Episode Quotes
Brad Culpepper III: Sterling?
Jim Sterling: Yes, like the machine gun, not the engine.

Eliot: But I need you to do your job.
Nate: And what's that?
Parker: Be Nathan Ford. Be the person we came back for.

Parker: This is hopeless. And it smells.
Eliot: How many ships left on the list.
Parker: Only a hundred.
Eliot: Sweet.
Parker: Yeah.
Tara Cole: This is hopeless.
Parker: And it smells
Tara Cole: Yes, like old clown shoes.
Parker: Briny despair.

Tara Cole: So, no chance of just going in and trusting the fake IDs, huh?
Parker: Don't worry, no one's ever died going in through an air duct.
Tara Cole: That's comforting.
Parker: In worst case, you slip and fall, break your legs... lay there for days, scratching on the metal. It's like a long metal coffin... with wind. Let's go!

Brad Culpepper III: They killed my FBI handlers. They murdered them! And they cut them into pieces. And put them in a bathtub--Into a hotel bathtub!
Tony Kadjic: Is this true?
Nate: To be fair, he did most of the cutting.
Eliot: Thank you. I appreciate it.
Nate: You work hard.

Nate: You guys are the most honorable people I have ever met in my life. You've become my family, my only family. I won't forget that.

Agent Bob: Who the hell is this guy?
Jim Sterling: I don't know.
Nate: My name's Nate Ford. And I am a thief.
