Quotes 

• Caroline Turing : I think I owe you an apology.

  John Reese : How do you figure?

  Caroline Turing : I diagnosed you as paranoid.

  John Reese : Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not trying to kill you.

• Caroline Turing : I can't think. I can't move. This must be what panic feels like.

  John Reese : Here, have some chocolate.

  Caroline Turing : Will they help to produce an adrenalin response?

  John Reese : No... but they taste good.

• John Reese : [to Fusco and Carter]  We should all get drinks sometime. My treat.

• Detective Lionel Fusco : You can't trust us, how are we supposed to trust you?

  John Reese : Trust is complicated, Lionel. For example, I'm sitting in a police car with one cop who tried to murder me and another who spent six months trying to lock me up. So you'll forgive me if I take things one step at a time.

• John Reese : Hello, Zoe.

  Zoe Morgan : Good to hear you're getting some help. But I don't think there's a woman out there alive who could fix you, John.

• John Reese : Good morning Finch...

  Harold Finch : Mr Reese. What have you been doing?

  John Reese : Corrupting Detective Fusco...

  Harold Finch : Does he really need any help in that regard?

• Harold Finch : I know you're good at stealing cars. How do you feel about helicopters?

  John Reese : Been a while since I've flown. Might be a little rusty.

  Harold Finch : On the bright side, if you don't remember, it'll be a short fall.

• John Reese : [Heading to the roof]  That sounds like a helicopter...

  Caroline Turing : Isn't that what we want?

  John Reese : I haven't stolen it yet!

  [Changes direction] 

  John Reese : Follow me. Change of plans.

  Caroline Turing : You said you'd tell me when to panic. I'm guessing now's the moment.

• Caroline Turing : Who the hell are you?

  John Reese : Let's just say we both help people cope with their problems. I'm just a little bit more, uh, hands-on. I promise I will tell you when it's time to panic.

• Caroline Turing : Who are those men? Why did they shoot at you?

  John Reese : 'Cause I was standing in front of you.

• Caroline Turing : Who would want to kill me?

  John Reese : I was hoping you could tell me that. Someone with the means and the money to hire a team to get rid of you. Sound like any of your patients?

  Caroline Turing : Yeah. All of them.

• Caroline Turing : You saving me, is this making up for someone you didn't save?

  John Reese : I thought we were done with therapy.

  Caroline Turing : Talking about your issues helps distract me.

  John Reese : Who said I had issues?

  Caroline Turing : I'll take that as a yes.

• Caroline Turing : Who was that?

  John Reese : FBI.

  Caroline Turing : They want to kill me too?

  John Reese : Actually, they're after me.

• Zoe Morgan : You were set up, John. Turing isn't who we think she is.

  John Reese : What do you mean?

  Zoe Morgan : Her office, her life, it's all a mirage. I saw the escrow transfer. She was the one who paid HR.

  John Reese : She put the hit on herself.

  Zoe Morgan : Turing must've learned how you operate, that you'd show up if her life was in danger. She was trying to lure you out into the open.

  John Reese : [Realizes she's after Finch]  She wasn't looking for me. She was looking for him.

• Harold Finch : Thermostat has a motion detector camera. It'll capture the face of any patient coming or going from Ms. Turing's office. Should be able to identify the more prominent ones in no time.I'm guessing one of them hired HR to keep her quiet. Question is Which one?

  John Reese : Till we figure that out, I'm going to want to stay as close to Turing as possible.

  Harold Finch : I agree. Time for you to work through some of your issues, Mr. Reese.

  [Cut to Reese as Turing's patient] 

• John Reese : Caroline Turing. You familiar?

  Zoe Morgan : No, but that's obviously by design. Next to bartenders, men usually like to spill it to female shrinks. It's easier than talking to their wives.

  John Reese : These men value discretion. You know any of her patients?

  Zoe Morgan : A few. Impressive lot. I've narrowed it down to three players. Hans Friedrickson, the lawyer that threatened her. Supposedly he's away on a business trip right now.

  John Reese : Or left town to give himself an alibi.

  John Reese : Patient number two, banker named Terrance Baxter. Rumor is he's being investigated for Ponzi scheme. And there's David Sarkesian. He's a prominent city official. Whispers are he's sleeping with his intern.

  Zoe Morgan : Looks like our shrink is sitting on a powder keg of secrets.

  Zoe Morgan : Which could be lucrative, if you play your cards right.

  John Reese : Or deadly if you don't.
