- Francie Calfo: Mr. Bristow let me ask you a question. Let's say you're hanging out at your favorite restaurant, with your friends... or whatever. You like to go there, you like the food, what color are the walls?
- Jack Bristow: I'm... not really into interior decorating.
- Jack Bristow: [a short time later] You know, to the Vietnamese and Chinese, the color white means death and bad fortune.
- [pause]
- Jack Bristow: Try red.
- Michael Vaughn: [about Sloane's wife death] Killing his wife wouldn't surprise me. Eating his wife wouldn't surprise me.
- F.B.I. Asst. Director Kendall: Just so we're clear, Mr. Vaughn, I know all about your participation in busting Agent Bristow out of federal custody. Convince her to talk to her mother, or face charges of obstructing justice and harboring a fugitive.
- Michael Vaughn: Guess it's two-for-one day on blackmail.
- Michael Vaughn: When she got done with my father, he could only be identified by his dental records.
- Francie Calfo: You know what I wanna do to the guy who introduced Will to heroin? I want to kill him. With my hands. I just want to kill him.
- Jack Bristow: I can imagine.
- Sydney Bristow: The idea that the CIA is willing to work with Irina Derevko is insane.
- Jack Bristow: Worse, it's naive. Your mother didn't just conveniently turn herself in. This is all part of the manipulation.
- Sydney Bristow: Well, she's their problem now. She's not yours. And she's not mine.
- [When putting on her jacket, she winces a little bit]
- Jack Bristow: You okay?
- Sydney Bristow: My shoulder's healing, if that's what you mean.
- Jack Bristow: It's not, actually.
- Sydney Bristow: I don't support the death penalty. I but I hope she dies for all that she has done. I really do.
- Sydney Bristow: SD-6 and the Alliance believe that my mother's in hiding. And they know that Khasinau is dead, and they're correct to assume that what's left of her organization is vulnerable. The Alliance wants whatever assets they can get their hands on.
- Michael Vaughn: So where are they starting?
- Sydney Bristow: My mother used blackmail. Extensively. In running her operation, she would get dirt on people - powerful and important people... and coerce them into doing whatever she needed. Pornographic photographs, illegally obtained audio files, names, dates, they're all on one computer disk.
- Sydney Bristow: How's Weiss?
- Michael Vaughn: He's still in the hospital, but the doctors say he's gonna be okay. And until then, I've gotta feed his fish.
- Marcus Dixon: You know, you always do that.
- Sydney Bristow: What?
- Marcus Dixon: What you just did with your hair. It's your thing.
- Sydney Bristow: I don't have a thing.
- Sydney Bristow: It is. It's your thing.
- Michael Vaughn: You're not the easiest guy to work with, are you?
- F.B.I. Asst. Director Kendall: No. No, definitely not.
- Michael Vaughn: I know you want to see your daughter. I can guarantee you that is never going to happen unless she knows you're cooperating. Prove yourself. Give Sydney a reason to see you.
- Irina Derevko: Sydney? Interesting
- Irina Derevko: I've given you a gift and all you get from me is one.
- [Vaughn starts to walk away]
- Irina Derevko: . You look just like him.
- Michael Vaughn: Respectfully Syd, I don't think your father can think clearly where your mother is concerned.
- Sydney Bristow: And you can?
- Michael Vaughn: I'm trying and she has nothing to gain by lying.
- Sydney Bristow: She told me to pull the alarm.
- Jack Bristow: Yes, and for all you know, that could've made things worse. Sydney, you're smarter than this. Your mother wants you to think she's your ally. That she can help you get what you want. Her intel might even be accurate once, twice, but the minute you start depending on her, she will gut you.
- Francie Calfo: Will, what happened to your face?
- Will Tippin: You know the one thing they don't tell you about doing community service? Sunblock.
- Francie Calfo: It's just going to take me six months to get a legitimate liquor license!
- Will Tippin: So you're hanging out with the Gambino crime family and you're giving me grief about doing drugs?
- Francie Calfo: I just need a liquor license.
- Will Tippin: No, no, no, what you need is someone who knows how the system works. Someone who can help you navigate. What you need is me. You know, former drug addict reporter... and sometimes lobster impersonator.
- Sydney Bristow: Let's get something clear. You are not my mother. My mother was Laura Bristow. Laura Bristow died in a car accident twenty-one years ago. You are a traitor and a prisoner of the United States government.
- [Irina looks away, smug]
- Sydney Bristow: Look at me! We will interact only when necessary. You will address me as Agent Bristow and answer only the questions I ask. There will be no personal anecdotes, no comments about my job performance, no condolences or congratulations. Do you understand me?
