[seasons 6 and 7 opening]
Michael Westen: [voice-over] My name is Michael Westen. I used to be a spy, until...
voice on phone: [phone rings] We got a burn notice on you. You're blacklisted.
Michael Westen: [whistles]
Michael Westen: [voice-over] When you're burned, you've got nothing: no cash, no credit, no job history. You're stuck in whatever city they decide to dump you in.
Michael Westen: [groggily] Where am I?
Fiona Glenanne: Miami.
Michael Westen: [voice-over] You do whatever work comes your way.
Michael Westen: [snaps fingers, car explodes]
Michael Westen: [voice-over] You rely on anyone who's still talking to you:
Michael Westen: [laughs]
Michael Westen: [voice-over] ... a trigger-happy girlfriend...
Fiona Glenanne: Should we shoot them?
Michael Westen: [voice-over] ... and old friend who used to inform on you to the FBI...
Sam Axe: You know spies: bunch of bitchy little girls.
Michael Westen: [voice-over] ... family, too...
Sam Axe: [phone rings] Hey, is that your mom again?
Michael Westen: [voice-over] ... if you're desperate...
Madeline Westen: Someone needs your help, Michael.
Michael Westen: [voice-over] ... and a down-and-out spy you met along the way.
Jesse Porter: That's how we do it, people.
Michael Westen: [voice-over] Bottom line: as long as you're burned, you're not going anywhere.

Fiona Glenanne: ["Characters Welcome" crossover ad with "White Collar": Fiona takes a gun out of her purse to get her ringing cellphone at a restaurant where she's having lunch with Michael] Ah, damn, I missed it.
FBI Special Agent Peter Burke: You have a permit for that weapon?
Fiona Glenanne: [covers the gun with a napkin] What weapon?
FBI Special Agent Peter Burke: The one right there.
Michael Westen: That's a napkin.
FBI Special Agent Peter Burke: I can literally see it.
Fiona Glenanne: Oh, that's my cellphone.
FBI Special Agent Peter Burke: Well, then what is that?
Fiona Glenanne: My other cellphone.
Michael Westen: She's a big talker.
Fiona Glenanne: Let's just pretend this never...
[a grenade rolls out of her purse]
Fiona Glenanne: ... happened.
FBI Special Agent Peter Burke: Is that a grenade?
Fiona Glenanne: What grenade?
