Quotes 

• Roman : "Edmond smiled when he beheld himself. It was impossible that his best friend - if indeed he had any friends left - could recognize him. For he could not recognize himself."

  Jane Doe : Roman.

  Roman : It's "The Count of Monte Cristo". You read it, sis? It's about a man who's wrongfully imprisoned who escapes and gets revenge on those responsible.

  Kurt Weller : You weren't wrongfully imprisoned, Roman. You deserve to be locked up.

  Roman : Hello, Kurt.

  Jane Doe : You did this to me? These new tattoos? Why?

  Roman : Penance. You owe me, sis, for what you've done. These new tattoos are how you'll pay your way. But first, we need to get this price off your head.

• Roman : I tracked down the fixer holding your bounty in escrow and arranged a meet.

  Jane Doe : Wait, what?

  Roman : Oh, we crossed paths on another matter and I managed to gain his trust. Now, the red syringe contains a chemical called Succinylycholine. It'll reduce your heartbeat to an undetectable crawl.

  Kurt Weller : You gotta be kidding me. Do you think that we're really gonna go along with this, Roman?

  Roman : Weller will then deliver your "dead" body to said fixer to collect the bounty and remove the hit. Oh, the green syringe contains the antidote.

  Kurt Weller : And how do you propose I get your sister back after I hand her over? You don't think the guy's gonna want to take her body with him?

  Roman : I think I'll leave you two to iron out the details. All releveant information is in the envelope.

• Jane Doe : Why take Reade, Zapata, and Patterson?

  Roman : To bring you back. What, you thought you could just hide forever? Start some fresh, new life? No. No, we all have our prisons. These tattoos are yours.

  Jane Doe : And what about our friends? How do we get them back?

  Roman : You don't. I sold them to the highest bidder. They're gone, but this isn't about them. This is about you.

  Jane Doe : Roman!

  Roman : Let the games begin. Good luck, Jane Doe.

  Roman : Weller.

  [holding a gun as Weller advances on him] 

  Roman : Easy. Easy. Easy.

  Kurt Weller : What are you doing here?

  Roman : I need a favor. Some help with the tattoos.

  Kurt Weller : What are you, insane?

  Roman : Maybe. But you are gonna help me.

  Kurt Weller : If I don't?

  Roman : I'll tell Jane what happened in Berlin.

  Kurt Weller : [pause]  What do you need?
