The Best Jane Saunders Quotes

Jane: [while on their way to meet Saunders to exchange Michelle for Jane as Tony drives] I know my father released the virus in the hotel, people died but do you really think he'll do what his saying? Release it all over the country?
Jack: If we don't stop him: yes
Jane: Why? There has to be a reason his doing all this?
Jack: When I worked with your father, he dedicated himself to saving lives of innocent people. Something's happened to him, I don't know what but now he believes our government betrayed him
Jane: Is he right?
Jack: There's no easy answer to that. The work your father did often demanded it, he made seemingly impossible sacrifices, and whatever happened to your father in Bosnia was obviously a sacrifice he wasn't willing to make. I'm sorry

Stephen: [Over the phone, while CTU tries to trace the call] there's man named Jack Bauer with you there, isn't there?
Stephen: What dad?
Stephen: Hand the phone over to him
Jane: Dad?
Stephen: You heard me
Jack: I'm on the line
Jane: You know how many vials I have and what I'm capable of
Jack: You know what I'm capable of too

Jane: I know what's going to happen and I know you can stop it: please
Stephen: Why are they using you to manipulate me?
Jane: Despite everything that's happened, I love you and I'm asking you please don't let this happen. This doesn't make any sense
Stephen: It doesn't make sense to you because you haven't seen what I've seen. You don't understand
Jane: I know you think what happened to you is the government's fault and maybe it is but the people that are going to die are innocent
Stephen: That is a tragedy but that has to happen for things to change and they must change
Jane: How can you do something like this?
Stephen: I'm doing it for your sake
Jane: For my sake?
Stephen: For you and your children and after it's all over the world will be a better place
Jane: [Holds his hands] please dad? Don't do this
Stephen: I don't expect you to understand now but one day you will and you'll look back and thank me for what I've done
Jane: [Immediately walks away] oh my God

Jane: I know your lying to me, I know you're not taking me to Division
Tony: You'll be fine, alright?
Jane: At least tell me where we're going?
Jane: [Raises her voice after he remains silent] where are you taking me?
Tony: Back to your father
Jane: My father? Why?
Tony: His holding my wife hostage: he'll kill her if I don't take you back to him
Jane: So basically you're kidnapping me
Tony: I'm sorry
Jane: After everything he's done, how can you be sure he'll do what he says? How do you know he won't kill your wife anyway?
Tony: I don't have a choice, I wish I did but I don't

Jane: [while in an interrogation room] why am I being treated like I've done something wrong?
Tony: I apologize for that: we're just trying to keep you safe
Jane: This is the one place I'm not safe. I've been thinking about it, you need me to get to my father so threatening to kill me or harm me is the only tool you have to use against him, tell me I'm wrong
Tony: [Sits down] you're right, we need your father to believe we'll do anything to get him but we're not going to hurt you. I give you my word
Jane: Your word?
Tony: Yeah, my word. I run this office and I will personally protect you
Jane: What about Kim's father? They told her his on his way back here
Tony: What about him?
Jane: He scares me, I got the feeling his going to hurt me
Tony: Nobody's going to hurt you alright?
Jane: [Before Tony's cell phone rings] I wish I could believe you
Tony: [Answers the phone] Almeida
Stephen: Is Jane around?
Tony: [Walks to the other side of the interrogation room] yeah
Stephen: Where is she?
Tony: She's here
Stephen: Put her on
Tony: No, you have my wife, I want to talk to her first
Stephen: You don't give me orders
Tony: [Whispers] you're wrong, I have your daughter which means I'm in charge. Now if you so much touch my wife, I will slit Jane's throat
Stephen: Hold on
Michelle: [after Saunders gives her the phone] Tony, it's me
Tony: Michelle
Michelle: They won't let me say much. I'm fine, I'm being treated well, don't let them do this...
Tony: [after Saunders grabs the phone away from her] Michelle?
Stephen: Let me speak to my daughter Mr. Almeida
Tony: [to Jane as he connects his cell phone into a portable speakerphone] it's your father, he wants to speak to you
Jane: Dad?
Stephen: Yes Jane, it's me
Jane: Their saying horrible things about you
Stephen: That's what they do: don't believe any of it
Jane: The virus in the hotel that's killing all those people, you didn't do that. Please tell me you didn't do that
Stephen: Listen to me, the US government distorts the truth and destroys lives. Don't listen to any of it, it's all lies
Jane: Then you didn't do it?
Stephen: I never do something without a good cause: know that
Tony: [Disconnects his cell phone from the speakerphone, referring to exchanging Michelle for Jane] that's all, let's do this
Stephen: How long will it take for you to get her out of the building?
Tony: I have to fabricate some clearances, it's going to take me about thirty to forty minutes
Stephen: Contact me as soon as you clear CTU

