Quotes 

• Megan Carr : He's not the man you think he is. We met on a panel on an energy summit in Berlin. He's charming. He's cosmopolitan. He's not the kind of man that I expected to fall in love with, but... he makes me feel alive in a way that I haven't in a long time.

  Annie Walker : And you've never seen any warning signals? Long, unexplained absences? Questionable business dealings?

  Megan Carr : We have an understanding. No questions about work.

  [takes a sip from her glass] 

  Annie Walker : Sometimes, what you don't know can hurt you.

  Megan Carr : Every relationship you've ever been in, you've had full transparency? Trusted your partner completely?

  Annie Walker : [toys with that steamer trunk key necklace, exhales:]  There were leaps of faith.

• Joan Campbell : [when Annie offers to report back to the horse farm]  That may not be an option anymore.

  Annie Walker : What do you mean?

  Joan Campbell : We had a failed drone strike because of intelligence you brought into this building. What do you think it means?

• Annie Walker : You're gonna put this all on me.

  Joan Campbell : You clearly put yourself in someone else's camp.

  Annie Walker : Arthur validated the decision.

  Joan Campbell : I'm talking about Eyal.

  Annie Walker : Eyal? Eyal put his life on the line for me. He has... proven himself in times of crisis.

  Joan Campbell : Annie, we are always here for you.

  Annie Walker : [nods in ironic way]  When my friend died in a car bomb, you let me get reassigned. When I got thrown into a Russian prison, you let me

  [spits out the word:] 

  Annie Walker : rot without a shred of hope. Eyal got me out. And now, you're questioning my integrity because of my relationship with him? A relationship you encouraged me to exploit as long as it was convenient for this agency.

  Joan Campbell : You know what? I'm done.

  [turns around, goes to her desk] 

  Joan Campbell : I'm... done. Our relationship is clearly more broken than I ever thought it was.

  Annie Walker : I didn't mean to say that you...

  Joan Campbell : [seated at her desk]  I think you meant to say exactly what you said. Perhaps your place inside this building lies elsewhere. A few months ago you applied to transfer out of this division. Maybe it's time we revisited that option.

  Annie Walker : I'm sorry you feel that way.

  Joan Campbell : Sorry doesn't even begin to describe how I'm feeling.

  [shakes her head] 

  Joan Campbell : Goodnight, Annie.
