- Michael Vaughn: Whatever Lauren did to me, I want you to know I take full responsibility for what's happened. I messed up, and if you can't get past that, I understand. But will you try?
- Sydney Bristow: I don't know.
- Michael Vaughn: Will you at least think about it? Because it's all I can think about.
- Sydney Bristow: Yeah. I will think about it.
- Jack Bristow: I suggest you focus your energy into achieving closure on this matter.
- Michael Vaughn: No one wants Lauren in custody more than I do!
- Jack Bristow: That's not the kind of closure I'm referring to.
- Michael Vaughn: [Jack hands Vaughn a key] What's this?
- Jack Bristow: It's the key to my storage facility, you've been there before. In it you'll find false identification, unmarked and untraceable weapons, contact sheets, as well as disposal facilities capable with dealing with her remains.
- Michael Vaughn: That might be your way of dealing with things, but it's not mine.
- [Vaughn tries to give the key back]
- Jack Bristow: Keep it.
- [Jack walks off]
- Michael Vaughn: I want to find your sister, but I need to find my wife. Lauren cannot be allowed to get away with what she's done.
- Sydney Bristow: Well, Lauren might. And you have to be prepared to deal with that.
- Sydney Bristow: What you did to Dr. Lee was unacceptable.
- Michael Vaughn: Well, you wouldn't say that if I gotten something out of him.
- Sydney Bristow: What he knew of didn't know is beside the point.
- Michael Vaughn: Exactly! The point is we're trying to find your sister.
- Sydney Bristow: And if you'd gotten the answer it still wouldn't have been okay.
- Michael Vaughn: Sloane has her; wouldn't you do anything to get her back?
- Sydney Bristow: You knew we had other options.
- Michael Vaughn: Sydney; the man tortured you, he tortured Marshall, he tortured your sister...
- Sydney Bristow: This isn't about him, this is about you. And what I saw scared me!
- Michael Vaughn: [He pauses] Yeah, well it scared me too.
- [pauses]
- Michael Vaughn: What I'm willing to do to find her... When I was with Dr. Lee, all I could think about was if we get to Sloane, we'll get to her. And I want to find your sister, but I need to find my wife! Lauren cannot be allowed to get away with what she's done.
- Sydney Bristow: Well Lauren might. And you have to be prepared to deal with that.
- Michael Vaughn: It was a judgment call, if it was the wrong one, I'm sorry! I would never put your life in jeopardy!
- Sydney Bristow: You saw a chance to get Lauren and you took it no matter what! You didn't have my back.
- Michael Vaughn: We got Nadia, that's what counts.
- Sydney Bristow: I understand what you're going through. What it feels like to be betrayed. You saw how my hatred of Sloane consumed me. Vaughn; you saved me from that. From letting my anger turn me into a different person. And now it is my turn to do that for you. But you have to let me; you have to listen to me. You have to believe me when I tell you that the person you are right now is not the person you want to be. I told you that I didn't know if we could figure things out between us, I still don't. But I do know that we can't even begin to try until you deal with this.
- Sydney Bristow: [about Sloane] He's never divulged the specifics of this message, but he was willing to risk everything... his wealth, his legitimacy, even his life... to acquire it. This is his endgame. We have to believe that he will kill Nadia in pursuit of it.
- Arvin Sloane: I don't want to hurt you.
- Nadia Santos: Then why are you doing this?
- Arvin Sloane: When Abraham was asked to take his only child, Isaac, and offer him up to God, he didn't hesitate. And he took in his hand the fire and the knife, and it was only then, that the angel came. But Abraham had to be willing to make this unbearable choice.
- Nadia Santos: I understand.
- Arvin Sloane: You do?
- Nadia Santos: You're a man of faith.
- Arvin Sloane: Oh, my child. My child.
- [Nadia opens her restraints with a pen and stabs Sloane with the needle he used on her]
- Nadia Santos: How do you like it?
- Arvin Sloane: What you did yesterday, destroying all the fluid like that: I want you to know I was not angry with you. I was proud of your courage.
- Nadia Santos: Every Sunday at the orphanage in San Telmo, they made us dress up in our finest clothes. They would have us stand in line for hours waiting to be chosen by families. I wouldn't do it. I'd make myself filthy and always frown. I didn't want to be chosen, because I knew... I knew that somewhere my dad was still looking for me. And one day he'd come to take me away from that place... If I had known it was you I was waiting for, I would have cleaned up.
- Sydney Bristow: In the videotape, when Nadia was a child, she was drawing something. What I assume was Rambaldi's message. If the message was already relayed, why is she valuable?
- Katya Derevko: Your sister was taken away from the laboratory before she could complete the message.
- Katya Derevko: The only reason I joined the Russian Secret Service was to help Irina find her younger daughter. For years we heard nothing about her; every lead went cold. But then recently we found out that her father, Arvin Sloane, was also looking for her... What is it, Sydney?
- Sydney Bristow: Sloane has her.
- Jack Bristow: I know why you checked yourself out of medical services early. I know you're under the impression you're fine, that all you need to do is hold yourself together, bury yourself in work.
- Michael Vaughn: Get to the point, Jack.
- Toni Cummings: Do you know how much being here cuts into my market share? Can't even get a lipstick in this place.
- Marshall Flinkman: And... to be honest with you, I kind of like working for the good guys. No offense.
- Toni Cummings: None taken.
- Arvin Sloane: If we overload the cerebrum, her brain won't be able to function properly. She could die.
- Julian Sark: But we would have the equation, wouldn't we?
- Arvin Sloane: Don't. Don't push me, Julian.
- Lauren Reed: You are wasting time we do not have. We have all chosen this path, Arvin. We have all made sacrifices. I trust you are willing to do the same.
- Arvin Sloane: You're gonna be okay. I promise.
- Nadia Santos: No, I won't. I guess the angel isn't coming.
- Arvin Sloane: The deal's off. If you go quietly, you leave unharmed.
- Lauren Reed: You remind me of my father. When he learned the CIA was close to identifying me as Covenant, he was willing to do anything to protect me, even take the fall. He loved me that much. He's dead now, because reaching this goal is far more important.
- Sydney Bristow: [about Sloane] It's okay. You're safe. He will never hurt you again.
- Nadia Santos: He protected me.
- Sydney Bristow: [to Dr. Lee, as she ties him to a chair] Remember me from Taipei? Red hair, you liked my teeth.
- Michael Vaughn: [Vaughn picks up a liquid dropper and fills it with a substance he found on the table. He empties it onto Dr. Lee's leg and it burns like acid] Now I know you can't feel that, but you can see it, and you can imagine what it's gonna feel like when I pour the rest of this on you.
- Sydney Bristow: Vaughn!
- Michael Vaughn: You met with Sloane in Zurich!
- Dr. Zhang Lee: It was only a charity function.
- Michael Vaughn: Don't lie to me.
- Dr. Zhang Lee: He asked me about the inoculations, about the passenger.
- Michael Vaughn: Where is he?
- Sydney Bristow: Vaughn...
- Dr. Zhang Lee: [incredibly scared] I don't know...
- Michael Vaughn: Tell me where he is!
- [Vaughn holds the canister of acid over Dr. Lee]
- Dr. Zhang Lee: Pleeeeaase!
- Sydney Bristow: Vaughn, you can't do this!
- Michael Vaughn: Why not? He would!
- Sydney Bristow: You're not him!
- Michael Vaughn: Tell me where he is!
- Dr. Zhang Lee: [Crying] If I could; I would tell you.
- Michael Vaughn: Wrong answer.
- [Vaughn pours the acid on Dr. Lee]
