"FAR TOO BUSY MAKING THE WORLD A SAFER PLACE TO LIVE." "OH, PLEASE." "BESIDES..." "SHE WASN'T MY TYPE." "FREAKS OF THE WORLD, MY NAME IS KILOHERTZ AND I'M HERE TO" "SPEAK TO YOU, FOR YOU AND ABOUT YOU." "I'VE HAD IT UP TO HERE WITH THE WAY WE'RE TREATED." "SO CONSIDER THIS FAIR WARNING, WE HAVE THE POWER AND WE'RE" "NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE." "ADAM, WHATEVER THAT WAS, WE JUST LOST POWER." "AND THE COMPUTERS ARE DOWN." "YEAH, I'M OFFLINE HERE, TOO." "HOLD ON." "I'LL TRY TO REBOOT." "IT'S GOING TO TAKE ME A FEW MINUTES TO LINK BACK UP." "YEAH, WELL, IN A FEW MINUTES, WE'RE GOING TO BE A SMEAR ON THE LANDSCAPE." "WE WERE PULLING INTO THE GARAGE WHEN THAT POWER SURGE HIT." "WHAT'S GOING ON, ADAM?" "JESSE AND SHALIMAR ARE UP IN THE DOUBLE HELIX." "THEY'VE LOST POWER AND I CAN'T REBOOT THEM FROM HERE." "IT WON'T REBOOT." "DON'T HAVE ENOUGH JUICE." "DAMN." "OKAY, STAND BACK." "STAND BACK." "OKAY, TRY IT NOW." "SHALIMAR, JESSE, YOU THERE?" "JUST GOT THE MANUAL OVERRIDE UNLOCKED." "WE'RE STILL DIVING." "OKAY, I GOT IT, GOT IT." "WE'RE LEVELING OFF." "MAYBE WE WON'T CUT IT SO CLOSE NEXT TIME, HUH?" "TOO MUCH OF AN ADRENALINE RUSH, EVEN FOR ME." "YEAH, ROGER THAT." "WELL, YOU JUST SAVED THEIR LIVES." "WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?" "THAT WAS ABOUT A NEW MUTANT THAT WE'VE GOT TO FIND BEFORE" "THE GSA DOES, FOR HIS SAKE AND OURS." "IS IT JUST ME OR IS THIS KILOHERTZ GUY TOO MUCH OR WHAT?" "A DOZEN COUNTS OF ELECTRONIC VANDALISM IN A WEEK AND" "COUNTING, A MILLION E-MAILS REROUTED TO NEVER BE SEEN AGAIN..." "THE GUY'S A RIOT." "I KNOW WE BELIEVE EVERYTHING WE'RE TOLD..." "MUTE." "YOU SEEN THE MESSAGE PORTS?" "LOOKS LIKE EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD'S BENDING OVER BACKWARDS" "TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW HE DOES IT." "YEAH, WELL, EVERY NEW MUTANT KNOWS THE TRUTH." "IT'S A THREAT TO EVERYTHING WE'RE DOING." "WELL, YOU DON'T HAVE TO CONVINCE ME." "HE ALMOST GOT ME AND JESSE KILLED." "AND HE'S CAUSING TROUBLE FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE NOTHING" "TO DO WITH NEW MUTANTS TOO." "A HIGH SCHOOL FRESHMAN WAS BEATEN INTO A COMA BY THREE" "STUDENTS WHO DECIDED HE WAS A FREAK." "HOSPITALS HAVE LOST POWER DURING HIS LAST RAMPAGE." "YEAH, WELL, LUCKY THE EMERGENCY GENERATORS KICKED IN." "YOU KNOW, AND THE TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS HE'S CAUSED BY EATING" "THE POWER GRID, THAT'S NOT WON HIM MANY FRIENDS." "PART OF ME THINKS THAT HIS RANTS ARE A CRY FOR HELP." "THAT'S NOT HELPING THE PEOPLE THAT HE'S HURT." "YEAH, AND SOONER OR LATER, PEOPLE ARE GOING TO REALIZE" "WHAT HE REALLY MEANS BY "FREAK"." "IT'S NEW MUTANTS WHO'LL TAKE THE HEAT FOR THAT." "I ASSUME YOU'VE HEARD ABOUT THIS KILOHERTZ," "MR. RENFIELD, AND HIS INVASION OF THIS FACILITY?" "IT'S ALL ANYONE AT THE ACADEMY'S TALKING ABOUT, MR. ECKHART." "ALLOWING HIM TO CONTINUE TO OPERATE COULD BE A DISASTER FOR THE GSA." "THE MINUTE THE GENERAL PUBLIC GETS AN IDEA OF THESE" "ANOMALIES OUT THERE, OUR WORK GETS HARDER" " AND UGLIER."

