Quotes 

• Auggie Anderson : Here's what you need to know about assets. They're not trained operatives. They are normal people who we see as targets of opportunity. And they screw up all the time. They're late, they lose stuff, they ask for crazy things...

  Annie Walker : But don't we have a responsibility to help her if she's in trouble?

  Auggie Anderson : Damn. You played the morality card.

  Annie Walker : You know I did. So, help me.

• Auggie Anderson : Annie, listen to yourself. You've been through a lot the past few weeks. With Sri Lanka, with Guam, with Ben. I'm worried it's making you paranoid.

  Annie Walker : No! Uhm... maybe.

  Auggie Anderson : Look, in our line of work, there's a very thin line between intuition and paranoia. Our job is to walk right up to that line... but never to cross it. I'm worried about you. As an operative and a friend.

  Annie Walker : I'm fine.

  Auggie Anderson : You will be.

• Auggie Anderson : [recognizes her although he is blind]  Annie Walker.

  Annie Walker : [smiles]  Auggie.

  [walks arm in arm with him] 

  Annie Walker : How do you do that? I'm not wearing perfume. These heels, although fantastic, are hardly unique. I don't get it.

  Auggie Anderson : What would you say if I said you projected a warm, fuzzy aura that I can sense?

  Annie Walker : [scoffs playfully]  I'd say you were trying to butter me up for something.

  [smiles] 

  Auggie Anderson : I could use a ride down to staff after work.

  Annie Walker : A-ha! The truth emerges!

• [last lines] 

  Auggie Anderson : [in bar]  Do I get to finish my beer this time?

  Annie Walker : Yeah. Not only that, I'm buying!

  [beckons to waitress]
