- Sarah: (Sarah helps Casey to ask Verbansky for a date) So you froze up. It happens to the best of us.
  Casey: No, I didn't freeze.
  Sarah: Then what do you call that?
  Casey: Reconnaissance.
  Sarah: Wait. You planted a bug on Verbanski?
  Casey: Mm-hmm. Piggybacks off her cell phone's Wi-Fi.
  Sarah: That's a weird move, Casey.
  Casey: This way I can find out everything I need to before I ask her out.
  Sarah: I'm pretty sure that's why people go on dates, to get to know one another.

- Lester: Dude, quick, give me five bucks.
  Jeffrey: Why do you need five dollars?
  Lester: 'Cause Fernando says that if we give him 20, he's gonna let me taser his nads.
  EDIT SHARE
- Alex: I just don't understand. I just want the old Morgan back, you know?
  Casey: I know it hurts, honey. We, Caseys, we don't like to open up, make ourselves vulnerable. 'Cause when someone does rip our heart out and stomp on it right in front of our eyes, it could be like the worst torture of all. I just want you to know that I'm always here for you. Always will be.

ALLUSIONS (2)
ADD ALLUSIONS
- Chuck calls Morgan "Gollum." He is referencing a character from The Lord of the Rings who was originally Sméagol until the ring destroyed his true personality and changed him into an evil creature. Chuck is saying that having the Intersect is doing the same thing to Morgan.
  EDIT SHARE
- The scene where Morgan dodges the tranquilizer darts is an homage to a well-known scene from the 1999 film The Matrix that features Neo (played by Keanu Reeves) dodging bullets in a similar manner.
