On a sailboat, surrounded by sea with no land in sight, without even the possibility of sighting land for days to come?
To stand at the helm of your destiny. I want that, one more time. I want to be in the Piazza del Campo in Siena.
To feel the surge as 10 racehorses go thundering by. I want another meal in Paris, at L'Ambroisie, at the Place des Vosges.
I want another bottle of wine. And then another. I want the warmth of a woman and a cool set of sheets. One more night of jazz at the Vanguard.
I want to stand on the summits and smoke Cubans and feel the sun on my face for as long as I can. Walk on the Wall again. Climb the Tower. Ride the River. Stare at the Frescos.
I want to sit in the garden and read one more good book. Most of all I want to sleep. I want to sleep like I slept when I was a boy. Give me that, just one time.
That's why I won't allow that punk out there to get the best of me, let alone the last of me."
Episode 1x09



Ressler: "What are you gonna do? Are you gonna kill me? You just saved my life."
Red: "Circumstances have changed Donald.
If you can't save her, you are of no use to me whatsoever. Look at me! Agent Keen will die. Now is the time."
Episode 1x10



Red: "Donald, I understand how you feel. Beneath the iron and rustic exterior beats the heart of a man swimming in immeasurable grief.
I am truly sorry about Audrey. There are few that understand love and loss more than I."
Ressler: "I'm glad you understand where is he?"
Red: "Let me tell you something that someone much wiser than I told me in a similar moment in my life. Go home. Turn back from his and go home.
It may seem like the hardest thing in the world but it is profoundly easier than what you are contemplating."
Ressler: "I'm not turning back."
Episode 1x16



Red: "Agent Ressler, once you cross over there are things in the darkness
that can keep your heart from ever feeling the light again.'
Ressler: "All I feel is hate."
Episode 1x16



Red: "Donald, I want you to know that I do understand how you feel.
There is nothing that can take the pain away. But eventually, you will find a way to live with it.
There will be nightmares.
And every day when you wake up it will be the first thing you think about, until one day it will be the second thing."
Episode 1x16



Quotes season 2 ღ

Red: "Agent Keen is late."
Ressler: "She is having room service. Are you in the dog house?
Red: "That's a shame. She is gonna miss the most delicious baklava."
Episode 2x11



Red: "Well, giving your new entourage I gather you may need my help to attend."
Ressler: "Actually, I think we got that covered."
Episode 2x11



Ressler: "I'm coming with you."
Red: "No you are not."
Ressler: "She is my partner. You might need a hand from this side of the law to clear her name."
Red: "You open your mouth Donald and hay flies out. You look and feel and smell like a cop.
You are what you are. It's admirable but this is my world and you're a tourist.
You blink wrong and we are both dead and your partner goes to prison."
Ressler: "I'll keep my mouth shut and stay out of the way."

The reasons

Because Red saved Ressler's life.
Because no one makes fun of Ressler like Red does.
Because no one knows more about love and loss than Red and Ressler.
Because they both protect Liz with everything they got.
Because they learned to respect each other.



Our wishlist
- Flashbacks to the time when Ressler was still hunting Red.
- Red praising Ressler to somebody else.
- Another teasing scene between the two of them.
- Red and Ressler having to pretend father and son in an undercover operation.
- Red and Ressler saving Liz together

TFTNT Miranda! :flowers:

I love our OP and thread title. :thumbs_up:

You're welcome! I am still in love with this OP. :love:

L i N d $ @ y 05-13-2015 11:57 PM

Here's to S3 and for more Donald/Red moments. :fingers_crossed:

Miranda 05-14-2015 11:08 AM

I am all with you Lindsay! :fingers_crossed:

Lauren Helen Graham 05-14-2015 11:34 AM

It's really crazy that we've reached the third thread about the two of them already although we barely get scenes lately... I really set all my hopes up for season 3!

Since I still think that the task force will no longer exist in season 3 I'm wondering if Ressler will hunt down Red again. :look:

One Thing Remains 05-14-2015 04:58 PM

Why do you think the task force won't exist Kris? I think it will. Maybe not by the first episode, but I think it will be pieced together soon afterwards

Miranda 05-16-2015 01:36 PM

I don't think the task force will end. and I don't think it would make sense for Ressler to go hunt Red again. Red has helped them so much and yes he also did a lot wrong but I think Ressler has made peace with the fact that he never caught Red.

One Thing Remains 05-18-2015 12:36 AM

I just hope that eventually Liz and Red are allowed back into the task force. I don't think the show will be the same without the task force searching for the people on Red's blacklist

sunshinedan 05-18-2015 01:28 AM

Red and Ressler had great dynamic in season one.I like their chemistry.
Unforturnately, the relationship has not been continued to explore in S2.They shared a few scenes.
Ressler is going to hunt down Red again, the dynamic will be back:D I look forward how the relationship evolves.

Lauren Helen Graham 05-18-2015 10:19 AM

I think the show will start a completely different course from now on. :look: Don't get me wrong but how is a former FBI agent supposed to get back into working with the FBI? I don't see that coming at all. And Red, I guess his time as informant will be over as well since Lizzie isn't there anymore to work with him for the task force and because Cooper is no longer the director. He trusted Cooper and I'm not sure on how happy Red will be that Ressler will start hunting Liz down.

The task force might still exist but its purpose will be completely different.

Sunshinedan, I as well think that the task of the task force will be to hunt down Red and Liz. :nod: I'm sure the Cabal will have some influence in that as well... So yeah, the Red/Ressler dynamic will be back and I really look forward to see that.

Miranda 05-18-2015 12:56 PM

Red will not like the fact that Ressler is going to hunt them down but I think we will understand. He has grown fond of Ressler and I do believe that Red respects Ressler and respects that Ressler needs to do hi job.

I think there will be a lot of twists and turns next season. Maybe Liz and Red can get back in the FBI and the task force for who knows what reason. Maybe it won't be as back as we think it will be but honestly I really don't know what we can expect.

I wonder if we will see flashbacks for Ressler hunting Red all those years ago now that Ressler is going to hunt him down again.

One Thing Remains 05-18-2015 07:45 PM

I think Red was able to avoid Ressler before so I am sure he can again.

Plus I don't think Ressler will be as enthusiastic about hunting down Red this time. I doubt arresting Liz and putting her behind bars sets well with him.
