Quotes 

• Wyatt Logan : Two lefts from headquarters, thirty minutes on the freeway, and four gravel roundabouts. That should put us somewhere in the... National Park. Smart place for a black site.

  Denise Christopher : You stole a time machine, Wyatt. We can't exactly throw you in county jail.

  Wyatt Logan : Hey, you think you could, uh, slip me a snorkel before the waterboarding starts?

• Denise Christopher : I am seriously pissed at you, but I put in a call to Sam Dwyer. He's a JAG defense lawyer, a good one.

  Wyatt Logan : I don't want a defense. I deserve this.

  Denise Christopher : [standing to leave]  Good luck.

• Wyatt Logan : I never meant for you to get pulled off your detail. I'm sorry.

  Denise Christopher : The hours sucked.

  Wyatt Logan : Yeah, but... changing horses midstream, that's risky. Wait, so this Neville guy just shows up with how many people?

  Denise Christopher : A dozen, maybe more.

  Wyatt Logan : On a top secret project like this? How do you get that much clearance for that many people? Overnight? In Delta, we once ran a two-month op in the Ghazni province where the village chiefs were itching for a fight. Well, we showed up as an international peacekeaping force. Painted the schools, built the wells, all that stuff. By the time the Afghans realized that we controlled their village, there was nothing they could do about it. Takeovers don't have to be hostile. Nah. No, I don't think you got canned 'cause of my little joyride. This thing feels organized. It feels coordinated. They had to be planning this thing for weeks. This is a coup.

• Rufus Carlin : Whoa. Scary Rittenhouse dude is your father?

  Denise Christopher : You shouldn't have talked to him.

  Lucy Preston : I had to see him with my own eyes.

  Denise Christopher : You put yourself in serious danger.

  Rufus Carlin : The guy who's been terrorizing me, that's your dad?

  Lucy Preston : My biological father.

  Rufus Carlin : How about you do me a favor, and next time you and your dad are at a barbecue, you tell him it'd be super great if he didn't kill my family!

  Denise Christopher : Okay, his name's Benjamin Cahill. Squeaky clean record. He's a pediatric surgeon at UCSF, for god's sake.

  Rufus Carlin : Okay, that is so creepy.

• Denise Christopher : Flynn jumped. May 21, 1927.

  Lucy Preston : Paris.

  Rufus Carlin : What's Paris?

  Lucy Preston : That's the day that Charles Lindbergh landed in Paris; the first transatlantic solo flight. But I cannot do this, not now.

  Rufus Carlin : Okay, where's Wyatt? I mean, we're not doing this without him.

  Denise Christopher : After his little stunt, there's zero chance he's going on this trip. My hands are tied. You can either jump into that Lifeboat, or you can sit back and let Flynn torch history.

  Lucy Preston : Maybe we let Flynn torch history.

• Denise Christopher : Lucy Preston, Rufus Carlin, this is Master Sergeant David Baumgardner.

  Rufus Carlin : Bam Bam. Uh, Wyatt mentioned you before.

  Dave Baumgardner : Dave's fine.

  Denise Christopher : We've had him on standby since the Alamo mission.

  Dave Baumgardner : I thought Agent Christopher was yanking my chain when she said "time travel", but...

  [glancing at the Lifeboat] 

  Dave Baumgardner : Holy crap.

  Lucy Preston : I know how you feel.

  Denise Christopher : He's been thoroughly briefed, but show him the ropes. You're the varsity squad now.

  Rufus Carlin : That is not comforting.
