Quotes 

• Roger Dooley : I'm supposed to believe that you pulled off your own investigation without any of us noticing?

  Daniel Sousa : Now, why would you go through all that trouble instead of coming to one of us?

  Peggy Carter : I conducted my own investigation because no one listens to me. I got away with it because no one looks at me. Because, unless I have your reports, your coffee, or your lunch, I'm invisible.

• Peggy Carter : [At Dooley, Thompson and Sousa]  You think you know me, but I've never been more than what each of you has created. To you, I'm the stray kitten, left on your doorstep to be protected. The secretary turned damsel in distress. The girl on the pedestal, transformed into some daft whore. You're behaving like children. What's worse What's far worse Is that this is just shoddy police work. You were inches away from the woman that you want when you loaded me into your car.

• Jack Thompson : Something's not right here. I saw what you did in Russia. What you did for that mission, what you did for me? You saved my life. This doesn't add up.

  Peggy Carter : That's because I had nothing to do with Krzeminski's death or the theft of Howard Stark's inventions.

  Daniel Sousa : "Theft"? Wow. He's really got you wrapped around his finger, doesn't he? I got to give it to him. He's as good as they say.

  Peggy Carter : "As good as they say"?

  Daniel Sousa : He got in so deep, he scrambled your brain.

  Peggy Carter : Howard Stark has *never* scrambled my mind or any other part of me.

• Peggy Carter : [Hands over the capsule that holds the vial of Captain America's blood]  You'll want to be careful with that.

  Roger Dooley : [Opens it and takes out the vial]  Does this stuff implode? Explode? Spice up an Old Fashioned?

  Peggy Carter : That is the last remaining sample of Captain Steve Rogers' blood. Mr. Stark was afraid your scientists would squander the remaining samples attempting to re-create the serum.

  Edwin Jarvis : Which they did, so I'm afraid you'll have to forgive him for trying to protect the greatest scientific feat of the 20th century.

  Peggy Carter : Howard didn't trust me with it, either. He lied about the contents of the device. He nearly convinced me that I was saving the city by stealing it.

  Daniel Sousa : Is that why you kept it Because he lied?

  Peggy Carter : Maybe at first, or perhaps I didn't trust our greatest capitalist with such a prize. But I couldn't bring it here, either. And for that, I don't have an answer. I suppose I just wanted a second chance at keeping him safe.

• Peggy Carter : [Cuffed to the table in the interrogation room]  Mr. Jarvis, how would you feel if we smashed that mirror with this table?

  Edwin Jarvis : I would feel splendid about it.

  Peggy Carter : All right. we pick it up, and then on the count of three...

  Edwin Jarvis : Battering ram. Ready?

  Peggy Carter , Edwin Jarvis : [They lift]  1... 2...

  Edwin Jarvis : Wait! What if there are people behind this mirror that we're breaking?

  Peggy Carter : Then they may get hurt. There'll be a spray of glass.

  Edwin Jarvis : I see.

  Peggy Carter , Edwin Jarvis : [They lift again]  1... 2.

  Edwin Jarvis : Wait! What if these hypothetical people behind the mirror have guns?

  Peggy Carter : Then we may get hurt. There will be a spray of bullets.

  Edwin Jarvis : I see.

  Peggy Carter , Edwin Jarvis : 1... 2... 3

  [They break the glass] 

  Edwin Jarvis : No people. Everybody wins.

  Peggy Carter : I've just thought of something.

  Edwin Jarvis : We're still attached to a table.

  Peggy Carter : We are still attached to a table.

• Roger Dooley : [Dooley has a bomb strapped to him that's about to go off]  Tell... Tell my wife... Tell her I'm sorry I missed dinner.

  [Turns to Carter] 

  Roger Dooley : And you? Promise me you'll get the son of a bitch who did this. Say it!

  Peggy Carter : We'll catch them.

  Roger Dooley : Attagirl.

• Jack Thompson : [Interrogating Carter]  I'm confused.

  Daniel Sousa : I'm sick.

  Roger Dooley : I'm impressed.You're good, Carter. Holy cow, you are good. I got a dozen guys in there wish they could play the game half as well as you.

  Peggy Carter : I'm not playing a game. I never was.

• Edwin Jarvis : I am truly sorry about all of this. When you didn't meet me, I knew and I panicked.

  Peggy Carter : And I suppose the confession portrays me as what? A patsy? A Doe-eyed idiot succumbed to the charms of America's mustachioed Casanova?

  Edwin Jarvis : That is the gist, yes. With a bankruptcy side plot sprinkled on top to provide a motive for Mr. Stark's deeds.

  Peggy Carter : Nice flourish.

• Edwin Jarvis : I'm sure we could lure one of them in, get the drop on them, steal a weapon and...

  Peggy Carter : "Get the drop on them?" You've been in custody all of an hour, and you're Jimmy Cagney.

• Edwin Jarvis : Please help! We're taken hostage in here!

  Peggy Carter : No one's coming.

  Edwin Jarvis : I know you may be universally despised in this establishment, but they barely know me.

  [shouts] 

  Edwin Jarvis : Please help!

• Peggy Carter : Have you ever been hanged, Mr. Jarvis?

  Edwin Jarvis : I can't say that I have, no.

  Peggy Carter : It is quite unpleasant.
