Oh, Nate, you know that the core of good acting comes from persistence of tectonics.
NNate
No idea what that means. Very concerned that you do.

Think about it. Levitating food could replace--
I will stab you in the neck!
Don't hate the barbecue, hate the sauce.
Hope [holding up a red onion]: I'm out of these purple tomatoes.
Hope, those are red onions.
NNate
[over comms] Sophie, we're gonna run a version of the White Van Speakers. Your acting students, do you think they can handle it?
Of course they can. They're my students.
[Zachary ululates and then falls to the floor]
NNate
What was that?
It's just Zachary getting to his authentic place.
NNate
[Repeated line in episode] Gnar Slabdash. The "n" is mostly silent.
JLJean-Luc
[talking to his henchman] What is wrong with you? He is not a real man. He is a chef. He cooks little food in little pots and pans! Allez! Allez! Allez!
I can make blue spaghetti or I can blow a safe.
[After Eliot beats Rampone in a knife fight]
NNate
Eliot. Not worth it. Give him to the cops.
RRampone
Call off your dog. He's crazy.
Crazy? I'm gonna cut your freaking head off and serve in on a platter.
[Later]
NNate
Serve his head on a platter, huh?
Was it too much?
NNate
No, actually, I liked it.
I felt like it was a lot. Like, right when I said it, I felt like I may have gone too far.
What do I know about teenage girls?
NNate
Um, You were a teenage girl?
Only sort of.
Did you know about this, girls being dropped from 20 feet? It's unbelievable.
I know, right? 20 feet. Pfft, walk it off.
Parker, you do know that normal people don't just walk off a 20 foot fall, right?
Parker [seriously concerned]: So all those times I pushed Hardison off a building and he was all WAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH--he wasn't just being funny?
No.
I thought it was funny, Parker.
HHaridson
No way in hell was it funny.
You were always upside down, man.
I fell off a building, yeah I was upside down.
Like a pinwheel, like a Himalayan tree frog.
HHardsion
You call me a frog?
[makes popping sounds while gesturing with his hands]
You call me a damn frog?
Pop pop and upside down. Yeah.
Say it to my face.
NNate
Guys, maybe focus. Guys, focus.
Damn frog.
I love government. Shady deals, back-room meetings. It is grifter paradise.
This is wrong. We work outside the law, not smack-dab in the middle of it.
NNate
Relax, Eliot. Elected officials are the easiest marks in the world. Between their ego, the greed, and the politics, more hooks than a bait shop.
NNate
Let's go steal us some congressmen.
NNate
You said you like back-room dealings.
I like stealing things that are real. Cash, of course. Land, sure. Art, yes, please. Corn subsidies? Not so much.
Are you for real, man? You telling me you bought a congressman with a lunch?
NNate
It was a nice lunch.
NNate
Okay, people, let's grift.
