Glenn Morshower: Aaron Pierce

Quotes 

• Aaron Pierce : [President Logan has Aaron held hostage]  There is nothing that you have said or done that is acceptable to me in the least. You're a traitor to your country and a disgrace to your office. And it's my duty to see that you're brought to justice.

  Aaron Pierce : [Logan stares silently]  Is there anything else... Charles?

• President Charles Logan : [Referring to having Aaron beaten and tied to a chair]  I'm sorry about this. Listen to me, you think you know what's going on, I'm here to tell you

  Aaron Pierce : Then why don't you explain it to me?

  President Charles Logan : I understand Jack Bauer led you to believe there was a recording: something that "tied" to David Palmer's murder. That recording does not exist

  Aaron Pierce : That's not what I've been told

  President Charles Logan : You're not hearing what I'm saying. The recording... does... not... exist. It's over, you have a choice here, you are a good man, and you are a fine agent. I see no reason to throw away your career but I need to know we can put this behind us. If you will give me your word that you will let this drop, I will make sure you are reassigned to whatever post you want, except for the White House of course so what's it going to be? Are my terms acceptable?

• Martha Logan : Charles lied to me: he said you had been transferred to Washington. That Agent Adams, my husband ordered him to kill you didn't he?

  Aaron Pierce : Yes ma'am, I'm sorry to tell you the President was involved in much more things than that

  Martha Logan : I know I was going to let him get away with it: all of it. I was going to keep quiet. We have to do something

  Aaron Pierce : I'll hide the body, I'll get him into the trunk but I can't drive it out of here. The President has to believe I'm dead. I need to lay low: keep out of sight

  Martha Logan : I can do it

  Aaron Pierce : No

  Martha Logan : Yes I can drive it

  Aaron Pierce : No, you need to get back inside the residence. Your husband can't suspect anything has gone wrong, you need to find Mike Novick

  Martha Logan : Mike?

  Aaron Pierce : Tell him everything, tell him to meet me here

  Martha Logan : Ok, promise me if something goes wrong, if you're in danger of being caught, you will find a way off these grounds, and you will leave. Promise me

  Aaron Pierce : You have my word
