The Safe House - Wiretaps

Jack (to Sydney): When you compelled the NSC to release me from prison, you told me that you'd done so because you needed your father, that you needed my strength. Twelve months in solitary would have an effect on anyone. Something that allowed me to stay focused was your strength. Don't lose it now.

Sydney (looking at the lipstick): You know, peach isn't really in this season.
Vaughn: I heard peach was the new green.
Sydney: I thought beige was the new green.
Vaughn: No, beige is the new peach.

Vaughn: I'm losing the sig--
Weiss: I'm aiming the mike right at her.
Vaughn: I should have worn the ring.
Weiss: Get over yourself, okay? No one aims a mike like I do.

Simon: No future in murder?
Sydney: I'm a girl with many talents. And I'm your man.

Sloane (to Lauren): I must admit, I was concerned for you when Sydney resurfaced. I remembered seeing her with Vaughn. Their relationship reminded me of my own with my late wife--it was the kind of bond that even death cannot sever.

Sloane (to Lauren): Now Ms. Reed, you shouldn't doubt yourself. You are very good at what you do... despite how you got the job.

Vaughn: Look, I know we're not where we were, but even before then professionally, we never kept secrets from each other. I'm still on your side.
Sydney: You're right. We're not where we were. And trust me when I tell you, I'm doing you a favor by keeping you out of it.
Vaughn: That is not gonna work with me.
Sydney: It's gonna have to. I can't afford to make a distinction between professional and personal, not in my life. This job took two years from me--everything is personal. As much as I wish I could trust you, the responsibilities you have now require me not to.
Vaughn: Responsibilities? What the hell does that mean?...Lauren? Why, because she's NSC or because she's my wife, or is that distinction irrelevant?
Sydney: I'm not punishing you. You think I am--I'm not.
Weiss (interceding): Did somebody die?

Sydney: The last thing I want is to be responsible for driving a wedge between Vaughn and Lauren.
Jack: That is a concern I do not share.

Sydney: The first time you saw me, what did you think?
Simon: You mean in Algeria?
Sydney: Uh-huh.
Simon: Do you remember why we almost died in that godforsaken place?
Sydney: We couldn't keep our hands off each other.
Simon: I thought to myself, now there is a very beautiful woman...who knows how to deceive.

Sloane: I suppose I should come clean with you. That thing I said the other day, the comment I made about how you got the job...I was referring to the Senator. Your father.
Lauren: What about my father?
Sloane: He knew how badly you wanted to become field-rated and he thought it was too dangerous, so he made sure it didn't happen. (smirks) But you knew that, didn't you?
