Quotes
-
President Allison Taylor : [Over the phone] we were scheduled to resume our discussions
President Omar Hassan : I'm late, I apologize: the events of this evening...
President Allison Taylor : [Interrupts him] the events of this evening may be more important than ever that we complete our work on this treaty, I need to know your intentions
President Omar Hassan : My "intentions"?
President Allison Taylor : The "crackdown" on your countrymen, I've been informed you've even arrested one of the members of your delegation
President Omar Hassan : That's an internal matter
President Allison Taylor : No, sir it is not. Less than an hour ago, I assured delegates from two dozen countries that you were still our best of hope for peace. I "personally" guaranteed them. You observed the letter and the spirit of this agreement we're signing
President Omar Hassan : And I will
President Allison Taylor : Do I have your word on that?
President Omar Hassan : Within the next few hours, the arrests will stop. I'm taking measures to assure that
President Allison Taylor : And the delegate you've taken into custody?
President Omar Hassan : He will be released or charged: you have my word
President Allison Taylor : [Before hanging up] thank you

President Omar Hassan : Did he talk?
Tarin Faroush : No sir. Jamot denies knowledge of the plot against you
President Omar Hassan : How "forceful" was the interrogation?
Tarin Faroush : Very, I did it myself. I don't believe his involved with your brother in any way
President Omar Hassan : You know Jamot has connections with extremists?
Tarin Faroush : A cousin in the opposition party, that's all
President Omar Hassan : [Stands up from his desk] if he won't talk, we'll have to force the issue: he has a wife and children back home. Is that correct?
Tarin Faroush : [Referring to the ages of Jamot's children] a boy 9, a girl 7
President Omar Hassan : Have Security Services arrest him: apply whatever pressure is necessary to make Jamot talk
President Omar Hassan : [after he doesn't respond] you have something to say?
Tarin Faroush : Yes sir. I do. You rallied us around the promise that you would put an end to such tactics. I will do everything humanly possible to find your brother but please do not ask me to violate the principles that you and I stand for
President Omar Hassan : [Realizing his mistake] thank you, with my wife gone, I have no one to speak the "truth" to me anymore. Check everyone's computer and phone records again: see to it that nothing was overlooked
Tarin Faroush : Of course
