Pete Garrison
- David Breckinridge: I know about the affair.
- Pete Garrison: It wasn't with Cindy!
- David Breckinridge: Oh, I know. The First Lady.
- David Breckinridge: Holster your weapons! Holster your weapons! I am Agent Breckinridge, Lead Investigator. I issued the warrant on Pete Garrison.
- Counter Sniper: [sniper sights on Garrison] ...subject in my sight. Do I take the shot?
- President Ballentine: [continuing his speech] We must ratify the Kyoto Protocol. We must embrace the ideal of an African economic union!
- Post Agent #2: He's a Do Not Admit.
- Post Agent #1: We have orders!
- David Breckinridge: I am countermanding your orders!
- Post Agent #1: You don't control this sight. Montrose does.
- Post Agent #2: [into sleeve microphone] Montrose--
- David Breckinridge: Don't call him!
- Pete Garrison: Montrose is the mole!
- Post Agent #1: Montrose?
- Post Agent #2: What's the procedure for *that*?
- 1st Lady Sarah Ballentine: How do you think it went in there?
- Pete Garrison: Excuse me, ma'am, are you talking to me?
- 1st Lady Sarah Ballentine: Yes.
- Pete Garrison: I thought it was, uh, an excellent speech.
- 1st Lady Sarah Ballentine: One to 10?
- Pete Garrison: Ten, ma'am.
- 1st Lady Sarah Ballentine: You're not a very good liar, Pete.
- Pete Garrison: Seriously?
- 1st Lady Sarah Ballentine: Yes, I- I really want to know.
- Pete Garrison: 9.5.
- David Breckinridge: [while Pete is dusting a cup for prints] You know its my experience that a guilty man doesnt break into a police station to run prints.
- Pete Garrison: I only had my phone on for 5 minutes!
- David Breckinridge: [shrugs] I was in the neighborhood.
- David Breckinridge: Tom DiPaola said he called you four times yesterday. You never returned any of his messages, and that you almost missed the Marine One flight yesterday.
- Pete Garrison: They moved the flight up two hours. I was in the coffee shop. It was noisy. I couldn't hear my cell phone. Now wh-wh-what is this, alright? What the hell are you doing following me?
- Hugo Ortega: Las Palmas Coffee Shop is a dead drop for the Baranquilla Cartel.
- David Breckinridge: You screwed up, Pete. You walked into a stakeout. I want to know your number one go-to guy at the Cartel, and I want to know how you were going to help them kill the president.
- Pete Garrison: Why would I want to kill the president? What motive do I have?
- David Breckinridge: I don't know Pete, and to be honest with you, I don't care. I know what the evidence is telling me.
- Pete Garrison: I have given my entire life to the Secret Service. I've gotten up at 4 a.m. every goddamn morning.
- David Breckinridge: So is that what this is about? You're bitter after all your years of service that they didn't make you director?
- Pete Garrison: Oh, no. Don't confuse your own ambition with mine. Okay, Dave?
- David Breckinridge: Come on, Pete. Think about it. People would understand that. I mean, Jesus Christ, you took a bullet for the President of the United States. And in the 25 years since, you haven't even made shift supervisor on a presidential detail, and *that* I know you wanted. But they don't put guys who bend the rules, not even a little bit, in charge of P.P.D., do they? Even if they did take a bullet for the old man.
- Pete Garrison: Is that your professional or personal opinion?
