Quotes 

• Lucy Preston : I told you, they had other followers. We don't know if killing that boy would've changed anything.

  Garcia Flynn : It could have changed *everything*.

• Garcia Flynn : Chicago World's Fair. That's the very first Ferris wheel, right?

  [Lucy nods] 

  Garcia Flynn : We're not here to burn it down, if that's what you're worried about.

  Lucy Preston : I'm sure you intend to do something equally horrible.

• Lucy Preston : What happened to all the talk about needing me? About us fighting side by side?

  Garcia Flynn : You wrote in here that one day, we would stop Rittenhouse, together. And that day came, and you wouldn't help me. You let Rittenhouse live. I really thought we were gonna do great things. But maybe I was wrong about this journal. Maybe... maybe I was wrong about you.

  Lucy Preston : Maybe you're wrong about a lot of things.

• Garcia Flynn : So, Professor, as you well know, Edison was a paranoid son of a bitch. Didn't trust anyone near his prototypes; except Henry Ford, who was...?

  Lucy Preston : Edison's employee. His chief engineer at the time.

  Garcia Flynn : This afternoon, Edison and Ford are going to meet with their financier, J. P. Morgan. They'll be in a heavily guarded room; very difficult to get into, even for me, even in 1893. But still, before they show up, I'm gonna plant a bomb there.

  Lucy Preston : I'm not going to help you. You'll have to kill me.

• Lucy Preston : I read your classified file.

  Garcia Flynn : Don't believe everything you read.

  Lucy Preston : You saved people in Kosovo. You helped a family in Iraq. You used to care about people. You used to be good. That Rittenhouse killed your family, I believe you. But now you're putting all of us in danger.

• Garcia Flynn : I've sent your friends to the, ah, World's Fair Hotel.

  Lucy Preston : You son of a bitch.

  Garcia Flynn : But the hotel came to be known by another name. What was that again?

  Lucy Preston : The Murder Castle.

  Garcia Flynn : [more to one of his lackeys]  You know, the phrase "serial killer" was not even coined yet when H. H. Holmes, the owner of the Murder Castle, was caught?

  Karl : Is that right?

  Garcia Flynn : The press called him a, uh, "multi-murderer". And the hotel he built was an elaborate death trap. Trap doors, acid vats, torture racks; he'd even dissect them sometimes. But you know all this, Lucy, don't you?

• Lucy Preston : I still need your help. My friends, they're... they're trapped in a hotel with a serial killer.

  Harry Houdini : What's a serial killer?

  Lucy Preston : I'll explain on the way. Come on, we have to go. They're in danger.

  Harry Houdini : We should go to the police.

  Lucy Preston : They'll think I'm crazy.

  Harry Houdini : And I won't?

  Lucy Preston : What you do for a living? Crazy's part of the job, right?
