Jack Malone: Well, think about it. He abandons her when she's a kid. He doesn't know how to deal with it. Now he wants to be her best friend. It's classic guilt.
Samantha: Is it guilt or romance? You don't go to Carmine's unless it's valentine's day or you're going to propose.
Jack Malone: How would you know?

[Looking through videos the missing girl made]

[about murdered internet-daters]

Samantha: Got a list for me?
[Eric digs out a folded sheet of notebook paper]
Samantha: Ooh. Very official. Can you get me a bit more background on any of these guys?
Eric Keller: I'll see what we can do.
Samantha: Okay.
[Sam starts to leave, but turns back around]
Samantha: You know... you don't look too bad yourself.

[after talking to a real-estate agent]
Vivian: Buying a dream house, talking about starting a family... Doesn't sound like a guy who was planning to run.
Martin: Want to know the part I heard? This guy felt trapped by his life, and he wanted a clean start.
Vivian: You sound pretty convinced.

[Jack brings in the Joint Terrorism Task Force in about the Arabic doctor]

Jack Malone: Yeah, well, that's my call.
Samantha: You're right, it is your call. But just... think about it. I mean, after this investigation, do you think Anwar will be able to get a job in his field? Forget the CDC. He'll be lucky if the INS renews his VISA.
Jack Malone: It's not my problem. Look, if any of this is making you uncomfortable I can transfer you to another case.
Samantha: [coldly] No. I can manage.
Samantha: Jack, I, um... I think you're making a mistake. I think... that you have jumped the gun bringing in JTTF.

Samantha: Are you wearing a wire?
Vivian: It's not a wire. It's a halter monitor for my heart. I went to see a doctor a while back and he's been running some tests. Look, I'd really appreciate it if you didn't say anything to anyone about this, at least until I find out more about it myself.
[pauses]
Vivian: I mean, even Martin.

[Going through the missing doctor's med books]
Samantha: Neurology, toxicology, virology.
Martin: The study of viruses.
Samantha: Well, that's not odd, considering he's a doctor.
Martin: Here's some light reading: "Dirty Democracy". "How the U.S. Sends Its Blasphemers to Death", "Why Terrorists Keep Picking on the U.S.", "How the U.S. Has Perverted Dozens of Foreign Elections" and much, much more.
Samantha: All by Colin Blume. From Boston.
Martin: A bit inflammatory, no?
Samantha: Last time I checked we still had freedom of the press.
Martin: Look, I'm not condoning censorship but we've got a profile.
Samantha: Yeah, of a Saudi Arabian Doctor. That's all we have.
Martin: Look, profiles aren't flawless but they exist for a reason. I mean, come on, we use them every day.
[Sam picks up another book]
Samantha: Oh, look, Pediatrics. Maybe he's a pedophile too.
Samantha: Neurology, toxicology, virology.

Jack Malone: What's going on, Barry? What are you thinking?
Barry Mashburn: Nothing.
Jack Malone: Come on. It's just you and me. Talk to me.
Barry Mashburn: Of all the things that happened... you know what consumes me the most?
Jack Malone: What?
Barry Mashburn: The last time I saw my wife.
Jack Malone: What happened?
[Barry laughs softly]
Barry Mashburn: Nothing. It was nothing special at all.
Barry Mashburn: Nothing.
Jack Malone: Come on. It's just you and me. Talk to me.

Jack Malone: What?

Jack Malone: What happened?
[Barry laughs softly]
Barry Mashburn: Nothing. It was nothing special at all.
Jack Malone: Are we not talking? Is that, uh, is that what's going on here? You know, it's been two weeks. You still haven't unpacked the boxes at your desk.
[she looks at him]
Jack Malone: What's that for, is that for my benefit?
Vivian: Don't flatter yourself, Jack, please.
Jack Malone: You know what, Viv? I understand that you're upset. Just knock off the whole martyr thing, will you?
Vivian: Me? A martyr? Look who's talking. You walk around with the weight of the world on your shoulders. You know what? As far as I'm concerned, you should be back in Chicago doing what's right for your kids.
Jack Malone: You know what? You want to take a shot at me about my work, that's one thing. But just shut up about my personal life, all right? It's none of your business.
Vivian: Yeah, well, stop bringing your personal life into the workplace, Jack.
Jack Malone: What the hell is that supposed to mean?
Vivian: It means you screwed Samantha and dumped her like garbage. You go back to your wife, but you don't really try and make that work. You recommend me for a job, then you take that back. Then you come along and you say sorry, like I'm supposed to go back as if nothing happened. Well, you know what? You need to take responsibility for the things you do, Jack, and grow up.
[she looks at him]
Jack Malone: What's that for, is that for my benefit?
Vivian: Don't flatter yourself, Jack, please.

