Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.2013

John Garrett:
I'll say it again. Best bet to save her - use the ventilation system to get above the sit room. Drop down using Fitz's sweet, little mouse hole, and put two bullets through Victoria Hand's heart.

Leo Fitz:
Yeah, it's an option, sir.

Phil Coulson:
Without questioning?

John Garrett:
Questioning what? Whether she wants to kill us fast or slow?

Phil Coulson:
Last time we did that, we shot the wrong man.

John Garrett:
Because she wanted us to! Phil, this is a battle for S.H.I.E.L.D.'s soul, and we're on the front lines. History will remember us this day.

Phil Coulson:
That's right. It's for S.H.I.E.L.D.'s soul. And murder without consideration is a sure...

John Garrett:
"Consideration"? Consider this. She had one of my men killed with a bomb rigged to his gas pedal. The other two were floating in the hotel pool, and they weren't doing the backstroke.

Melinda May:
But we can just as easily ice her.

John Garrett:
You don't put someone like her on ice. She had Skye shot in the stomach - in the stomach - because she was curious. Mike Peterson - burned alive and turned into some kind of freak. She tortured you, using the same machine she used to brainwash that b*tch in the flower dress. And right now, she's probably doing the same to Agent Simmons. Oh, I've considered it, my friend.

Leo Fitz:
No. Simmons will be fine.

John Garrett:
Just being realistic, kid.
