You can't tell me.

Can I come in?

Yeah, of course you can come in.

- I just...
- What?

Ali... this isn't working. I need...

- Don't break up with me.
- I never see you.

You disappear. You reappear.

I can't ask you anything.

- I know.
- I don't know who you are.

- No, you know who I am.

I don't want to live like this.

- This is not what I want for my life.
- You want someone

- No, no, I want...

I'm predictable.

- I'll always come home to you.

The second the plane lands...

I'll come home to you.

[SIGHS]

I hate not knowing where you are.

I hate that you might be in danger.

Of course you hate it.
It's good that you hate it.

Why is it good?

Because it means we're in love.

"When love beckons to you, follow him,

Oh, really?

You're gonna quote poetry?

Hi, honey. I'm home.

Because maybe after a week,
I realized I never had to

wake up in the middle

and go to the bottom of the stairs.

Why would you go
to the bottom of the stairs?

That's the safest place

in a house when bombs are falling.

SANCHEZ: I got a tip yesterday.

- Pretty hot tip.
- Yeah?

"The New York Times" is gonna
publish a story on you.

I think I'd have heard about that.

[INHALES DEEPLY]

Basic thrust is that
the security of the country

may be compromised

because the head
of counterterrorism in New York

was the subject
of intense internal scrutiny

following the loss of a briefcase

containing classified documents.

Where'd they get that from?

I have no idea.

So kill it.

I can kill it. I...

You... you don't think
I know the editor?

You think I haven't bought him dinner?

You need to resign.

No. No. I'm... I... look...

John. John, John, John.

I don't want to fire you.

[STAMMERS] Good.

So you need to resign.

I've been here 25 years.

You need to resign today.

I normally don't attend

the weekly counterterrorism
meeting as a rule,

but I wanted to be here today
to underscore

that from the CIA's perspective,

there is nothing more urgent
than containing al-Qaeda.

Thank you, George.

CONDOLEEZZA: I told your
colleague the other day,

I don't deal in generalities.

I need specifics.

And specifics you shall have,
good lady.

The NSA's been hearing a lot of chatter

from various terrorist cells.

Correct, Michael? Roger that.

We're concerned
about a potential attack

on Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Israel...

The word "potential"
is inherently unspecific.

And Genoa, Italy,
for this year's G8 summit.

Hey, George?

Listen, I gotta tell you something.

I gotta tell all of you guys something.

I'm gone.

I'm out.

I heard.

So this is my last meeting.

It's my last one of these.

So I-I just want to say straight up

to the Agency guys, okay?

Maybe your people
won't talk to my people

because somebody's got
a hard-on for me.

But I'm out of here.
It's not about me anymore.

My people... my guys... are trying

to keep Americans safe.

Forget the fucking Genoese
for a second...

Maybe let Mr. Tenet finish, Mr....

CLARKE: Mr. O'Neill
makes an excellent point.

There are terrorists here.

I explained to you
about the terrorist cells

and the transnational nature of...

Who is here?

Is there someone in the United States

that is a clear and present danger

that I need to be
worrying about right now,

or are you talking
about swatting flies?

Because the president has told me

he has no interest in swatting flies.

John's right.
We have had repeated trouble

with the sharing of information
between Alec Station and I-49.

Are you, George, aware

of any information
that hasn't been shared?

The president is correct.

We need to have
a comprehensive strategy,

which is why I'm meeting
with him on Tuesday

when he gets back from Texas.

Okay.

Let's move on.

This is the ladies' room.

Or did you think you could have me too?

Don't you think the world
would be a better place

if two people could have
an honest conversation

about what's really going on?

I think the world
would be a better place

if old men didn't
hang around the ladies' room.
