- Special Agent G. Callen: This crowd can smell a cop a mile away.
- Special Agent Sam Hanna: I smell like a cop?
- Special Agent G. Callen: Actually smell like baby powder, but that's a whole different conversation.
- [Callen exits the car]
- Special Agent G. Callen: What?... You're scaring me.
- Special Agent G. Callen: Kensi hates Disneyland.
- Special Agent Sam Hanna: The happiest place on Earth?
- Special Agent Kensi Blye: I have issues with... grown men in furry costumes.
- Special Agent Sam Hanna: Unless it's Thursday night.
- Special Agent Kensi Blye: Why get in touch with someone he hasn't seen for so long?
- Special Agent G. Callen: I'm just a naturally likeable guy.
- [Kensi scoffs]
- Special Agent Sam Hanna: Or he was desperate.
- Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange: Keep an eye on him.
- Special Agent Sam Hanna: He's good at spotting tails.
- Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange: And you're good at running them. Stay close. Lone wolf or not, Mr. Callen is one of our own.
- Special Agent Sam Hanna: You debrief after every case, you know what's not on files. And that's all you gonna say?
- Operational Psychologist Nate Getz: That's all I *can* say. If it affect NCIS, it's my job to speak up. But as far as the inner most thoughts of the field agents are concerned, it's my job to make sure they stay confidential... He trusts you more than anyone else, Sam.
- Navy Commander Neil Corby: I started considering all the possibilities with Tedrow. And I landed on this one. There's this story that's passed around the JAG guys. NCIS has an undercover operator who can turn himself in anyone at any time for any reason. Gets his man and he's gone. Like some urban legend. Doesn't even have a real name, just... Callen.
- Tech Operator Eric Beal: Got a call from Mira Mar Naval Brig. Perez just got a visit from Andres Rodrigo. AKA "Icy Andres." He's a 4th Street Flats enforcer. Who's a prime suspect in, I don't know, 8 homicides.
- Special Agent Sam Hanna: Hmmm.
- Tech Operator Eric Beal: Now unfortuneately police can't make anything stick, due to the fact that witnesses against Senor Icy, tend to suffer from such maladies as unnatural strangulation, untimely dismemberment, and unfortuneate spills down empty elevator shafts.
- Special Agent Sam Hanna: [to Kensi] Am I the only one who thinks he delivers that information a little to cheerfully?
- [Kensi signals she agrees]
- Tech Operator Eric Beal: Hey, don't hate. I love my job.
- Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange: Then tell her the truth. I'm certain she'll return the favor.
- Special Agent G. Callen: Which truth?
- Henrietta 'Hetty' Lange: The one that sets you free.
- Tech Operator Eric Beal: Hmm. Intrigue. Betrayal. This is getting good!
- Special Agent Kensi Blye: Sometimes he so cheerful, I just want to punch him, repeatedly.
- Special Agent Sam Hanna: He tossed the murder weapon so he wouldn't be caught with it. It wasn't a mugging, it was an execution.
- Special Agent Kensi Blye: I got it! Cowboy bar on Sunset.
- Special Agent G. Callen: With the mechanical bull?
- Special Agent Kensi Blye: Yeah.
- Special Agent G. Callen: Hetty plus mechanical bull plus tequila equals bar fight. Trust me. I've been there.
- Special Agent G. Callen: Four years ago, walking away seemed like the right thing to do but... I told her so many lies. The deeper you get, the easier it is to leave the lies in place, and just... disappear.
- Navy Commander Neil Corby: [Gasping after he's been shot] That's him. Callen.
- Special Agent Sam Hanna: [Sam shakes his head] I never heard of him.
- Special Agent Sam Hanna: I don't know this Jason Tedrow guy but he's becoming a pain in my ass. Is he retired now?
- Special Agent G. Callen: Almost.
