The Best Sam Singer Quotes

Jack: [while wearing a hazmat suit] Mr. and Mrs. Singer?
Sam: What the hell is going on here? This is not just about drugs
Jack: I think you've been exposed to a virus
Sam: A virus?
Jack: It's called Cordilla Virus, we think your son carried it in from Mexico without knowing it
Sam: What'd you mean "carried it in"? How?
Jack: He thought he was carrying drugs
Sam: So we've been exposed?
Jack: 'I'm afraid so
Sam: What does that mean? Are we sick?
Jack: We're going to have to keep you quarantined until we get the results back from your test
Jack: [Answering his phone inside the helmet in the hazmat suit] yeah this is Bauer
Tony: It's Tony
Jack: I think Kyle Singer's been exposed
Tony: Yeah, we've already got an all points out on him
Jack: Have you set up a perimeter?
Tony: We're doing everything we can to contain this thing: all agencies, all departments are in the loop on a "need to know" basis
Jack: Ok good work
Tony: Listen, I know this isn't the best time to tell you this but I just got some bad news you want to know about
Jack: What's wrong?
Tony: Luis Annicon was murdered
Jack: Murdered? How?
Tony: Salazar's guard. We got him in custody, he claims Salazar has his son kidnapped and threatened to kill him if he didn't do it. I'm sorry, I know you two worked closely on this case

Sam: [to Kyle through an intercom while he remains in containment] the doctor told us everything
Helen: [Referring to the virus his infected with] but maybe they're wrong? Maybe they don't it's as bad as they think
Kyle: They're not wrong. I deserve what I'm getting
Sam: Don't say that: what you deserve was a father who could do better for you. So you wouldn't have to go get money and bring it home because I couldn't
Kyle: No
Sam: I'm sorry. I'm so sorry
Kyle: I love you. You've always taken care of me, I know I've never told you this but you always made me feel safe. Even now, you made me feel safe, you did the best you could

Sam: I'm just saying Kyle is in over his head
Helen: We're not calling our lawyer: he hasn't even been arrested
Sam: Not yet
Helen: Maybe he won't be. If we leave it alone, don't do anything, maybe this whole thing will just go away
Sam: You can't be serious
Helen: Why not? Why do we have to let anyone know?
Sam: Because it's against the law not to
Helen: What'd you suggest we do? Call the police? Maybe they'll give us a reward so we can pay our rent? That wasn't fair. I'm sorry

Jack: [to Kyle's parents] I'm going to need one of you to make the call now. I need you to keep him on the line as long as possible so we can trace it
Sam: What am I suppose to tell him?
Jack: The truth
Sam: [Over the phone, while Jack listens and CTU traces the call] it's your father
Kyle: Dad?
Sam: We need to talk
Kyle: Look, I don't know what you want to talk about. I know how pissed off you are ok?
Sam: Whatever you did: I know you were just trying to help out your mom and me
Kyle: Yeah look, unless you want to give back the stuff you took, I've got to deal with this situation ok?
Sam: Please, don't hang up. Please? Listen to me, what I'm telling you is important, please, you have to come home
Kyle: Why do you sound different?
Sam: I need you to trust me on something I'm about to tell you
Kyle: Dad?
Sam: You may have gotten a virus, something you picked up in Mexico
Kyle: What? How did you know I was in Mexico?
Sam: It doesn't matter and you may be sick and if you are, you need to be checked out by a doctor
Kyle: Look, I don't know what you're talking about but I feel fine
Sam: I know it sounds crazy but it's real, now there are some people they're trying to help
Kyle: [Surprised] cops?
Jack: Tony, you got a lock on this trace? We're going to lose this kid
Tony: [to Kim] how much longer?
Kim: I've got a cell tower but it's got a three mile radius
Kyle: I can't believe this. One minute you tell me you love me, the next minute you sell me out to some cops
Sam: They're not the police. They're just trying to stop this virus before it becomes an outbreak
Kyle: I already told you, I feel fine alright?
Sam: They're saying you're not going to feel sick for a few hours but by then it'll be too late
Jack: Tony, have you got a lock yet?
Tony: [to Kim] how much longer?
Kim: Ten seconds
Kyle: What'd you want me to do? Turn myself in?
Sam: Because you may be sick and if you are, then other people are going to be infected
Tony: We got it Jack. His at Los Feliz Mall between Vermont and Sunset
Jack: Ok, get his photograph to mall security tell them not to approach him
Tony: Look, your twenty minutes by car, I can land a team there in ten minutes
Jack: I don't want you taking Chase
Tony: Why not?
Jack: [Before hanging up] just don't

