  Michael Vaughn : I'm trying to live a normal life... which was always hard, given what I do. But it's gotten harder since I met your daughter. It's not that knowing her hasn't made my life better. It has. But it's also made it that much worse... I think I've said enough.

  Irina Derevko : The problem, Mr. Vaughn... Is that to the one person who matters... You haven't said anything at all.

• Irina : How do you say thank you to the woman who killed your father?

  Vaughn : You don't.

  Doctor Nicholas : I know you're worried, but we ran every available diagnostic test for viral infections. Everything that could be related to your exposure to the fluid inside the Rambaldi device. They all came back negative.
