“You can’t have him. Make no mistake about that. I will walk out of here right now.”
“You’ve got a bull’s eye on your back, you need our help. You came to us.”
“The target’s there because someone didn’t do their job. You don’t get to destroy Neal Caffrey as payment for your fuck-up.”
“Destroy? That rather a harsh word, Commander.”
“It’s not ‘Commander’ – it’s ‘Agent’ – you kicked me out, remember? And yes, what you’re proposing will absolutely destroy Neal.”
“You mean, destroy your cozy little ménage a trois.”
“I meant exactly what I said. Neal will jump at your offer – because it’s exciting, it will feed into his love of adventure – to run a long con with official sanction, until he realizes just what it means. That he'll have to kill. Then he’ll freak, he’ll run and you won’t even bother to bring him in.”
“I think we’ll let Mr. Caffrey make his own choice in this matter, it isn’t yours to make for him.”
“Let me ask you this – sixteen years ago, you ‘requested’ that I stand down from active duty because top brass suddenly didn’t like that I was bisexual. Now you want to recruit my lover, my partner. My husband?”
“Times change, Commander. Mistakes were made. You got a scholarship to Harvard out of us. You could have spent ten years in a military prison, instead.”
“I doubt that – I fucked Pavel Czerny at Command’s direct orders – I had a sexual affair with a man for the good of my country. That would have made for a very interesting court martial. Now, get Czerny off my back – whatever you have to do. And stay away from Neal Caffrey.”
“You’re in no position to make threats, Commander.”
“I wouldn’t be too sure of that.”

And Peter is right. That WOULD destroy Neal. though I want to think he's smart enough to know that. Or would be, if SOMEONE hadn't put him in a state of mind where running away might seem like a good idea.
