• [the FBI team searches for the allusive guy named Shawn Palmer, who's using software to track and kill government agents] 

  Tasha Zapata : Palmer's security firm is a front. Outstanding warrants for unauthorized computer access, wire fraud, identity theft. And, ladies, he is single.

  Kurt Weller : And invisible. Cyber Division couldn't even find a photo, let alone an address.

  Patterson : I could find his username with DARPA's deep Web crawler. Or, track his Bitcoin usage in the Blockchain.

  Kurt Weller : Or Ana could just tell us where he lives. She's been to his house.

  Patterson : Oh, sure, I mean, it's a little analog, but...

• [the FBI team learns about the TRAKZER App and the Dark Web] 

  Patterson : One of the shooters had a mobile app I never heard of called TRAKZER. It hacks into the GPS signals from 'Blue Force trackers' on government vehicles and maps their exact location.

  Bethany Mayfair : Where'd they get this and who else has it?

  Patterson : The transactions are untraceable. Probably done through the Dark Web.

  Jane Doe : The Dark Web? That doesn't sound good, what is that?

  Tasha Zapata : 95% of the internet is an index on commercial search engines.

  Edgar Reade : Yeah, the Dark Web is like the Wild West. Everything from weapons to sex trafficking.

• [the FBI team discusses on whether or not the hacker Ana Montes is telling the truth] 

  Tasha Zapata : She's got a healthy imagination, I'll give her that.

  Patterson : She could be telling the truth. I mean, federal agencies hire hackers to red-team them all the time, it's how they find vulnerabilities in their security systems.

  Edgar Reade : She's 17.

  Patterson : Yeah, for a hacker, she's in her prime.