Jack Malone: I meant what I said before, Graham. You care about these kids. That's why you took Andy under your wing. He was confused, vulnerable. You were the only one who understood him.
Graham Spaulding: Is that right?
Jack Malone: I think so. But then he turned on you, didn't he? I know how that feels. Know how... painful that can be. You pour yourself into someone - your time, energy, and devotion. You give them everything they need to grow and then they just abandon you.
Graham Spaulding: Are you speaking from experience?
Jack Malone: Sure. You love someone... you make love to someone... you give your life to them and then they don't even look at you.
Graham Spaulding: Is that right?
Jack Malone: I think so. But then he turned on you, didn't he? I know how that feels. Know how... painful that can be. You pour yourself into someone - your time, energy, and devotion. You give them everything they need to grow and then they just abandon you.

[Sam has been shot during a hostage situation]
Barry Mashburn: [to Richard] Where'd you get the gun?
Richard: [points and stutters trying not give Sam away] It was... I-I... it was over there. I don't know. It was there.
Barry Mashburn: [to Richard] You the cop?
Richard: [scoffs] If I was, I'd have taken you out five hours ago.
Barry Mashburn: All right, who's the cop? Huh?
[Barry starts to swing his gun around]

Barry Mashburn: [disbelieving] No way.

[a drop off has turned into a hostage situation, in which Sam is one of the hostages]
Paula Van Doren: What the hell happened, Jack?
Jack Malone: We had a drop go bad. There's a suspect across the street in a bookstore. He's holding about a half a dozen hostages.
Paula Van Doren: And Special Agent Spade is one of these hostages?
Jack Malone: Yes.
Paula Van Doren: Mm-hmm. Have you achieved contact with the suspect?
Jack Malone: [sighs] Not yet.
Paula Van Doren: Then Drummond should step in and be the negotiator on this.
Jack Malone: With all due respect to you and Drummond, I am knee-deep in this. I have background on the suspect. I know a lot about the person he kidnapped. I have tons of experience in hostage negotiation, not to mention the fact that there's one of my agents in that bookstore.
Paula Van Doren: Which is what makes me doubt whether or not you have proper objectivity - particularly because it's... this agent, Jack.
[Martin looks over and appears to be eavesdropping]
Jack Malone: [lowers his voice] Which is exactly why I should do it. Because if she tries to communicate something to me covertly, I am the best one to interpret it. I know her. Drummond doesn't.

[On internet dating]
Jack Malone: This is what I have to look forward to. I'm going to take one of these out. What do you think of this: Uh, Jumpin' Jack Flash. Divorced, two kids, bad knee, grumpy workaholic. It's a pretty good sell, right?
Vivian: My husband's looking better everyday.
Jack Malone: Yeah, I'll bet.

Martin: Is it important that you narrate?
Danny: You know, I'm sorry, I forgot... you can't think and listen at the same time, and...

Maria Malone: When I asked you to move to Chicago, in the back of my mind, I just, I never thought that you would say yes.

Jack Malone: W-what are you talking about?

Jack Malone: There was no way I was going to leave that boy to die.
Paula Van Doren: You made your own bed on this, Jack.)
Jack Malone: You know, I used to think that this job was worth it. Giving up my life, my family, my friends, but today I almost sold my soul, and you know what? Not worth it. Here's my letter of resignation.
[Note: Jack DOES NOT quit his job]

[Holding up a picture of a priest's Little League team]
Vivian: We're going to have to interview every one of these boys.
Danny: Because he's a priest?
Vivian: Because he's a missing priest.
Danny: H-he's a man of god, and he's dying, okay, so show compassion.
Vivian: You know, I want to believe in him, too, but you have got to admit, they have been testing our faith a lot these days.
Danny: I played on a team. The St. Benedict's Dragons.
Vivian: I find it very hard to imagine you in a white communion gown.
Danny: I didn't actually go to church. When I was 13, I got busted shoplifting a flask of rum from a liquor store. The judge gave me two choices: St. Benedict's after-school program or juvie. I figured a couple hours of basketball a day, how bad could it be?
Vivian: And how bad was it?
Danny: Father Orlando kicked my ass. Probably saved my life.

