"It's only a two dollar an hour raise at anelectronics store, and it doesn't even give memy own parking space." "Well, does your lack of interestmean that you're actually considering leaving the buy morefor a real profession?" "Real profession?" "Sorry." "I'm goingto need clarification on that." "He went to stanford, for god's sakes, morgan." "Right, and was unceremoniouslyexpelled sophomore year-- sorry to bring that up, champ-- butI think we need to be realistic about our goals here."

"Morgan:" "Listen to me-- it isway to scary out there." "Chuck can't leavethe buy more." "We're stillfinding ourselves."

"Morgan:" "You don't understand." "He is a fragilelittle gelding." "You know, still tryingto find his legs." "The real world will crush him." "Do you knowwhat a gelding is?" "it's the... that weird creaturefrom the dark crystal." "Smells like gelding." "That-that guy." "He'll be fine." "La ciudad probablywon't even be there." "And if he is, is it worth the risk?" "All right, I've heard enough." "Put him in the field." "We don't know what he's capable of until he's been tested." "What he needs issomething to challenge him." "To test hislimitations." "A brush withhis own mortality." "You know what I'm thinking?" "I have no ideawhat you're thinking." "As far as I'm concerned, dude, you're way off the reservation." "Class five whitewater rapids." "Just the two ofus this weekend." "Near-deathexperience." "Awesome!" "That sounds great, but my wet suit'sat the dry cleaners." "That is a terrible idea." "That's way too dangerous."

"Good night, team bartowski." "that's-that's great work, guys." "You see what you're doing here?" "That's awesome." "Congratulations, chuck." "You just got your firstmission-- tomorrow night."

"Oh, that's very nice... how did you know my size?" "Nsa-- they have records of your rental information from prom night." "I checked the suit in your closet." "Okay, this is my first foray into major undercover spy work, so you could ease up on the sarcasm." "That would be great." "And how am I supposed to recognize la ciudad?" "Is there a picture or something?" "If there was a photograph, why would we need you?" "What did we just talk about?" "I'm sorry." "We're hoping something in the event triggers a flash." "See, that's all you had to say." "Now, uh, hand-to-hand combat-- in all seriousness, if it comes down to me and la ciudad in some fisticuffs or something, is there, like, a 20-minute tutorial you can take me through?" "Don't worry." "You're going to be fine." "Nothing's going to happen to you." "Assuming you know how to tango." "Seriously?" "Oh, I don't joke about your life." "Right." "Chuck, your girlfriend's here." "One minute, I have computers to fix." "Anna:" "Don't worry about it." "We got it." "There's only a few left." "What?" "Are you sure?"

" Easy to remember and not far off from..." " graduated with honors from stanford." "Runs a hugely successful software company." "Semi-retired and is considering entering america's cup." "Have you donethis before?" "Let's just say, uh, mr." "Carmichael and I sharea small kinship." "How's that?" "When I first entered stanford, it's kind of where I envisionedmyself being by now, except for the sailing part." "I don't really knowwhere that came from." "But he's where most of my classalready is." "So, what happened?" "My life took a little detoursophomore year when our old friendbryce larkin discovered stolen testsunder my bed, and was kind enoughto alert administration." "Did you steal the tests?" "I thought it was kind of impliedthat I'm a decent person." "Well, we all make mistakes." "And I made plenty." "That just wasn't one of them." "But, hey, then bryce sent mea whole database of government secretsthat are now locked in my brain, keeping me in a constant stateof fear, danger and anxiety, so I'd say we're even." "Don't worryabout tonight." "No reason tobe nervous." "I am not going toleave your side." "Me nervous?" "Come on.Never." "Your hand isa little moist." "It does thatwhen I'm freaking out." "Hey, sis." "Hey, sis, um... do you know how to tango?" "No, why?" "Oh, no reason." "I just, I have a date tonight." "I thought it might come up." "You're tangoing on a date?" "Well, that's definitelynew territory." "It's good to see you reachingoutside of your comfort zone." "Well, consideringmy comfort zone extends to the endof that couch, new territorywas bound to come up." "Did someone say tango?" "No, thank you, captain awesome, I'll look it up online." "Would you please put on something, a robe or something?" "Did a semester abroadin buenos aires." "Spent many a nighttangoing my way into señoritas' pantalones." "And... go."

"Inside the watchis a tracking system." "That way you can'trun away from me." "And if you flash on anyone, tell me immediatelyand then stay out of the way." "Absolutely, yeah." "I, uh, I always runfrom a fight." "This isn't a joke, chuck." "No one who's ever seen youhas lived to tell about it." "Is he being serious?" "Seriously?" "What are my chancesof getting into trouble?" "Toughen up, you'll be fine... assuming you know how to tango." "I did somepreparation, okay?" "I wouldn't callmyself an expert... why would he need to know howto tango?" "Is that code?" "No, not-- no, he told me thatI needed to know how to tango..." " Spy humor, I like that."

