Vaughn – Okay, Listen to me. There’s something you need to know. When you first walked into my office with that stupid Bozo hair, I thought you were crazy. I thought you might actually be a crazy person. But I watched you and, I read your statement, and I've seen how you work, I've seen how you are in this job. In this job, you see darkness. You see the worst in people and though the jobs are different and the missions change, and the enemies have a thousand names, the one crucial thing, the one real responsibility you have is to not let your rage, and your resentment, and your disgust, darken you. When you’re at your absolute lowest, at your most depressed, just remember that you can always, you know. You got my number.
Vaughn – Syd… This watch belonged to my father. It’s broken now, but it used to keep perfect time. And when we gave it to me, he said, “You could set your heart by this watch.” It stopped October 1st... the day we met.
Sydney – Don’t use rational thought as a defense with me, not after all you and I have seen. Vaughn, you and I live and breathe madness every day on the job…there is no… rational thought! I can’t even pretend to have a conversation about anything else with you. What it comes down to is faith! What I was hoping you would say is, “Sydney I gave up; I gave up on us. I lost faith” But what you came here for … was closure… and there is not a chance you are getting that from me! I’m not gonna say I understand… I’m not gonna sympathize with you and tell you how hard it must be for you… but… you want to know how I am? I am horrible! Vaughn, I am ripped apart! And not because I lost you … but because… if it had been me… I would have waited… I would have found the truth… I wouldn't have given up on you! And now I realize… what an absolute waste that would have been!
Sydney – Everyday I wish I could go back in time, but I can’t. And as much as I … as much as I still have feelings for you, I won’t be the other woman, not ever.
Vaughn – Santa Barbara, actually I had this whole romantic weekend planned. Presidential suite at the Biltmore, candlelit dinner on the cliffs overlooking the ocean…So, we went into town, and she wouldn't stop talking about the zoo. So, we went to the zoo. Figured I’d get it over with. And then I saw how happy it made her. It made me forget about all my stupid plans. And here we had this personal chef making this unbelievable meal at the hotel, and … I proposed on one knee in saw dust in front of a giraffe with a crooked neck.
Sydney – The first time I learned of Prophet 5, my fiancé was gunned down in front of me. It turns out, he wasn't the first. They killed anyone who got to close. They’d infiltrated the highest levels of governments and the inner sanctums of intelligence agencies. They appeared to control entire sectors of technology, finance, and defense. We believed they were run by a group of twelve…whose power was everywhere and nowhere. Because no one knew who they were…until now. I've lived with secrets all my life. And I’m done.
Some excellent lines-quotes in my world from every season.
