• [first lines] 

  Mellie Grant : I can't be here. I shouldn't be here. I am out of the White House. The press could see me. I am risking everything. Everything.

  Olivia Pope : We are all risking everything.

  Verna Thornton : Would you rather we met inside the White House? Does that feel less like a felony to you?

  Olivia Pope : Secret service is outside that door. Please do not shout the word "felony" in this room.

• Verna Thornton : Oh, crap. I can't bend over to put my damned shoes on. Stuff like this, like what we did... It never really goes away, does it? It's just one big, bloody hospital gown.

  Olivia Pope : [bending down to her shoes]  I prefer to think that anything can be fixed.

  Verna Thornton : Then you're a fool.

• Olivia Pope : I don't like it when the bad guys get away.

  Cyrus Beene : Then you shouldn't have come to Washington.

• Abby Whelan : So I did a little digging, and it turns out that Cytron, they weren't just an Internet security company. They also developed software, some of which had various applications, like this one program that Quinn's boyfriend was working on. Officially it was used as slot machines.

  David Rosen : And unofficially?

  Abby Whelan : Voting machines. I know you just got your job back, David, and I wasn't gonna say anything, I swear.

  David Rosen : No, you did the right thing. Come here.

  [hugs her] 

  Abby Whelan : [same conversation played-back on a computer]  I know you just got your job back, David, and I wasn't gonna say anything, I swear.

  David Rosen : No, you did the right thing. Come here.

  Technician : And so on and so forth. You want me to notify the others?

  Olivia Pope : No. This one I handle alone...