"YES, I'VE COME TO BELIEVE THAT A MAN OF YOUR PECULIAR" "TALENTS COULD BE A BOON TO US ON THIS MANHUNT." "I'M HONOURED, SIR." "WE'VE TRACKED THE SIGNAL TO SEVERAL POSSIBLE SOURCES AROUND" "THE COUNTRY AND WE'VE DEPLOYED AGENT TEAMS TO INVESTIGATE." "THESE ARE YOUR FCC CREDENTIALS." "SEE WHAT YOU CAN UNCOVER AT WXTV." "THANK YOU, SIR." "I WON'T LET YOU DOWN." "PRETTY SCARY-LOOKING, IF YOU ASK ME." "AH, HE'S JUST A NEW MUTANT TRYING TO GET A HANDLE ON HIS NEW ABILITIES." "HE'S SCARED." "YOU CAN BE THAT SYMPATHETIC EVEN AFTER HE ALMOST KILLED YOU AND SHALIMAR?" "IT WAS AN ACCIDENT." "YEAH, WELL THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU WOULDN'T KICK THE CRAP OUT" "OF HIM IF GIVEN HALF THE CHANCE." "YEAH." "SYMPATHY'S ONE THING BUT THIS GUY'S DEFINITELY ASKING FOR" "SERIOUS WHOOP-ASS." "OH, HEY, TOUGH GUY." "ARE YOU READY?" "YEAH, WHENEVER YOU ARE." "WELL, WE'VE GOT ABOUT A HALF DOZEN DIFFERENT FRAMES TO WORK WITH, RIGHT?" "SO WE'RE GOING TO TAKE THOSE IMAGES AND TRY TO WORK" "BACKWARDS TO SEE WHAT HE REALLY LOOKS LIKE." "IT'S KIND OF LIKE EDUCATED GUESSWORK." "YOU KNOW, IN A WEIRD SORT OF WAY, WHAT YOU'RE DOING WITH THE" "COMPUTER IS LIKE WHAT I DO WITH MY TELEPATHY." "WELL, YOU'VE GOT A BUNCH OF IMAGES AND YOU'VE GOT TO FIGURE" "OUT HOW THEY FIT TOGETHER AND WHAT THEY MEAN." "YOU WANT TO TAKE A WHACK AT IT?" "I'VE NEVER GOT A HANDLE ON ALL THAT CYBER STUFF." "COMPUTERS KIND OF GIVE ME THE CREEPS." "COME ON, I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU NEVER DID ANY PLAYING AROUND" "NOT EVERYBODY WAS BORN WITH A SILVER SPOON IN THEIR MOUTH, JESS." "NO, IT'S NOT THAT." "MY PARENTS WERE REAL ORGANIC TYPES" " MACROBIOTIC FOOD," "SOLAR POWER, THE WHOLE DEAL." "I GREW UP KIND OF UNCOMFORTABLE AROUND ANYTHING MECHANICAL." "WELL, YOU SEEM TO DO ALL RIGHT IN THE LAB WITH ADAM." "WELL, THAT'S DIFFERENT." "YOU KNOW, I GUESS IT'S GOT TO DO WITH THE WHOLE ORGANIC" "THING, DEALING WITH THE HUMAN CONDITION." "HOW ARE WE DOING UP THERE?" "GOOD." "WE UPLOADED ALL THE IMAGES WE COULD FROM KILOHERTZ'S TV" "APPEARANCES, WE PUT THEM THROUGH THE DIGITAL PROCESSOR," "BROKE THEM DOWN, PUT THEM TOGETHER," "AND WE'LL SEE WHAT WE CAN GET." "GOOD." "WHAT'S THAT?" "WELL, IT'S JUST AN IDEA AT THIS POINT, BUT I'M HOPING IT'LL" "BE A DEVICE THAT WE CAN USE AS A WEAPON AGAINST HIM." "SO LIGHT A FIRE UNDER IT." "NO TELLING WHEN THIS GUY MIGHT PLAN TO STRIKE AGAIN." "RIGHT." "I CAN ASSURE YOU, MR. RENFIELD," "WE HAD ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY OF THE SIGNAL INTERRUPTIONS." "I'LL STILL NEED FULL ACCESS TO STATION RECORDS." "WE KNOW FOR A FACT THAT THIS KILOHERTZ USED A LOCAL STATION" "TO HACK INTO THE NETWORK GRID."

