Melinda May : Hartley, Hunter, Idaho.
Isabelle 'Izzy' Hartley : What's the word?
Melinda May : In his office.
Idaho : The director requests an audience?
Lance Hunter : Oh, the man doesn't do requests. And, listen, when we get in there, no matter what you do, don't look him in the eye.
Idaho : [Concerned] Really?
Lance Hunter : Nah, he's all right.
Isabelle 'Izzy' Hartley : But you should both focus on not saying anything overly stupid.
Idaho : Yes, ma'am.
Lance Hunter : I'm not making any promises.

Melinda May : You're the man in charge, but I'm in charge of you, remember? I had two rules.
Phil Coulson : Avoid field operations...
Melinda May : ...And check in with me every few days. It's been two weeks.
Phil Coulson : And I'm flying back out tonight. I have to focus on recruitment. It's starting to wear me down.
Melinda May : The hours?
Phil Coulson : The numbers. Between the traitors, military detainees, and the sell-outs in the private sector, the people who could possibly be considered loyal to S.H.I.E.L.D. is not impressive. And they're scattered all over the damn globe.
Melinda May : Well, you have no choice but to meet them face-to-face, get a read on them.
Phil Coulson : I know, and I prefer it. But flying economy blows.

Phil Coulson : What's your assessment of Hartley's people?
Melinda May : You know what I think. They're mercenaries, here for the money.
Phil Coulson : But what's your assessment?
Melinda May : They're *good* mercenaries.
