Red: "I want to know how you see things."
Liz: "You're a loner. You keep your distance. You travel freely through foreign lands. You're rootless. You're very comfortable here with your glass of Scotch but you're just as comfortable sleeping in a cave with rebels or sharing dinner in a hole in the wall noodle shop. Your closest friends are strangers. You understand that tight bonds can make you vulnerable, so you are careful not to have any. And that's why you are so conflicted about me. You need me and you hate that about yourself because it makes you vunerable."

Liz: "How is this all going to end?"
Red: "This is an end. And than something new will begin. You deserve the best in life Lizzie. I know that sounds odd coming from a man who has brought you some of the worst. But it's the reason why Tom had to work so hard to be that for you. To be kind, be thoughtful, make you laugh, to make you love him. Because you deservethat and it will come."
Episode 1x19

Liz: "Did you kill my father? Did you kill him?"
Red: "Yes."
Liz: "I was right. There was something he wanted to tell me before he died and you didn't want me to know."
Red: "It's not quite that simple."
Liz: "Go to hell."
Red: "I don't expect you to understand."
Liz: "Understand?! How could I possible understand when you take someone I love away from me and then try to justify it?!
Red: "Listen to me. I've been friends with Sam for all of yours and most of my life. He was dying. Every part of his body was failing. He was impatient for it to end. He asked to be disconnected from all the machines. He was inpain and suffering and he wasn't thinking clearly. If he were, he would never have chosen to tell you any of it. It wasn't his choice to make. We said goodbye and I put him out of his misery."
Liz: "We're done. I'm done. This ends right now. God you're a monster.
Episode 1x20

Red: "And I can't get them without you."
Liz: "So I guess we are stuck with each other."
Red: "I was once on the island of Ko Ri, free diving in the Andaman Sea. I fell terribly ill, stung by a lionfish. I was dehydrated and in excruciating pain. I had lost all sense of time and place, completely disoriented. But I knew I was dying. So I readied myself for it. And in that moment at death's door, I looked up and standing over me in the brightness was this landless Moken Sea Gypsy. Just standing there Smiling. She and her tribe nursed me back to health. Good as new. When I left the island, she kissed me, it was like a burst of sunlight on my cheek. It was.. It made nearly dying welling worth it. That's how I feel now.
Episode 1x21

Liz: "The only memory I have of my father is from the night of the fire. I remember him pulling me out of the flames, saving me."
Red: "Yes and knowing him identity would put you in grave danger."
Liz: "Why? Because he is a fugitive on the mosted wanted list?
Red: "I loved Sam Lizzie. Taking his life was, of all the difficult things that I have done, this may be the most. But I did it to keep you from learning the name of your real father. To protect you. And you must understand having done that, I'm certainly not going to tell you who he was now."

Red: "You told me Tom is dead. He is not."
Liz: "Who told you he's alive?"
Red: "I'm disapointed you haven't felt that you could trust me enough to tell me this."
Episode 2x08

Red: "When you love someone, you have no control. That is what love is. Being powerless."
Liz: "I don't know what's wrong with me."
Red: "There's nothing wrong with you."
Episode 2x08

Liz: "So that's what this is about. This whole thing. Protecting yourself?"
Red: "Maybe hard for you to imagine but I once had a relatively normal life. Bills to pay. Playdates. Family. Some friends. People to care about. Lost all that."
Liz: "Lost how?"
Red: "In Mexico, there are these fish that have colonized the freshwater caves along Sierra del Abra. They were lost. They found themselves living in complete darkness.
But they didn’t die. Instead, they thrived. They adapted. They lost their pigmentation, their sight, eventually even their eyes. With survival, they became hideous. I’ve rarely thought about what I once was. But I wonder if a ray of light were to make it into the cave, would I be able to see it? Or feel it? Would I gravitate to its warmth? And if I did, would I become less hideous?”
Episode 2x09

Liz: "You were there. Weren't you?"
Red: "Yes."
Liz: "There were people with a woman looking for it. The Fulcrum. You were one of them."
Red: "It's not that simple."
Liz: "But that's why you were there? That's why you came into my life. That's why you're here now. Not because of me. Who I am to you. Whatever connection we might have but because of some object. Some thing."
Red: "Whatever you remember.."
Liz: "What I remember is leaving my father dying on the floor of a burning house. There is no way he could have survived that."
Red: "Lizzie, the memories of a 4 year old are unreliable."
Liz: "My father was killed because of The Fulcrum. Because you and your people came for it that night. Well I want you to know something. This charade, of you pretending to care about me. It was a waist of your time, because I don't know where it is."
Episode 2x10

Liz: "Thanks, but, no, thanks. I wish you'd stop."
Red: "Stop what?"
Liz: "Trying. Stop hoping things are gonna get better between us. You and me, it's just business. That's all it's ever gonna be."
Episode 2x12

Red: "What were you thinking running after a killer alone without backup?"
Liz: "Are you scolding me?"
Red: "Yes. Yes, I'm scolding you. That was foolish, Lizzie. You could have been..."
Liz: "Killed?"
Red: "Exactly that. Killed."
Liz: "What are you gonna do?Ground me? Take away my phone privileges?"
Red: "You were right about The Deer Hunter. He was a man."
Liz: "And a woman. We were both half right."
Red: "Together, we were right."
Liz: "I have the Fulcrum. Tell me what it is, and I'll tell you where to find it."
Red: "I believe I know the real reason you don't want me to have the Fulcrum. Because you're afraid that once you give it to me, you'll be of no further use to me and you'll never see me again."
Episode 2x13

Red: "Lizzie, you need to go."
Liz: "Damn it! What's the code?"
Red: "Listen to me. I was brought in through a series of tunnels that way. If you hurry, you'll be miles away before they ever realize you're gone. Take the boy and go."
Liz: "You could be killed."
Red: "Lizzie, you did everything you could. It's time to go. Go."
Episode 2x14

