"He loathes you with every fiber of his being." " You went behind my back!" " I didn't want to upset you." " I know how emotional you've been." " Don't you dare condescend to me!" "You've deliberately hidden the truth." "Have you ever stopped to consider that perhaps the future no longer lies with Roman?"

" I'm sorry, I can't do that." " Oh, for God's sake, Conway." "Why not?" " I'm under strict orders." " You disappoint me." "Perhaps you'll reconsider in light of our... many long years of friendship." "What are you doing here?" "!" "You were under orders." "Why'd you let her in?" "It's OK, it's OK." "I just had a very informative discussion with Pryce." "I know exactly what you're up to." "I just can't, for the life of me," " figure out why." " I have no intention of living out my life as a literal parasite." "Pathetic, burrowing, semi-human tick." " You have no heart." " It's hereditary."

"When I hired you, or should I say spirited you out of Basra, and created a new identity for you, I knew you were a bulldog." "But I expected you to be my bulldog." "I'm going to venture a guess that you're talking out of school." "I know not what this talk is of school and dogs." " You're an estimable scientist, Doctor." " Spasibo." "Brilliant." "Yes, but also greedy, duplicitous and cunning." "Did you really think it would escape my attention that you visited Olivia today?" "I knew where you were going before she did." "I'm watching you, Galina." "Day... and night." "[buttons beeping]" "If I were to turn these over to Interpol, there would be a great deal of interest in the fact that the fiction known as..."

"I don't understand." "Were you planning on hiding this baby forever?" "I didn't have a plan." "I still don't." "There's still so much you don't know." "It's OK." "There's time."
