Episode Quotes
Michael Westen: You read the files. What is Anson planning? Is he trying to disappear? What is his play here?
Vaughn Anderson: Look, those numbers- they're not just bank accounts and blind trusts. They're linked to real things.
Michael Westen: What things?
Vaughn Anderson: Look, our organization- it wasn't just run on burned spies. We had an infrastructure. We had transport companies, supply depots, weapons manufacturers- legit businesses, all set up to serve our purposes. Without them in place, we would not exist!
Michael Westen: What does this have to do with Anson?
Vaughn Anderson: Michael, you really don't see it, do you? Anson isn't retiring. He's rebuilding. That organization that burned you- he's bringing that back online.
Michael Westen: No...
Vaughn Anderson: You can try and stop it. But if I know Anson, it may already be too late.

Mistakes/Goofs
- Goof (factual errors): Vaughn's passport shows that the date of issue is 12 Oct 2002 and the expiration date is 12 Oct 2013. U.S. passports are only valid for 10 years after they are issued, not 11 years and one day. If the date of issue is correct, the correct expiration date would be 11 Oct 2012.
- Goof (continuity error): When stealing the badge from the employee (4 minutes into the episode) of the law firm, the background changes between having the vendor and his cart right behind Westin and Westin being in front of the law offices.
Trivia
- When Fiona finds the copy of Vaughn's passport in the file, the birthdate used is September 14th, 1953, the same birthday of Robert Wisdom - the actor who plays Vaughn.
