Grant Ward quotes from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

I need a two man team to sneak over the border, find the device, and disarm it within the next 48 hours. And you have two people who fit my bill.

May

Ready to go.

Ward

I was in Georgia when the incursion occurred. I still have contacts on the other side of the border.

And you'll need them. But, we don't have specs on the device, so I need someone on your team who can recognize and dismantle it on sight.

Ward

...Do you mean...

Coulson

I think she does...

Fitz

I found a localized EMP, plus a few other party favors. [The door closes when the cart's halfway through] Oh, come on. What the... Open. It's stuck. [Coulson, Ward, and May arrive] The cart's stuck. [Fitz pulls open the door and turns back to the front of the cart] That's unbelieveable. [The door closes again] WHAT THE HELL?! Who designed this?! In the Hub, of all places! [He shoves the cart out the door, which closes on him.] Oh, that's... [Door closes, cutting off his voice. But he can be seen saying "fantastic".]

Ward

...Seriously?

Ward

[disables an enemy and sees more arriving] Fitz! More Border Patrol!

Fitz

ALREADY MOVING!!! HURRY UP!!!

Fitz

[surprised after kicking a bad guy in the face] I just did that.

Ward

[equally surprised] Yeah...

Fitz

Let's go.

Fitz

This is gonna take a while.

Ward

You have ten minutes.

Fitz

I thought you'd say five.

Fitz

Is science and technology what you imagined, Agent Ward?

Ward

Yep. No uniforms, no rope course, no defined muscularity on anyone.

Fitz

No marching in place, no I.Q.s in double digits.

Ward

Skye looks young enough to blend in.

Skye

You’re not exactly Old Man River, and Fitz looks younger than us.

Fitz

Time will come when you won’t make fun of me for that. You’ll be jealous. You’ll be jealous, wrinkly old hags.

How did Coulson score such a sweet ride?

Ward

He died.

Trip

That's tight.

Fitz

Comms are down. There's too much mountain on top of us.

Trust me – it's better. You don't want them hearing the horrible death we're walking into.

Humor, son. You Brits are too serious. Besides, if the job was easy...

Ward

It wouldn't be fun.

Fitz

I'm not afraid - not yet.

Ward

I could've crossed off that drug lord without getting my picture taken. Single shot, half a mile away.

You're missing the point. I didn't want to just cross him off, I wanted to make a spectacle. People are killed by guns everyday in Bogota. But how often does a monster punch a drug lord's head clean off? Hell, that's international news!

Ward

A gifted that refuses Hydra is a threat. And threats are taken care of quickly.

Skye

[scoffs] That's the difference between S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra.

Ward

And that's why Hydra will win. Because while a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent is considering right and wrong, Hydra's already taken the shot.

Ward

I'm still a part of your team.

Coulson

My team? You th-- You are not, nor you'll ever be, on my team. You dropped Fitz-Simmons out of a plane. You murdered Victoria Hand and Eric Koenig. You betrayed every one of us, you deluded son of a bitch! The only reason you're alive is because you were of use! And the only reason you're being transferred is because your brother is of more use.

Ward

Skye...

Simmons

If I ever see you again, I'll kill you.

Ward

Skye, I give you my word; come with me, we won't fire a single shot. Everyone gets out alive.

Billy Koenig

Good one. Is that what you told my brother before you killed him?

Ward

How many of you are there?

Ward

I know what you're going through. My family did a number on me. Stripped me down, left me hollow. I was a shell. So, when someone finally did come along and offer to build me back up, I didn't resist. Even though what he really did was make me a killer.

But you seem so well-adjusted.

Ward

It was a long road. Took getting locked up to give me some perspective. But then I paid my family a visit. They were surprised to see me, but I think that eventually, we were able to dig in, really express our feelings.

That's it?

Ward

I haven't looked back since. You are the only one who can find yourself.

Hunter

Three men, heavily armed - bet there's more where they came from.

Ward

Does it matter? They got a cyborg on board with rockets in his arm.

Coulson

He's not a cyborg - he's a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent... with rockets in his arm.
