Quotes 

• Judge Moore : I'm appointing Ryan the acting deputy director, intelligence. It'll be a provisional appointment, of course, 'til James recovers. I want you to get him up to speed on our aid program to the Colombians. He's gotta brief the oversight committee and talk 'em out of another $75 million.

  Jack Ryan : And not make a complete fool out of himself.

• Jack Ryan : 19 cartridges were recovered, as well as the, um... as the two weapons that fired them. Blood samples taken consistent with the crew. Hardin and, uh, his wife and his son and daughter. They were killed in their staterooms, apparently as they slept, dragged topside, and thrown overboard. The two men in custody surrendered after a brief attempt to outrun the Coast Guard.

  The President : What do we know about them, the men in custody?

  Jack Ryan : Uh, half a dozen arrests, uh, for drug trafficking in Bogota, Mr. President.

  The President : Drugs.

  Jack Ryan : Suspected ties to the Cali cartel, not Medellin...

  Judge Moore : [Greer gasps]  You all right, James?

  Jack Ryan : A-According to DEA.

  The President : Why?

  Robert Ritter : Nothing exotic, sir. Straight piracy and murder. It's not the first time.

  The President : [looking glaringly at Ritter]  It's the first time it was a friend of mine.

  Robert Ritter : Yes, sir.
