Cisco Ramon : I'm gonna ask. Where's my suit?
Barry Allen : It's... gone.
Cisco Ramon : What do you mean, it's gone? What did you do with my suit?
Barry Allen : It blew up, dude. I managed to get out of it before it went "kaboom."
Cisco Ramon : My suit went "kaboom"?
Barry Allen : Fun fact about Bette Sans Souci. She's not carrying bombs. She touched the emblem on the suit and turned it into a bomb. She's a meta-human.
Dr. Harrison Wells : With the ability to cause spontaneous combustion upon tactile contact.
Cisco Ramon : She blew up my suit.
Caitlin Snow : You have, like, three more.
Cisco Ramon : Okay, I have two. And I loved that one.

Dr. Harrison Wells : You soldiers, you call yourselves "Sheepdogs", am I right?
Bette Sans Souci : Happy and normal until someone attacks our flock.
Dr. Harrison Wells : Every good person who was changed that night, people like you, people like Barry Allen, those people are your flock now, Bette. And General Eiling will never stop attacking that flock, and he always gets his target. Unless you stop him.

Dr. Harrison Wells : As the detonation ripped throughout Central City, a number of people were exposed to a wave of unquantifiable energy. One of those people... was you. You were in Central City ten months ago.
Bette Sans Souci : Uh... I had just returned from Afghanistan. I was there diffusing roadside bombs and... shrapnel ripped through me. I was flown back stateside, spent months at the base recuperating, and next thing I know, I became the thing that almost killed me. And Eiling's favorite new lab rat.
Caitlin Snow : The dark matter must have combined with the bomb particulate inside your body.
Bette Sans Souci : I thought Eiling did this to me.
Dr. Harrison Wells : Eiling is not smart enough to create someone like you. Clever enough to see your value.
Bette Sans Souci : Do you know of any others who were changed?
Caitlin Snow : There've been a few.
Cisco Ramon : But no one who looks like you.
[realizing what he just said]
Cisco Ramon : I'm sorry. That was inappropriate. Please don't leave.
Caitlin Snow : I know how to perform a lobotomy.

[Bette pulls up her shirt sleeve]
Caitlin Snow : Why didn't you say that you were shot?
Bette Sans Souci : It just grazed me.
Caitlin Snow : There's something in there.
Bette Sans Souci : [Caitlin pulls the "something" out with a pair of tweezers] A tracker.
Dr. Harrison Wells : [seeing Eiling and his soldiers on the surveillance cameras] Lock down the Pipeline. Get Bette out of here. I'll take care of Eiling.
-
General Wade Eiling : Harrison Wells. How the mighty have fallen.
Dr. Harrison Wells : General.

Dr. Harrison Wells : One adapts. One evolves. One becomes intent on reversing one's fortune.
General Wade Eiling : Always the idealist.
-
Dr. Harrison Wells : Her cellular structure's unlike anything I've ever seen.
Caitlin Snow : Her nitrogen levels are off the charts.
Barry Allen : Do you think we can help her?
Dr. Harrison Wells : To answer that question, we have to understand how she works, and to understand that, first we have to see her in action.
Cisco Ramon : You want her to blow stuff up. Yes! Now we're talking.
Dr. Harrison Wells : Not in here. She's too unstable.
Cisco Ramon : I know.
Dr. Harrison Wells : I know you know.
-
Cisco Ramon : A VA file number is all the info you have on the bomber?
Barry Allen : CCPD's been ordered off the case.
Caitlin Snow : Well, who has the power to do that?
Barry Allen : The Army. Uh, some General. His name was Eiling, I think.
Dr. Harrison Wells : [entering] General Wade Eiling.
Barry Allen : You know him?
Dr. Harrison Wells : Yeah, I know him. About ten years ago, General Wade Eiling contracted S.T.A.R. Labs to develop enhanced gene therapies for soldiers. I was interested in the potential medical benefits for civilians. General Eiling really wanted to develop mind-reading capabilities for interrogation purposes. I stopped the study when I saw his techniques up close, but our split was less than amicable.
-
General Wade Eiling : [flashback to five years earlier] This is everything we've been working to achieve.
Dr. Harrison Wells : We may have the same goals, General, but not the same means.
General Wade Eiling : I will not have this project end before it even begins.
Dr. Harrison Wells : And as long as he's on my premises, I will not have him subjected to that kind of cruelty anymore. We're done. We're done, General. Get out.
[as Eiling leaves, Wells enters another room and approaches a cage labeled "Grodd"]
Dr. Harrison Wells : Hey. It's okay. It's okay, boy. It's okay. He's gone. Don't you worry. I have a whole different future in mind for you.
-
Barry Allen : Hey, what's wrong? Did Eiling find out you're here?
Bette Sans Souci : No. Caitlin was just about to give me the not-so-good news.
Caitlin Snow : The shrapnel in your body has merged with you on a cellular level.
Dr. Harrison Wells : And the technology required to unsplice your DNA... it hasn't been invented yet.
Barry Allen : [sympathetically] Bette.
Bette Sans Souci : It's okay. Roger that. I... I just need a minute. Don't worry.
[standing to leave]
Bette Sans Souci : Pretty sure I can cry without blowing stuff up.
-
General Wade Eiling : Nothing out of the ordinary occurred. The military was simply conducting an underwater weapons test. There is no need for panic or alarm. Central City is safe. I guarantee you.
Barry Allen : [watching on TV] He murdered Bette right in front of me. And there's nothing we can do to him.
Dr. Harrison Wells : Powerful men have a way of avoiding consequences.
Caitlin Snow : You gonna be okay?
Barry Allen : Yeah.
-
Dr. Harrison Wells : I think our Cisco's developing a little bit of a crush on you.
Bette Sans Souci : Not sure I'm prize-winning date material anymore.
Dr. Harrison Wells : Change is hard. The same accident that changed you put me in this chair.
Bette Sans Souci : Sorry. I didn't know.
Dr. Harrison Wells : I don't share that story with you to garner sympathy. I tell it to illustrate a larger point.
Bette Sans Souci : And what point is that?
Dr. Harrison Wells : That I would do anything to get back what I lost. As would you.
Bette Sans Souci : I would. I just don't know how.
-
General Wade Eiling : I was wrong about you, Harrison. You're still one step ahead. Impressive for a man without the use of his legs.
Dr. Harrison Wells : I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about, Wade.
General Wade Eiling : A girl who can transform ordinary objects into explosives with the touch of her hand. And today I saw a man who can move faster than the blink of an eye. Extraordinary. The night your particle accelerator died was the night the impossible was born. I think we should start working together again, Harrison.
Dr. Harrison Wells : I think you should leave.
General Wade Eiling : You know, I can have a squadron of soldiers here in minutes.
Dr. Harrison Wells : You know, I can have an army of press here...
[snapping his fingers]
Dr. Harrison Wells : ...like that. Believe me, General, I'd be more than happy to testify to your involvement in activities that were... less than humane. Threaten me again, and I will end you, General. And I am not talking about your career.
General Wade Eiling : [moving to leave] You know, I figured out your little secret, Wells. Won't be long before the public catches on, as well.

Barry Allen : Where's Bette?
Cisco Ramon : She left.
Barry Allen : What do you mean? Where'd she go?
Dr. Harrison Wells : She didn't say.
Barry Allen : Well, where the hell could she be?