Jane: What's going on? Who are you?
Jack: My name is Jack Bauer, I'm a federal agent: you're not in any danger
Jane: What'd you want?
Jack: We need your help, we need to get in touch with your father
Jane: Then get in touch with him, what'd you need me for?
Jack: We don't know where he is, we think you do
Jane: What's this about?
Jack: You don't know who your father really is
Jane: First of all, I hardly know my father and whatever "this" is, I know it's illegal. You have no right to keep me here, release me now. I haven't done anything wrong
Jack: You better listen to me very carefully, right now your father's engaged in terrorist activities against the United States of America. This morning, he killed hundreds of people and has threatened to kill thousands more. I can only imagine how difficult this must be for you to believe but trust me, you're going to cooperate with us. There's a lot at stake and not a lot of time
Jane: I'm not going to do anything, I want to talk to a lawyer
Jack: There's no lawyer, it's just you and me
Jane: I don't know anything about my father. He comes into town twice a year and I have dinner with him. I don't even know where he lives
Jack: How do you contact him?
Jane: I don't, he calls me
Jack: You're lying to me
Jane: I'm not
Jack: Don't try to protect him and you're going to get yourself in a world of trouble
Jane: You're the one in trouble here. You're the one breaking the law
Jack: You think I'm here playing a game here with you? Hundreds of thousands of lives are on the line. You have no idea how I'm far willing to go to acquire your cooperation
Jane: [Yells] what're you threatening to do to me?
Jack: Where is your father?
Jane: I don't know
Jack: [Yells louder] where is your father?

Jane: What's happening?
Jack: We've run out of time: we need you to call your father
Jane: And tell him what?
Jack: Anything, we just need you to keep him on the line
Jane: For how long?
Jack: At least a minute. Do you think you can do that?
Jane: I need to think about it
Jack: We don't have any more time. Your father just threatened to release more of the virus in the next few minutes

Jack: I'm going to show you who your father really is: these photographs were taken over eight years ago. Your father told your mother he was going to Europe on a fact finding mission, but the truth of the matter is we were both part of a Special Forces unit that was dispatched to Kosovo to kill a man named Victor Drazen. This is where the mission ended: Drazen's hideout, when I left Kosovo I believed your father had died in the blast. The British government told your mother that's where he died too. But recently through phone records your father contacted you four years ago to tell you he was still alive, is that right?
Stephen: Yes, a couple months after my mother died I got a call from him, he said he was living in Europe under an assumed name and that nobody knew he was alive and for his protection, I couldn't tell anyone I spoke to him
Jack: Did he ever tell you why he contacted you after so many years?
Jane: Yes, he missed me
Jack: I understand that. Over the last three to four hours we've been pulling data from Interpol: here are some more recent images. This is your father with Syed Calabi, a known weapons dealer in the Middle East, here he is seen meeting with Ari Consol, a biologist from Jakarta who is now spending the rest of his life in prison for the manufacturing of illegal biological weapons
Jane: This doesn't prove anything, he could've been meeting with these people for any number of reasons
Jack: I'll play you an audio file: one of three we got from your father earlier today, this is your father talking to the President of the United States
Stephen: "Working against those countries at the behest of the American military machine. In forty-five minutes, I want a list of their identities sent to me by the way of a website: Silvia.Imports.com, if you fail to comply, I will release two of the vials in major cities"
Jack: Two more vials of the virus, his already release one. This is a live video feed from the Chandler Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles where your father ordered the release of one of the vials of the virus into the ventilation system of the hotel. The people you're looking at will be dead in the next two to three hours. Almost eight hundred are infected, this how they'll die
Jane: [Horrified by the images] I don't want to see anymore
Jack: I don't want to see anymore either, you can help us stop this. Please
Jane: I have a phone number: he told me to call day or night if I ever got into trouble
Jack: Have you even used it before?
Jane: No
Jack: We need it

Jane: [while in a car] where in Los Angeles are they taking me?
Kim: A place called "CTU"
Jane: CTU?
Kim: Yeah, Counter Terrorist Unit
Jane: I still can't believe this: that my father is a terrorist. Four years ago, when I found out he was alive after all that time, I was so happy. I had a father, I let myself believe all that he wanted me to, that he was this wonderful man
Kim: How often did you see him?
Jane: Couple times a year, sometimes he'd surprise me and he'd always bring me something and it was always perfect like he knew
Kim: Maybe he did know?
Jane: What'd you mean?
Kim: He had people watching you, he knew more about your life than you're probably aware of
Jane: What am I suppose to do with all these feelings for him? The person I love doesn't even exist. What going to happen to him?
Kim: My dad's going to try to bring him in

Jack: You know what just happened?
Jack: [after she's silent] a man your father hired to protect you just tried to kill one of my agents
Jane: So, you killed him right? The man that worked for my father?
Jack: You're a smart girl, look out into that room: everyone here is a federal agent, whose job it is to protect the lives of American citizens. I know how hard it must be for you to believe everything everybody's been telling you about your father but I'm going to show you something that will change your mind. The sooner you stop resisting me, the sooner you can help us start saving lives
Jane: Why are you putting all this on me?
Jack: Because your Stephen Saunders' daughter and unfortunately your our only leverage we have against him
Jane: You can't just say these outrageous things and expect me to believe you
Jack: I know, the truth is I knew your father, I worked with him. He was a good man, he was a brave man but something's happened to him, all I care about right now is stopping him from what his doing. I can't do that without you, I need your help

Jane: You ok?
Tony: It's just traffic
Jane: You've been acting weird since we left
Tony: There's a lot going on right now
Jane: You never really "explained" why you wanted to transfer me to this "Division" place
Tony: I told you...
Jane: [Interrupts him] I know what you told me: it doesn't make sense
Tony: I don't have the time to explain it to you right now
