Lou George: Charlie Blunt

Quotes 

• Charlie Blunt : Look, most IRS agents get threats. It's the nature of our business.

  Kevin Ryan : Did Mrs. DeWinter report any recently?

  Charlie Blunt : No.

  Javier Esposito : Are you sure?

  Charlie Blunt : You have to understand, Clara was a rare breed; an IRS agent who actually liked her job.

  Kevin Ryan : What's that have to do with her being threatened?

  Charlie Blunt : [lowering his voice]  The thing is each threat requires an investigation, which is a headache for upstairs. It's an unwritten rule that agents that report threats don't fare well on performance reviews.

  Javier Esposito : Well, that unwritten rule may have gotten her killed.
