• [Collin, disguised as a doctor, tries to kill Kate with an injection; Luther, also disguised as a doctor, comes up behind him and jabs a syringe into his neck] 

  Luther Whitney : Dr. Kevorkian, I presume? My guess is this is right in your carotid artery about now. You're gonna get a little woozy. But if I give you the rest of this, it's gonna fry your brain down to the size of a peanut! Drop that.

  [Collin drops the syringe, and Luther eases him down to the floor] 

  Tim Collin : [whispering]  Luther, he's my president, right or wrong.

  Luther Whitney : Well, he made a mistake. *You* made a mistake. When you went after my little girl, that was *entirely* unacceptable.

  Tim Collin : [pleading weakly]  Mercy.

  Luther Whitney : I'm fresh out.

  [Luther plunges the injection into Collin's neck; Collin groans as he dies] 

  Kate Whitney : [starts waking up in hospital bed]  Daddy?

  Luther Whitney : [softly]  Go to sleep, darling.

• Gloria Russell : What do I do?

  Bill Burton : Nothing. Because he's making a terrible mistake. He thinks he has time. He doesn't. Seth Frank's too good. He'll bring him in.

  Gloria Russell : Then what?

  Tim Collin : Then I kill him.