"YOU WANT TO INVESTIGATE US?" "DO IT BY THE BOOK." "NOW, I HOPED WE COULD AVOID INITIATE A LICENSE REVOCATION." "YOU'RE PUTTING US OUT OF BUSINESS?" "WELL, IF THAT'S WHAT IT TAKES." "I WANT YOUR SUPERIOR'S NAME AND NUMBER NOW." "SORRY." "I GOT IT." "MR. GOFFMAN?" "ARE YOU IN THERE?" "MR. GOFFMAN?" ""EXCUSE ME" MEAN ANYTHING TO YOU?" "THIS DOESN'T HAVE THE NUMBER ON IT." "MR. GOFFMAN, I GOT THE TAPES YOU ASKED FOR." "WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT FCC GUY?" "FCC?" "THE JERK TRIED TO STRONG-ARM ME." "THOUGHT WE HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THIS KILOHERTZ THING." "FCC." "THAT IS SO COOL." "WELL, THEN WE CROSS-REFERENCE THESE POTENTIALS WITH ADAM'S DATABASE." "SO WE'LL KNOW WHICH NEW MUTANT WE'RE DEALING WITH." "A-HA." "SURE YOU DON'T WANT TO GIVE IT A SHOT?" "I GUARANTEE ONCE YOU GET THE HANG OF IT, YOU'LL BE HOOKED." "OKAY." "HA HA." "OKAY." "PUT YOUR HANDS ON GENTLY." "YEAH, ONE HAND THERE." "WAIT, IT'S GOING TOO FAST." "NOT FOR THE COMPUTER." "HEY, THAT FIRST ONE'S KIND OF CUTE." "AH, WELL, THE CUTE ONE IT IS." "HEY." "BARRY STERLING." "WORKS AT CHANNEL THIRTEEN." "PRODUCTION ASSISTANT."

"I'VE GOT NOTHING TO SAY TO THE FCC." "FCC?" "WELL, SOMETHING TELLS ME WE FOUND OUR BOY." "NOW WE'VE JUST GOT TO FIND HIM AGAIN." "FIGURE OUT A WAY TO KEEP HIM." "HE GAVE US THE SLIP, ADAM." "THE WEIRD THING WAS HE THOUGHT WE WERE FCC." "YEAH, BUT BEFORE WE GOT TO TALK TO HIM, HE TOOK OFF." "ALL THAT WAS LEFT OF HIM WAS A GLOW ON THE SATELLITE DISH." "WELL, NOW WE KNOW HOW HE GETS AROUND." "IT WAS ACTUALLY PRETTY INCREDIBLE." "YEAH, BUT IT WAS SLOPPY." "YOU KNOW, HE LEFT A LOT OF RESIDUAL ENERGY JUST BUZZING ON THE DISH." "SEEMS LIKE HE DOESN'T HAVE A LOT OF CONTROL OVER HIS ABILITIES." "WELL, THAT WOULD ACCOUNT FOR ALL THE COLLATERAL DAMAGE THAT" "HIS VANDALISM'S CAUSING, YOU KNOW, HOW HE INVADES A NETWORK" "GRID AND ACCIDENTALLY TAKES OUT A HOSPITAL'S POWER." "BUT HIS THINKING THAT YOU'RE BOTH MEMBERS OF THE FCC," "I THINK HE'S RUN INTO SOMEBODY FROM THE GSA" "OPERATING UNDER FALSE CREDENTIALS." "SO ECKHART'S AFTER HIM TOO." "YEAH, AND HE GOT THERE FIRST." "YEAH." "I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW GRATEFUL I AM FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY, SIR." "DON'T COME ANY CLOSER." "KEEP YOUR DISTANCE UNTIL I AM SEALED." "IF ALL YOU'VE GOT TO SHARE WITH ME IS GRATITUDE," "MR. RENFIELD, I'M BUSY." "NO, SIR." "I JUST WANTED TO REPORT MY DATA RETRIEVAL AT WXTV." "WELL, GO AHEAD." "I'M NOT SURE I UNDERSTAND, SIR." "REPORT." "I DID, SIR." "THAT WAS IT." "MR. RENFIELD, I UNDERSTAND THEY TEACH A VERY SPECIFIC" "KEEP-YOUR-SUPERIORS- IN-THE-LOOP KIND OF PROCEDURE AT THE ACADEMY."

