Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Jane Doe : [Jane Doe tells Agent Weller about a flashback she had]  I had another memory. It was my most vivid one yet.

  Kurt Weller : What was it?

  Jane Doe : It was hot. I was high above the treetops. We were taking out a hostile target.

• [Agent Weller tells Dr. Borden about the box he has of his father's last belongings] 

  Kurt Weller : There's a box in my place. It's pictures. Clothes. It's the last belongings of my father. I can't throw it out. Why?

  Dr. Robert Borden : That box is the last piece you have of him. Once it's gone, so is he.

  Kurt Weller : I want him gone. I hate him.

  Dr. Robert Borden : He was still your father, Kurt. And you're still using the present tense.

  Kurt Weller : My hate is not going anywhere.

  Dr. Robert Borden : That's because you're not dealing with it. Can you articulate where these feelings come from? If you can't name it, externalize it, then you can't move past it, Kurt.

• [Agent Naz tells the FBI team that the DEA sells weapons to the Mexican cartel] 

  Kurt Weller : How does a Mexican cartel steal weapons from the New York DEA?

  Nas Kamal : They don't. The DEA sold them.

  Jane Doe : What?

  Patterson : That was through the gun-waltzing program? Why couldn't I find that?

  Nas Kamal : 'Cause you don't work for the NSA.

• [Agent Weller tells Jane Doe what gun-waltzing is] 

  Jane Doe : What is gun-waltzing?

  Kurt Weller : It's a bad idea. It puts these weapons back on the streets through agents posing as arms dealers.

  Nas Kamal : Then trace the weapons back to the big players for big busts.

  Kurt Weller : Only sometimes, they lose them.

• [Agent Weller tells Agent Zapata that he doesn't like working with Jane anymore than she does] 

  Kurt Weller : Every tattoo on Jane's body has come from Sandstorm. The only difference now is we know who's behind the curtain.

  Tasha Zapata : What if it's a setup? What if Jane's tattoo is leading us into a trap?

  Kurt Weller : Jane was the trap. All right? We already fell into it. She played us. Look, I don't like working with her any more than you do. I don't like being in the same room as her. But... it's the only way to end this.

  [as Weller turns around to see Jane behind him] 

• [Agent Reade asks the team if it feels wrong to them that Jane Doe is helping their investigation] 

  Edgar Reade : So, are we just not gonna talk about how messed up it is Jane's out here with us?

  Kurt Weller : Sandstorm are watching. It has to look like business as usual. Otherwise, it could blow her cover.

  Edgar Reade : It was one thing when we thought she was a pawn, but her mother's the leader, and her brother's a homicidal maniac. Sandstorm is in Jane's blood.

  Tasha Zapata : Just keep her in front of me. I don't want to wind up on the wrong end of a friendly fire report.

• [Agent Weller interrogates Agent Valentine Barker] 

  Valentine Barker : I don't know what you want from me, all right? I haven't done anything wrong.

  Kurt Weller : So why were you getting shot at by cartel members, Valentine?

• [Agent Naz tells the FBI team that they need to find Kingston as Agent Patterson gets snappy] 

  Nas Kamal : Look, we can't worry about that right now. Kingston's about to sell the Juarez Cartel enough firepower to start a war. We need to find him and fast.

  Patterson : Can't you just use your magic phone?

  Nas Kamal : Excuse me?

  Patterson : Oh, does it stop working if they ditch their plates?

  Kurt Weller : Patterson... stop it.

• [Agent Weller tells his entire team to work together] 

  Kurt Weller : I'm sick of all of this.

  Kurt Weller : [Weller looks to Zapata]  Until we stop Sandstorm, Jane is part of this team.

  Kurt Weller : [Weller looks to Patterson]  And, Patterson, stop treating Naz and the NSA like a threat and start working with them. We are all here for the same thing. It's not about keeping score.

  Kurt Weller : [Weller looks to Naz]  And, Naz, this is a joint task force. I get it... but if you and I keep trying to run the ball in opposite directions, this mission will implode before it starts. So let's all take a breath... and try and figure out a way that we can work together to get these missiles back before this cartel hits whatever they're trying to hit today.

• [Agent Weller tells Jane Doe what he did with Taylor Shaw's body] 

  Jane Doe : Why haven't you told anybody that you found Taylor's body? I searched her name, and nothing new comes up.

  Kurt Weller : [Weller sighs]  I exhumed her body in secret and buried her.

  Kurt Weller : [Weller chuckles]  Somewhere peaceful. My team knows. Sarah knows. Taylor's family is gone now. And so is her killer. So I don't see what good the truth will do anyone else. So let the horror of what my father did die with him.

  [as Weller tears up] 

• [Jane Doe tells Agent Weller that she misses being Taylor Shaw] 

  Jane Doe : [Jane pauses]  I miss her.

  Kurt Weller : You didn't know her, Jane.

  Jane Doe : No, I mean, I... I miss being her. And maybe that's a horrible thing to say to you, but we're trying to be honest with each other now, right? Well, that's the truth. I miss being Taylor Shaw. And I understand you not wanting to be in the same room with me because if I were you, I would hate me, too.

  Kurt Weller : I don't ha... I don't hate you, Jane. I just don't know who you are anymore.

  Jane Doe : Yeah, well, that makes two of us.

• [Agent Weller suggests to the team that they evacuate East Side Manhattan] 

  Kurt Weller : We need to consider evacuating.

  Patterson : Evacuating what? The entire East Side of Manhattan?

  Edgar Reade : Yeah, what are we supposed to tell 'em? Go to the West Side?

• [Agent Naz congratulates Agent Weller] 

  Nas Kamal : Nice work out there.

  Kurt Weller : See what happens when you stay out of my way?

  [as the two smile] 

• [Agent Naz and the team agree to continue following Jane's tattoos] 

  Nas Kamal : The intel on Jane's body seems to have come from a number of sources from within the public and private sector. We've ID'd a few of them already.

  Kurt Weller : So, we keep following these tattoos until we track down the rest of the sources. Then we'll swoop in. Hopefully take down all of Sandstorm's people in one hit.

  Nas Kamal : That's a bit of an oversimplification, but, yes, we are making progress.

  Kurt Weller : [Weller gasps]  See you guys tomorrow.

• [Agent Weller finds out Allison Knight is pregnant outside of his apartment door] 

  Kurt Weller : Can I buy you a drink?

  Allison Knight : Think I'll pass.

  Kurt Weller : What are you doing here? Is it about...

  Allison Knight : I'm pregnant.

• [Allison Knight and Agent Weller talk about the baby she's pregnant with] 

  Allison Knight : The truth is, I'm not great at this stuff, okay? And I was scared. This is gonna be your kid, too... all right? I'm not looking for an answer any time soon, and I'm truly not suggesting that we get back together, 'cause I don't think we should, but... if you want to be a part of this kid's life, I will make sure that there is space for that to happen.

  Kurt Weller : You know what my mom used to say to me... when I was young? Before she took off. 'You're just like your father.'

  Kurt Weller : [Weller looks over to Allison]  You're gonna be a great mom.
