Quotes 

• Matthew Weitz : I know what you're doing.

  Nas Kamal : Telling the truth?

  Matthew Weitz : Taking the heat off of everyone else by jumping in the fire yourself.

  Nas Kamal : Look, you're smarter than this, Matthew. You know that if you drag this team in front of a Congressional subcommittee, you'll have a fight on your hands.

  Matthew Weitz : Yeah, a fight I can win.

  Nas Kamal : A fight you might win. But if Weller brings Shepherd in tomorrow, he'll be the hero and you'll look like a fool. What I'm offering you is a sure thing, a guaranteed win. I can't name a single AUSA that has brought a top NSA operative in front of Congress. It would be unprecedented. Or you can continue this witch hunt against Weller and his team, and I can promise you that I will use all my substantial resources to find every last piece of dirt on Matthew Weitz and pursue a hearing of my own. So, Mr. Weitz, your move.

• 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.

• 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.
