Zane Donovan quotes from Eureka

Zane

I thought maybe we could, you know, we could have a bite?

Jo

A bite? What, we wouldn't want to have you commit to a whole meal.

Jo

[holding a canister] Hey, could you come here for a second?

Zane

Why? So you can hit me with that?

Jo

Not until you tell me what it is first.

Jo

God, what if I have to go to the bathroom?

Zane

Why do you think I'm working so fast? I had four cups of coffee this morning.

Jo

Another five minutes and I would have chewed off my own leg!

Zane

Your mouth is probably big enough.

It's fascinating, you know, you've created a problem so big the solution is to detonate an atomic bomb.

Zane

I know, right? How cool is that?

Jo

Hey, um, after that call, if you um, maybe wanna go for a, a break-up dinner?

Zane

No. [long pause] How about a, a make-up dinner instead?

Jo

Guess it's not so bad being stuck together.

Zane

Careful. My girlfriend might see you. (Moves Jo's hands) Oh, uh, hey, Jo. Awkward.

Jo

I will show you awkward. (kisses him again)

Zoe

You okay, Fargo?

Fargo

Yeah! Just, uh, thinking...

Zoe

About making out with Jo?

Jo

Okay, has everyone gone nuts?

Zane

(entering sheriff's office) That's what I'd like to know.

Jo

(distracted) Hi.

Zane

"Hi"? Uh, that's all you have to say?

Jo

Uh, what do you expect me to say?

Zane

"Sorry for getting wasted and making out with Fargo"?

Larry

Oooh, you made out with Fargo?

Jo

No! Okay you-

Zane

Aaah, kinda.

Zane

Jo?

Fargo

Uh-oh.

Zane

Fargo!

Fargo

You wanna dance? Let's dance! But just so you know, in high school, I took a semester of shoto-con!

Zane

(sighs) Fargo. I don't want to fight you. I'm worried about Jo.

Fargo

Oh.

Zane

One second, she's acting normal, and then the next, she's kissing you.

Fargo

Yeah, well maybe she's finally come to her senses?

Zane

You just talked to her, didn't she seem different to you?

Fargo

Uh, well, she...kinda just asked me out.

Zane

And that didn't strike you as odd?

Jo

Zane! Thank God you're here.

Zane

Julia, right? Allison told me what you did to Jo.

Jo

No. She's Julia Golden. And I'm Jo.

Zane

Ah, psych ward. I'm Henry.

Jo

I can prove it. Ask me something personal that only Jo could know.

Zane

(slightly uncomfortable) Ah, pet peeves.

Jo

Small guns, big egos... and overly-critical boyfriends.

Zane

Um, boxers or briefs?

Jo

Me or you?

Zane

Funny. Me.

Jo

Boxers. Except on laundry day, which... by my count, would be tomorrow.

Zane

(still unconvinced) First date?

Jo

Sunday brunch at Cafe Diem. (Zane moves closer) I was nervous. You brought a rose. I wore a sundress. You said something smart... which made me feel dumb... But you made up for it on our second date.

Zane

So... Does that mean I sounded dumb, or I made you feel smart?

Jo

A little bit of both.

Zane

And how'd the date end?

Jo

Let me give you a reminder. (kisses him)

Zane

That's my Josefina.

Jo

(hits him) Now get me out of here before I taser you for kissing another woman.

Zane

Yep, definitely Jo.

Jo

Hey.

Zane

You had me worried there.

Jo

How do I look?

Zane

Perfect.

Zane

All checked out.

Jo

I was really worried about you.

Zane

Me too.

Jo

How are you feeling?

Zane

You tell me. (they kiss) Any sparks?

Jo

No. (they laugh) Just the good kind.

Jo

(fluffing Zane's pillows angrily) Why is it that every guy I date ends up in this infirmary?

Zane

'Cause you're bad luck, obviously.

Jo

A joke. At my expense. Glad to have you back. (moves to the other side of the bed and continues to attack the pillows)

Zane

Suspected me? Of what?

Jo

Well, Taggart got frozen I... and he and I... used... to... like, you know...

Zane

Really. Huh, you thought I loved you that much.

Zane

(getting out of the infirmary bed, looks down) You seen my pants?

Zane

What's that?

Taggart

It's her first day, trying to keep her in a positive frame of mind. (Tess thumbs-up back)

Zane

Oh. That's nice of you. Is it working?

Taggart

Yeah, I think so.

Tess

(on other side of glass, cheerfully) We are so screwed.

Zane

Bite me Lupo!

Jo

Don't tempt me.
