Tawny Cypress: Cherie Rollins-Murray

Quotes 

• Cherie Rollins-Murray : I'm running the description Carrie passed on. Any luck narrowing down suspects on your end?

  Jay Lee : The voice signed off with "Hail Eris", customary Discordian salute to Eris, the Greek goddess of chaos, used by anarchists and computer hackers.

  Cherie Rollins-Murray : Anarchists and hackers, great. It could be any one of the online groups, uh, or a disgruntled military or NSA type.

  Jay Lee : And don't forget Hans Gruber.

  Cherie Rollins-Murray : I don't know Gruber.

  Jay Lee : Really? Hans Gruber?

  Cherie Rollins-Murray : What?

  Jay Lee : No, really, you never saw "Die Hard"?

  Cherie Rollins-Murray : What?

• Cherie Rollins-Murray : This is Tanya Sitkowsky. Joint Task Force for Cyber Crimes. Spent some time on the dark side of the hacker world.

  Jay Lee : [giving her a once-over]  The dark side, uh... I'm not sure I see it.

  Tanya Sitkowsky : I dabbled, but it didn't take.

  Jay Lee : Okay, in your dabbling, you ever, uh, come across this guy?

  Tanya Sitkowsky : Sure, yeah, that's... that's Alpha Omega.

  Jay Lee : Positive? 'Cause I got him as Jonathan Brody, former financial analyst. Did nine months on an embezzlement charge four years ago.

  Tanya Sitkowsky : You're not wrong. Do you mind?

  Jay Lee : [standing up and offering her his chair]  Uh, no.

  Tanya Sitkowsky : He was a suit, but only ever really on the outside. He studied robotics and game theory at MIT before Wall Street snatched him up. After he got out of jail, he went back to his roots, but with a decidedly anarchic bent. Fancies himself some sort of visionary super-hacker.

  Cherie Rollins-Murray : So what's Omega's vision?

  Tanya Sitkowsky : [typing]  All right, here we go. This guy has declared war on "the hideous hydra-headed dragon of money that holds the world in its jaws."

  Jay Lee : Hideous hydra-headed. Nice. What's a dorky mission statement without some good alliteration, right?

  Tanya Sitkowsky : I agree. It's like General Zod, who swore to be freed forever...

  Jay Lee : From the Phantom Zone. Wow. Uh, you read DC?

  Tanya Sitkowsky : Is there anything else?

  Cherie Rollins-Murray : Is this gonna be some separated at birth thing, or...?

• Tanya Sitkowsky : So, we know Omega tried planting a logic bomb in the World Bank's collection archives last year, and their security systems barely held.

  Jay Lee : What was he trying to accomplish?

  Tanya Sitkowsky : Chaos? That's generally his objective.

  Jay Lee : Hail Eris.

  Tanya Sitkowsky : Exactly.

  Cherie Rollins-Murray : And hacking banks is one thing, but taking hostages and threatening to kill innocent people for ransom? Doesn't fit the profile.

  Jay Lee : He try to do something like this before?

  Tanya Sitkowsky : Not on this scale, but he's definitely been ramping up to it. Intelligence suggests he was involved in the crash of a State Department C-130 taking medical supplies into Islamabad four months ago.

  Jay Lee : Yeah, I remember that. The pilot reported having massive computer systems failure right before.

  Cherie Rollins-Murray : Medical supplies? I don't get it.

  Tanya Sitkowsky : Alpha Omega sees all foreign aid as America's attempt to extort cooperation from other countries. He was making a point.

• Al Burns : We're gonna have to breach the building if Skinner doesn't come up with the money.

  Cherie Rollins-Murray : With all those cameras, Omega will know we're coming.

  Al Burns : We had to override them.

  Jay Lee : We tried cutting the power to the building; Omega was ready.

  Al Burns : Okay, but let's say we kill the downtown power grid.

  Cherie Rollins-Murray : Like downtown Manhattan?

  Al Burns : Wouldn't have any power to draw from.

  Cherie Rollins-Murray : Well, I mean, you're gonna tick off a lot of people, but yeah, that would probably work.
