Donato: The first Giovanni Donato, his timepieces, were miracles of precision. Kings and queens offered him vast riches if only he would design clocks for them. He refused. But he did make... one exception.
Sidney: For Rambaldi.
(Donato nods yes)
Sidney: : Why?
Donato: Rambaldi made him a promise.
Sidney: : What did he promise?
Donato: Rambaldi promised him he would live an impossible long life. Even revealed to him when he would die.
Sidney: Was he right?
Donato: Of course.
-
Sidney: This symbol on the front, what does it mean? (Referring to the Rambaldi symbol )
Donato: The Magnific Order of Rambaldi. Rambaldi's most loyal followers entrusted with safeguarding his creations. Sadly, like most things that once were pure, criminals now use the symbol to infiltrate the order.

(During Sydney's preparation for the lie detector test)
Vauhgn: Are you a double-agent?
Sydney: No... but my father is.
Vaughn: I'm sure he'd be thrilled, if you gave Dreyer that answer.

June Litvack: And on the eve of your first front-page story, you suddenly get cold feet.
Will: What are you saying? What are you saying? I made this whole thing up? Look, I swear to God, the only reason I didn't want this story to run is 'cause I don't want to hurt Sydney Bristow. That's it.
June Litvack: You're a talented writer, Will. But I promise you, if anything like this ever happens again, the only thing you'll be inventing are facts on your own resume.

Jack: Lie detector test.
Sydney: I studied the C.I.A. instruction book on how to take a successful LDT.
Jack: This isn't like that. This test monitors variations in blood flow inside the brain. It's very difficult to deceive. Tell your handler Vaughn he needs to prepare you for this. If he can't, he'll get someone who can.

Sloane: Tell me something. How did Tippin get a lead on the Kate Jones alias in the first place?
Jack: I don't know yet, but I'm looking into it.
Sloane: Well, your efforts notwithstanding, that reporter may well be a casualty of his own curiosity.
Jack: I'd consider that a last resort. I know you want what's best for Sydney, and if at all possible, we should spare her the pain of losing someone else.

(Sloane wants Will to stop looking into Danny's murder)
Sloane: How do you suggest we proceed?
Jack: Leave it to me, I'll get Tippin off the story.
Sloane: And if you can't?
Jack: Then I'll kill him myself.

(Vaughn's preparing Sydney for her lie detector test)
Vaughn: Are you romantically interested in anyone? (Sydney stares back at him) It could be a question.
Sydney: No, I'm not.
(The machine starts beeping and the readings go off the chart)
Vaughn: Interesting...
Sydney: Wait. Ask me that again.
Vaughn: I don't have to, we've got your answer right here. It's very good, we're moving on.
Sydney: Hey, if this were for real I'd be dead by now, wouldn't I?
-
Sydney: How do I look?
Dixon: (smiles) For the record, that's a question you never have to ask anyone.
-
Will: (reading from a book) "Laura, all my love forever and a day. Jack." That's not, like, your dad Jack, is it?
Sydney: Yeah.
Will: Wow. That's uncharacteristically sweet of him.
Sydney: I know. He actually has a heart, which I'm learning little by little.

Marshall: That sound that you're-- you know that boom? That's my mind blowing!
