"because they can't meet with women."
Madam Secretary
"So, all we have to do is find an agent"
Madam Secretary
"who looks like this archaeologist,"
Madam Secretary
"who speaks perfect French,"
Madam Secretary
"and then somehow convince these extremists"
Madam Secretary
"that they should violate their religion"
Madam Secretary
"and meet her face-to-face so she can set up the op."
Madam Secretary
"But, yeah, once we do all that,"

Madam Secretary
"what he's up to until it's too late."
Madam Secretary
"Won't the press expose him?"
Madam Secretary
"- No, they do whatever he tells them to do. - He controls it."

Madam Secretary
"You're pretty high risk."
Madam Secretary
"I have connections to passionate collectors"
Madam Secretary
"from many different worlds."
Madam Secretary
"Did the reliquary contain the relics of St. Augustine?"
Madam Secretary
"It was only the outside the buyer was interested in."
