Episode Quotes

Natasha Petrovna: You didn't break up with me because the Agency told you to.
Auggie Anderson: Yes, I did. I can show you the memo.
Natasha Petrovna: Oh, please, Auggie. It's a notorious bureaucracy. That memo probably came after you dumped me.

Auggie Anderson: That guy. What is he wearing?
Natasha Petrovna: Green tie, ugly shirt.
Auggie Anderson: And what does that tell you?
Natasha Petrovna: He's a businessman with no style?
Auggie Anderson: No. He's a Canadian businessman. An American would have ordered ham or Canadian bacon. He ordered back bacon and she asked for a serviette.

Annie Walker: Why are you so happy?
Auggie Anderson: I'm heading to datatech.
Annie Walker: Data-what?
Jai Wilcox: Datatech, It's a computer security clearance. It's like comic-con for nerds.
Annie Walker: Isn't that just comic-con?
