Quantico
Fridays 10:00 PMQuantico Season 2 Episode 9: "Cleopatra" Quotes
Hannah: All right, Parrish, what did you get yourself into this time?
Alex: Hannah? What are you doing here?
Hannah: I think the better question is, what are you doing here. The center of a conspiracy that no one magically knows about but you, again? Alex Parrish, national hero in the wrong place at the right time two years running.
The easiest way to pick someone up is from the bottom of the heap. You want information? Seduce your asset.
Harry
Hannah: This is prime Alex Parrish. Some crazy theory about a hidden terrorist with no ability to prove anything, just conjecture and intuition. You've said that all the terrorists are masked. Do you have x-ray vision? If you could just give me one name, just one, then you might be able to get out of here and help whatever's happening, but you can't, can you?
Alex: Ryan is a terrorist, Hannah.
Whatever special division we've been picked for, whoever's running it, it's still for the CIA, for the greater good.
Dayana
Alex: Evidence is evidence. Just because you don't see how it fits, doesn't mean it isn't important.
Hannah: Did you read that on a tea bag?
So, right now, downtown, one group of rogue agents has taken another group of rogue agents hostage?
Hannah
See people like you want to save the world, but it takes people like me to actually do it.
Harry
Alex: You think I want something from you, and the only way I can get it is to sleep with you? Do you know how archaic this whole scenario is? Like the only thing women have to offer is sex, and men are so dumb that they are going to give up anything to get it. I can get whatever I want without having to compromise myself, and if you couldn't, then you weren't a very good operative. You're saying no to a question I'm not asking, which means this is about what you want from me.
Owen: What is it I want from you?
Alex: Permission.
Seduction isn't a game. It's powerful, and power always has a cost. You have to be willing to be used, violated, culpable, even betrayed to successfully seduce an asset, but no matter how successful you are in completing your mission, waking up and accepting what happened the night before is one of the hardest parts of the job. Now, over the next few weeks, every single one of you will cross a line you never thought possible because you are the ultimate weapon to use on people you've never met, those you love, sometimes your country, and even yourself.
Owen
