Episode Quotes
Arvin Sloane: [Voiceover the last shots of the episode. Jack finds out that Sloane killed Nadia, and Sydney finds Renee dead] A few days I was absolutely horrified that you would suggest that I turn against APO that I would kill my own daughter. I realize now that both were inevitable. That death is a necessary sacrifice; necessary to complete the final leg of this journey. And I have been preparing for this my whole life, I knew it was coming. I have betrayed everyone I ever loved, but I was chosen.
Joseph Ehrmann: We appreciate what you've done.
Arvin Sloane: This is my road to follow.
Joseph Ehrmann: Welcome back. [last lines]

Arvin Sloane: [Nadia has just found Rambaldi's page 47 in Sloane's homes office] Let me explain. Nadia you're going to have to trust me.
Nadia Santos: You said it was over.
Arvin Sloane: No... It's not what it looks like.
Nadia Santos: You've been lying all along.
Arvin Sloane: Look, I handed everything over to the DSR except for that page; I couldn't part with it, I... I'd spent so much time.
Nadia Santos: I don't want more excuses. Just talking about Rambaldi, your face, your voice, it all changes. This obsession you have...
Arvin Sloane: No it's not an obsession... It's faith.
Nadia Santos: Do you have any idea what your faith costs me? What did you think, that I was sleeping peacefully? The last twelve months were an extended nap? [She begins to cry] I heard people talking; I felt tubes being shoved down my throat. I couldn't open my eyes, I couldn't move, I couldn't scream. But I felt everything! So forgive me if I don't have much tolerance for your faith.
Arvin Sloane: Nadia, please... You have to understand.
Nadia Santos: I'm done trying to understand you. You have to make a choice; either me or this. [She holds up the page]
Arvin Sloane: Please don't make me choose between the two most important things in my life.
Nadia Santos: I suppose then, you'll lose us both. [She throws the page in the fire. They fight and he recovers part of the page from the fire and knocks her into a glass table. She falls thru it and glass shards slash her neck and Sloane watches her die]

Mistakes/Goofs
- Goof (continuity error): When Jack and Nadia are at Sloane's storage facility, Jack bends down to open the door, but when the camera angle changes, Nadia is the one letting go of the door.
- Goof (anachronisms): When Sloane is injecting the cure for Nadia, the serum is visible in the syringe. There is a section of air between the liquid and the bottom of the pump mechanism. A few moments later, after he pushes Jack Bristow off of him, the syringe is filled with liquid all the way to the bottom of the pump mechanism.
Trivia
- Final appearance of Élodie Bouchez in the series.
