Charles Logan : Based on what?

  Audrey Raines : A number of communications that were intercepted by the Russian Security Force supported by the fact that Bierko vanished from Russia three months ago

  Bill Buchanan : We posted Bierko's profile to the interagency servers: Homeland Security has issued an emergency brief to all local law enforcement

  President Charles Logan : Do you think there's any hope of finding him before the attack on Tyler Memorial Hospital?

  Bill Buchanan : The most promising lead is a man named Christopher Henderson. Unfortunately, he escaped: Jack Bauer believes there may be files on his computer that could lead us to Bierko. His trying to acquire those files now Sir

  President Charles Logan : Let's hope he succeeds, the country's already suffered three devastating attacks today. We need to stop this madman
