This is an unreasonable amount of fidget spinners. Seth, these aren't even a thing anymore.

Emily

Since I've transitioned, I've been able to pass. I lived stealth. It's easier for me -- easier at least compared to other people.

Sasha

Seth: You guys have to swear not to repeat what I just said. If Harper finds out that I told you before the "we narrowly avoided genocide" presser tomorrow, he'll kill me. Like, murder me dead.
Isabel: Doesn't sound like he's the only one who wants you dead. Or us dead.
Seth: You might've had a chance. You're more of a coffee and two creams than either of us.
Isabel: Hey Puerto Ricans have a long history of being the targets of genocidal experiments. Read about it.
Dontae: I'm a black gay man. Pretty sure that trumps everything.
Seth: People think I'm a Muslim terrorist trying to do them harm. Going through airport security is a bitch.
Dontae: Like when I walk into a store and spend more than 15 seconds browsing?
Isabel: But guys, didn't you hear? This is what a post-racial society looks like.
Seth: We're all screwed.

What am I supposed to say? "I'm sorry for bringing a contributing member of society into our country that's filled with natural-born, entitled assholes who take their citizenship and privilege for granted?"

Aaron

Tom: Emily.
Emily: Yes sir.
Tom: I need you to draft two statements. One if Aaron stays on the ticket, and one if he goes. While you're at it, draft your own resignation letter. I'll let you know if I need it later. Go.

Momberg's plan doesn't target anyone in this room except me. And from where I stand, I'm sorry, sir, I can't help but wonder if maybe it's easier taking a chance on someone's life when they don't look like you.

Seth

Mom, I know you might be ready, but I'm not. Not yet.

Emily

The leadership that this country needs is one that respects differences, not one that demonizes them. That's why I'm proud to be Tom Kirkman's running mate. That's why I'm a proud Mexican-American. A proud Latino and a proud Rivera.

Aaron

Lorraine I'm connecting the dots here, but did you just quarterback us out of a nuclear crisis?

What the fuck is happening in the Situation Room?

Lorraine

Isabel: All these people, Lorraine, and the media they look at you and see how they can use you. But I see you. I see a piece of myself in you. I'm so fucking proud of you. I love you so much.
Aaron: Jesus, I'm such a fucking asshole.
Isabel: Hey you're putting way too much pressure on yourself.
Aaron: I slept with Emily. It was a mistake, and I hate myself for doing this. Believe me, I hate myself. But I have to take responsibility for this as well.

Seth: Son of a bitch, motherfucker, piece of shit cunt! Sorry.
Lorraine: I wouldn't change a word.

Designated Survivor Season 3 Quotes

Kirkman [on TV]: The system is broken, and you people broke it!
Kirkman: Wow. I really screwed that up, didn't I?

Why are there so many goddamn televisions in this goddamn place?
