Quotes 

• Leo Fitz : Are you mental? I did explain what I meant using the Queen's bloody English!

  Grant Ward : I use normal English. Words like "duck" and "run" and "might blow us to pieces."

  Leo Fitz : Congratulations, Agent Ward, you managed to string three words together in a sentence.

• Skye : Usually one person doesn't solve the solution, but 100 people with 1% of the solution? That will get it done. I think that's beautiful, pieces solving a puzzle.

  Grant Ward : You and I see the world differently.

• Phil Coulson : [about Skye]  Imagine what she'll do with our resources.

  Grant Ward : I am. That's exactly what I'm imagining during this frown. You brought me on for risk assessment. She's a risk.

  Phil Coulson : I'm calling this. But your frown will be on record.

• Grant Ward : Skye, the girl is not qualified to be a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent.

  Phil Coulson : That's why I invited her on as a consultant. S.H.I.E.L.D. does it all the time. Technically Stark is a consultant.

• Skye : Okay, we're sure, right? Everyone's sure?

  Jemma Simmons : We're all on board.

  Leo Fitz : Yeah, let's do this fast.

  Grant Ward : No turning back. No freezing up.

  Leo Fitz : Because if we do, then...

  Grant Ward : All of us die.

  Jemma Simmons : We know.

  Skye : Yeah.

  Leo Fitz : All right.

  Melinda May : [Revs engine]  You guys talk a lot.

• Phil Coulson : Whose idea was it to blow a hole in the plane?

  Grant Ward : It was everyone's idea, sir.

  Phil Coulson : Nice work

• Grant Ward : Where's your side arm?

  Melinda May : If I need a gun, I'll take one.

  Grant Ward : Right, I forgot I was working with the cavalry.

  Melinda May : Don't ever call me that.

  Grant Ward : [after they get attacked by a bunch of commandos]  Should have taken more guns.

• Leo Fitz : [Tied up]  This is my fault. Should have learned kung fu.

  Jemma Simmons : Oh, yeah, but I shouldn't have pushed you into the field in the first place. You weren't ready.

  Grant Ward : It was my job to makea proper threat assessment.

  Leo Fitz : [to Simmons]  Uh, we. *We* weren't ready.

  Skye : This wouldn't have happened if Agent May wasn't on the stick. She would have busted out some of her ninja know how.

  Leo Fitz : Agent May? No. No, no. She transferred from administration.

  Skye : Well, I've seen her destroy a guy, so...

  [They all look at Ward] 

  Grant Ward : You've heard of the cavalry?

  Jemma Simmons : Yeah.

  Leo Fitz : Yeah. Everyone at the academy talks about stor -

  [Sudden realization] 

  Jemma Simmons , Leo Fitz : She's the cavalry?

  Melinda May : [Wakes up]  I told you never to call me that.

• Grant Ward : Looks like Skye might end up as more than just a consultant, despite our reservations. She could turn into a solid asset... with some serious work.

  Melinda May : Well, if she wants to be a field agent, she'll need a supervising officer someone disciplined, someone good.

  [Smiles at Ward] 

  Grant Ward : All right. I'll do it. Just to clarify, you were, uh, talking about me, right?

  [May smiles] 

• Grant Ward : We've been called in to investigate a 0-8-4. We all know what that means.

  Phil Coulson : Yes, we do. It means we don't know what that means.

• Grant Ward : This area has lots of rebel uprisings.

  Skye : Yeah, people are fighting back against the government's mining policies. It's pretty kick ass.

  Grant Ward : [Sarcastic]  Yeah, it's kick ass, all the violence.
