Quotes 

• Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie : Looks like your creepiness finally works in our favor. Shouldn't be too hard to find your beautiful "Weird Science" sex-bot.

  Holden Radcliffe : That's unfair, Mack. I've never had sex with Aida. We're just good friends.

• Jeffrey Mace : Due to recent events, S.H.I.E.L.D. is on high alert. This is a serious threat we're facing, which is why I've assembled you all here today. It is absolutely critical that we safely dispose of the Darkhold. Phil.

  Phil Coulson : Once the Zephyr's ready, Agents May and Mackenzie will accompany me. We'll transfer the Darkhold to an agent who specializes in making items like this disappear.

  Holden Radcliffe : How's he going to manage that - some sort of magic spell? Right, yeah, probably had your fill of dark-arts jokes, what with that flame-headed demon and all that.

• Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie : This isn't some Johnny 5 we're talking about. This is a bloodthirsty murder-bot on the loose. This thing really killed Nathanson?

  Phil Coulson : Yeah. Question is why.

  Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie : If we catch her, maybe I'm sure we'll get some crazy-ass Roy Batty explanation.

  Melinda May : Maybe Nathanson saw something he wasn't supposed to see.

  Phil Coulson : Guess we won't know till we find Aida.

  Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie : First, maybe lock up the guy who created this mess.

  Holden Radcliffe : Don't - Don't be so quick to judge. Aida's programming was perfect. This is - is clearly the Darkhold's fault.

  Phil Coulson : You're saying reading the Darkhold may have corrupted Aida's programming? Is that even possible.

  Leo Fitz : Technically, no, but we are dealing with a book that can read people's minds and also reveal the hidden secrets of the universe, so...

  Melinda May : I never should have let Aida near that thing.

  Holden Radcliffe : Don't be so hard on yourself, Agent May. I, for one, am glad that Aida read that book. Otherwise, both of you would not be standing her alive at this very moment.

  Alphonso 'Mack' Mackenzie : Well, book or no book, you're still a big, dumb idiot for building that think in the first place.

• Phil Coulson : Aida's basically a walking smart phone, right? If a person loses their phone, they can track it. Why can't we do the same with her?

  Leo Fitz : Yeah, well, normally we can, only Aida's somehow managed to take control of her entire operating system.

  Holden Radcliffe : Which unfortunately includes her tracking program.

  Phil Coulson : Meaning Aida can read her GPS history?

  [Radcliffe nods] 

  Phil Coulson : That's not good. That's bad.

• Phil Coulson : Right now, we need to find Aida, and the first step is to figure out what she wants.

  Holden Radcliffe : Well, that's simple. She wants to live.
