  Jack Bauer : Did anyone from your crew survive the attack?

  Tim Rooney : No, I don't think so

  Jack Bauer : Where are you?

  Tim Rooney : Lower level: auxiliary engineering. I was down here doing an inventory when the alarm went off, atmospheric gages redlined, it's a sealed compartment, so I shut it down

  Jack Bauer : The men that attacked the sub, were they wearing gas masks?

  Tim Rooney : They were but they took them off a few minutes ago

  Tim Rooney : No, the armory is on the other side of the sub
