Gabriel Vaughn quotes from Intelligence

Gabriel

That man crossed the Golden Gate Bridge this morning.

Gabriel

I didn't kill anyone.

Gabriel

Riley, you've changed your hair color.

Riley

I don't believe we've met.

Gabriel

Wow... that photo you've emailed your boyfriend in college... got to be careful what you send out there in the world. That's called digital permanence. Right, Amos?

Gabriel

Now what? Following around a charming devil with a microchip in his brain?

Impressive. Almost every word of that was accurate.

Gabriel

Almost? Which word I get wrong?

Riley

Charming.

Lillian

We have no proof that Amelia is even involved, much less working undercover. I need you to stay focused on what we actually know.

Gabriel

I've been searching for her for six years. This is the first good lead!

Gabriel

Yeah. You're clear. (walks away)

Lillian, this is exactly what we worried about when we selected him. If Amelia is involved, he could become irrational, self-destructive even.

Lillian

Well, then find a way to control him because I am not taking my best asset offline in the middle of an active terrorist attack.

I can patch glitches, fix bugs, repair hardware. Hell, I can even reprogram the chip. But it is not the chip that is crashing.

Gabriel

(on the phone) You find a place to live yet?

Riley

Turn to your left. (Gabriel looks through the window and sees her) We call this proximity overlook.

Gabriel

Yeah, well, the rest of the world calls it stalking.

Riley

So, you think someone's inside your cyber-render with you? But you haven't actually seen anyone?

Gabriel

I just feel it, like someone's there watching me.

Riley

And you have no idea who this watcher is?

Gabriel

You're gonna think I'm crazy.

Riley

No, I won't.

Gabriel

I think it's Amelia.

Riley

I take that back. That is crazy. I'm kidding...ish.

Gabriel

(referring to Amelia) I know it's crazy, but is it at all possible that I'm actually communicating with her somehow?

Well, while I would never presume to convince a man in mourning that there is no heaven, this chip does not access other planes of existence.

Gabriel

This place is famous for its homemade tequila. Have some.

Riley

Clarendon Penitentiary is famous for its death chamber. Doesn't make me want to try it.

Look, to be clear, my assignment is TANGENT. That's Finnegan. Secret Service protocol is 90% to the client, 10% to the problem. While I want you to succeed, obviously, if you get yourself into trouble, neither I nor my men will be able to help you. Is that clear?

Gabriel

Unless we only need 10%.

This guy's good, Riley. Keep him.

Riley

Show-off.

Riley

(referring to the kidnapped girls) They came home last night, and their biggest problems were boys and midterms. Now it's Hector Villareal.

Gabriel

Now Hector's about to meet his biggest problem.

Lillian

Start in Arizona. See what you can learn at the scene. Let's find those girls and show the cartel what happens when you cross our border and harm our kids.

Riley

No viable threats in the area, and I checked the car for tampering.

Gabriel

You need a hobby.

Riley

I have one, thank you. Dim mak, pressure points, martial arts. With one hand, I can bring you to your knees. (Gabriel stares at her) You're disgusting.

Gabriel

What?

Riley

I don't like you calling yourself a freak.

Gabriel

The youngest one's always a freak. I was the only one my mother forbid from joining the army.

Riley

Well, if she could see you now.

Gabriel

She'd probably have another breakdown.

Riley

I'll be lucky if I don't have a breakdown.

Riley

So, how does a... special-forces soldier like Norris, that kind of résumé, become a hired mercenary for a crazed despot in South America?

Gabriel

Combat's addictive. No other rush like it. A lot of guys start jonesing the minute they leave the battlefield.

Riley

But to become an assassin? Were there any warning signs with Norris? Psychological spikes, morally questionable behavior?

Gabriel

Morally questionable behavior. Yeah. It's called war.