Red: "You can never do that again."
Liz: "You're welcome."
Red: "I'm serious. You can never do that again. Promise me."
Liz: "We took down dozens of wanted criminals, recovered millions of dollars in stolen property, and saved innocent lives."
Red: "I'm not talking about that."
Liz: "You. You're talking about you. Wow. You are so damaged. You can't accept help from anyone. Has anyone ever helped you? Is that why you are the way you are? Because you don't feel deserving of it? Is that why you can't be vulnerable for a second? I risked my life for you because I care about you. Deal with that. And when someone does something nice, you're supposed to say, "Thank you.""
Red: "Thank you."
Liz: "You're welcome."
Red: "But never do it again."
Episode 2x14

Liz: "It's my fault. I never should have put him there. He'll go to prison for the rest of his life because of me."
Red: "One step at a time, Lizzie."
Liz: "He's not gonna come back."
Red: "He will. This journey we're on isn't over just yet. You may have given up on us, but I haven't."
Episode 2x16

Red: "A bottle of wine you made with Sam when you were a child. Happy birthday, Lizzie. You've become everything Sam dreamed you would and more. Share it with someone special. That said, it's probably undrinkable by now, so I also brought you an '82 Brunello as a backup."
Liz: "31. No offense, but that's old."
Red: "My yogi tells me that time doesn't exist. He fully intends to live forever and tragically, he's not the only one."
Episode 2x17

Liz: "Don't give me advice. This man, this liar, he told me something. Something that I need you to confirm. Now, before I ask, I want you to understand that I expect you to give me the dignity of a yes or a no. Do you understand?
Red: "Yes. I'm the one who hired Tom Keen to enter your life. Can I explain?"
Liz: "No. No, you cannot explain. Here. This is all you wanted. Now you have it."
Red: "Lizzie, when I hired Tom.."
Liz: "I said please do not attempt to explain why. I don't care why. I just want this to stop. I want it all to stop, right now."
Episode 2x18

Red: "Lizzie , when I hired Tom Keen.."
Liz: "Don't. There's nothing you can say."
Red: "When I hired Tom Keen, it was at a time of profound transition in your life. You'd already left behind the relative safety and innocence of youth. Sam's care as a father had served you well, but you'd outgrown him. A-and I knew that eventually my life would jeopardize yours. So, in an admittedly presumptuous and ultimately futile effort to keep you safe, I hired Tom simply to be there as a friend of a friend to look after you from an arm's length. When I learned that your relationship had become intimate, I fired him. I should've removed him, but you were already in love with him. And Tom, he shifted his allegiance to Berlin in part to protect himself from me, but also because it allowed for an inextricable intimacy and commitment to you. And so you were married. And I couldn't stay away any longer. A confluence of peril had entered your life, and I wanted to be within reach, to have influence. I turned myself into the FBI to point you toward a truth that inevitably you would have to discover for yourself."
Liz: "Is that all of it?"
Red: "Some of it."
Liz: "Why couldn't you just have said yes? It wouldn't kill you to lie just once to make someone feel good."
Episode 2x19

Red: "The girl is you. And the woman is your mother."
Liz: "What was her name?"
Red: "I knew her as Katarina Rostova. One of her many names. She was a KGB agent."
Liz: "The girl... The night of the fire, they called her..."
Red: "Masha. You were born in Moscow. Your parents, your father and.. They were both in foreign intelligence."
Liz: "You said she died of weakness and shame. You were there that night. I need to know what happened."
Red: "You want to know. There's a difference."
Liz: "Dr. Orchard told me someone blocked my memory of that night. Was it you?"
Red: "Yes."
Liz: "Why?"
Red: "I'm not going to tell you."
Liz: "You have a picture of my mother in your weird, little apartment. Why?
Were you in love with her? Is that why my father died? You killed him because you were in love with my mother? Tell me what happened. Please."
Red: "I'm not gonna tell you what happened, Lizzie."
Liz: "Then I'll find out for myself."
Episode 2x20

Liz: "You got me out of the Post Office. You gave me a chance to prove my innocence. I know you think you care about me. But every time you do something that makes me think you really do, you do something else that reminds me that you simply aren't capable of it."
Red: "I'm a sin eater. I absorb the misdeeds of others, darkening my soul to keep theirs pure. That is what I'm capable of."
Liz: "What sin of mine could you possibly have absorbed?"
Episode 2x22

Liz: "I remember. I remember everything."
Red: "Remember what?"
Liz: "The night of the fire. I know what happened, and I understand why you didn't want me to find out. When I pulled the trigger. When I shot Connolly, I... It came back to me. It was like I was there. I could hear them arguing. He was hurting her. And I know why my father died that night. I shot him. That's why you blocked my memory. Not to protect yourself. To protect me. You're my sin eater."
Red: "Tried to be. But I failed. I never wanted you to be.."
Liz: "What?"
Red: "Like me."

Liz: "If I didn't know any better I'd believe him."
Red: "But you do know better."
Liz: "There gonna believe I am a Russian spy. My mother was a Russian spy. I doesn't matter that I never knew her. It's the perfect story. I'm the perfect patsy."
Red: "We have to be patient."
Liz: "Patient?! Do you have any idea the kind of resources they are throwing at us right now? The man power? This city.."
Red: "This city is impossible to get out of now. We have no chance of crossing the perimeter they have established. But Washington DC. can not sustain a siege.
The economy, the government. One week. Two at the most and the city will be back to normal. That's when we travel."
Liz: "People will go on believing I'm a terrorist."
Episode 3x01

Red: "I made it through but you won't. You have to turn back right now."
Liz: "Turn back where? There is no where.. what are you doing?"
Red: "Lizzie. Listen to me. Take a breath, you can do this."
Liz: "What? What am I going to do?"
Red: "I'm outside the perimeter and I won't be able to get back to you in time. So you are on your own. You need to find a place to hide. Some place where they can not get to you. Katarina Rostova was the cleverest most resourceful woman I have ever known."
Liz: "What are you saying?"
Red: "No matter how dark the moment, she could always find her way through."
Liz: She was a Russian spy who I never knew."
Red: "No you didn't. But that doesn't mean your mother is gone. I see her in you every day.
She is as much a part of you as the air you breathe."
Liz: "I can't do this."
Red: "You can. You must."
Liz: "2650 Wisconsin Avenue."
Red: "No. Lizzie. No no."
Liz: "It's the only chance I've got."
Episode 3x01

