S1 E15Unfinished Business

[opening voiceover] If we choose to, we can live in a world of comforting illusion. We can allow ourselves to be deceived by false realities... or we can use them to hide our true intentions.

[closing voiceover] To successfully create illusion, the first thing you need is trust. But to perfect an illusion, the false reality must appear as authentic as the one it hides. Careful attention must be paid to every detail. The slightest of imperfections can, like a pin to a balloon, burst the illusion. And the truth behind the illusion becomes revealed.

Victoria': They said it would take an act of Congress to get you out on bail tonight.

No, no. No, all it really took was the Initiative.

What did you promise them?

I don't think I'll know until it's too late.

Hey Nolan, this one time at revenge camp, I met this fellow avenger and guess where he's going to be summering?

[opening voiceover] Penance is a sacrifice. A voluntary punishment to show remorse for a sin. The more grievous the sin, the greater the self-inflicted suffering. For some, the ultimate penance is death. But for others, it is simply a means to an end.

[closing voiceover] To properly do penance, one must express contrition for one's sins, and perform acts to repair the damage caused by those transgressions. It is only when those acts are complete that the slate can truly be wiped clean, and amnesty gives way to a new beginning.

You know, it's amazing what you can find when you know what you're looking for.

[closing voiceover] Revelations can help us accept the things we need the most. Expose the secrets we so desperately try to hide. And illuminate the dangers all around us. But more than anything, revelations are windows into our true selves... both the good and the evil. And those wavering somewhere in between... with the ultimate power to destroy all that we cherish most.

[approaching Emily and Aiden] Sacrificial lamb, reporting for the slaughter. I wasn't expecting an actual firing squad.

Okay, Ems. I can't say you didn't warn me about that tricky little bastard. God, Danny boy really learned how to play dirty.

Unpleasant? Pshaw. Isn't it every man's dream to give over 49 percent of his company to a hostile conglomerate?

Well bros before hos only works if he's not still in love with the ho, bro.

[opening voiceover] Power... born out of nature, coveted by man. Wars rage on, and victors are crowned... But true power can never be lost or won. True power comes from within.

[closing voiceover] Power can be hoarded by the mighty, or stolen from the innocent. Power provides the ability to choose... but has a proclivity for corruption. The use of power is not to be taken lightly... for it is never without consequence.
