President: I have to thank you for exceeding my expectations.
Jonas : How's that, sir?
President: The Senator's kidnapping. You gave me a pretext. To either support the coup or if I sit out, it's already made the government there a whole lot more obedient.

President: Well, well done. edit »

General Raja: Security first, then elections. edit »
