(edit)
Michael: How can you do this? How can you kill all these people? You don’t care, do you?
Nasedo: Michael, if you want to survive, if you want to get back home, you’ve got to be willing to fight for that. You understand?
Michael: You’re not who I thought you’d be.
Nasedo: Neither are you. (edit) Max (to Pierce): Who's inhuman now? (edit) Nasedo: It's inside of you. You're programmed.
Michael: Hey, I didn't get the manual, ok? All this time I've been alone. Where have you been? Where the hell have you been? Why did you let this happen to us... to me?
Nasedo: Emotions are a weakness, Michael. Focus. (edit) Max: You’re evil.
Pierce: I’m evil? I’m risking my life to save my country, my planet, from being colonized by alien life - by you. (edit) Nasedo: Humans are weak, which doesn't bother me, and wasteful. Their brains are incredible machines they haven't even begun to learn to use. When you were engineered you were given the capacity to do everything the human brain is capable of.
Michael: You mean, besides our powers.
Nasedo: Those are your powers, Michael. Everything you can do is human. You're just programmed to be a several thousand years ahead of the rest of mankind, that's all. But from what I saw earlier, you barely tapped in to what you're capable of... (edit)

TRIVIA: In this episode it's shown that Max and Isabel live at 6025 Murray Lane.
(edit)
While Isabel & Alex are on Liz's bed in the background a Star of David is visible. This might mean Liz is Jewish or might refer to Shiri Appleby who in fact is Jewish.
(edit)
After Nasedo changes Michael's clothes into the FBI suit, the camera switches to a shot from behind Michael and he is wearing his jean jacket again.
(edit)
When Isabel is in hysterics after she enters Max's mind to help locate him, Michael is holding her head in his hands. His hands abruptly vanish when she finishes talking about Pierce.
(edit)
As Michael, Isabel, and Tess are observing the hand scanner, the door and the agent using it move exactly the same way twice: once after he opens the door and again on a closeup on the scanner. Both times the agent steps to the left and the door begins to open.
