Quotes 

• Patterson : A while back, I decoded a string of numbers embedded in Jane's hourglass tattoo. They match a corporate ID for a 501-C non-profit called Life Prospect, Inc.

  Kurt Weller : Is that some kind of charity foundation?

  Patterson : Yeah, but they barely exist. The address and phone number associated with it are defunct, and money funneled into the foundation is obscured by layers upon layers of shell companies. There was nothing to investigate until now. This is sixteen year old Amber Wallace, found dead at her foster home this morning.

  Tasha Zapata : What does she have to do with the non-profit?

  Patterson : Life Prospect bankrolls the private foster home she lived in.

  Jane Doe : Wait. So you think my tattoo is connected to her death?

  Patterson : Sandstorm put this non-profit on your body and now a young girl is dead. It's certainly worth looking into.

• Matthew Weitz : Oh, there's the smiling faces I came to see. It's very lovely to see you again.

  Tasha Zapata : Wish we could say the same.

  Matthew Weitz : I'm gonna set up in the conference room. Get ready for depositions in ten. Where, um, is our tattooed friend? I'm looking forward to speaking with her today.

  Tasha Zapata : Jane is heading out on a case, and so are we.

  Matthew Weitz : Oh, that... you guys have a case. That's so crazy. I also have a case. Everybody has to speak with me today or face immediate suspension. It's your call.

  Kurt Weller : We'll answer any questions that you have regarding the raid on the Sandstorm compound, but it's gonna have to wait until we get back. I can't have you interfering with us doing our job.

  Matthew Weitz : That's fine. I'll interview Special Agent Patterson first. You don't normally take the lab rat in the field, do you?

  Kurt Weller : I'll send her down.

• Jane Doe : I want to bring Roman in on this missing kids case.

  Kurt Weller : Jane, he's not an FBI agent.

  Jane Doe : Well, technically, I'm not, either.

  Kurt Weller : I cleared Roman to assist us with Sandstorm cases, not tattoo cases.

  Jane Doe : He feels trapped. He's out of his cell, but he's still isolated. This could give him purpose.

  Kurt Weller : Or it could overwhelm him. He needs to become acclimated to his new situation.

  Jane Doe : I think he's ready.

  Kurt Weller : Even if he is, Weitz is out for blood. Now, today is not a good day to get Roman to assist us with this case.

  Jane Doe : Roman was raised at an orphanage. He could have useful insights.

  Nas Kamal : I think Jane is right. Roman had an underlying loyalty for Shepherd. It he feels rudderless now, we could risk a backslide.

  Jane Doe : Look, this is a chance for us to show the good that we do, that his loyalty is in the right place with us.

  Kurt Weller : All right. When Roman finishes his session with Dr. Sun, we can bring him in, but we have to keep him out of Weitz's crosshairs.

• Matthew Weitz : How would you describe your relationship with Jane Doe?

  Kurt Weller : Professional.

  Matthew Weitz : Exclusively?

  Kurt Weller : Uh... we go out for beers after work sometimes.

  Matthew Weitz : So, professional and personal. Got it. How would you describe your relationship with Jane Doe's mother?

  Kurt Weller : She's the leader of the terrorist organization we're trying to stop. She's my enemy.

  Matthew Weitz : Enemy. That's not the word I would use for someone who paid for my schooling. Wouldn't "benefactor" be more apt?

  Kurt Weller : I didn't know about that, but she's still my enemy.

  Matthew Weitz : She took out as many FBI agents as she could during that compound raid. She killed her friend Sean Clark right in front of you. Both times, you got to walk away. Seems like she's still your benefactor to me, so what's in it for her?

  Kurt Weller : This is ridiculous. You really think that I'm working for Sandstorm?

  Matthew Weitz : On the surface, it seems absurd, but you look at the evidence and it starts to pile up pretty good.

  Kurt Weller : Really?

  Matthew Weitz : Shepherd paid for your schooling. She spared your life. Your not-so-professional relationship with her daughter, Jane Doe.

  Kurt Weller : You're trying to make connections that aren't there, serving your own personal interests.

  Matthew Weitz : I don't need a whole fire. I just need a little bit of smoke to bring this in front of Congress, and what I've got here is a hell of a lot of smoke, Assistant Director Weller.
