Quotes 

• Nate Heywood : Code 1-3-1! All hands on the bridge!

  Sara Lance : What's going on?

  Mick Rory : Yeah. I gotta get back to "Lord of the Rings".

  Ava Sharpe : You read?

• Sara Lance : This plan can work, and you know it. You just need to trust your gut.

  Ava Sharpe : My gut? You mean the one that was manufactured to factory settings? That's the same gut that eleven other Avas used and got killed?

  Sara Lance : Ava, please. Just trust me.

  Ava Sharpe : You don't understand. This plan breaks every rule in every book, and all I have right now are the rules, okay?

  Sara Lance : You have me.

  Ava Sharpe : [Sara kisses her]  What are you doing?

  Sara Lance : I'm admitting something that could save us both. I love you.

  Ava Sharpe : There is no "me" to love.

• Damien Darhk : That Water totem's gotta be worth something. With all six, you guys might actually have a chance against Mallus.

  Ava Sharpe : You mean the same demon you've been creating anachronisms to release?

  Damien Darhk : That was before I realized what our partnership would cost me.

  Ray Palmer : Nora.

  Damien Darhk : Dies the moment the demon escapes. I know this might rankle you a bit, Sara, but our interests are aligned. We can save Nora and stop Mallus from being freed, together.

  Sara Lance : No.

  Damien Darhk : Excuse me?

  Sara Lance : Rory, kill him.

• Ray Palmer : I know Damien has done terrible things in his past which cannot be forgiven, but I... I know that he loves his daughter. We can't just kil him.

  Sara Lance : He was already dead. Killing him would be repairing an anachronism.

  Rip Hunter : Yeah, so would incarcerating him in the Bureau.

  Ava Sharpe : I agree with Rip. We need to think through this situation rationally.

  Mick Rory : Boss?

  Sara Lance : [after a moment of consideration]  Stand down.

  Damien Darhk : [Mick lowers his heat gun]  I'm glad to see you came to your senses.

  Sara Lance : [leaving]  Think this makes us straight, you're wrong.

• Ava Sharpe : Are you okay?

  Sara Lance : The hardest thing I ever had to do in my life was let Darhk live. And now he's back, and it is taking every ounce of self-control not to kill him. And I keep asking myself "Why?".

  Ava Sharpe : For the good of the mission.

  Sara Lance : "For the good of the mission." Listen to yourself. You sound like some government...

  Ava Sharpe : Clone?

  Sara Lance : I was gonna say "stiff".

• Ava Sharpe : You know, Rip thought I could talk some sense into you, but maybe...

  Sara Lance : Wait. You're here because of Rip? Why would you do anything for that man? Ava, he lied to you. He implanted false memories into your head. He hired actors to pretend to be your parents. I mean, what more is it gonna take to get you to confront him?

  Ava Sharpe : I am prioritizing the mission over my own personal baggage. You and your team should try it sometime.

  Sara Lance : [scoffs]  No, that's not what you're doing. You're covering, because you're afraid of what you might find out.

  Ava Sharpe : What else is there to find out, Sara? I'm one of thousands. I was grown in a lab.

  Sara Lance : There has to be more to the story, Ava, and you deserve to know.

• Rip Hunter : Everything good, Director Sharpe?

  Ava Sharpe : Peachy.

  Rip Hunter : Are we good to transport Mr. Darhk back to the Bureau?

  Sara Lance : No, Rip, we're not.

  Rip Hunter : Where are you going?

  Sara Lance : To go talk to someone who can think straight when the whole world has gone crazy.

• Sara Lance : All right, maybe she'll listen to her dear old dad.

  Damien Darhk : Not anymore. Nora only listens to Mallus now. He's always in her ear.

  Ray Palmer : [getting an idea]  That's it. What if I got inside Nora?

  [seeing Damien's expression] 

  Ray Palmer : Not like that. What if I shrunk down, flew into her ear, and pretended to be Mallus?

  Damien Darhk : Okay, new guy on the team here. Is that a joke plan or a real plan?

  Ava Sharpe : We are so screwed.

• Ava Sharpe : I can't believe that worked.

  Rip Hunter : I can. Sara knows what she's doing. I may have my flaws, but I do know how to pick the best people for the job.

  Ava Sharpe : So why did you pick me?

  Rip Hunter : What? Come on. Brilliant mind, calm demeanor, incredible strength. And, unlike the Legends, you actually follow rules.

• Ava Sharpe : I know I'm a clone, Rip.

  Rip Hunter : I see.

  Ava Sharpe : So why me? Hmm? Of all the clones in 2213, why did you pick me?

  Rip Hunter : You're special.

  Ava Sharpe : So why'd you erase my memory?

  Rip Hunter : I thought it would be easier.

  Ava Sharpe : Easier? Easier for you or easier for me?

  Rip Hunter : Don't lose focus, Ava. You are too critical to this mission.

  Ava Sharpe : Well, the good news if if I die, you can just skip off to 2213 and get yourself another clone.

  [a thought strikes her] 

  Ava Sharpe : Oh, my god. I wasn't even the first one, was I?

• Rip Hunter : We both know how hard it is to find agents as talented as you. And to find one who is also replaceable is invaluable...

  Ava Sharpe : How many?

  [pressing it, wanting an answer] 

  Ava Sharpe : How many?

  Rip Hunter : You're the twelfth.

  Ava Sharpe : The twelfth? So I wasn't even your first choice? Or your second, or...

  Rip Hunter : You don't understand. You are exceptional.

  Ava Sharpe : Don't, Rip. Just don't.

• Ava Sharpe : Are you really suggesting that we allow Mallus to escape because you have a collection of magical stones?

  Sara Lance : Look, we have two choices: we fight Amaya or we fight Mallus. And I know it sounds crazy to let a time demon out, but it's a hell of a lot easier to stomach than turning on a friend.

• Ava Sharpe : [Sara gives Damien the Death totem]  Sara, you can't be serious.

  Sara Lance : Ava, we don't have a choice.

  Ava Sharpe : Our only choice is to stop Amaya and stop the anachronisms. This is insanity.

  Sara Lance : Insane is what we do best, Ava.

  Ava Sharpe : I will not condone this behavior, and the Bureau certainly does not stand behind you. Rip, let's go. We have work to do.

  Rip Hunter : Remember when I told you that we would need the Legends before this was through? Perhaps it is time that we set aside the scalpel and let them be the chainsaw.

  Ava Sharpe : I will consider that your resignation.
