Quotes 

• Auggie Anderson : Someone had to doctor that intel.

  Annie Walker : Well, if I hadn't forced it up the chain...

  Auggie Anderson : Hey. You think you're the first operative in this building to come up short? We've all been there. You will bounce back from this.

  Annie Walker : I don't know.

  [shakes her head] 

  Annie Walker : You didn't see how bad it got with Joan last night. And that was before the photo surfaced.

• Joan Campbell : [sighs]  We curtailed your de-brief post-Russia. That was our mistake. So, you can go ahead, pack up, and report to Bluebonnet by the end of the day. And I don't think I need to say this, but I'm going to say it. Do not contact Eyal Lavin. Not until we get this cleared up.

  [goes off] 

  Annie Walker : [glumly]  Back to Bluebonnet.

  Auggie Anderson : You'll get through it.

  Annie Walker : [smirks]  Wow. With all your quips and witty rejoinders, that's the best you could come up with?

  Auggie Anderson : Mm.

  [smiles, walks away] 

• Annie Walker : [on cell phone, after explosion]  I'm fine, Auggie. Surviving car bombs seems to be a special skill of mine.

• Annie Walker : [on speaker-phone]  Joan, I am so close, I can feel it.

  Joan Campbell : You know what?

  [has given up] 

  Joan Campbell : Do whatever you wanna do.

  [disconnects] 

• Eyal Lavine : [after she stopped the car and jumped out]  You wanna tell me what just happened here? What's going on with you?

  Annie Walker : Rivka's at Langley. She said that you've gone rogue. That you doctored the photos of al Masri. Not Mossad. You!

  Eyal Lavine : Wait a minute. Rivka's at Langley?

  [holds up his hands] 

  Annie Walker : You wouldn't do that, would you?

  Eyal Lavine : You mean, she's there right now?

  Annie Walker : I'm telling you, she just left Joan's office. Eyal, tell me that's not true!

  Eyal Lavine : I'm sorry, Annie.

  [she looks at him incredulously] 

  Eyal Lavine : It's true.

  Annie Walker : You're lying.

  Eyal Lavine : [shakes his head]  Annie, I did it.

  Annie Walker : [shakes her head]  Mossad got caught pulling a fast one on the CIA. And now you're taking one for the team to smooth things over. You're sacrificing yourself to protect them.

  Eyal Lavine : You're wrong, I acted on my own.

  Annie Walker : [frowns]  Is there no other way to achieve what you wanted than by using me like this? I trusted you.

  Eyal Lavine : I told you a long time ago that there is no such thing as trust among spies.

  [points finger at his head:] 

  Eyal Lavine : But you don't seem to get it. You know, this thing you keep doing, looking for the good in other people? Not only does it make you weak, it makes you a target. And an easy one at that.

  [she goes off, opens car door] 

  Eyal Lavine : Annie, come on!

  [she drives off, leaving him stranded] 

• Annie Walker : I'm still having trouble believing you would give me doctored photos, knowing what would happen. Given what we've been through.

  Eyal Lavine : What are you saying, Annie?

  Annie Walker : I'm saying I'm giving you one last chance to save our friendship.

  Eyal Lavine : [resigned, but resolute]  There's nothing I can say.

  [she gives him a disappointed look, turns around, walks slowly to her car, leaves him behind]
