- Irina: Agnet Vaughn has trouble sleeping. When you're in the field.
- Sydney: I doubt he told you that.
- Irina: No he didn't have to tell me I could see it in his eyes. You're so willing to take risks for your country, why aren't you willing to do the same for you're own happiness?
- Jack: I hardly think you've earned he right to give anyone relationship advice.
- Sydney: [to Sark] I'm here to remind you what I hope is obvious but I don't wanna overestimate your intelligence. If you burn me, I burn you.
- Sydney: Sloane wouldn't agree to partner with him unless Sark made it worth his while. Do you have any idea what they're after?
- Jack: Given the scope of Sark's previous contacts and operations, he could be offering almost anything. What concerns me more is that your mother knew we were double agents before she turned herself in. She may have told Sark.
- Sydney: I'll find out.
- Jack: Before you do, consider this: two months ago she surrendered to the CIA. Yesterday, Sark made a back-door agreement with Sloane that places him inside SD-6. Do you believe that's just a coincidence?
- Irina: I cannot give you details because I don't trust the CIA. They almost had me executed two weeks ago. The only way for me to maintain my value is to tell you only what you need to know in order to stay ahead of Sloane. And all you need to know now is that if I'm not allowed to leave, everything you've worked to accomplish will be lost.
- Julian Sark: I must admit, this is one of the most impressive operations I've seen. Though it is a touch pathetic how so many of them believe they actually work for the CIA.
- Arvin Sloane: Look at me. You've offered me a substantial prize to make our partnership worthwhile, but do not think for a second that gives you the right to insult my people.
- Arvin Sloane: I've been a presence in Sydney's life since she was born. Sydney will believe whatever I tell her to.
- Julian Sark: And her father? He must often battle the temptation to tell her the truth about SD-6. I'd hate to see Jack's paternal instincts compromise our objectives. So, for the time being, I wouldn't tell him what those codes are really for.
- Mysterious Caller: We have your wife, and, yes, she's alive. You will provide us with the account numbers for all of SD-6's investments, or the Alliance will be informed that you failed to carry out her execution.
- Arvin Sloane: Offer me proof that she's alive. Until then, know this: as soon as I hang up the phone I will use every available resource to find out who I'm talking to and when I do, it will be my sincere pleasure to make your acquaintance.
- Michael Vaughn: I didn't think Devlin, my superior, would mind me having you research this, but he did and he ordered me to let you go.
- Will Tippin: Hold on. Wait a second. There's something here. Okay, look, I'll narrow the test scores down to a small group of kids. Now Devlin won't be able to deny the value of that.
- Michael Vaughn: He thinks since you're a journalist, since you've been trained to report what you know, that you're a security risk.
- Michael Vaughn: This watch belonged to my father. It's broken now, but it used to keep perfect time. And when he gave it to me, he said, "You could set your heart by this watch". It stopped October 1st: the day we met.
- [Sydney is about to respond when her pager goes off, then Vaughn's goes off as well. They look to see who it is]
- Michael Vaughn: Kendall.
- Sydney: Me too.
- F.B.I. Asst. Director Kendall: Well, if she was so concerned about helping us stay ahead of SD-6, she could have told us what was at stake.
- Irina: And what would you have done? Given Sydney false control codes to hand over to SD-6? Sark may have known the difference and she would have been exposed as a double agent. I wasn't willing to risk her life that way.
- Sydney: You said you didn't tell us the truth because you were trying to protect me, because you didn't want to risk Sark finding out that I was a double agent. The thing is, someone now has the ability to detonate six nuclear weapons and I am responsible. So I am going to be part of the team that finds and disarms those warheds no matter what you do. But if you were telling the truth when you said you wanted to protect me, then, Mom, I need your help.
- Will Tippin: [to Vaughn] Look, except for you, Sydney, and Jack, everybody I know - and a lot of people I don't - they think I'm a lying junkie, okay? And helping you, doing something for the CIA, it felt like a chance to do something that mattered again, you know? Like, I don't know, maybe I went through all this crap for a reason.
- Irina: Jack, we're in enemy territory and the PRF knows we're here. We need to start trusting each other right now.
- Will Tippin: Nothing's wrong?
- [she shakes her head negatively]
- Will Tippin: Syd, if we'd just met I'd know something's wrong