Liz: "How do you deal with people looking at you that way? The fear? How do you go on knowing that people are terrified of you?"
Red: "From as early as I can remember, I dreamed of someday being captain of a ship. To be out there on the ocean in the middle of the night, navigating by the stars. I always thought it would be the greatest life on earth. The people you’re talking about.. The ones who think they know you… they really don’t know anything about you at all. I’ve never told anyone that before. About a life at sea."
Liz: "I think you would have made a terrific captain."
Red: "I don't know. You can’t do every silly thing you want to in life. You have to make your choices. You have to try to be happy with them. I think we’ve done pretty well. I’m not saying it’s easy to ignore the way people look at you. But I hope you can find some solace in the fact that when I look at you.."
Episode 3x02

Red: "That's Polaris. The north star. That's how sailors used to find their way home. When I look at you, that's what I see. I see my way home."
Episode 3x02

Liz: "I killed the Attorney General of the United States."
Red: "Yes and when you did that, you crossed a threshold. Leaving your world and entering mine. Bad things are going to find you now Lizzie. This life.. has a mind and a momentum of it's own. That's a reality you need to accept. Bad things happen to good people."
Liz: "Am I a good person? I am not so sure anymore."
Red: "I am sure."
Episode 3x03

Red: "Lizzie, have you seen the deal? It's not everything we wanted but it's close. You'll be safe. Be free."
Liz: "But I won't be an agent. I'll be an asset. Like you."
Red: "Yes. I told you some time ago when you pulled that trigger you crossed a threshold.
You stepped from your world into mine. I wish I could deliver the perfect outcome but I'm afraid.."
Liz: "This is fair."
Red: "Fairness is overrated. And maybe there is a way to get you all the way back but for now Lizzie, for today, sign the deal."
Episode 3x10

Liz: "It's your battle, not mine."
Red: "I wish that were true Lizzie. But the manhunt revealed certains facts that had long been hidden. About you."
Liz: "Me?"
Red: "Katarina Rostova was a name that had been lost to history. Masha Rostova was never more than suspicion and rumour. The manhunt and the publicity it generated changed all of that."
Liz: "But who would care that I am Katarina Rostova's daughter?"
Red: "The daughter of a legendary spy master? The secret keeper who disappeared."
Liz: "Disappeared? You and Sam told me she was dead."
Red: "The secret she took with her could comprise any number of players on that map. They'll be coming. They'll be coming for you."
Liz: "But I don't know anything."
Red: "They don't know that. You can't walk away Lizzie. They won't let you."
Episode 3x11

Liz: "I'm pregnant."
Red: "Yes. I've known for some time."
Liz: "How?"
Red: "Everything. Your body, your skin, a look in your eyes, different tastes for different foods, nausea, distracted, moody."
Liz: "Yes. With everything that was happening, I just... I mean, I guess I knew, but I just couldn't. I bought a pregnancy test three weeks ago, and I threw it out before I took it. I mean, I was okay facing the Cabal, but those two red lines. I just... could not handle that."
Red: "I assume Tom is the father."
Liz: "I haven't told him. Uh... He's still figuring his life out. There's a job in Boston."
Red: "I know you want to believe that our work is done, but it's not. The addition of a child will make that infinitely more difficult."
Episode 3x12

Liz: "I found a couple to take the baby. Thinking about it is one thing, but actually doing it.. How did she do it, my mother?"
Red: "Your parents loved each other very much. The Cold War was hard. Too hard for your father. When the Soviet Union was collapsing, he took you from her. She gave up everything to follow him, to follow you."
Liz: "The night of the fire, that's what they were arguing about?"
Red: "Your mother despite what he'd done, she wanted him back. She wanted them to be a family. As much as it pains me to say it, he was probably...
the only man she ever really loved."
Liz: "And I shot him."
Red: "It was an accident."
Liz: "Tell me. I need to know."
Red: "Your mother was never the same after that. The man she loved killed by the child she adored. It was just too much. Two months later, she went to Cape May and left her clothes on the beach, walked into the ocean, and was never seen again.
Liz: "So that night I killed both my parents."
Red: "You were a child. There should never have been a gun for you to grab. Looking back, I'm not sure I shouldn't have raised you myself. I don't want you looking back with that kind of regret."
Episode 3x13

Red: "How are you feeling?"
Liz: "We've decided to keep the baby."
Red: "We?"
Liz: "I've accepted Tom's proposal. We're gonna get married. I know how you feel about him. I hope you'll keep an open mind."
Episode 3x16

Liz: "My mother's alive. You lied to me."
Red: "Velov is the one who lied to you, Lizzie, not me. Katarina Rostova committed suicide in 1990."
Liz: "Velov was the agent assigned to find her. He was getting close, she knew it. That's why she allegedly walked into the ocean. She wanted the world to believe she drowned."
Red: "But Velov knows differently."
Liz: "He tracked her to a hotel in Prague. She had just left. But in such a hurry, she missed this... A photo of her little girl. Me."
Red: "That could easily have been planted."
Liz: "You said the name Masha Rostova had been lost to history until the manhunt. Now it's out there, and someone's looking for me. It's my mother. Who else would care? Who? You were right. Some things can't be forgiven."
Episode 3x16

Liz: "Oh. Then you're here for the wedding?"
Red: "No, Lizzie. I'm here to ask you, to implore you, please, don't do this. I'm telling you, no matter what you believe, Tom is not the man you think he is."
Liz: "You're wrong. You don't know him."
Red: "He's a criminal."
Liz: "No. He's changed."
Red: "Men like Tom don't change. You're attempting to build a life with a man who is fundamentally dishonest."
Liz: "No. I am attempting to build a life with the father of my child. A normal life with two parents who love one another. With everything you know about me, can't you see that? Can't you see how important that is to me? To my child?"
Red: "You were wrong about him once. What makes you so sure you're not wrong this time? Do you really want your child to pay the price for that mistake for the rest of his or her life?"
Liz: "Get out. I want you to go. Please? I don't want you here."
Episode 3x17

