Quotes 

• Annie Walker : I'd like you to be my handler again. I'd like to go back to when things were simpler. Before I went dark, before Henry, before things got so messy. I've had a lot of time to think about myself and the Agency. And I've realized that I can't do this job and have emotional attachments. I've gotta concentrate solely on the work. I hope that's okay.

  Auggie Anderson : Annie, you dropped off the map there for a while. Time passed. We're good.

  Annie Walker : Really?

  Auggie Anderson : Yeah. Really.

  [smiles] 

  Auggie Anderson : Why, did you wanna make out or something?

  [both chuckle] 

  Auggie Anderson : Welcome back, Annie.

• Annie Walker : You made a mistake back there.

  Charles Schinderman : What, saving your life?

  Annie Walker : I knew Khalid Ansari. And I knew he wasn't gonna shoot me. Besides, he never would have gotten a shot off before me, anyway. And now we have nothing.

  Charles Schinderman : Look, I don't know you, but I wasn't about to let you die.

  Annie Walker : You're right. You don't know me. I don't quit. Now, let's go back to the facility and figure this out.

• Ryan McQuaid : [as Annie walks away]  I like it.

  Annie Walker : What?

  Ryan McQuaid : You're awfully direct.

  Annie Walker : It's a function of the job.

  Ryan McQuaid : No, it's not. Most spies I know are lying sons of bitches.

  Annie Walker : Well, I'm not most spies.

  Ryan McQuaid : And I would love to talk about that more. Give me a call so we can chat about some, you know... some other opportunities. Here's my card.

  Annie Walker : What was it about the conversation that we just had that made you think I would wanna work for you?

  Ryan McQuaid : None of it. I'm asking you out to dinner.
