Beginning of the End (2014)

Brett Dalton: Grant Ward

Quotes 

• Grant Ward : You're not gonna kill us with the bomb. You'd go, too.

  Skye : No. I have a weapon much better than a bomb that will absolutely destroy you.

  Grant Ward : And why's that?

  Skye : Because you slept with her, and she's really pissed off.

  [May attacks Ward] 

• Skye : I feel sorry for you... betraying the only people who gave you a chance at being a decent human being. Fitz was a hero because he still wanted to give you that chance after everything. But some people are just born evil, I guess.

  Grant Ward : Yeah. Yeah, maybe they are. I've learned things about you, Skye... history... things you'll want to know. You and I aren't that different.

  Skye : [Scoffs]  You're not the evil I was referring to. Garrett is evil. You're just... weak, doing anything you're told. I hope Garrett orders you to walk into traffic.

• Ian Quinn : This is our strategy consultant, John Garrett.

  General Jacobs : I want full disclosure right now, or our boys will come in and shut you down. Why do I hear gunfire?

  John Garrett : You hear the dying breath of an old world, general. And a new world is coming. I've tasted it on my tongue.

  General Jacobs : This is your strategy consultant?

  Ian Quinn : He's... part-time.

  John Garrett : New strategy - you shut your mouth and give us everything we want.

  General Jacobs : You threaten a United States general, and there are consequences.

  John Garrett : Oh, you feel powerful now, don't you? But you're all just slaves who will serve our future.

  General Jacobs : Listen, you crazy son of a bitch...

  Ian Quinn : Gentlemen, perhaps a small demonstration will...

  John Garrett : Yes. Oh, yes. A demonstration.

  [punches in General Jacob's stomach] 

  John Garrett : I've seen the future. I've glimpsed it through the eyes of every creature - dead, living, and yet to be. This is the beginning.

  Grant Ward : The beginning of what, John?

  John Garrett : The end.

• John Garrett : [Writing with a nail on a board]  Just getting some ideas down. I can't keep everything in my head.

  Grant Ward : Got to be honest with you, John. Looks like you're kind of losing it.

  John Garrett : [Chuckling]  I'm alive for the first time, thanks to you. Took some hits along the way, but we did it.

• Grant Ward : What the hell did you say to Garrett?

  Raina : I listened.

  Grant Ward : He's psychotic! Did you notice that? I just had to lock up six government officials because he butchered the seventh one. He completely lost it in there.

  Raina : You're wrong. Garrett's not lost. Far from it, he's connected now.

  Grant Ward : Don't tell me you're following him into this madness. His talk of evolution...

  Raina : I agree with him. *You're* the one who follows him.