Red: "You need to leave. Mr. Kaplan will be there in five minutes to pick you up out back."
Liz: "Did you hear a word Tom just said?"
Red: "I can't protect you in a hospital."
Liz: "You can't protect me in a church, either."
Red: "Let me rephrase that. I cannot safeguard you and the dozens of innocent patients and medical personnel who'll be caught in the crossfire when Solomon and his storm troopers put together where you are. I know how desperately you want to protect your baby, Lizzie. So think."
Episode 3x18

Red: "Congratulations, Elizabeth. May I see her?"
Liz: "No. Get out. Please, go away. Make him go away. It's not the drugs. This is my daughter. I'm begging you."
Episode 3x18

Liz: "I'm sorry I kicked you out. It wasn't fair after all you've done for me.
Red: "I've done nothing for you, Lizzie."
Liz: "I'm scared for my little girl."
Red: "It's the children whom the world almost breaks who grow up to save it."
Liz: "I don't want that for her."
Red: "I wasn't talking about her. I was talking about you, Elizabeth."
Liz: "Oh, Raymond. I do love.."

Liz: "Agnes. Do you have Agnes?"
Red: "I don't have her."
Liz: "Go. Find Agnes and Tom."
Red: "I'm not leaving here without you."
Liz: "If they get you, they'll kill you. Did you hear me? You have to go."
Red: "Elizabeth, I will come for you."
Episode 4x01

Liz: "Alexander Kirk says he's my father."
Red:"I'm doing everything in my power to find Agnes and bring her home safely to you."
Liz: "Do you have any leads?"
Red: "Yes."
Liz: "What? Who?"
Red: "I'll be handling it on my own."
Liz: "I know you feel betrayed. Samar and Aram feel betrayed. Everyone feels betrayed. But.. my daughter is missing, and if you have any idea how to find her, you've got to tell me."
Red: "No, I don't. I expected Kirk to go underground after the FBI's raid at his estate. He didn't. I have it on good authority he reached out to a uniquely inventive young man named Miles McGrath."
Liz: "And you really believe that if we find McGrath, he'll lead us to Kirk?"
Red: "Not us. Me."
Episode 4x03

Liz: "I lied to you. You asked if Kirk had reached out, and I told you he hadn't. That wasn't true. He set up a link. A video feed so I could see Agnes."
Red: "How incredibly cruel."
Liz: "Tom tried to trace the link, tried to find Agnes, but Kirk found out, and now.."
Red: "She's gone."
Liz: "I thought I could make it better, that I could protect my baby. I mean, that's my one job. To protect my child. Make her feel safe at any cost. To hold her. To tell her everything's gonna be okay. But now because of me, because of what I've done, I can't even do that."
Episode 4x04

Red: "We're at cross purposes, Elizabeth. Not about Agnes. About Agnes, we're in lock step. But about Kirk, about who he is and what he wants. We're... at odds."
Liz: "But that's because you can't seem to accept that Kirk has answers to questions I've been asking my entire life."
Red: "Your call saved my life. Thank you."
Episode 4x05

Liz: "You lied to me about everything."
Red: "May I pour you a glass of this delicious Aglianico? What's this?"
Liz: "A DNA report. Proof that Alexander Kirk is my father. You told me my father was dead, that I killed him. Everything you've said from the start, from the very beginning, all lies."
Episode 4x05

Red: "I don't believe Elizabeth's concern is about her security or her daughter's."
Liz: "That is my only concern. Clearly your only concern is that it might actually bother me that I'm about to entrap my biological father, that because of me, he's gonna go to prison for the rest of his life. If I go through with this, you will be my only link to my past. I lost Sam. I lost my mother. And I'll lose Kirk. And whatever you want to call him, he was married to my mother. He raised me as a child. And he's willing to do what you are not. Tell me about who I am."
Episode 4x06

Liz: "You know, I really believed he was my father."
Red: "You had every reason to."
Liz: "Except for one. You. You told me my father died when I was a little girl. I just.. I guess I didn't want to believe it. I really wanted my dad here to see her grow up."
Red: "He would've wanted that, too."
Episode 4x08

Liz: "The wine was clean. The tox lab said there was nothing in it."
Red: "That's not possible. Check again."
Liz: "They said the poison had to have been administered by something with a higher alcohol content, like gin or.."
Red: "Scotch."
Liz: "Yes. Did you drink scotch?"
Red: "I did. But there were only two people who had access to the bottle. And I'm one of them."
Liz: "Who was the other?"
Red: "No, it can't be."
Liz: "Reddington, talk to me. Who poisoned you?"
Red: "That can’t be."
Episode 4x15

Liz: "Aram insists Dembe is innocent."
Red: "I need to be the judge of that."
Liz: "He is not the one hurting you. He was using Aram to find that person."
Red: "People run when they are scared and when they are guilty. You can afford to hope for the best but to survive in my world.. I assumed the worst."
Episode 4x16

Red: "A man’s greatest enemy is the dark forces pent up within himself. But not for me. My dark forces had a name, a person I entrusted with the most heinous offenses of my life. My confessor, who doth now condemn me."
Liz: "What are you talking about?"
Red: "Katherine Nemec."
Liz: "Who is Katherine Nemec?"
Red: "The name that came to represent my darkest hours. My friend. Mr. Kaplan."
Liz: "Mr. Kaplan? She’s alive?"
Red: "When I pulled the trigger, I left without checking. I would never have been so careless if.. there wasn’t a part of me that wished I hadn’t done what I just done. It’s been her all along. Retribution for what I did to her."
Liz: "Can the score be even now? Can this be over?"
Red: "All I know is I need to find Dembe."
Episode 4x16

Liz: "When I thought you killed Mr. Kaplan, I felt responsible. Not just responsible, I felt complicate."
Red: "It wasn’t about you. She made her choice. Her. Not you."
Liz: "Yes but she did it for me. Can’t you see that if you hurt her, you're hurting me. I will help you stop her but I will not let you hurt her. Now I need you to look me in the eye and tell me you won’t harm her."
Red: "I can’t do that Elizabeth."
Episode 4x18

