James Spader credited as playing...
Raymond 'Red' Reddington
- Diane Fowler: [shot by Red] You can't shoot me!
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: Why not? You're not one of the good guys, and as of today, you're utterly worthless to the bad guys. Fitch and I have an agreement: he goes about his business, I go about mine. You and I don't have an agreement.
- Diane Fowler: I know the truth, Red... about that night... about what happened to your family. Do you want to know the truth?
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: More than anything in the world. But if you know the truth, Diane, then somebody else does too.
- [shoots her again]
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: [Speaking to Liz] There's nothing more profound and of lasting consequence than the decision to have a child. The exploitation and perversion of that decision is the stock and trade of a truly evil organization, The Cyprus Adoption Agency.
