Quotes 

• [a light pole falls over] 

  Lance Hunter : I barely touched it. I swear.

  Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie : Trust me, there is no universe on which I think you did that on your own.

• Jemma Simmons : Skye is my friend. She's different.

  Leo Fitz : Oh, yeah. Like *I* was your friend, and then *I* changed. How did you handle that?

  Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie : Uh, t-the point is, secrets don't help any of us. Skye should have just come clean.

  Leo Fitz : What, and risked being locked up, studied, or who know what else? No, I wouldn't let her.

  Jemma Simmons : Oh, *you* wouldn't let her.

  Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie : We could have handled her in a way that could have kept everybody safe.

  Bobbi Morse : It wasn't fair to us, Fitz. We had a right to know.

  Leo Fitz : A right to know. What - is that the same way that Sif and the Kree had the right to know?

  Lance Hunter : I think the situation is a bit different, mate.

  Leo Fitz : No, you would have done to her exactly what they wanted to.

  Jemma Simmons : You don't know that!

  Leo Fitz : Yes, I do know that! They would - you would - you'd "handle her"! Mack just said! Like, uh... like Skye's something to be locked up in a cage somewhere. We should be protecting her.

  Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie : No, Fitz. *We're* the ones that need the protection from her.

• Phil Coulson : I don't blame you, but I have been thinking about it, and I realized I've been wasting your talents.

  Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie : Sir?

  Phil Coulson : Look, I know you love it under the hood of a car, but... we could really use you out in the field. You're a force to be reckoned with, Mack. Believe me.

  Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie : Okay, but violence isn't really my thing. You know, that alien crap made me into something I'm not.

  Phil Coulson : I know. But have you seen yourself? You're a little bit of a beast all the time.
