Lonni Jung: "You realize what you've set in motion? People will suffer."
Luthen Rael: "That's the plan."

Reminds me of the West Wing:
C.J. Cregg: Leo, we need to be investigated by someone who wants to kill us just to watch us die.

House of Representatives?
Leo McGarry: Well, they'll get around to it sooner or later.
C.J. Cregg: So let's make it sooner - let's make it now.
