- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: I was once on the island of Ko Ri, free diving in the Andaman Sea. I fell terribly ill, stung by a lionfish. I was dehydrated and in excruciating pain. I had lost all sense of time and place, completely disoriented. But I knew I was dying. So I readied myself for it. And in that moment at death' door, I looked up... And standing over me in the brightness was this landless Moken Sea Gypsy. Just standing there. Smiling. She and her tribe nursed me back to health. Good as new. When I left the island, she kissed me, it was like a burst of sunlight on my cheek. It was... It made nearly dying welling worth it. That's how I feel now.
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: What are they gonna do to me that hasn't been done before? Kill me? None of it is worse than losing you. Please excuse the gun. I'd hate for them to think we were in cahoots.
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: [after surrendering to the FBI and watching Belin's fly overhead in flames] Now it begins.
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: I met Dr. Sanders here through a mutual friend to discuss a very delicate and underfunded research project. As I recall, the science was awesome, but financially precarious. We did, however, spend a glorious weekend in God's Country with two snow bunnies who were dead ringers for the Swiss Miss Girl.
- Dr. Bruce Sanders: [Both laugh] And we watched Space Ranger.
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: Yes. Space Ranger! What a memory.
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: I have an urgent case.
- Elizabeth Keen: [to Cooper] He'll have to tell it to someone else.
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: That's not going to work.
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: This is a copy of Tom's code-book. It was used to pass information between Tom and his superiors. I had my associate, Borakove, decode it. There's surprisingly little about myself and my organization, but it contains speculation about our cases and a great deal about you. I suggest you use some discretion as to how you disclose any of it.
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: [Keen ignores Reddington] It's an olive branch, Lizzy.
- Harold Cooper: That's five victims.
- Donald Ressler: Five horsemen.
- Aram Mojtabai: That's a great band name.
- Dr. Bruce Sanders: Cullen is the instrument of the apocalypse. The five horsemen are coming. And they will bring death and destruction unlike any...
- Elizabeth Keen: There are four horsemen.
- Dr. Bruce Sanders: There are five! This I know.
