• Irina Derevko : Look

  [Jack and Irina turn around to see a red horse] 

  Irina Derevko : Rambaldi wrote, when blood red horses roam the streets and angels fall from the sky, the chosen one and the passenger will clash and only one of them will survive.

  Jack Bristow : You really are through the looking glass aren't you? When I see angels fall from the sky, I'll start to worry.

  Irina Derevko : I just can't shake the feeling that tonight, one of my daughters will parish.

• Irina Derevko : I'll give you one chance to do the right thing. Not that you were ever any good at that. Which wire?

  Elena Derevko : It's useless... In a few minutes when this signal broadcasts, the whole world will be different. However you plan on torturing me I'll hold out, at least for that long.

  Irina Derevko : I'm not going to torture you; I'm going to let him do it.

  [She nods towards Jack] 

  Irina Derevko : And he really doesn't care for you. Especially after you tricked him into killing me, one thing you should know about Jack, he hates being anybody's puppet.

  Jack Bristow : I'm actually hoping you don't tell us what we need to know.

  [He is filling up syringes at a workstation] 

  Jack Bristow : There's a 50/50 chance Sydney cuts the right wire. I'm willing to take those odds if it means I get to stand here and watch you turn into an animal.

• Jack Bristow : It's been a rather interesting year for me. It's made me reevaluate certain parts of my life. I'm trying to have more fun these days.

  Elena Derevko : [Jack pushes needle into Elena's neck]  Waaiiit... How do I know you won't inject me anyway?

  Jack Bristow : You don't...

  Elena Derevko : White, tell her to cut the white wire.

  [Irina shots Elena in the head] 

  Irina Derevko : Sydney; cut the blue wire, and then run like hell, you have 15 seconds before the ball bursts.

• Sydney Bristow : [She is on the roof and Nadia approaches her]  Nadia!

  [Sydney realizes that Nadia has been infected] 

  Sydney Bristow : Nadia, it's me. It's Sydney. I don't want to hurt you.

  Jack Bristow : [Over the coms]  Sydney, what's happening?

  Sydney Bristow : It's Nadia, she's guarding the device. She's infected.

  Arvin Sloane : [to Elena]  This is all you're doing.

  Jack Bristow : You have to take her out.

  Sydney Bristow : No dad... She's my sister.

  Irina Derevko : Listen to me; she's not your sister anymore.

• Jack Bristow : The chopper should be here any minute.

  Irina Derevko : We both know how this is supposed to play out. You bring me back to the states; turn me over to your superiors.

  Jack Bristow : On foot, you could reach the border by daybreak.

  Irina Derevko : What about the agency? What would you tell them?

  Jack Bristow : Oh I think they know, no one can hold on to Irina Derevko for too long.

  [Irina smiles at Jack then kisses him. She walks over to Sydney] 

  Irina Derevko : Take care of your sister.

  Sydney Bristow : I will.

  Irina Derevko : Three years ago, when I told you were the chosen one, that only you could take down the greatest evil, I knew your mind must have been overwhelmed with confusion. But tonight you should recognize that you've done just that. Ohhh; I'm so proud of you.

  Sydney Bristow : Thank you.

  Irina Derevko : Sydney, you may not see me on your wedding day, but I'll see you.

  [Irina runs off]
