The point is that life is tough for everyone and I am kind of fed up of all the excuses provided to people who commit atrocities. Also, not much happens in this episode, apart from establishing that Suleiman might have a point. The Jack/Doc romance feels forced, too.

- Quotes
James Greer: [to Ryan after church gas attack] A friend of mine in the Bureau told me a story. After 9/11, a guy who worked for American Airlines called the FBI tip line to turn himself in. He was working at Dulles the morning of the attacks, checking tickets at the gate business as usual. And these two Middle Eastern fellas come through the line. They presented their boarding passes, he checked them in and waved them on through. As they're walking away, he happened to look down at their shoes, and he notices they're cheap. Scuffed up. They don't match the first-class tickets or pressed collared shirts and new khaki pants. One hour later, those men flew that Boeing 757 into the side of the Pentagon.
James Greer: He blamed himself for putting those hijackers onto the plane, but what should he have done? Called airport security because they had dirty shoes? Of course not. That would have been irrational. And you blaming yourself for this that's irrational, too.
[walking away]
James Greer: Not to mention narcissistic.
