Sen. Blaine Mayer: .. Who is Mr. Ibraham Hada? .... .... .... Sen. Blaine Mayer: Alright, then. Did you torture Mr. Hadad? Jack Bauer: According to the definition set forth by the Geneva Convention…yes, I did. Senator, why dont I save you some time? Its obvious that your agenda is to discredit C.T.U. and to generate a series of indictments— Sen. Blaine Mayer: My only agenda is to get to the truth. Jack Bauer: I dont think it is, sir. Sen. Blaine Mayer: Excuse me? Jack Bauer: Ibraham Hadad had targeted a bus carrying over forty-five people, ten of which were children. The truth, Senator, is that I stopped that attack from happening. Sen. Blaine Mayer: By torturing Mr. Hadad! Jack Bauer: By doing what I deemed necessary to protect innocent lives. Sen. Blaine Mayer: So basically, what you’re saying, Mr. Bauer, is that the ends justify the means, and that you are above the law. Jack Bauer: When I am activated, when I am brought into a situation, there is a reason, and that reason is to complete the objectives of my mission at all costs. Sen. Blaine Mayer: Even if it means breaking the law. Jack Bauer: For a combat soldier, the difference between success and failure is your ability to adapt to your enemy. The people that I deal with, they don’t care about your rules. All they care about is results. My job is to stop them from accomplishing their objectives. I simply adapted. In answer to your question, am I above the law? No, sir. I am more than willing to be judged by the people you claim to represent. I will let them decide what price I should pay. But please, do not sit there with that smug look on your face and expect me to regret the decisions I have made. Because sir, the truth is … I don’t. Place this extract in its immediate context.
