John Reese:
Where's the machine now?

Harold Finch:
What, the drives? Who knows? Government facility somewhere. But the machine? [Looks at a nearby camera] The machine is everywhere. Watching us with 10,000 eyes. Listening with a million ears.

John Reese:
You gave yourself a way to communicate with it?

Harold Finch:
I was building the government a tool of unimaginable power. I thought maybe an off switch would come in handy. So I built myself a back door into it.

John Reese:
To access the irrelevant list.

Harold Finch:
Just a social security number.If anyone ever found out, I'd lose access so... nine digits, that's all we get.

John Reese:
And we have no idea why it picked Diane Hansen.

Harold Finch:
It wouldn't be steering us toward her if it wasn't seeing *something*.

John Reese:
But I don't know if I can protect Hansen. I can't see the whole picture.

Harold Finch:
I offered you a job, Mr. Reese. I never said it would be easy.
