General Beckman’s quote “…you are our only hope.”, followed by static and then a repeat of the quote, is similar to the video that Princess Leia stores on R2-D2 for Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars.

Quotes

Jeff: It’s like my dream come true. Ellie is exactly like Chuck, but with lady parts.

Stephen: Son, your brain is working fine so far, right? Who wouldn’t be paranoid in your shoes? Your cover’s blown, your secret base discovered, your dead partner and girlfriend’s ex-lover was a double agent.
Chuck: Way to talk me down, Dad.

Ellie: I need to hear you say it. I need to know that there’s a reason that you left us.
Stephen: It’s a long story. I want to tell everything but I’ve got to take care of this first, okay? (He hugs her) This is the last time I’m going to walk away from you. I promise. I love you, baby.

Ellie: Morgan Grimes, the boy that took my pillow as his date to Junior Prom knows more about my family being spies than I do.

Awesome: And you can blame CIA for my bachelor party. Stripper? She was an agent. Told you I didn’t cheat. Faithful.