Liz: "What was the secret you needed Krilov to take away?"
Red: "Nothing. She's using him to pull at threads to continue to unravel my life. He sidelined Ressler. He's trying to do the same to you."
Liz: "You did it once."
Red: "Yes. When you were a child, to protect you from the memory of killing your father. I hired Krilov once. Never again."
Episode 4x19

Liz: "You had me kidnapped. You put Agnes at risk."
Red: "Agnes was never at risk and I gave explicit instructions you were not to be harmed in any way."
Liz: "Untie me. I said untie me."
Red: "I wish I could."
Liz: "She's on her way here now thinking she's going to save me."
Red: "I assume so, yes."
Liz: "And you're gonna kill her."
Red: "As I said, that's entirely up to her. I want to believe there's another way."
Liz: "After everything that's happened? What could she possibly say to convince you?"
Red: "She doesn't have to convince me. You already did that. But for a war to end, both sides have to be willing to find peace. And up until now, it seems Kate has believed the only satisfactory outcome would be if one of us dies. If that's true, it has to be her."
Episode 4x20

Red: "You let her get away."
Liz: "I couldn't stop her."
Red: "Well, you heard it yourself. Her truth. That we cannot coexist."
Liz: "I know Mr. Kaplan said that the two of you can't coexist, that that was her truth, but I still hope it can change."
Red: "I have found in my experience people rarely change. And when they do, they're not to be trusted."
Episode 4x20

Liz: "You lied to me. The day we met, you asked how I got my scar. And I told you my father gave it to me. But you knew that already, didn't you? What was it you said? A father who's a career criminal and a mother who died of weakness and shame. Why didn't you just tell me who you were? Why keep it a secret? Come into my life, give up everything, go broke trying to protect me, and not tell me you're my father?"
Red: "Broke is such a harsh word. I prefer illiquid."
Liz: "What was so awful that you withheld the answer to a question I've been wondering my entire life? Were you afraid I'd turn out like you? 'Cause guess what? I am like you. All those times you asked me to think like a criminal, was it a test to see how naturally it came to me? Because it did come naturally. And that terrifies me."
Red: "Elizabeth, if you need to walk away.."
Liz: "Walk away? Are you serious? How can you be so smart and so clueless? Yes, I'm terrified, I'm angry. I'm angry at you, at who I am, at the fact that I want to help you despite everything you've done to me and to yourself. But anger and fear and a certain amount of hatred are all normal in a family. And that's what we are. And I'm not gonna walk away from that."

— s e a s o n . five —

Liz: "I'm scared of you. Now more than ever. Of who you are, because you might be who I am, too. I let you do it because it felt like the right thing to do. It wasn't. But it certainly felt that way because.."
Red: "Because you're my daughter?"
Liz: "In more ways than I care to admit."
Episode 5x02

Red: "You ever wonder why Dembe stays with me why anyone so decent would spend his days at the side of someone so indecent?"
Liz: "You saved him. He owes you his life. He protects you because you protected him."
Red: "No, Elizabeth. Dembe didn't stay with me because he saw me as his savior. He stayed with me because he saw me for the man I really was a man surrounded by darkness. No friends who could be trusted, no faith that loyalty or love could ever truly exist. I was.. well, I was younger then. Angrier. Dembe connected his life with mine to show me, that day and every day, that the world is not what I fear it to be. He is the light in the darkness. Living proof that there is another way, that life can be good that people can be kind, that a man like me might one day dream of becoming a man like him. He pledged his life, offered it up as evidence that I was wrong about this world. Dembe guards my life because he's determined to save my soul."
Episode 5x07

Red: "I want you to promise me something. That you’ll grieve."
Liz: "Of course I’ll grieve. What is this you think I’m doing?"
Red: "I think you’re running away from your problems when you should be facing them. I'm sure it feels like you're staring into an abyss, but until you mourn, you won't be able to cross it."
Liz: "What's so great about crossing it? What's on the other side? Peace? Tranquility? I prefer revenge."
Red: "That's what I'm afraid of."
Liz: "Really? 'Cause imagining what I'm gonna do to Tom's killers it's the only thing that gets me out of bed in the morning."
Red: "Don't just go off and hide in the dark. Wherever you go, look for some light."
Episode 5x09

Red: "The help I need violates the spirit of that advice. I wouldn't even ask for it if it wasn't critical."
Liz: "The answer is yes."
Red: "You haven't even heard the question."
Liz: "You're my father. You need my help. It's not like you're gonna ask me to get rid of a body or anything."
Episode 5x11

Red: "I know how hard this is."
Liz: "I need your help to find Tom's killer. I need it, but I don't know if I can trust it."
Red: "You won't miss a day more with her than is absolutely necessary. You have my word."
Liz: "And you have mine. That I'm gonna honor Tom's dying wish."
Red: "Which was?"
Liz: "For me to know your truth. Before this is over, I'm going to find out what it is."
Episode 5x12

Red: "I do know, by the way. What Tom figured out. The truth he uncovered has to do with me."
Liz: "I knew it. I knew you were lying."
Red: "I told Tom not to pursue it."
Liz: "What? Pursue what? What is it?"
Red: "An item Mr. Kaplan unearthed that I wish to keep hidden."
Liz: "An item? What item?"
Red: "I can't say."
Liz: "Tom died because of it."
Red: "Tom ignored my warning. That is why he died."
Liz: "And this item Did Tom have it?"
Red: "Yes."
Liz: "And now his killers do. That's why you're here. That's not to help me, not to avenge Tom's death, but to help yourself and get your precious secret back."
Red: "We want the same thing."
Liz: "I gave Agnes up until this is over. If I miss even one more day with her than is absolutely necessary because you're not being completely honest with.."
Red: "But I am being honest. I do know, but I can't say. I'm not trying to be clever. It's not an ambiguity. It's the truth. I have a secret, and I need to keep it even from you."
Episode 5x12

Liz: "Do you not know, or you can't say? The truth Tom discovered. I asked if you knew about it, and you said, "I can't say." Does that mean you don't know, or is "can't say" some clever turn of phrase that makes it possible for you to be honest and secretive?"
Red: "What is this about?"
Liz: "You've asked me to trust. All I do is trust. I trusted Tom forgave every lie, believed every promise that he would stop keeping things from me. And then he went off on some secret quest and got himself killed. And now I have killed someone trying to figure out what it was he was keeping from me. And you have kept so many things from me, I would have to be an idiot to believe that this is not one of them."
Episode 5x12

