Turn, Turn, Turn (2014)

Bill Paxton: John Garrett

Quotes 

• John Garrett : Phil, this is me being honest.

  Phil Coulson : No, John, this is you being a psychopath.

• John Garrett : I was happy when I heard you'd made it through.

  Phil Coulson : So happy you had me tortured for three days to find out how I did it.

  John Garrett : I didn't enjoy that. Phil, this is me being honest.

  Phil Coulson : No, John, this is you being a psychopath.

  John Garrett : [to May]  I know you'd follow him to the grave, so...

  [to Fitz] 

  John Garrett : As for you, Agent Fitz, you'd hold a very high rank on our Tech Division if you volunteer. If not, you'd have no rank and a lot of pain. Of course, either way, your services will be required.

  Leo Fitz : You're gonna suffer for what you've done. And I... I plan on being a very big part of that.

• Phil Coulson : [about Hydra]  Cut off a head, two more will take its place.

  John Garrett : Is it a head? I thought it was a limb.

  Leo Fitz : No, no, no, it's a head.

  Phil Coulson : It's a head.

• John Garrett : I'll say it again. Best bet to save her - use the ventilation system to get above the sit room. Drop down using Fitz's sweet, little mouse hole, and put two bullets through Victoria Hand's heart.

  Leo Fitz : Yeah, it's an option, sir.

  Phil Coulson : Without questioning?

  John Garrett : Questioning what? Whether she wants to kill us fast or slow?

  Phil Coulson : Last time we did that, we shot the wrong man.

  John Garrett : Because she wanted us to! Phil, this is a battle for S.H.I.E.L.D.'s soul, and we're on the front lines. History will remember us this day.

  Phil Coulson : That's right. It's for S.H.I.E.L.D.'s soul. And murder without consideration is a sure...

  John Garrett : "Consideration"? Consider this. She had one of my men killed with a bomb rigged to his gas pedal. The other two were floating in the hotel pool, and they weren't doing the backstroke.

  Melinda May : But we can just as easily ice her.

  John Garrett : You don't put someone like her on ice. She had Skye shot in the stomach - in the stomach - because she was curious. Mike Peterson - burned alive and turned into some kind of freak. She tortured you, using the same machine she used to brainwash that bitch in the flower dress. And right now, she's probably doing the same to Agent Simmons. Oh, I've considered it, my friend.

  Leo Fitz : No. Simmons will be fine.

  John Garrett : Just being realistic, kid.