"THE FIREWALL WON'T STOP HIM." "IT'LL ONLY KEEP THINGS FROM FALLING COMPLETELY APART." "ANY DOUBT IN YOUR MIND MAYBE HE'S NOT KILOHERTZ?" "WELL, IF THAT'S THE CASE, WE'RE NOT THE ONLY ONES WHO GOT IT WRONG." "COME ON." "LET'S TRY TO SHOW A LITTLE RESTRAINT." "WE CAN DO THIS WITHOUT HURTING HIM." "THERE HE IS."

"DID YOU SEE THAT, MR. RENFIELD?" "YES, SIR." "I WANT THIS MANIAC IN CUSTODY OR YOUR CAREER IS OVER BEFORE IT'S BEGUN." "JESSE, I CAN'T FIND HIM ON THE GRID." "I NEED YOU TO GIVE ME A COMPLETE DAMAGE REPORT IMMEDIATELY." "WELL, AS FAR AS I CAN TELL, HE'S OUT OF THE SYSTEM," "BUT HE'S LEFT A LOT OF DAMAGE BEHIND." "THE NASDAQ AND THE DOW JONES ARE PLUMMETING." "WELL IF HE'S GONE, WHY IS EVERYTHING STILL GOING CRAZY?" "WELL, BECAUSE LIKE I SAID, THE MARKET IS NINETY PERCENT PERCEPTION." "AND RIGHT NOW, THE PERCEPTION IS THE BOTTOM'S FALLEN OUT AND" "THERE'S NOBODY THERE TO STOP THE PLUNGE." "AND IN THIS CASE, UNFORTUNATELY, THEY'RE RIGHT." "WHEN HE TORE THROUGH THE MARKET DATABASES," "HE TRASHED ALL OF THE STOPGAPS." "BUT I THOUGHT YOU GUYS BUILT A..." "WE DID, BUT I UNDERESTIMATED HIS POWER AND HE BREACHED THE FIREWALL." "SO JESSE, IT'S UP TO US NOW TO INITIATE SOME DAMAGE CONTROL." "I NEED YOU TO USE THE SANCTUARY SYSTEM TO TRY TO STABILIZE THE MARKETS." "TRY TO REBUILD THE STOPGAP FROM INSIDE."

"I WANTED TO DO THAT FOR A LONG TIME." "I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL." "THIS'LL KNOCK HIM OUT FOR ABOUT TWELVE HOURS SO WE CAN" "FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO WITH HIM." "WHY DON'T YOU TAKE HIM BACK INTO THE LAB" "AND KEEP HIM QUARANTINE, HUH?" "THANK YOU." "WELL, HIS DNA'S CELLULAR STRUCTURE'S COMPLETELY UNSTABLE." "IT'S CAUGHT IN A FLUX BETWEEN MATTER AND ENERGY." "TALK ABOUT UNSTABLE IN FLUX, YOU OUGHT TO SEE HIM THROUGH MY EYES." "THIS GUY IS AN EMOTIONAL TIME BOMB" "WITH NO SELF-CONTROL WHATSOEVER." "WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO WITH HIM?" "I HAVE NO IDEA." "WHAT SCARES ME IS WHEN HE REALIZES THE FULL EXTENT OF HIS POWERS," "THEN DECIDES TO WIELD THOSE POWERS WITH LETHAL INTENT." "WE CAN'T KEEP HIM SEDATED FOREVER, ADAM." "SHALIMAR'S RIGHT." "YEAH, WELL, LIKE YOU ALWAYS SAY, WE'RE NOT COPS." "THANK GOD FOR THAT." "I'D BE IN SERIOUS TROUBLE." "I WISH I HAD AN ANSWER." "WHAT ABOUT A SUBDERMAL GOVERNOR?" "WHAT?" "YOU WANT TO PLAY ECKHART'S GAME?" "COME ON, JESSE, YOU'VE HAD ONE." "DO YOU REALLY WANT TO PUT ANYONE ELSE THROUGH THAT?" "WE ALL KNOW IT'S A PROBLEM, BUT LIKE ADAM SAID," "WHAT HAPPENS WHEN BARRY DECIDES TO GET REALLY NASTY?" "YEAH, WHERE DID THIS GSA-IS-A-OKAY BUSINESS COME FROM, ANYWAY?" "PERSONALLY, I CAN'T SEE BARRY AND ECKHART HITTING IT OFF." "BUT STRANGER THINGS HAVE HAPPENED." "WELL, THAT'S ONE STRANGE THING I DON'T WANT TO BE AROUND FOR." "ALL RIGHT, LOOK, I KNOW HOW WE ALL FEEL ABOUT SUBDERMAL GOVERNORS," "BUT UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES," "I THINK WE'RE JUSTIFIED IN USING ONE" " AS A TEMPORARY SOLUTION." "HOW'D HE GET OUT?" "HIS ALTERED STATE MUST HAVE UNDERCUT THE SEDATIVE'S EFFECTIVENESS." "BARRY, YOU'VE GOT TO LISTEN." "LEAVING HERE WOULD BE A HUGE MISTAKE." "THINKING YOU WERE THE GOOD GUYS WAS MY BIG MISTAKE."

