Quotes
- Carlos (to Taylor): I cannot believe Doc did this. I don't mean that as a dis on you, I mean dumping me like he did.
- Taylor: He needs to work with Kim.
- Carlos: Why can't you work with Kim?
- Taylor: Carlos, this is not my choice.
- Fred (to Yokas): How much longer are these 12-hour shifts going to be?
- Yokas: I don't know. They didn't say.
- Fred: The kids miss you. Emily especially.
- Catherine (to Kim): I didn't know you were back on the payroll with the department.
- Kim: I'm not.
- Catherine: You mean you're going down there every night, and you don't have to?
- Kim: Lots of people are volunteering.
- Catherine: Lots of people haven't been through what you've been through.
- Kim: No, they've been through much worse.
- Catherine: Jimmy's been working every day, then going down there every night. Which means he isn't seeing that much of Joey.
- Kim: I'll stop by this afternoon.
- Catherine: Look, if you want to do something to help, go back to work and help the living instead of digging through that tragic pile of rubble every night.
- Carlos (about people thanking them): You know, I can't get used to this.
- Doc: Yeah, I guess it's nice. People showing their appreciation.
- Carlos: They want to show their appreciation, they could start by paying us more.
- Doc: I think that's more like a city hall thing.
- Carlos: Guy can make a million dollars in one day on Wall Street. You don't see him running into a burning building for $35,000 a year. Vote for a bond measure to up our salaries and leave the signs at home.
- Faith (to Bosco): Charlie's been having nightmares. He wants me to quit. He thinks that I should be doing something else. He brings it up every time that I see him.
- Bosco: Aw, hell, who could blame 'em? I'm thinking about quitting and doing something else.
- Faith: Really?
- Bosco: You haven't thought about it? After all this?
- Faith: Yeah. So, are you?
- Bosco: And let that skinny little bearded bastard think he beat me? Hell no. Give me a parachute and a pistol and drop me in there. I'll shoot him in the head myself.
- Davis (to Taylor): You know, my father died in the line. Um...
- Taylor: Oh, he's missing. We haven't found him yet.
- Davis: Oh, right. Sorry, I didn't...
- Taylor: No, I mean, I know there's not much hope. But you don't know him, he's... strong.
- Davis: I'm gonna get going. You know where to find me if you want to talk or hang out, or... exchange recipes.
- Doc (to Carlos): Kim's coming back to work.
- Carlos: Really?
- Doc: I want her to work with me. I need to keep an eye on her.
- Carlos: What am I supposed to do?
- Doc: Well, Johnson wants Taylor a medic again. Just for a little while. Get her off the squad.
- Carlos: Alex Taylor?
- Doc: Yeah, she's wrung out, man. I mean, with all that's happened and with her father.
- Carlos: We're all beat, so what? I'm supposed to carry her load.
- Doc: Come on, man, she's good. She wouldn't let you carry her load even if you wanted her to.
- Carlos: Wh... What's this about? You just want to get away from me?
- Doc: No.
- Carlos: Two years and then you just dump me off the bus?
- Doc: I'm not dumping you. Kim's been off, she needs help. I'm senior guy, she's gonna ride with me for a while and that's it.
- Carlos: Thanks a lot.
- Faith (to Fred): Thanks.
- Fred: For what?
- Faith: Taking care of the kids and everything. You've been amazing.
- Fred: I've been worried about you.
- Faith: I'm fine.
- Fred: You sure?
- Faith: I'm alive.
