Quotes 

• [Agent Weller asks Dr. Borden if his father could have been telling the truth about murdering Taylor Shaw] 

  Kurt Weller : He said something right before he passed. A confession. It doesn't make any sense. He seemed... so lucid. But what he was saying... What happens to the mind as it's dying? Is it possible that he...

  Dr. Robert Borden : Well, it's possible that your father was delusional, that, as his brain and body were shutting down, his synapses were firing in such a way as to make him see or say things that weren't real. That's certainly very common. Or... he could have been telling you the truth. Honestly, Kurt, if anyone could judge on whether or not your father was lucid, it would probably be you. So what does your gut tell you?

• [in flashback, Agent Weller sees his conversation with Agent Patterson on whether Jane is Taylor Shaw or not] 

  Patterson : She was born in Africa.

  Kurt Weller : No, she was born in Pennsylvania. I was there the day they brought her home.

  Patterson : The DNA results directly contradict the isotope test.

  Kurt Weller : Is she Taylor Shaw or not?

• [Agent Weller and Sarah Weller fight about their father killing Taylor Shaw] 

  Sarah Weller : Why would he bury her in our backyard?

  Kurt Weller : His shoes were muddy that night.

  Sarah Weller : If you kill a girl, you don't bury her in your own backyard!

  Kurt Weller : If that's what you've done, if that's really the kind of person that you are, there's no telling what else you might do.

• [Agent Weller and Sarah Weller talk while driving back to their childhood home] 

  Kurt Weller : Jane remembers fishing in Anderson creek. Her DNA matches Taylor's. Dad was on a lot of morphine, so... Maybe his mind was playing tricks on him. Or... Maybe mine was.

  Sarah Weller : Kurt, I know you. Okay, you're just gonna keep turning this over in your head for the rest of your life. It's gonna affect your relationship with me, Sawyer, Taylor. We need to see what's under that fort.

• [Agent Weller calls and leaves Jane Doe a voice mail] 

  Kurt Weller : I gotta tell you. My, uh... My father died last night. I wanted to tell you, because, um... Because...

  Kurt Weller : [Weller chuckles]  I don't know, uh... No, I do know why. When things happen to me in my life... you're the first person I think about. And you always have been. I guess...

  Kurt Weller : [Weller sniffles]  I just wanted to hear your voice. Hear you... tell me everything's gonna be okay. I'm really glad you're back in my life, Taylor. I, um...

  Kurt Weller : [Weller chuckles, clearing his throat]  Just, um... Just call me back. Bye.

• [Agent Weller shows Jane Doe Taylor Shaw's favorite doll] 

  Jane Doe : [Weller drops the doll on the table]  What is that?

  Kurt Weller : It was Taylor's. It was her favorite doll. She took it everywhere. She couldn't sleep without it. So he buried her with it.

  Jane Doe : What?

  Kurt Weller : He buried her with it, Jane. My father... killed Taylor Shaw, 25 years ago. He told me, right before he died. So... if Taylor Shaw is dead...

  Kurt Weller : [Weller cocks his gun]  Then who the hell are you?

• [Agent Weller holds his gun on Jane Doe and begins to read Jane her rights] 

  Kurt Weller : Turn around, get on your knees, and put your hands on your head.

  Jane Doe : [Jane holds her hands up]  I can explain.

  Kurt Weller : You have the right to remain silent.

  Jane Doe : [Jane starts to tear up]  Kurt...

  Kurt Weller : Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.

  Jane Doe : [Jane starts to cry]  No, don't do this.

  Kurt Weller : You have the right to an Attorney.

  Jane Doe : [Jane tries pleading with Kurt]  You need to listen to me.

  Kurt Weller : You said you remembered! You remembered what? Fishing? Camping with us? How? You lied to me. I let my father back into my life... into my home. I let him be around Sawyer! He killed her. And I let him back in... because of you. So turn around... get on your knees... put your hands on your head. I'm not gonna say it again. Do it.

  Kurt Weller : [Jane continues crying while getting to her knees]  Put your hands on your head.

• [last lines] 

  Jane Doe : [Agent Weller holds Jane Doe up in handcuffs and tells her she's under arrest]  Kurt, please.

  Kurt Weller : It's over. Whatever this is, whatever it was about... it's finished.

  Jane Doe : [Jane cries]  But...

  Kurt Weller : Jane Doe... you're under arrest.
