Angela: You should go back to bed.
Reddington: Actually, I was thinking about taking a walk,see how I do.
Angela: When you're feeling up to it, you should try going over the hill in the back. I grew up over there. It's very beautiful.
Reddington: How long ago?
Angela: A few minutes, maybe 10. Who is he? American policeman...
Reddington: ...with the FBI, Yes. Humorless fellow with handsome hair. Fairplay Donald, I wonder what you'd actually do with yourself if one day you finally got your man.
Angela: What does it mean? Are you leaving?
Reddington: How far is it to the Miura Bull Ranch from here?
Angela: It's about an hours drive north and east. Why? What's at the Miura Ranch?
Reddington: It's not what's at the Miura ranch. It's what isn't, which should be.
Angela: It's early.
Reddington: Men will be coming. They always come, and before they come I always go.
Angela: Where?
Reddington: For a walk out back over the hill.
Angela: Take some water.
Reddington: Thank you.
Angela: De Nada.
I'll tell you what's wrong is the three of us wasting time in this room while the most wanted man in the world gets further away by the minute. Agent Ishwood is a ten-year veteran of the Bureau with a sterling record. So if you're building to a point, Mr. Hudson,I suggest you make it now.
Cooper
Nixon: Wait, if you are still working with Reddington, your lead could take us exactly in the wrong direction.
Cooper: Does that mean you're not coming?
With all the things going through my mind...I also thought of Raymond. More than anyone I've ever known, he's always been at peace with death. He says death is inevitable. It will come for us all. And that inevitability robs death entirely of its significance. What matters are the things that are not inevitable. The things we create. The things we find. The left we take when everything in our life is leading us right. How we live. I've always loved him for that.
Dembe
Raymond, a man surrounded by death in so many ways, so passionately committed to embracing life. He could have surrendered a thousand times over But instead, he chooses to rage. To rage against the dying of the light. To rage against the bad guys that would do us all harm. Rage to protect those people he loves. of peace and joy... and fun... ...even though he knows the light is still dying. To live a most passionate life, knowing it will still lead to the same inevitable end... is perhaps the most deeply moving choice one can make.
