Harold Finch:
If you or Sameen or anyone else attempt to intervene with these numbers, you will surely find yourselves dead.

John Reese:
We have to do something.

Harold Finch:
We have no resources, John! The library's gone.

John Reese:
So we'll get another place.

Harold Finch:
Don't you understand? They're always watching! We can't even talk on the telephone. There is no sanctuary. You can't just be the man in the suit. You're a cop now. I'm a professor. That's just the way it is.

John Reese:
We don't need jobs, Harold. We need a purpose.

Harold Finch:
The world has changed, John. I'm sorry. [Passes over Bear's leash] For the time being, I think he'll be happier with you. [Gets up to leave]

John Reese:
Well, if it's not about helping the numbers anymore, then what?

Harold Finch:
It's about survival, John.