[Two restaurant workers find the ransom money in the dumpster]
Jack Malone: [into mic] Oh, please. Danny, get rid of them.
[Danny takes out ear piece and tucks it into his shirt. He moves from his spot and approaches the two restaurant workers who have opened the bag and start pocketing the money inside]
Danny: Hey. Hey, you want to live to see tomorrow? Don't be playing with my livelihood, you got me?

Jack Malone: What kind of message?
Samantha: Like, maybe I'm just getting back to work, and you're trying to get me out of your hair.
Jack Malone: You are... reading too much into this. You should just take it for what it is: In-flight movie and a little bit of sun... and a chance to interview a convicted felon and a potential murderer. Enjoy.

[Phone conversation]
Barry Mashburn: They're going to turn me into a maniac, aren't they?

Jack Malone: [quietly] What, Barry? What did you want?

Barry Mashburn: T-tell them that-that it... tell the press it-it was an accident and I will-I will... I will release someone else to you. I promise.
Jack Malone: Why not her?
Barry Mashburn: No, no, no. She's my insurance.
Jack Malone: Against what?
Barry Mashburn: So-so that you get moving on my helicopter.
Jack Malone: Look, Barry, Samantha's life is no more important than anyone else's, but she's the one who's been shot.

Martin: What, selling shoes?
Danny: [amused] Shoes, boots, pumps, whatever.
Martin: Sounds good to me.
Danny: Good luck, man.
Martin: Thanks.
Danny: Martin...
[Martin turns around]

[Sam is seeing her therapist]
Samantha: So, you see... when a bullet goes in to the thigh, it can lodge in the fascia. That's the, uh, connective tissue. Mine was a through-and-through, which means the bullet went...
Dr. Lisa Harris: I know what it is.
Samantha: Okay, so to answer your question, getting shot felt very much like someone had taken a jackhammer to my leg. A burning hot jackhammer.
[pauses]
Samantha: And you're staring at me.
Dr. Lisa Harris: Samantha... I asked you what it felt like to be shot, and you described, in quite some detail, the physical experience of being wounded. I'm interested in knowing how it felt in other ways.
Samantha: Oh. Why didn't you say that?
Dr. Lisa Harris: Samantha, you were brought here because you were a hostage in a kidnapping, during which you were shot in the leg with your own gun. You were assigned to desk duty, and as soon as you were allowed back on active, you shot and killed two suspects during an investigation.
Samantha: That was a good shooting.
Dr. Lisa Harris: Yes, I read the report.
Samantha: There's a little girl, a violinist, who is missing. I'm sure you've heard. I could help her a lot more if I was out there doing my job.
Dr. Lisa Harris: Well, right now, this is part of your job. And as our time is up I won't keep you. I have you on for Thursday, 8:00 a.m...
Samantha: I can't do Thursday. But I'll call you.

[Chet is giving Jack a Saints pendant]
Jack Malone: St. Jude.
Chet Collins: Yeah. I got it from a priest about a year ago. I don't know if the man gave it to me because he thought I was a lost or because Sean was lost. Either way...
[whispers]
Chet Collins: I don't need it anymore. But maybe, I thought, you know, maybe you could use it.
Jack Malone: St. Jude.
Chet Collins: Yeah. I got it from a priest about a year ago. I don't know if the man gave it to me because he thought I was a lost or because Sean was lost. Either way...
[whispers]
Chet Collins: I don't need it anymore. But maybe, I thought, you know, maybe you could use it.
[Sam has been put on leave after the shooting]
Martin: Hey, what are you doing here?
Samantha: I forgot something.
[pauses]
Samantha: The kids are all right?
Martin: That's what Roger Daltry says.
Samantha: [smiles] Right. Yeah.
Martin: Get some sleep, will you?
Samantha: Yeah, I just got to... find the thing that I forgot... before.
Martin: Right.
Samantha: Yeah.
Martin: Okay.
Samantha: Goodnight.
Martin: G'Night.
[Martin starts to head for the door]
Samantha: Martin?
[Martin stops and turns around]
Samantha: You know how you said we should get a drink sometime?
Martin: Yeah?
Samantha: I could really use a drink.
Martin: Well... nothing worse than a beautiful woman drinking alone.
Martin: Hey, what are you doing here?
Samantha: I forgot something.
[pauses]
Samantha: The kids are all right?
Martin: That's what Roger Daltry says.
Samantha: [smiles] Right. Yeah.

