Jack

You don't want to hurt anyone Barry, because if you do, that's when things are going to get difficult.

Oh, yeah, well, things are really peachy right now.

[Jack approaches the bookstore where the hostages are being held.]

Jack

Barry!

[Barry drags a hostage to the window and looks out. He and Jack call to one another]

Jack

Come to the door. I want to talk to you! Come on Barry, open the door. Open the door, I want to talk!

Who the hell are you?

Jack

I'm the guy you've been talking to [shows badge] Jack Malone, FBI.

Well, what do you want?

Jack

I want to come in.

No way!

Jack

Yeah, yeah, come on, let me in. Look, I got nothing, alright, Nothing! [He takes off his jacket] Nothing! No gun, I'm not wired...[shows] Nothing, see? [yells] Nothing!

What do you want?

Jack

I want Samantha!

And why should I give her to you?

Jack

[Shouts] Because she's bleeding to death... and I know you're not a murderer!

Well... what do I get in return?

Jack

Me. You get me.

[Jack Malone and Samantha Spade awkwardly discuss his departure, and their old relationship. They speak quietly.]

In another world, maybe....

Jack

Maybe...

[There is a long pause.]

My guess is that Teddy thinks it's an alien implant.

An implant?

Yeah, it's a common fear among abductees that aliens implant them with a device of some kind in order to track their whereabouts.

What, so they can re-abduct them?

Or read their minds. Control them remotely. There's a bunch of different theories. Look if Teddy fears that he has an implant, the run-in with the so-called men in black could only make things worse.

Jack

You seem to have quite extensive knowledge on the subject.

I might have done some reading.

Jack

It's no different than the chances of you getting hit by a bus when you walk out of this building.

MSMaria's Lawyer

So you're not concerned.

Jack

That you could get hit by a bus, not really.

[Jack describes to a woman how he thinks she orchestrated her husband's kidnapping.]

LCLucy Costa

That's quite the imagination you have.

Jack

Lady, even I couldn't make this stuff up.

[Jack talks to a homeless woman who may have witnessed their missing person.]

Jack

Did you see anything?

[She stares blankly]

Jack

Here's twenty bucks; did you see anything?

Wwoman

Yeeah...

[The team has found their missing person, a friend of Jack's, gravely injured in a warehouse filled with chemical weaponry, the use of which he was trying to prevent.]

We've secured the building and took out Simmons, but we also found the the chemical they were going to spray at the convention- there's a lot of it. We need to clear out.

Jack

[quietly] I'm not leaving.

Jack, we need to go. Once this place is safe we can get help for Max.

Jack

[Jack has been crying.] I'm not. Going. Anywhere.

Jack

Why do you always do this?

ACAnne Cassidy

Do what?

Jack

Make a simple question complicated.

AAnne

I'm a lawyer- I guess it comes with the training.
