- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: This is a Colt .45 1911. I can strip and reassemble this weapon in well under two minutes.
- Aram Mojtabai: Mr. Reddington, please.
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: Once I have it reassembled, I'm gonna reload the mag and if, at that time, your task remains incomplete, I'm gonna empty that mag into your head.
- Aram Mojtabai: That's really messed up.
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: Don't look so stricken. The first shot will kill you.
- Raymond 'Red' Reddington: [to the wife of a business acquaintance he has just shot] Janice, if you don't stop your yammering, I'm gonna have to shoot through this door. Which will be a shame, because I won't have any idea what I'm shooting at.
