You smoked an entire pack in an hour. You have any idea how bad that is for you?
It's probably better for my health than waiting around for some burned spy with a grudge.

S1 E15Unfinished Business
[voice-over] One simple but effective trick for identifying a tail is known in the spy trade as running errands. You drive to different locations and stop, going about ordinary business in areas with open parking lots while your team follows, keeping track of the cars at each stop. It doesn't matter how good your tail is. At a certain point, they're going to pop up more than once.
I don't know what you just volunteered me for. I'm not getting mixed up in anything Michael's got going on.
Jesse, we lied about what we did to you. We didn't lie about who we are.
I just want to find evidence Dennis set the bomb yesterday and turn this mess over to the police.
I never thought I would hear those words from you.
I never had to walk around with hole in my clavicle before.
One minute. Then you never have to see me again, ever, if you don't want to.
Next time you show up unannounced, nobody will ever see you again.
[referring to Natalie] I still hate that we're going on this heist with her.
Fi, we can't always pick our teammates in the field.
I am not a spy. I can't pretend someone doesn't make my skin crawl.
[voice-over] National intelligence agencies and local law enforcement work together more often than you might think. Most metropolitan police stations have an office called a fusion center where classified intel is collected in one place. It's a great resource if you need information fast. Unfortunately, it does involve breaking into a police station.
I thought you hated the idea of me working for the government again.
Oh, I do. But I want you to have a choice.
You want me to have the choice, but you want me to choose to turn it down? Either way, don't we end up at the same place?
Michael, I hope you're never in a situation where your survival depends on your ability to understand relationships. You'll be dead in seconds.
[voice-over] A career in law enforcement tends to make for a cynical outlook on life. Where spies spend their careers telling lies, cops spend their careers listening to them.
[referring to Vaughn] His organization has never faced this kind of exposure before. I imagine he'll marshal all of his forces and send them this way.
So, the gates of hell will open...
The apocalypse will be upon us...
And everyone we know and love will be in danger of becoming very dead.
So what else is new?
Everything okay, Fi?
We used to talk about where we were going, what we wanted our lives to be. And now the only time we talk about our future is when someone's coming to end it.
(preparing for his last stand) And for what it's worth, Agent Porter, I'm sorry for what I did to you. I never said it, but I am truly sorry.
(embarrassed) Come on, man, just... I signed up to fight the bad guys, right? That's all you were ever doing. So we're in this together. You good with that?
Yeah, I'm good with that.
I want to know what this means in the end. Who wins? 'Cause honestly, I feel, however this turns out, I lose.
Maybe this isn't your fight, Fi. Just because it's my path doesn't mean it's yours.
Listen to me: if you go back out there, you know what's going to happen.
Yeah, I'm going.
What happened to all that wisdom about you and Mike having different priorities?
Well, screw wisdom! I belong out there with him, for better or worse.
It's probably going to be for worse.
Well, I knew that the moment I met him. (kisses Jesse, then runs back towards Michael) Goodbye, Jesse!
How was the job?
The job was good.
I missed you.
Yeah, I got that. I think you broke a rib.