Red: "I have nothing to do with your reinstatement."
Liz: "My therapist disagrees and it's up to her. Besides, I thought you liked therapy."
Red: "It can be transformative for people who need it. We don't."
Episode 5x14

Red: "Where are you going?"
Liz: "Why? So you can get to Garvey first?"
Red: "I can help protect you from him."
Liz: "I don't need your protection. What I need is that duffel bag, and I'm about to get it."
Episode 5x19

Liz: "It's a trap your meeting with Garvey. If you show up, you'll be killed."
Red: "How convenient."
Liz: "What's that supposed to mean?"
Red: "You gathering intel that indicates I shouldn't go to a meeting you don't want me to attend."
Liz: "That's not what this is about. Are you listening"
Red: "Where'd you get your information?"
Liz: "I can't tell you."
Red: "Then, no, I'm not listening."
Episode 5x19

Liz: "Tom died for a reason. You know why, and you won't tell me!"
Red: "I won't tell you something that's none of your business. It was none of Tom's business. You may feel entitled to know what it is because he died trying to figure out what it was, but you're not. A fact which I have patiently tried to get you to understand. Be hurt. Blame me. Howl at the moon for all I care. But this is my problem, not yours."
Episode 5x19

Liz: "You're right. I am unwilling to accept that I am not entitled to know why my husband died. I am hurt. I do blame you. And pulling this trigger, something I desperately do not want to do, is me howling at the moon! Which is definitely your problem, not mine. Tell the story. Tell it!"
Episode 5x19

Liz: "Tom died so I could know the truth the secret hidden inside that bag. That's still out there."
Red: "Garvey must have hidden it. Now that he's gone, we have to accept the fact that it may never be found."
Liz: "And I'm guessing you have no idea where to find it?"
Red: "It was Jennifer, wasn't it? How you knew that Garvey would betray our agreement and try to kill me at the meet. You knew where she was, and you didn't tell me."
Liz: "She spent most of her life hiding from you. I thought I should honor her request."
Episode 5x20

Red: "You follow me to where you don't belong, watch tapes that are none of your business. You do what you know I don't want you to do. You disappoint me. And yet, somehow, at the same time, you impress me. You persevere."
Liz: "Runs in the family, I guess."
Red: "I suppose it was inevitable. Our sprint to the finish. The bag is just out of reach now. After everything we've been through, it won't be long before one of us has it."
Liz: "No, not one of us. Me."
Red: "What would you say to flying back with me on my jet, enjoying a few hours of peace and quiet before we repair to our neutral corners?"
Liz: "I'd say that's a very generous offer."
Red: "Yes, it would be, if I was to offer that. Which I'm not. Goodbye, Elizabeth. I'll be waiting at the finish line."
Episode 5x21

Red: "An associate recommended him to me after Mr. Kaplan passed."
Liz: "She did not "pass." She killed herself so I could get the duffel bag. It was her dying wish. Feel free to honor it."

— s e a s o n . six —

Red: "Our professional relationship is symbiotic. I help you, you help me."
Liz: "And our personal relationship?"
Red: "I don't have an alternate agenda. I have secrets like the skeleton. I thought you'd come to terms with that."
Liz: "I have. Which is why I'm not upset at finding you here. It's still hard, you're my father. I want us to have an honest relationship."
Red: "One has nothing to do with the other. Being honest means one doesn't lie, deceive, or cheat. Where you are concerned, I don't."
Liz: "How can you say that when you keep things from me?"
Episode 6x01

Red: "This wasn't an accident. My luck didn't just run out. Someone tipped them. Someone close."
Liz: "What makes you think that?"
Red: "The cops were tipped off. Not specifically about me. That would've triggered a larger presence, and I would've noticed. Whoever did this told the cops as little as possible. Something about a middle-aged white male carrying a concealed weapon, something a couple of cops could follow up on quietly, discreetly."
Liz: "Do you have any idea who it was?"
Red: "That's what I need your help to find out. Forget about the prosecutor and all this. I've been a step ahead of them for decades. I'm confident this won't change that."
Liz: "How can you say that?"
Red: "I need to find the person who betrayed me."
Liz: "So you can kill him?"
Red: " I'd say that depends."
Episode 6x02

Red: "Getting caught after 30 years? The odds were, I'd be caught after three. It's no one's fault, least of all yours. Besides, I welcome the vim and vigor of prison life, the law of the jungle. I am the lion, after all."
Liz: "You don't look like one. I need to talk to the warden, get you out of general population."
Red: "That's a terrible idea."
Liz: "Okay, then since you insist on representing yourself also a terrible idea why not petition the court for protective custody?"
Red: "Elizabeth, I'm the one who petitioned to be put into the general population. I need to be treated like the criminal I am. Anything that may hint at any involvement with your Task Force is a liability I can't afford."
Episode 6x04

Liz: "The gun's been admitted. They'll throw out your immunity."
Red: "I was set up."
Liz: "What are you talking about?"
Red: "There's a recording of the person who tipped off the cops."
Liz: "Have you heard it?"
Red: "What goes on in court... yeah, there are rules, people play their parts. Your enemies are known. It's a fair fight. And despite losing today, it's only just begun."
Liz: "Have you heard the recording?"
Red: "No. But I intend to. And when I do, I'll know who betrayed me. And at that moment, no matter where I am, on the street, in solitary confinement, or on the receiving end of a firing squad. At that moment, whoever set me up, his fate will be sealed.
Episode 6x05

Liz: "I want to help you, but I can't if you don't tell me what it is you're doing."
Red: "I'm fighting for my life. And you are helping more than you know."
Liz: "Why can't you just be honest with me?"
Red: "You remind me so much of your mother. I don't remember if I've ever told you that before, have I?"
Liz: "There are a lot of things you haven't told me."
Red: "I'm here because someone betrayed me, someone close. Under the circumstances, it's hard to know who to trust."
Episode 6x07

