Sir, I know you. I know you had nothing to do with the Baltimore bomb, and you sure as hell know you didn't! But you're still about to launch a nuclear strike against us! This no longer has anything to do with Baltimore! Now it's about fear! Our fear of your missiles, your fear of our subs, fear of being weak, fear of making a mistake... the same fear of the other guy that had us build these goddamn bombs in the first place!

Jack Oh... I had a date tonight so I have to call and cancel.
Well don't be stupid! Tell her where you're going. In fact tell her who you work for. She'll be impressed.
Jack [to Cathy, his girlfriend, over the phone]
OK. I work for the CIA, and the Director asked me at the last minute to come with him to Russia with him to do a nuclear arms inspection. Hello?
Cathy
That is so lame.
Jack No, I swear, it's because of the START treaty, we get to inspect to make sure they're really decommissioning their nuclear arsenal [Cathy hangs up] Hello?...Hello? [sees Cabot laughing at him] Thanks a lot.