Helen: He said he won the money at the track
Sam: He can up come up with a better lie than that
Helen: Maybe he was telling the truth
Sam: Oh, come on
Sam: [while Kyle tries to walk past him] where are you going? What's in the bag?
Kyle: Clothes
Sam: Well, open it
Kyle: What?
Sam: Open the bag. I'm warning you: open that bag or I'm going to open it myself
Kyle: [Looks at his mother] ma?
Helen: Listen to your father
Kyle: It's none of his business
Sam: As long as it's in my house, it's my business
Kyle: Your house? This isn't your house, you can't even pay the rent
Helen: [Chastising him for talking back to his father] oh, Kyle
Kyle: [after grabs his father grabs the bag away and begins to look through it] will you quit snooping please?
Sam: [Pushes Kyle back] don't even think about it
Sam: [Holding a bag of white powder after removing it from the bag] what is this? Coke? Heroin?
Kyle: Give it back
Sam: What'd you say?
Kyle: I need it
Sam: What'd you mean you need it? What're you? Some kind of junkie?
Kyle: No. I'm just delivering it for this guy, if I don't get it to him...
Sam: [Interrupts him] who?
Kyle: Just a guy ok?
Sam: [Raises his voice] who? Give me a name
Helen: Kyle, answer your father

Sam: What's going on? They don't have their suits on, what does that mean? Are we ok?
Jack: Yes, the powder was harmless
Helen: Oh, thank God
Sam: So you put us through all this for nothing: you scared the hell out of us
Jack: Mr. Singer, we still need to find your son, is there anything you can tell us that could help?
Sam: Why? You just said the powder was harmless
Jack: We believe your son was infected with the virus earlier this morning before he came home. We have three hours to find him before he becomes contagious
Sam: What're you saying? That our son could die?
Jack: Yes, that could happen
Helen: Oh, God
Jack: I know how this must be difficult for you and I'm sorry but we need to find your son and we need to find him now
Sam: Have you tried his cell phone?
Jack: Yes, the line's been disconnected
Helen: Oh wait, he took my phone this morning
Jack: What's the number?
Helen: 818-555-0103
Jack: [while taking out his cell phone to call CTU] ok, I'm going to need one of you to call him
Sam: This is my fault. Kyle wouldn't have done any of this if I couldn't take care of my own family
Helen: No
Sam: Yes you know it's true
Jack: [Over the phone] it's Jack
Tony: I just spoke to LAPD, they got a priority APB on Singer
Jack: Ok good. I think we got a number on him
Tony: Ok we'll thread the line through a tracing matrix
Jack: Ok the number is 818-555-0103. I want you to reroute the call back to my cell phone
Tony: [to Kim] I need you to trace that number and reroute the call back to Jack's cell phone

Sam: I don't understand: if his not sick yet, why isn't there a way to treat him?
Dr. Nicole Duncan: Once their exposed, it starts incubating the virus. There's nothing we can do
Sam: How long does he have?
Dr. Nicole Duncan: The lab tests haven't come back yet, once they do...
Sam: [Interrupts her] please just give us an idea?
Dr. Nicole Duncan: Hours, not days. I'm sorry
Sam: Can we see him?
Dr. Nicole Duncan: Of course

Kyle: Hey, how was the interview?
Sam: Fine
Kyle: What's up dad?
Sam: Your mother told me you paid the rent: the three months we owed?
Kyle: Yeah I came into a little money
Sam: How does a nineteen year old who doesn't have a job come into a "little money"?
Kyle: Tim and I went down to the track the other day. He knows this guy over at the stables so I got a tip
Sam: [Sternly] where did you get the money?
Kyle: Dad, what does it matter? Honestly, the rent's paid for three months alright? So the pressure's off us now
Sam: Did you do something illegal?
Kyle: No. I told you we went to Santa Anita and we got lucky
Sam: Don't lie to me, I got enough to worry about. Now this is my house, I pay the rent, I take care of you and your mother
Kyle: [while walking away] when you get that job, you can go ahead and pay me back alright?
Sam: Wait a second, we're not done here
Kyle: No, we're done here
Sam: [Yelling] don't walk away from me
Kyle: You should be thanking me instead of crawling up my ass
