    • Quotes

      Nell Jones: If it's on the road, it'll show up. I mean you can't hide from Kaleidoscope... You have started a Kaleidoscope search.

      Eric Beale: Not exactly. I plugged into the LAPD database. As soon as the car is found, I will get an alert.

      Nell Jones: You're right. That's not exactly a Kaleidoscope search. So... what are we waiting for?

      Eric Beale: We?

      Nell Jones: You.

      Eric Beale: Hetty told Sam no use of Federal resources for personal matters.

      Nell Jones: Is this the same rebel Eric Beale who completed Level 5 of Warrior Quest on the big screen in Ops? The same rebel who dared to eat Oreo cookies in Ops without a napkin. The same rebel who broke the Internet.

      Eric Beale: But it's Hetty.

      Nell Jones: But it's Sam.

      Eric Beale: I feel like I'm caught between a rock and a hard place.

      Nell Jones: Mmm... you are.

      Eric Beale: While Hetty scare me intellectually. I fear Sam on a more physically visceral level... All right, Beale, let's do this!