Liz: "Why now? Today of all days?"
Red: "Because I'm innocent."
Liz: "And he can prove it. How?"
Red: "The explanation will be obvious once you've found him. But as my trial begins within the hour, I'd appreciate it if you would investigate now and ask questions later."
Liz: "You say this Minister D can prove your innocence. Can he also prove who's guilty?"
Red: "Yes."
Liz: "So you know who the real traitor is?"
Red: "Someone I trusted. As is the traitor who turned me in to the police."
Liz: "Have you found out who that is yet?"
Red: "Someone close. Traitors always are."
Episode 6x09

Liz: "I don't know how I can feel so relieved and so pissed off at the same time."
Red: "Don't judge her too harshly."
Liz: "I don't think I could judge her harshly enough. Whoever you are today, whatever you've become it's because of the lies she told."
Red: "She was between a rock and a hard place."
Liz: "That's no excuse for framing someone for a crime they didn't commit."
Red: "It's easy to think that now. Back then things were complicated."
Liz: "I grew up believing Raymond Reddington was a traitor."
Red: "Well, now you know the truth."
Liz: "I know a truth."
Red: "You know that your parents loved you very much. And that's the only truth that matters."
Episode 6x09

Red: "Agent Keen, you're a criminal profiler, are you not? Top of your class at Quantico?"
Liz: "I was fifteenth in a class of two hundred."
Red: "You've been trained to think like a criminal."
Liz: "By the very best."
Red: "Profile me."
Liz: "You're a fugitive. You live a fugitive's existence. Fleeting. Transient. Impermanent. Almost exclusively, this is how you interact with the world in short, brief, passing encounters. I say almost because this is not how you interact with me. With me, you are enduring, permanent. The world thinks you're bad because you've done some terrible things. But I believe you're good in spite of the terrible things you've done. And I know that you're not here today because of those terrible things. You're here today because of love. Love brought you out of the shadows. Love put you on the street corner where you were caught. And not just the love of a father for his daughter, but the love of doing what you believe is right. And not necessarily for yourself, but what's right for the greater world around us. A world you love so much."
Episode 6x10

Liz: "This is what you call a last meal? Cabbage soup and herring."
Red: "My mother made it for me when I was a child."
Liz: "I can't imagine that. You as a boy."
Red: "I was a difficult child. People saw me one way I saw myself another. I felt misunderstood, acted out. My father fancied himself a disciplinarian. Very moralistic. Instead of trying to understand me, he excommunicated me."
Liz: "And your mother?"
Red: "My mother.. My mother understood."
Liz: "About who you used to be there's something I need to ask you."
Red: "My mother understood the problems of the human heart in conflict with itself. So she understood Everything. I've taught you to think like a criminal. I should've taught you to think like her. I-I should've learned to think like her. All those years spent worrying about you, fancying myself your guardian angel, she would've taken one look at you and known you'd be fine. And not because of the money I obsessively cobbled together for you but because you have in your life the only thing that matters people who love you. People you can depend on. People who will always tell you the truth. Six years ago, I turned myself in because of you. Now, here, at the end, I'm at peace because of them.
Episode 6x11

Liz: "I love you. That's what I wanted to say. That's what I wanted you to hear."
Episode 6x11

Liz: "You're going to ask him if he turned you in to the police. He didn't. I did. I asked him not to say anything. It's not his fault. It's mine."
Red: "No, it's mine. I knew it was you as soon as I found out you were looking for Dr. Koehler's nurse."
Liz: "You knew that.."
Red: "One day I'm captured the next, you're looking for someone who knows I was once someone else? I knew that wasn't a coincidence, but I let my hopes convince me that you'd never betray me like that. That neither of you would."
Liz: "If I'd known what was gonna happen.."
Red: "That they'd put me on trial, sentence me to death? That surprised you?
Liz: "No! The only thing I knew is, you aren't who you say you are."
Red: "And you think you deserve to know the truth. That you're entitled to that? That entitlement justified risking my life?"
Liz: "I thought it justified anything, yes. But I don't anymore."
Red: "And why is that?"
Liz: "Because you almost died. Because I came face-to-face with losing you, and I realized that I don't care about who you were I care for who you are. And that's the only thing that matters. You have to believe me."
Red: "I'm not sure I'll ever believe you again."
Episode 6x18

Liz: "I know the truth. Your real identity. I know who you are."
Red: "Take a look at the door. You see Chuck? You know who you don't see? Dembe. You know why? Because your hunt for the truth mine, by the way, not yours cost me my relationship with him."
Liz: "If that's the case, I'm sorry, but it's gonna be okay. I know it will, especially because you've got nothing to disagree about anymore. I know you're Ilya and the incredible thing you did to protect my mother. To protect me."
Red: "Who told you this?"
Liz: "Dom. I know about him, too, that he's my grandfather. I know everything the facts, anyway. Of course, I have like a thousand questions."
Red: "You and me both."
Episode 6x19

Liz: "Are you upset?"
Red: "Conflicted. I live and work by a very strict code built on loyalty, justice, trust. I survive because I eliminate those who betray it. Up until now, no one has been spared, not even my closest associates. Not even Kate Kaplan."
Liz: "So that's what you're conflicted about? Whether or not to kill me because I betrayed some code?"
Red: ''You can mock it because you live in a world with institutionalized codes, where order has already been imposed by powerful forces outside of yourself, where there are laws and rules for everything. I live in a world with no laws, no rules, and certainly no order. So I have to impose my own. I'm not conflicted about killing you. I'm conflicted because I can't. Because I can neither kill nor trust nor forgive."
Episode 6x20

Liz: "You won't stay angry with me. I know you think you will, but you won't. Parents don't stay angry with their children. Or their grandchildren. And that's who you are to us. It doesn't matter who you were. This is who you are and who you'll always be."
Red: "Because you believe love wins?"
Liz: "Every day and twice on Sundays. Says so on the greeting card. When I was little, did you train me for everything you knew I'd have to face?"
Red: "If you're asking whether it was a surprise that you became an FBI agent, the answer is no."
Liz: "I want to know what you did for me so I can do the same thing for Agnes. To train her for everything I know she'll have to face."
Red: "Sam did what I told him to. Will Scottie do the same for you?"
Liz: "She won't have to."
Red: "She will if Agnes is to get what she needs."
Liz: "I left Agnes with Scottie because I was afraid of who you were. But I'm not anymore. Scottie won't have to train Agnes. Because Agnes won't be with her. I'm bringing her home."
Episode 6x20

