Quotes 

• [Agent Patterson and the FBI team watches Jane Doe get hooked up to a lie detector] 

  Edgar Reade : What are they hooking her up to?

  Patterson : An MRI-based coronary lie detector. It monitors even the smallest contractions in the veins, heart, and brain. It's 100% accurate, and it makes a polygraph look like a mood ring.

  Tasha Zapata : Then why do we use a polygraph?

  Patterson : Because... we're not allowed to inject our subjects with substantial doses of radioactive material.

  FBI Director Pellington : It's not exactly legal.

• [Agent Nas tells the FBI team that no plan is certain to work for Jane Doe] 

  Nas Kamal : What do you want me to say? That all of this is completely devoid of risk? We're sending her undercover to possibly the most dangerous organization in the world. Can things go wrong? Absolutely.

  Patterson : I feel like you don't give a lot of pep talks.

  Nas Kamal : What do you think, Jane?

  Jane Doe : Who's driving?

• [Jane Doe ditches the transmitter Agent Nas plants on her] 

  Tasha Zapata : We should have tailed her.

  Nas Kamal : They would have made us, made her. Don't worry, she's equipped with one of the best trackers we have. Sound, GPS. Battery lasts...

  Patterson : She just ditched it.

  Nas Kamal : She what?

  Patterson : Well, either that, or she's currently laying down in the middle of the Pulaski Bridge.

  Edgar Reade : I'm gonna say she ditched it.

• [the FBI agents ask Assistant FBI Director Weller what he believes in] 

  Kurt Weller : I'm not gonna make any of you do anything that you don't believe in.

  Patterson : So, you believe in it? You believe in her?

  Kurt Weller : I believe this Sandstorm group that Jane was a part of needs to be stopped.

  Edgar Reade : Was? How can you be so sure?

  Kurt Weller : I can't be. Not 100%. No matter what that machine says. But I am sure that Jane didn't do this alone. I want to get the people that did this to us. Did this to Mayfair. If that means that I have to swallow my feelings about Jane for a while... so be it.

  Edgar Reade : I'm in. For Mayfair.

  Patterson : For Mayfair.

  Tasha Zapata : For Mayfair.

• [Agent Patterson tells Agent Nas that they need her help with the encrypted fragments] 

  Patterson : A lot of the ORION files are still encrypted.

  Tasha Zapata : Like this one. Pixel fragments. It's like trying to fit together a million jigsaw pieces that are all the same shape.

  Patterson : I've been trying to write a program that'll sort, analyze, and reassemble everything, pixel by pixel, but it... Whatever. It's a little involved. Our binary system here is having some problems with the raw data.

  Nas Kamal : So...

  Patterson : So... I was kind of sort of hoping that you could give us access to the NSA's quantum computer farm.

  Nas Kamal : Our quantum server farm doesn't technically exist.

  Patterson : [Patterson chuckles]  Well, heh, right. But, technically, neither do you.

• [Agent Weller orders Agent Patterson to redesign the transmitter on Jane Doe] 

  Kurt Weller : All right, they're taking Jane in deep. If she's caught with a transmitter, they'll kill her.

  Patterson : It's not that easy... this kind of transmitter isn't designed to be shut down remotely.

  Kurt Weller : All right, fine! So redesign it.

  Patterson : It's... that doesn't even make any sense, you can't...

  Kurt Weller : Patterson, just find a way around it!

  Patterson : Okay, finding, finding.
