You know, I was like you once, Michael. Lived for the job. Eventually, I discovered the job doesn’t love you back.Burn Notice, season 2
“Oh you don’t get it do you?! That’s what he does! He comes to you and he offers you everything. He says… I have no idea what I’m saying.”
- Jeffrey Donovan, Burn Notice season 2 gag reel
“Even before I knew your real name, I loved you. Before I should have, I trusted you. Because I’ve always known your heart. You do what’s right, no matter the cost to you. And I’ve learned that when you love a spy, you have to be willing to make that sacrifice too.
At times your job has made it hard to be with you, but it’s never shaken my faith in you.
I can’t let you ruin anyone’s life to save mine. I have to force you to tell what what you know. If you don’t, you won’t be the man I love. Do the right thing.
I love you, Michael. Forever…”
That Burn Notice ending. That letter. Micheal trying to stop her. The tear. I can’t.