[Talking about a father-to-be]
Jack Malone: My wife was nuts about all this baby stuff, too. A lot of bedside reading. "Daddy, Who Are"..."Prepping Papa". This guy was really committed.
Samantha: [flatly] Yeah, he's a real saint. Eight-and-a-half months pregnant and she's waiting on him hand and foot.
Jack Malone: She brought him breakfast. He didn't ask her to go downstairs and rotate the tires on his car.
Jack Malone: My wife was nuts about all this baby stuff, too. A lot of bedside reading. "Daddy, Who Are"..."Prepping Papa". This guy was really committed.

[Jack is bargaining with a suspect for the missing boy's location]
Jack Malone: But I tell you what I'm going to do. I'm going to give you fifteen minutes with him, if you tell me where he is.
Graham Spaulding: You'd do that?
Jack Malone: I'll give you fifteen minutes with him... alone. You can do whatever you want.
Graham Spaulding: Fifteen minutes.
Jack Malone: Whatever you want.
Jack Malone: But I tell you what I'm going to do. I'm going to give you fifteen minutes with him, if you tell me where he is.
Graham Spaulding: You'd do that?
Jack Malone: I'll give you fifteen minutes with him... alone. You can do whatever you want.
Graham Spaulding: Fifteen minutes.
Jack Malone: Whatever you want.
[Sydney is the reason Barry's wife died in 9-11]
Jack Malone: Yeah, I have a feeling that as long as his wife was dead and Sydney is alive, it was never going to be enough.
Martin: You know, if this guy did kill Sydney, he's not going to have too much regret about Samantha. I mean, she's just another person who betrayed him.
Jack Malone: Yeah, I have a feeling that as long as his wife was dead and Sydney is alive, it was never going to be enough.
Martin: You know, if this guy did kill Sydney, he's not going to have too much regret about Samantha. I mean, she's just another person who betrayed him.
Danny: Martin, why don't you just ask me what you wanna ask me? Go.
Martin: Look, I know you don't drink...
Danny: Yes. I'm an alcoholic. I haven't had a drink in 7 years, 3 months and 18 days.
Martin: Good for you.
Danny: And not a day goes by when I'm not dying to have a drink, which is why I go to meetings twice a week. You got it?
Martin: Look, I know you don't drink...
Danny: Yes. I'm an alcoholic. I haven't had a drink in 7 years, 3 months and 18 days.
Martin: Good for you.
Danny: And not a day goes by when I'm not dying to have a drink, which is why I go to meetings twice a week. You got it?
[about a missing vet's war medals]
Jack Malone: Distinguished service medal... Bronze Star... Purple Heart... Silver Star... Vietnam Service Medal... Liberation of Kuwait.
Samantha: Are they in order of importance?
Jack Malone: Uh... no. If they were, it would be Silver Star first, then Bronze Star. It appears that they're in chronological order. Maybe the timeline of his career.
Samantha: Well, then I think I know how his career ends. His service pistol's missing.
Jack Malone: Distinguished service medal... Bronze Star... Purple Heart... Silver Star... Vietnam Service Medal... Liberation of Kuwait.

Samantha: Well, then I think I know how his career ends. His service pistol's missing.
[after that last conversation with Barry]
Jack Malone: We're not sending in a doctor, we have to send in the SWAT team.
Paula Van Doren: [softly] Jack, when I asked you if you could keep your objectivity with Spade inside there, you said you could. Now, she said it was an accident. She said it was a through-and-through.
Jack Malone: Yeah, and I think she's not telling the truth. For all we know, he had a gun to her head. We can't take anything she says at face value.
Paula Van Doren: SWAT is the last resort. Now, do your job and negotiate your agent out of there.
Jack Malone: We're not sending in a doctor, we have to send in the SWAT team.
Paula Van Doren: [softly] Jack, when I asked you if you could keep your objectivity with Spade inside there, you said you could. Now, she said it was an accident. She said it was a through-and-through.

