Morris Chestnut: Will Keaton

Quotes 

• Will Keaton : Did you follow up with the DOJ on that Anderson case? Counter Terrorism's asking.

  Daniel Zain : Yeah, I spoke to them this morning. They're, uh, ready to press ahead with espionage charges.

  Will Keaton : But not homicide?

  Daniel Zain : No, no. They don't think we have it yet. They wanna wait for forensics.

  Will Keaton : Talk to the lab. Find out what the holdup is.

• Daniel Zain : You sleep here last night?

  Will Keaton : Not last night, no.

  Daniel Zain : You know, Will, you have to...

  Will Keaton : What, Daniel? What? What do I have to do? Hmm? Eat, sleep, take better care of myself? I mean, please, tell me what I have to do. God knows everybody else has been.

  Daniel Zain : 'Cause they care about you.

  Will Keaton : Well, all I care about is catching the person that killed Laine.

• Daniel Zain : Where you headed?

  Will Keaton : Langley. Deputy Director of the CIA is briefing me on their end of the attacks.

  Daniel Zain : Good. I'm coming with you.

• Anthony Cabrera : Agent Keaton. I'm Anthony Cabrera.

  Will Keaton : This is Agent Zain.

  Daniel Zain : [shaking hands]  Pleasure.

  Anthony Cabrera : I worked with Laine. I'm sorry. We're in here.

• Anthony Cabrera : Thank you so much for coming, Agent Keaton. I know our two agencies haven't always worked well together in the past, but four of our people are dead. And we're willing to do anything in our power to find those responsible.

  Will Keaton : Tell us what you know.

• Anthony Cabrera : The separate attacks were definitely coordinated. All three happened within thirty minutes of one another.

  Daniel Zain : Any indication that Tal's operatives were in communication with each other?

  Anthony Cabrera : Not at this moment, no, but we're still waiting on signals intelligence from the NSA.

  Will Keaton : How did Tal find them?

  Anthony Cabrera : Truth is, we don't know. But we have a theory.

• Anthony Cabrera : It's not uncommon for foreign intelligence agencies to monitor our operatives when they're abroad.

  Daniel Zain : Our bureau does the same thing here in the States.

  Anthony Cabrera : Exactly. We think that Tal may have exploited these agencies in an effort to locate our people. We think that's how he found them and was able to take them out so quickly.

  Will Keaton : Okay, so you've told us where and you've told us how, but you still haven't told us why these four operatives were targeted by Mikhail Tal.

  Erica Shepherd : Retaliation. These four operatives were part of a team that in 2015 stopped the bombing of twenty passenger planes that were U.S.-bound. They saved thousands of people.

  Will Keaton : And he killed them because of that?

  Erica Shepherd : Yes.

  Will Keaton : Who knew about this team?

  Anthony Cabrera : Uh, a handful of analysts, system technicians, and, uh, senior operations managers.

  Will Keaton : We're gonna need a complete list of all those names by the end of the day.

  Erica Shepherd : Cabrera can help you with that.

  [everyone stands to leave] 

  Erica Shepherd : Agent Keaton. I am sorry for your loss.

• Will Keaton : Only a handful of people at the CIA knew the identities of the four operatives killed at the recent attacks. Tal had to have gotten their names from one of them. These are the twelve people. These are our suspects. Let's go to work.

  [montage of suspects being eliminated] 

  Kate Ryan : Keaton?

  Will Keaton : What, you got something?

  Kate Ryan : Robert Lennon checks out. From the beginning, he's been claiming that he had no knowledge of Brian Lanich's whereabouts the day of the attack. I just got confirmation that he was telling the truth. He couldn't have done it.

  Will Keaton : That's her. Erica Shepherd. She's the one that's working with Tal.

• Daniel Zain : [after IDing Erica as the leak]  Look, we don't have it yet. We don't have enough evidence. You confront her now, you risk her conviction. We'll get it, Will. We have to do this by the book.

  Will Keaton : I will.

  Daniel Zain : Where are you going?

  Will Keaton : Just wanna talk to her.

• Thomas Heffron : You know how this is gonna work?

  Will Keaton : Yeah, well, the, uh, Director's gonna get up and he's gonna say a few words. And then he's gonna put Laine's name in the Book of Honor. Her star is already on the wall.

  Thomas Heffron : I gave the CIA my daughter. They give me a star.

• Will Keaton : So I was wondering, um, how's the progress on the Tal investigation? Any closer to catching him?

  Erica Shepherd : I'm sorry, I can't say. Are you still heading up the investigation for the FBI?

  Will Keaton : I am.

  [seeing her look of question] 

  Will Keaton : Sorry, can't say. Though there has been some... talk. Nothing official, just gossip among family members.

  Erica Shepherd : What kind of gossip?

  Will Keaton : A little bit of everything. Some people think that he was working with the Russians. Others think that he was working with an American. In fact, some think from the CIA.

  Erica Shepherd : Hmm. And what do you think?

  Will Keaton : I think that whoever it is should be worried. 'Cause sooner or later, I'm gonna find 'em.

  Erica Shepherd : I'm confident that you will.

• Kate Ryan : You were right.

  Will Keaton : About what?

  Kate Ryan : Erica Shepherd. You were right.

  Will Keaton : We got the subpoenas?

  Kate Ryan : Yeah, the phone company turned over the records of her family's phones this morning.

  Will Keaton : [looking over the records]  She was using her husband's cell.

  Kate Ryan : No, her daughter's. There's one incoming call from a known Tal associate on the morning of the attacks. Will, it is less than an hour before the first death.

  Will Keaton : We got her. Where is she now?
