Quotes

Curtis Holt : I didn't take you for someone as crude as a terrorist.
Javelin : What you call crude I see as lucrative. All I needed was a fall guy, and you were far too perfect a mark.
Curtis Holt : Perhaps you are forgetting you are standing right in front of the bomb.
Javelin : You've heard of remote detonation, haven't you? For someone so smart, are you really this dumb?
Curtis Holt : Well, actually, if I wanted to do something super-dumb, I'd probably do something stupid like tackle you to the ground, take that tablet, and shove it down your throat.

Deputy Director Bell : I read through your mission report on the Switzerland op. Director Michaels signed off, but I noticed a few abnormalities.
John Diggle : Sir, if this is regarding the 23 minutes of unaccounted time in our field log, it's because we took a pit stop... for chocolate.
Curtis Holt : When in Rome, right?
[offering the box of chocolates]
Curtis Holt : Do you want some? You should have some.
Deputy Director Bell : Actually, I'm diabetic.
Curtis Holt : [withdrawing it] Oh, okay. Don't have some.

Curtis Holt : Why is there a mock-up photo of me IDed as Dr. Somto?
John Diggle : We need an undercover operative to impersonate Somto and make contact with Byrd. Somto claims he and Byrd only interfaced online, never face to face, thus the mock-up.
Curtis Holt : Uh, why does it have to be my face?
Deputy Director Bell : We need someone who can pull off a convincing charade. You have fourteen PHDs, including one in biochemical engineering. And you're fluent in five different languages, including Somto's native tongue.
Curtis Holt : Six, actually. Nowaways, I'm more of a "chill in the back of a van surrounded by monitors" kind of a guy.
John Diggle : Curtis, we don't need you to engage. Just put eyes on Byrd. Me and my team will handle the takedown and package retrieval.
Deputy Director Bell : Also, it's an order.

Curtis Holt : Target sighted. Heading to the sketchy loading dock to confirm.
John Diggle : Okay, Curtis. Once you get firm confirmation, we'll move in, but not before, so keep your cool, okay?
Curtis Holt : Sure. That'll be easy to do with wool pants.

Curtis Holt : Lyla copied the bank data because she suspected A.R.G.U.S. had something to hide. That data led us to Byrd. If there's a deeper connection that A.R.G.U.S. doesn't want anyone to find, I figured we should know first. Worth the risk, right?
John Diggle : Did you find anything?
Curtis Holt : Check it out.
John Diggle : It's a painting? It took you all night to decrypt a single image?
Curtis Holt : Do you realize how many decryption algorithms I had to run just to get the drive to boot up? This thing's security has security.