"YEAH." "THAT FCC GUY WAS RIGHT." "YEAH, BUT HE WASN'T FCC." "AND YOU KNOW WHAT?" "I'M THROUGH BEING YOUR LACKEY." "THE ONLY REASON I'M HERE IS TO USE YOUR SATELLITE DISH" "BECAUSE TONIGHT, I'M GOING INTERNATIONAL." "I'M CALLING THE AUTHORITIES." "WOO-WOO-WOO." "TAKE YOUR BEST SHOT." "THEY HAVEN'T CAUGHT ME YET." "BY THE TIME THEY GET HERE, I WILL BE LONG GONE." "NO, YOU WON'T." "WELL, IF IT ISN'T EVERYONE'S FAVOURITE SELL-OUT." "I WANT YOU TO COME BACK TO THE SANCTUARY WITH ME, BARRY." "WHY?" "SO YOU CAN LOCK ME UP AGAIN?" "NO, JUST WANT TO TALK, TRY TO WORK THINGS OUT." "THE HELL WITH THAT." "I'M GOING TO GO CHECK OUT THE POWER GRID." "BRENNAN, HERE HE COMES." "JESSE." "GOT HIM, BRENNAN." "DO YOU REALLY THINK YOU CAN HOLD ME?" "SHALIMAR?" "WHENEVER YOU'RE READY." "TRANSMITTING NOW." "I GOT HIM." "DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I THINK I AM?" "OH, SHUT UP." "IT WORKED, ADAM." "HE'S FROZEN ON THE SCREEN." "YEAH, CATCHING LIGHTNING IN A BOTTLE." "YEAH." "NOW, LET'S KEEP HIM THERE." "EVERYTHING SECURE?" "YEAH." "LOCK-DOWN STILL IN EFFECT." "GOOD." "BUT YOU DON'T KNOW WHO OR WHAT YOU'RE DEALING WITH OR ELSE" "YOU WOULDN'T HAVE BOTHERED WITH ALL THE EXTRA JUNK." "NOW, DON'T YOU WISH WE'D ALL GOTTEN ALONG?" "MAYBE THEN YOU WOULDN'T BE LOOKING AT YOUR WORST VIRUS" "NIGHTMARE COME TO LIFE." "YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME." "HE ACCESSED THE PASSWORD FILES WHEN HE WAS IN THE SYSTEM." "YOU GOT THAT RIGHT AND I'M HERE TO STAY." "AND FORGET ABOUT COUNTERMANDING THE SECURITY CODE BECAUSE" "I'VE LOCKED ACCESS, SO IT'S JUST US FOR AS LONG AS I LIKE." "ALL RIGHT, FORGET ABOUT THAT." "LET'S FIND A WAY TO BYPASS HIS CONTROL OF THE SYSTEM." "RIGHT." "HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR PROBLEM IS, PAL?" "YOU'VE GOT WAY TOO MUCH SPARE TIME ON YOUR HANDS." "THE ONLY PROBLEM I'VE GOT IS THE MISTAKE I MADE ABOUT YOU," "THINKING YOU WERE HEROES AS OPPOSED TO A BUNCH OF POSERS AND LOSERS." "I LOVED THIS PLACE FROM THE MINUTE I SAW IT." "SO I FIGURED IT'D BE FUN TO TAKE IT APART AND PUT IT BACK" "TOGETHER - VIRTUALLY SPEAKING, THAT IS." "BUT I'M NOT THE ONE WHO'S GOING TO RUN OUT OF OXYGEN NOW" "THAT I CUT OFF THE AIR INTAKE SYSTEM, NOW AM I?" "OOH, NO ONE TO HIT, HUH, HONEY?" "NO ONE TO ZAP, HUH, PAL?" "NO ONE TO PUSH AROUND." "AND YOU, YOU CAN GHOST OR GRANITE, DON'T MEAN A THING TO ME." "NOW, THE GSA, THE MINUTE I SHOW UP, THEY'LL TREAT ME LIKE A" "CONQUERING HERO." "YOU REALLY THINK THEY'LL LET YOU CONTINUE THIS