Consequences of a New Threat
Jason Bourne
I told you, Christian Dassault is going to get you killed.
Nicky Parsons
We don't have a choice, Jason. It started again. A new program. Iron Hand. It's even worse than before.
Bourne
What's that got to do with me?
Nicky
Because it matters. It matters.
Bourne
Not to me, it doesn't. All that matters is staying alive. You get off the grid, survive.
Nicky
I don't believe that and neither do you. Look at yourself. Look at what you're doing. You can't live like this for much longer.

Privacy versus Security in a Digital Age
Dewey
Our enemies have become much more sophisticated. Gathering metadata is no longer adequate. We need a back-door into your new program and a way past the encryptions...
Aaron Kalloor
And when that's not enough, you'll want something new. You-You don't get it, do you? Privacy is-is-is freedom. I mean, maybe that's something you should think about defending?
Dewey
You little prick. You didn't believe in privacy or freedom when we funded your start-up, turned you into a billionaire.
Aaron
I-I've paid you back many, many, many times over. And I was never comfortable with any of this. I'm out. I'm done selling out our customers.
Dewey
But you would sell out your country. The truth is, we wouldn't be having this conversation if you didn't feel personally at risk. You talk about a free internet, you tell yourself you're saving the world, but all you're doing is making the internet a much more dangerous place, and you're sure as hell making this country much more difficult to defend. And you are sure as hell accountable for that, Aaron. Accountable.

Bringing Bourne Back: A Critical Moment
Heather Lee
I watched Bourne with those files. Desperately looking into his past and... I think he's at a tipping point. If I could get face to face with him. I think I can bring him back in. One attempt. And if it fails, you do what you have to.

Preventing an Imminent Threat

Considering Consequences Before Taking Action
Aaron
This is Dewey.
Baumen
Aaron, it's a message. And maybe we should think about what we're doing before it gets any worse.
Aaron
So you-you think if we give him what he wants, it'll end there?
Baumen
I'm just saying that maybe we should listen.

The Burden of Secrets and Identity
Nicky Parsons
You've tortured yourself for a long time now, Jason. You've tortured yourself for what you've done. You don't know the truth about what they did to you. You need to read those files.
Albert Hirsch, quoted in a report on Bourne
When Bourne broke from the Program, he left behind a key component of his identity. In effect, he left behind his reason to exist. In my estimation Bourne will never find peace out in the cold. Eventually he will reach a tipping point. In those circumstances, if played right Bourne could be brought back into the Program.
Richard Webb
Listen to me, David. I've done something. Something... that came at a cost. One day, you'll understand why.
Aaron Kalloor
When I was starting out, I, ah... I took money to start my company, made a bargain with a guy in a dark suit, and now he's come back to take my soul.

Identity and Sacrifice in Jason Bourne
Dewey
Your father created the program. Didn't have what it takes to make it work, and you did. You always did. That's why you volunteered.
Bourne
I volunteered because I thought our enemies killed him. I volunteered because of a lie.
Dewey
No, you volunteered because of who you are. You volunteered because you are Jason Bourne and not... David Webb.
Dewey
Thirty-two kills, Jason. Every one of em made a difference. People all across this country are safer because of what you did.
Bourne
I'm tr-- I'm trying to find another way.
Dewey
Ha! And how's that working out for you? You're never gonna find any peace. Not until you admit to yourself who you really are. It's time to come in, Jason. It's time to come in...
Bourne
I can't. Not for you.

The Inevitable Resolution of Jason Bourne
Robert Dewey
You're too naive to see the truth, there's no bringing in Bourne. He has to be put down. And you obviously cannot do what has to be done.

A Patriot's Duty to the Agency
Robert Dewey
Jason, your dad was a patriot. He could see the threats that America was facing and, like you, he chose to serve his country out of a profound sense of duty. He would not want to see you harm the Agency. You have to stop this, and you have to stop it now.