Paula Van Doren: SWAT is the last resort. Now, do your job and negotiate your agent out of there.
Martin: [Martin has just found out about Jack and Samantha's past affair] I guess old feelings die hard.
Samantha: They don't die, they just... fade. And then you feel bad that they faded becuase you wonder... you wonder what they meant when you had them.
Martin: Well, I guess if they didn't fade, there... there wouldn't be room for new ones.
[Martin slowly smiles at her, she equally slowly smiles back]
Samantha: No, I guess there wouldn't.
Samantha: They don't die, they just... fade. And then you feel bad that they faded becuase you wonder... you wonder what they meant when you had them.
Martin: Well, I guess if they didn't fade, there... there wouldn't be room for new ones.
[Martin slowly smiles at her, she equally slowly smiles back]
Samantha: No, I guess there wouldn't.
[On the phone with Barry, after Sam's been shot]
Jack Malone: Barry, what's going on in there?
Barry Mashburn: Nothing. Everything's fine.
Jack Malone: Well, I heard a gunshot.
Barry Mashburn: It was an accident. Everyone's fine.
Jack Malone: So nobody's been shot?
Barry Mashburn: No, no, no.
Jack Malone: Well, then, what happened?
[Barry doesn't answer]
Jack Malone: Barry, what happened?
Barry Mashburn: One of the idiots tried to jump me. My gun went off, but it, uh, it-it shot into the floor.
Jack Malone: Okay, okay. Uh. Let me talk to somebody else in there.
Barry Mashburn: What, you don't believe me?
Jack Malone: Well, two minutes ago, you were talking about shooting people.
Barry Mashburn: I-I never said that.
Jack Malone: Yeah, that's what you told Samantha to tell me.
Barry Mashburn: Well, she was just nervous. She-she-she wanted to get out of here.
Jack Malone: Okay, well, let me talk to her.
Barry Mashburn: No! No, you got to take my word for it. I don't want to talk right now.

[about missing con-artist]
Martin: It doesn't seem like you kill somebody for ripping you off on a painting.
Samantha: Certainly not those people. They'd probably just refill your iced tea. You know, it sounds more to me like Whitney knew she was going to get caught, and she ran. I'm driving.
[Sam's cell goes off]
Martin: No, I've seen you drive.
Samantha: I'm driving.
Martin: Oh, where's the airbag?
Samantha: [into phone] Hello? Oh, yeah, look, I'm really sorry about that. I kind of got busy. Yeah, Thursday at seven sounds great. Okay, I'll see you then.
Martin: Hot date?
Samantha: Yeah, with my federally funded therapist.

[Staking out the father of two 'kidnappers']
Martin: Doesn't look like he needs any more money. He's probably just protecting his kids.
Samantha: Yeah, remind me not to have any.
Martin: They don't all turn out to be psychopathic kidnappers, you know.
Samantha: Let me guess - 2.2, white picket fence, golden retriever.
Martin: Yeah, maybe. Something like that.
Samantha: Not for me. Not in this world.
Martin: Doesn't look like he needs any more money. He's probably just protecting his kids.
Samantha: Yeah, remind me not to have any.

[Talking to Barry Mashburn- the man running the hold-up]
Barry Mashburn: No one's hurt.
[pauses]
Barry Mashburn: Yet.
Jack Malone: Does that include Sydney Harrison?
Barry Mashburn: Sydney's safe for now.
Jack Malone: Can you tell me where she is?
Barry Mashburn: She's, uh, she's, uh, she's with my partner.
[Martin listens in on the phone conversation]
Barry Mashburn: You know, but one word from me and she dies. They don't hear from me by midnight, she dies. You understand that?
Jack Malone: Okay, Barry, I got it, I got it. It's good that you've kept your cool.
Barry Mashburn: Yeah, so far.
Jack Malone: Right, 'cause you don't want to hurt anyone, Barry, because if you do, that's when things are going to get difficult.
Barry Mashburn: Oh, yeah, well, things are really peachy right now.
Barry Mashburn: No one's hurt.
[pauses]
Barry Mashburn: Yet.
Jack Malone: Does that include Sydney Harrison?