RAMPAGE?" "WELL, I'D SOONER GO WHERE MY TALENTS ARE APPRECIATED." "NO, NO, NO, THEY'RE GOING TO TURN YOU INTO A WEAPON." "THEY'LL CRUSH YOU LIKE A BUG." "THE GUY I TALKED TO SAID THEY'D LOVE TO HAVE ME ON THEIR TEAM" " ESPECIALLY AFTER I'VE TAKEN YOU DOWN." "BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?" "YOU MIGHT HAVE A POINT." "SO INSTEAD OF JOINING GSA, I'LL JUST TAKE THEM OVER." "NOTHING LIKE STARTING FROM THE TOP, HUH?" "HAVEN'T YOU HEARD "RESISTANCE IS FUTILE"?" "I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING." "IT'S A WASTE OF TIME." "OVERLOADING THE MAINFRAME TO GET PAST MY FIREWALL?" "THAT'S ABSOLUTELY RIGHT." "BUT IT'S GOING TO TRAP YOU IN HERE PERMANENTLY." "YOU'RE BLUFFING." "TRY ME." "BRENNAN, HIT THE MAINFRAME WITH EVERYTHING YOU'VE GOT." "GOT TO GO, BUT I'LL BE BACK WITH MY NEW GSA BEST FRIENDS." "BRENNAN, HIT THE COMLINK SYSTEM NOW." "GOOD WORK, BRENNAN." "I'VE RECONFIGURED THE COMLINK SYSTEM SO HE'LL NEVER FIND HIS" "WAY BACK IN AGAIN." "CAN I ASSUME YOUR EXPERIENCE IN RETRAINING HAS HAD NO" "DETRIMENTAL EFFECTS ON YOU, MR. RENFIELD?" "NOT AT ALL, SIR." "I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT GOT INTO ME, MR. ECKHART." "THE ANSWER TO THAT IS FOUND IN YOUR GENETIC MISFORTUNE." "THE VERY GIFT THAT MAKES YOU SO SPECIAL LEAVES YOU" "VULNERABLE TO HUXTERS AND CHARLATANS WHO WANT NOTHING MORE" "THAN YOUR UTTER CORRUPTION." "I UNDERSTAND, SIR, AND I'VE RENEWED MY VOWS OF COMMITMENT" "TO CONSTANT VIGILANCE." "DOES THAT MEAN I CAN ASSUME YOU'RE READY TO GO BACK TO WORK?" "ABSOLUTELY." "I'M READY TO TAKE ON WHATEVER YOU HAVE TO OFFER, SIR." "SECURITY." "NOW THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT." "I'LL HANDLE THIS." "HEY, IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU." "I THOUGHT YOU GUYS WOULD BE GLAD TO SEE ME." "GLAD TO SEE YOU, BARRY?" "WE'RE THRILLED." "NICELY DONE, MR. RENFIELD." "SO KILOHERTZ TURNS OUT TO BE A COMPUTER GEEK LOSER" "WHO ATE A BULLET WHEN THE COPS..." "MUTE." "YOU GOT TO GIVE ECKHART CREDIT." "YEAH, REALLY." "WHEN HE LIES TO THE PRESS, HE DOESN'T SCREW AROUND." "WELL, WE LOST ONE TODAY, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN." "I'M NOT SO CERTAIN." "I MEAN, YOU KICKED HIS BUTT, ALBEIT IN THE NICK OF TIME." "YOU SAVED THE DAY, ADAM." "NO, I WAS THINKING ABOUT BARRY." "HE HAD SOME GOOD IDEAS." "WE LOST SOMEBODY WHO COULD'VE BEEN AN IMPORTANT ALLY," "EXCEPT HE GOT CARRIED AWAY BY HIS OWN SENSE OF POWER." "LET'S JUST HOPE HIS LOSS DOESN'T COME BACK TO HAUNT US."
