Quotes 

• John Reese : Good morning Finch...

  Harold Finch : Mr Reese. What have you been doing?

  John Reese : Corrupting Detective Fusco...

  Harold Finch : Does he really need any help in that regard?

• Harold Finch : I know you're good at stealing cars. How do you feel about helicopters?

  John Reese : Been a while since I've flown. Might be a little rusty.

  Harold Finch : On the bright side, if you don't remember, it'll be a short fall.

• Alicia Corwin : You're a hard man to find, Harold.

  Harold Finch : I don't know who you...

  Alicia Corwin : Save it. We met before, remember? Nathan introduced you as his IT guy. He always had a talent for understatement.

  Harold Finch : What do you want from me, Alicia?

  Alicia Corwin : Nothing complicated. You created God. And now you're gonna help me shut it down.

• Harold Finch : You hired HR yourself. You were willing to risk your own life to find me?

  Caroline Turing : I did this corporate training thing once - I was blackmailing the CEO, long story. But they did this exercise called the trust fall where you close your eyes, and fall, and wait for someone to catch you. I knew you boys wouldn't let me down.

• Alicia Corwin : Before Nathan died, before your machine killed him, I could tell something was eating away at him, the ethics of what he was building. I thought he was fighting with himself over it. But he was fighting with you. He knew, didn't he? The hubris of creating something as powerful as the machine. I can feel it right now. Watching us, listening to us. There's no hiding from it. I'm so tired of running.

  Harold Finch : I've made some mistakes. But building the machine is not one of them. You haven't been running from the machine, Alicia, and the machine didn't kill Nathan. You've been running from people. From people that you and I both trusted.

• Harold Finch : Thermostat has a motion detector camera. It'll capture the face of any patient coming or going from Ms. Turing's office. Should be able to identify the more prominent ones in no time.I'm guessing one of them hired HR to keep her quiet. Question is Which one?

  John Reese : Till we figure that out, I'm going to want to stay as close to Turing as possible.

  Harold Finch : I agree. Time for you to work through some of your issues, Mr. Reese.
