Zach Smadu: Isaac Essaway

Quotes 

• Emily Rhodes : Mr. Essaway, my name is Emily Rhodes. I'm special advisor to the president. I just wanted to let you know I'm on my way to Dearborn to monitor your protest today.

  Isaac Essaway : Ms. Rhodes, I can't tell you how much we appreciate that. Governor Royce can't get away with criminalizing innocent people.

  Emily Rhodes : And the president has no intention of letting him. I'll see you soon.

• Isaac Essaway : Ms. Rhodes, the police revoked our permit to protest. They're threatening to make arrests. I have a hundred people ready to march on City Hall, but they're afraid of what will happen if they do.

  Emily Rhodes : I need you to forget about City Hall. The local police aren't worth the fight.

  Isaac Essaway : Ms. Rhodes, no. No, we can't back down now.

  Emily Rhodes : I'm not asking you to. I'm asking you to take the fight directly to Royce. How quickly can you get to the airport?