Red: "Your mother can't hurt you."
Liz: "Because she's dead? The Russians don't seem to think so. When Ressler was trying to help me find out who you were, he went looking for her and was confronted by the KGB about what he found out. What if I bring Agnes back and they're right and she's alive and she finds us? And she's more of a threat to Agnes than you ever were?
Red: "Your mother was not as bad as I understand why you might think she was, but she wasn't. She was a young woman trying to make sense of a world that was falling apart around her. She was on one side of an unbridgeable divide. Your father was on the other. And you were in between. Over the years, your mother's legend has grown. Mythic spy. Bloodless turncoat. In the process, people forgot the person behind the legend, but I haven't. If she were here, I'm sure she'd tell you she made so many mistakes. She was scared and uncertain and just trying to do the best she could. Bring Agnes home, Elizabeth."
Liz: "If there's any risk.."
Red: "There isn't. Bring her home."

Liz: "Those questions you don't want asked, well, I'm gonna ask them anyway. Why don't we start with who did this."
Red: "Not now, Elizabeth."
Liz: "Yes, now. Someone out there thinks Katarina Rostova is still alive, and clearly they think you know more than you're saying. Who grabbed you in Paris? Who tortured you? Why is my grandfather dying in a lumberyard? My question is, what the hell happened?"
Liz: "You did."
Red: "You and Agent Ressler."
Liz: "Excuse me?"
Red: "How many times have I told you? Leave it alone. I warned you. Even saying the name Katarina Rostova has consequences, and now you see. Now you see what that name will make others do. These questions of yours have gotten their attention, and now they will crawl out of whatever hole they were in and they will hurt whomever they must just on the chance, just on the notion that she might still be alive. "What happened?" Elizabeth. You raised an old ghost, and that's why your grandfather is dying in a lumberyard."
Episode 7x02

Liz: "I didn't realize you two were close."
Red: "I've known Dom a long time. Most of it's been unpleasant. Still, something happens when you've when you've known someone that long, when, after all of life's twists and turns you look over and there they are, still in it with you, still yours."
Liz: "I'm sorry my questions caused all this. But they are questions I deserve answers to. Maybe not now. Now it's too dangerous. But someday, I'm going to insist on answers. And you're going to have to give them to me."
Red: "When he gets better, you should bring Agnes to meet him."
Episode 7x02

Red: "So you have been threatened."
Liz: "Was he looking for my mother?"
Red: "He was. Before I shot him."
Liz: "The woman in Paris. If you won't tell me her name, just tell me this. If we find her, will it end?"
Red: "That is our best hope."
Episode 7x09

Red: "I think dining in the dark probably does enhance the senses."
Liz: "Is annoyance a sense?"
Episode 7x09

Red: "Somewhere you need to be?"
Liz: "I'm expecting a call."
Red: "A personal one, I hope. I'm sure it's been difficult since Tom. But you have Agnes now. You should be looking forward, not back. You deserve a bigger life."
Episode 7x09

Red: "All I know is Aram told me she'd been living in your building, feigning kindness, watching Agnes. But it's over. She's dead."
Liz: "W-What? How?"
Red: "Gunned down in the street less than an hour ago."
Liz: "How do you know?"
Red: "I saw it happen. Two heavily armed assets. They took her body because they came for a bounty."
Liz: "She's dead."
Red: "She is. Elizabeth, go get Agnes. Take her home."
Episode 7x10

Liz: "Was the woman from Paris my mother?"
Red: "A kindly woman comes into your life and takes an interest in you and your child. It’s only natural for you to make that wish."
Liz: "Was it her?"
Red: "I know you don’t want it to be true, Elizabeth, but your mother is gone."
Episode 7x11

Red: "Much like your desire for the woman in Paris to be your mother blinded you to the fact that she wasn’t."
Liz: "It wasn’t just my desire."
Red: "So she told you she was Katarina?"
Liz: "She did. And it’s difficult for me to believe she wasn’t."
Red: "I was convinced my casket was authentic. It was nearly impossible for me to believe it wasn’t. But it was a fake. And she was, too."
Episode 7x11

Liz: "You know, you were right when you recently told me that, um, it’s been difficult since Tom, but that I have Agnes, and I should be looking forward and not back."
Red:"And that you deserve a bigger life."
Liz: "I agree. I do. But so do you."
Red: "I don’t know how to do that."
Liz: "That makes two of us."
Red: "You should get back."
Liz: "Thanks again for coming. It means a lot."
Red:"To me, too."
Liz: "We may not have bigger lives, but we have each other."
Episode 7x12

Liz: "What did you do?"
Red: "I acted on my conviction and principle."
Liz: "Cooper says we blur the line between right and wrong so often, we can't see it clearly anymore. I know I can't."
Red: "I disagree. I find you increasingly clear-eyed. I'm sorry that the Task Force had to take sides today, but it meant a great deal to me to know you were on mine."
Episode 5x17

Red: "To being on the same side."
Liz: "At long last."
Episode 7x15

Red:"If it’s important to you, then it’s important to me."
Liz: "You’re sure you don’t mind?"
Red: "Of course not. That’s what’s so nice about us finally being on the same side of things, same agenda. No subterfuge. What you want, I want."
Episode 7x16

Red: "As soon as the transition is complete."
Liz: "What transition?"
Red: "Of assets. From me to you. I think it’s almost time."
Liz: "Yeah, that’s not happening."
Red: "There are quite a few people to be taken care of. Dembe and others. It’s a fairly substantial list, but arrangements have been made. Protocols put in place.

Liz: "Of a criminal empire? I’m an FBI agent!"

Liz: "You won't tell me the truth."
Red: "But I'm trying to tell you, this is not my fault. Do you understand? This is not my f... It's not... [collapses] It's not my... It's... [coughs] It's not... It's not.."
