Rob Brown: Edgar Reade

Quotes 

• [Chief Inspector Fischer informs the FBI team that they're under investigation] 

  Chief Inspector Jonas Fischer : The FBI's New York office has been compromised. I'm here to spearhead the investigation and root out the traitor.

  Edgar Reade : [Reade looks to Weller]  You knew about this?

  Chief Inspector Jonas Fischer : Well... maybe Special Agent Weller had good reason to not trust you. Every closet has its skeleton. I look forward to meeting all of yours. And just to show that no one's above suspicion, Agent Weller, you're up first.

• [Agent Reade asks Agent Zapata if she's okay] 

  Tasha Zapata : [Zapata stresses]  Even my standard FBI polygraphs get flagged.

  Edgar Reade : And it always turns out fine.

  Tasha Zapata : But if Fischer's looking for a weakness...

  Edgar Reade : Everybody knows you bomb tests. I'm the one that should be worried.

  Edgar Reade : [Zapata stares at Reade]  Yeah, Zapata, I'm - I'm the mole. That's what I came in here to tell you.

  Tasha Zapata : [Zapata rolls her eyes]  Stupid.

• [Chief Inspector Fischer polygraph tests Agent Reade] 

  Chief Inspector Jonas Fischer : Have you ever removed Government property from this office?

  Edgar Reade : No.

  Chief Inspector Jonas Fischer : Really, Agent Reade? Not a pen? Box of paperclips?

  Edgar Reade : Yes, I've taken a pen.

  Chief Inspector Jonas Fischer : Ah, and did you share that property with someone else?

• [Agent Weller asks Agent Reade about his sister Sarah] 

  Kurt Weller : Reade. You and Sarah, is it serious?

  Edgar Reade : Yeah. I wouldn't be with her if it wasn't.

  Kurt Weller : End it.

• [last lines] 

  Edgar Reade : [Agent Reade and Asst. FBI Deputy Director Mayfair grow curious on Jane's true alibi]  Circumstantial evidence is still evidence, and Fischer's case against Jane wasn't all that crazy. Just because she's not a Russian spy doesn't mean she didn't kill Carter. Where was she that night? Because I have some major reservations about Jane's alibi.

  Bethany Mayfair : Me, too. The question now is, what are we gonna do about it?