"Now... before you answermy next question," "I want you to think long andhard about my options here." "There's the old favorite-- yank out a tooth." "Too noisy." "cut off a toe." "That's too messy." "Far too messy." "Or we can chuck you offthe balcony... chuck." "Probably landface first." "Teeth go through theback of your head." "not a good way to go." "So... here's my question:" "Who do you work for?" "No one." "No, no, stop, stop!" "I fix computersfor a living!" "I swear to god!" "I snuck into the partyunder a fake name to impress a girl!" "Please, please, down... put chair down!" "Good-bye, chuck." "No, no, no, it's a setup!" "What is?" "The painting?" "The painting." "The painting, I think." "I think the painting mightbe a fake or something." "Why?" "If you put me downI'll tell you." "I saw a photoof the painting in the L.A.Times, okay?" "But it hada different frame." "So I'm assuming somebody maybe swapped it out, I don't know." "But if I were you, I would not buy that painting." "A fake painting." "And you had no intentionof bidding on it?" "Me?" "Bid on..." "No, not unless they wereselling it for 25 bucks." "I mean, that's about what I haveing my decorating budget." "Okay, tell me howto fix a computer, chuck." "my first inclination isthat your bus speed is not up to snuff with your video card." "I'm assuming we're talking about a pc here, right?" "Is your memorydedicated?" "That's enough, mr.Bartowski." "I believe you." "the problem is since you've seen me, now I have to kill you." "Have... have to, have to?" "No, no, no, I disagree, I disagree... vehemently, vehemently." "No, no, no, I won't sayanything, I swear to god." "You don't know the things I know about people." "Don't worry, it'll be fast." "Good-bye, mr.Bartowski." "I enjoyed our tango." "I didn't likeit that much." " Really?" " He was kind of silly." "Oh, I kind of liked him." "Hi." "They're on to us." "The sec knows everything." "Shelly, they knowabout the caymans." "I surrender!" "I surrender!" "Get down, chuck." "Chuck:" "Sarah!" "Let's do this." "oh, my god!" "it's okay, chuck." " Are you okay?" " Okay?" "Okay?" "Two more seconds andI'd have been dead." "They were going tothrow me off the balcony." "Did you tell themyou work for us?" "Of course not." "Where the hellwere you guys?" "You're still alive." "I'd consider myself lucky." "We have to get youout of the country." "First we take him out." "Hey." "How was the big date?" "It was good, great, fine." "I'm going to go to bed." " I love you." " What?" "No, no, no, no." "Is that all I get?" "Come on, sit down." "I want to know, you know, do you like this girl?" "It'S... you know, it's complicated." "Well, explain it to me slowly, I'll catch up." "She's a very beautiful girl." "Good." "Go on." "And she's very agile." "I'm not sure how thatapplies, but continue." "And I think she's tooexhausting for me." "Well, what happened?" "Did you guys tango?" "Oh, yeah, yeah." "We tangoed." "In fact, we tangoedquite a bit, but awesome taught methe woman's pa of the tango, so it was a little difficult, as one might expect." "Awesome:" "What's up, bro?" " Did you do thefamous dip?" " Yeah." "I was on thereceiving end of that dip." "You did tango witha woman, right?" "And on that note... no, no, no, no, no." "You're notgetting off that easy." "Why won't you talk to me?" "It's... it's complicated, okay?" "Just let it go." "Fine." "You don't wantto talk to me," "I suggest you findsomeone to talk to like maybe your idiot friend." "He's called about 75 times." "He locked himselfin a storage cage." "Whatever that means." "Oh, god!" "It's you." "Dude, dude, you have no idea." "Okay, okay, okay." "Settle down, settle down, settle down." "Settle downit's all good." "It's all good." "What happened?" "Oh, what happened?" "Tang showed up, and he dropped all these off." "I guess he was stashingthem, you know?" "So... all right, let's do this." "What are you talking..." "Morgan, you don't knowhow to fix a computer." "Moral support, man." "Never... never leaveyour wingman, okay?" "Something your team couldlearn a little something about." "Look, it's okay, man." "Go get some sleep, okay?" "Are you sure?" "'Cause you say the word and we go down together." "No." "I appreciate that, but I think it'll be nice to do somethingI'm actually good at, so I'll see you." "Fantastic." "I'll see you later.Good night." "Good night." "You finished, bartowski?" "Mission accomplished." "Two days was meantas an incentive." "I didn't think you'd really do it." "I'm impressed." "And I'm not a maneasily impressed." "Why, I think you should know thatI only fixed the last few--my team did most of the work." "They deserve the credit." "And you're only as goodas your team, so... first rule of management:" "Always take credit." "Hope we can sell all this crap." "Sir, there's beena major infraction-- drinkingalcoholic beverages on the property." "Nothing wrong with a man wetting his whistleevery once in a while." "Keep it out of thestore, bartowski." "Yeah.Yeah. Absolutely, sir." "You get extra points for style." "Looking sharp." "You look like a waiter." "kiss-ass." "Was I scared?" "Yeah." "Yeah, I was scared." "But then this survivalinstinct kicked in." "Something I didn'teven know I possessed." "A desire to live." "Good news is, I may be ableto retire off this, all right?" "I talked to big mike." "I told him he'd be hearingfrom my attorney." "That cage isa major fire hazard." "Chuck." "Good work last night." "Okay, you know what?" "I'm, I'm workingon an all-nighter here, big guy." "And I realize that you areprobably armed." "And so I'm gonna ask youvery nicely, would you please easeup on the sarcasm." "I wasn't being facetious." "You helped us find la ciudad." "But she got away." "Yeah, we got a photofrom hotel security." "We got a blood samplefrom a broken window." "Our intel tell usshe's heading down to central america." "We have peoplewaiting there." "You're lookin' sharp." "Yeah, thanks." "That was facetious." "Idiot." "I fixed this one personally." "So it should begood as new." "And sorry about the delay." "Chuck, hiding from work again?" "I, uh, I-I thinkI dropped something." "Go away, harry!" "Oh, you wish I would." "I'm not going anywhere, chuck." "When you goto sleep at night, all you're gonna seeis tang in your face."