Barry Mashburn: Oh, yeah, well, things are really peachy right now.
Martin: How do you know the father took her? Maybe they were kidnapped. Maybe he was killed and then she was taken.
Samantha: Even a psychotic pedophile is unlikely to target a girl traveling with an adult male.
Martin: So without any evidence to suggest this guy was dirty you assume, this is a custody thing or incest.
Jack Malone: Careful, Martin, she's got a thing about men.
Samantha: Even a psychotic pedophile is unlikely to target a girl traveling with an adult male.
Martin: So without any evidence to suggest this guy was dirty you assume, this is a custody thing or incest.

Cruz, Mexican Federale: [while driving after Lucy Costin ran away] What sort of Cuban name is "Taylor" anyway?
Danny: You like to tell jokes? I got a joke for you; How many Mexican Federales does it take to keep one American woman in a hotel room?
Cruz, Mexican Federale: Why don't you go back to your country and let us do our jobs?
Danny: You know what, if you could do your job... I would be in my country. Yeah, but unfortunatley I got to come here to do your job...

[Sam's working on the man with two lives case]
Vivian: What are you doing?
Samantha: Trying to figure out who was following our "Prince Charming".
Vivian: Don't judge the guy. It sounds like he was really trapped.
Samantha: It's called divorce. What is with you people?
Vivian: You're taking it a little personally.
Samantha: You go to a lawyer, he draws up the papers, you sign them, you swallow your regret, and you move on.
Vivian: And of course you're speaking from experience.
Vivian: What are you doing?
Samantha: Trying to figure out who was following our "Prince Charming".

[the SWAT Team has just retrieved Richard from the bookstore]
Richard: What the hell did you handcuff me for?
Jack Malone: Standard procedure. For all we know, you could've been an accomplice. We had to check you out.
Richard: W-wait, you're investigating me? While I've been doing the whole time trying to stop the guy?
Martin: And you got one of our agents shot because of it.
Richard: [defensively] Well, maybe, if you guys weren't sitting around here with your thumbs up your asses, we wouldn't have to be in there trying to take the fight...
Martin: Why don't you just settle down, all right?
Jack Malone: Do me a favor? Just tell me how she is.
Richard: [quietly] She's bleeding all over the place. She's going to die in there.
Richard: What the hell did you handcuff me for?

Danny: You know, Martin. I see you and Sam in a place just like this one.
[Martin shakes his head]
Danny: I do. Barbequing out back with the kids, Uncle Danny coming over to shoot some hoops.
Martin: I've seen your hook shot, you better start working on it now.
Danny: I'm unstoppable and you know it.
[Martin shakes his head]
Danny: I do. Barbequing out back with the kids, Uncle Danny coming over to shoot some hoops.

Danny: I'm unstoppable and you know it.
[Looking through office buildings]
Danny: But all we have is an address? Wow, this is some lead. Looks like we're going door to door. I should've brought my bibles.
Samantha: Yeah, I think you're more of an insurance guy. In the meantime, give me the names. I'll, uh, I'll start running them.

[On the phone with Barry Mashburn]
Barry Mashburn: I-I-I don't need anymore false promises.
Jack Malone: What are you talking about? We just started talking. There's no false promises here. What are you talking about?
Barry Mashburn: Let's just say people are liars, Jack.
Jack Malone: Okay, let's just say that people are liars. Let's just say that. But I'm not, okay? You know why I'm not? Because I have to keep my credibility. If I lie, I lose my credibility with you and that's not good, because we have to work this out together. You understand? We have to work this thing out together.
Barry Mashburn: I-I-I don't need anymore false promises.

[Walking up to a missing teacher's apartment]
Danny: This is three. Just two more to go.
Martin: Oh! Why is it that no one in a walkup ever lives on the first two floors?
Danny: Vampires.
Martin: Really?
Danny: Yeah, they have all the lower apartments all to themselves.
Martin: No direct sunlight, right?
Danny: Exactly. Plus, they live to be 106 years old, so the apartments never turn around.

Dr. Lisa Harris: You want to talk to me about Agent Spade?
