1:28:02
but you're worried about
this fucking wine?

1:28:04
Here's the deal.
1:28:08
I don't give the Senate
Oversight Committee the carbon.

1:28:11
They don't waste three years with their
investigation, wailing and moaning...

1:28:14
"How could this happen
in America?"...

1:28:17
while you have one of
your spooks whack Simon Lynch.

1:28:19
Or?
1:28:22
Or you do the only thing that'll
guarantee Simon Lynch his safety.

1:28:25
You or one of your superiors or
the president of the United States...

1:28:29
I don't give a fuck who...
1:28:31
but someone is gonna go on
national television and tell America...

1:28:34
that your billion dollar,
uncrackable code...

1:28:37
has been cracked by
a nine-year-old autistic boy.

1:28:39
Then you get
your carbon back.

1:28:46
You know what I think,
Mr. Jeffries?

1:28:50
I think you've seen too many of those
four-wheel drive commercials on TV.

1:28:56
The ones where you get to drive fast
and be a renegade.

1:28:59
Let's talk about
the real world...

1:29:02
where you're not some wonderful lone
wolf hero, but you're part of a team.

1:29:06
And you play your position
because that's what America is.

1:29:10
It's one big team.
1:29:13
This might be difficult
for you to grasp, but I am a patriot.

1:29:18
And a patriot is one who makes
the right moral choice.

1:29:22
Sometimes it takes a strong man
to make that choice.

1:29:26
One boy who cannot survive on his own,
one of nature's mistakes...

1:29:31
weighed against the lives
of thousands of our people.

1:29:34
Think about it.
You worked undercover.

1:29:37
How many of our agents will
be put in harm's way
if this code is compromised?

1:29:40
Members of your team.
1:29:42
Men like Rasheed Halabi...
1:29:45
an Iraqi-American
and a great patriot.

1:29:48
A man, who as we speak, is undercover
in Saddam's Republican Guard.

1:29:52
A man who has not seen
his family...

1:29:57
That's for Simon's parents,
you piece of shit.
