Quotes
-
Hardman : You're a Prescott. Prescotts don't cry! Why is she crying?
Leonard Steinman : Her struggle to find her own identity? The emotional turbulence of a first crush? Maybe she watched The Notebook one too many times! Adolescence is a very volatile time for a young woman!
Megan Walsh : [crying] He so gets me!
Hardman : 83! You are a rogue agent! This has got to end!
Megan Walsh : Oh, okay, okay, okay. Hold on now. You can't just take me. A missing girl in a... in a small town will throw up all kinds of red flags. Amber Alert, hello? I need to go back and tie up loose ends. At least just...
[shakes her head]
Megan Walsh : say my Grandma got sick or something.

Hardman : Anyone talks, eventually.
Victoria Knox : I'm not just anyone.
[shakes her head]
Victoria Knox : Am I, Dumbledore?
Hardman : You could have played with the good guys.
Victoria Knox : Good guys? We destroy lives.
Hardman : Only the ones that need to be destroyed.
Victoria Knox : I'm not talking about the targets.

Megan Walsh : How did you find me?
Hardman : Same way I learned to tie a bow tie and slice a pineapple - YouTube.
-
Hardman : One more time. Why did you run away?
Megan Walsh : You deprived me of my childhood. I couldn't just raise my hand and say "Excuse me, Sir, I don't think I really wanna be an assassin. Can I please be excused from this Secret Mountain Killing School?"
Hardman : [as she cries] Wait, wait, please, can we just... stop the waterworks?
[offers handkerchief]

Hardman : [image of blonde woman on screen] Meet Victoria Knox, American ex-pat turned arms dealer. If you're a terrorist, and you wanna kill some folk, this is the person you call. Don't let her good looks fool you. She has an IQ of one-forty. And she will use it to kill you. She was last seen in Corsica three years ago. Until she resurfaced eight hours ago, and will probably be gone in eight more. Unless we bring her in.
[sees Megan engrossed in file]
Hardman : Correction. Unless you catch her, Agent 83, and bring her in. Alive.
Heather : Wait! What?
Hardman : Simmer down! You're B team, 84!
Heather : B team? This should be my mission! I studied the case file! She's over there sniffing Ke$ha, the new fragrance by Ke$ha.
Hardman : I said "simmer..."
[grabs file from Megan, she's been surreptitiously reading teen glossy magazine]
Hardman : You need to get your head in the game, Agent 83! Because Victoria Knox... will take it off!
[to all gathered:]
Hardman : If we follow the profile, everyone will come home safely. And remember, we're not...
Megan Walsh : ...in the rescue business.
Hardman : [points finger at Megan] What she said. Gear up! We're wheels up in one hour!
