- Eric Weiss: [to Vaughn] Well this is why people from the CIA should not get married to people from the NSC. Don't poop where you sleep.
- Arvin Sloane: I miss LA. I miss Emily. I miss the friendship with your father.
- [sighs]
- Arvin Sloane: I miss your confidence and trust. Perhaps, I can get it back someday?
- Sydney Bristow: You will never have my confidence and trust... or my father's friendship and respect... ever.
- Michael Vaughn: It's been three weeks since I learned that Sydney murdered Lazarey... I've been lying to my wife for three weeks.
- Eric Weiss: Vaughn, I know guys who've lied to their wives for a lot longer than that...
- Michael Vaughn: You understand that the reason your brother didn't like talking to you is because you say stupid things, right?
- Marshall Flinkman: This guy Lang created this really cool device. Basically, take it to any missile silo in all of Russia and it interfaces with the launch control console, bypasses all security protocols: initiation codes, the commander's launch key... irrelevant.
- Sydney Bristow: It's a skeleton key for Russia's nuclear weapons?
- Marshall Flinkman: Yeah and to be honest, I'm just a little bit jealous.
- Julian Sark: Were you behind them extracting me from the CIA?
- Allison Doren: I wish I could claim credit for that. I only learned you were working for us recently.
- Julian Sark: My tenure began shortly after my father's murder. They freed me in exchange for my inheritance.
- Allison Doren: Who killed your father?
- Julian Sark: I don't know - but I intend to find out.
- NSC Director Robert Lindsey: The Covenant doesn't want anyone to know they're behind the assassination.
- Lauren Reed: And your source believes their reach extends so far within the Russian government that they can make that happen.
- NSC Director Robert Lindsey: You leave tonight. Any leak, and our source could be compromised and killed. That means no one at the CIA can know about this, including your husband.
- Tupikov: How does a British woman become an American spy?
- Lauren Reed: I'm not a spy. And though I grew up in London, I was born in the United States. Now that you know my life story, I have some questions myself. Your government's running a probe into this. I would think you'd want to bring closure to your own investigation. Why come to us?
- Michael Vaughn: Is it Allison?
- Sydney Bristow: Since I learned that she's alive... I keep wondering. Does she still look like her? Does she look like Francie? Because if she does? As much as I know I should keep her alive to maybe try to figure out the last two years of my life? All I'll wanna do is kill her.
- Sydney Bristow: Why didn't she kill me?
- Eric Weiss: Maybe she likes you.
- Sydney Bristow: Weiss, I'm serious.
- Eric Weiss: So am I! Come on. She lived with you for months. She doubled herself as your best friend; maybe in that time, she started to like you. I could see that happening.
- Arvin Sloane: Sydney, I was very pleased when Dixon said you'd agreed to be my handler.
- Sydney Bristow: It was an assignment, not an agreement - the way a janitor doesn't agree to clean a toilet. But as your handler, you'll do as I say, when I say it. I select your assignments; I design your missions. I control you, not the other way around.
- Arvin Sloane: Is that what you used to let Vaughn do? Control you?
- Sydney Bristow: You will set up a meeting with Sark and Allison. You'll explain to them that their travel plans have been compromised. You'll then offer them assistance in revising their arrangements.
- Arvin Sloane: And pass the information along to you.
- Sydney Bristow: That won't be necessary. You'll be wearing a wire.
- Arvin Sloane: And if they discover that it's a setup?
- Sydney Bristow: Then I get to hear them kill you.
- Marshall Flinkman: You've got the looks. I've got the brains.
- Michael Vaughn: I've got the looks? You've got the brains?
