Episode Quotes
 
Sydney: Is that Will?
Francie: Maybe he's here to talk to you about the
humiliating kiss.
Sydney: Stop calling it that.
Francie: That's what it was.
 
Marshall: This transmitter will override the CPU and make the network think that you are the sys admin-- the system administrator.
 
Sydney: I don't know how much longer I can do this. Sit in these meetings with Sloane. Look at him as if I don't despise him, as if I don't want to leap across the table and use the skills I've learned, against him.
 
 
Episode Goofs
 
The first part of this episode supposedly takes place in São Paulo, however the kid that finds her does not speak the Portuguese spoken in Brazil. It sounds like a crossover between Portuguese standard and Spanish, which is understandable since the young boy is actually Mexican in real life. Besides, the ambulance driver says "señorita," which means 'miss' in Spanish – the Portuguese (Brazil) work for it is 'moça' or 'senhora'.
