[while Victoria is providing cover with a sniper rifle]

Frank said you wanted me with you.

Yes, I thought it might be nice to have a bit of girl time together. You know, get to know each other. And I-I just wanted to tell you that in all the years I've known Francis... I've never seen him like this. [Sarah smiles] So if you break his heart, I will kill you. And bury your body in the woods.

Wow. Okay.

I was in love with an agent once.

What happened?

Well, I was with MI6, and the relationship wasn't…sanctioned. So when it came to light, my loyalty was questioned, and I was ordered to kill him. It was a test.

What did you do?

I put three bullets in his chest.

[after Frank introduces his girlfriend to his…eccentric CIA buddy]

Wow, this guy's insane.

He believes he was the subject of a government mind-control experiment. As it turns out, he really was given daily doses of LSD for eleven years.

Well, in that case, he looks great.

Fantastic.

Yeah.

[Cooper is called by Frank. during their conversation, Frank's call is traced]

Here's the thing, Cooper: With age...comes a certain perspective. I'd be a liar if I said there wasn't a time when I was exactly like you. Blind ambition, misplaced trust.

Why are you telling me this?

It may help me to decide what to do next.

[Sees the technician tracing the call gesturing for Cooper to keep Frank talking]

Why? What are you thinking about?

Our business is a very hard one. But it was never the...the killing or the stress, the bad pay, that bothered me.

Well, what was it, Frank?

It's how anything that you love...can be taken away from you. It taught me never to care, never to invest. Then I met this woman, Sarah. And now, you have her. Now, I can't think of anything more horrible than to know that your enemies can hurt someone you love. The feeling is almost indescribable.

[The trace is completed. Cooper gets the paper with the call's location. His look turns to horror.]

You still there, Cooper?

...You're at my house!

[Frank's in Cooper's house, watching Cooper's wife and two children play outside, unaware of Frank watching them]

Almost indescribable, isn't it?

Henry, The Records Keeper
[Cooper visits a secret CIA archive to learn about Frank]

Frank Moses was one of the most effective black-ops agents we've ever had. He retired drug lords, terrorists…hell, he toppled governments. Yeah. He was truly gifted.

Why was he retired?

Henry

He got old. Then some government thumb-sucker came along and tagged him RED.

"Red"?

Henry

Yeah. RED, R-E-D. "Retired, Extremely Dangerous."

[Feeling the effects of being drugged]

I may vomit...This is just like Love's Savage Secret.

[showing Frank the scars from being shot]

This was done to me by the love of my life. Now she sits outside my house drinking vodka. When I woke alive, I knew she still loved me. Otherwise it would have been the head. It was big risk for her, but one does crazy things for love.

[to Cooper]

If anything happens to Sarah, I will rip everything you love out of your life and then I'll kill you.
