You're imaginary friend, Penelope?
Yeah, she's the only girl I know who tells me the truth.
(hurt) Hey!
What? Oh, sorry.

S1 E15Unfinished Business
(Zoe walks into Cal's office unannounced.)
We still have a receptionist here, don't we?
Because of our daughter. Sex was never the problem.
(Zoe lets out a surprised breath.)
Well, you wanted to know why I never cheated on you. What about you?
You would have known. Besides I wanted to kill you. I've never wanted to hurt you.
So, that's it? That's it then? People change and then they move on?
Are you saying that I'm the one that changed?
You left me. You left.
Yeah, I left because of you.
Oh, it's my fault now!
No, I'm saying you should take a hard look at what happened before you start blaming me!
Hey, I saw what happened. I saw what was happening. Yeah, I could see the doubt, I see the doubt when you were standing on the bloody alter!
Everyone has doubts, Cal, everyone! At the altar, with their friends, in the maternity ward, during the very best thing that's ever happened to them But that doesn't mean that it's the only thing that they feel. You know, you saw every doubt, ever fear. By the end, that was all you could see. You couldn't let go of anything.
I was trying to be honest.
Yes, I know. I know. But I can tell you, sweetheart, that there really is such a thing as too much honesty in a marriage.
You'd rather be with someone who doesn't really know you, then?
How about someone who doesn't need to know everything about me? Who I can surprise on his birthday, who doesn't need to point out whenever I'm even remotely attracted to another man.
Someone with his head up his ass?
Someone who doesn't study my eyebrows when I'm standing in a thong.
You really used to be so charming, back before you became God.
(Zoe tells Cal that her boyfriend proposed to her. He's in shock and doesn't say anything. Zoe gathers her things to leave.)
{to Emily) Have a wonderful sweetheart.
(Zoe kisses Emily goodbye and leaves. Emily looks at the still-surprised Cal.)
(to herself) Oh, yeah, it's going to be a blast.
(Looking at a family picture with cal, Emily and Zoe.)
We were happy then. Well, look at the smiles, they're real.
Well, I guess it's good Mom wasn't the only one that was delusional.
Thank you.
(referring to Zoe's engagement) She still thinks she's in love with you.
(softly) What?
I mean, I see what's going on with you two. I always do. I always have.
(Zoe and Cal have slept together. They hear the front door open.)
Who's that?
Mom, I'm home, six whole minutes before curfew! Aren't you proud of me?
That would be our daughter.
'Ooops.
You’ve got your head up your arse.
HCaptain Hoopes
Excuse me?
(enunciating carefully) You’ve got your head up your arse.
HCaptain Hoopes
Great. Mayor brings in a guy to investigate and he's already on your side.
No, he’s got his head up his arse, too.
I cannot believe that you are asking me to cover for you. You’re the one who blew the Hollins case. You lied about it; you’re the reason we’re being sued.
It’s not just about me. If what I did gets out, Lightman is in serious trouble. The investors will bankrupt him and they’ll turn this place into a day spa.
So, I shouldn’t lie to save to save your ass, I should lie to save the company.
Sarcasm aside, yes.
You haven’t been lying long enough for you to be any good at it.
FBFletcher Bellwood
Cal! Good god. Could your posture get any worse? You look like a walking question mark.
How’s tricks at the CIA?
FBFletcher Bellwood
Less amusing since you stopped coming by. I miss your special gift for pissing people off.
KDKarl Dupree
You don’t get it, do you? If this gets out you are both going to get fired. Now, you’re Mr. Ivy League, and you’ll be ok, but Ria, she’s going back to the airport, scanning luggage and taking it from passengers with bad attitudes all day. She has so much more to loose than you that it’s not even funny!
Before you say anything, it was me. I blew up the deal. I went to the SEC, I lied to Foster about it. I still think it was the right thing to do, but no one else was involved. It was just me.
I knew that.
You did?
Yeah. Yeah, I’ve known that all along.
Why didn’t you say anything?
Because I decided to run a test.
What kind of test? (pause) The lawsuit. That was a test. You lied to everyone in the office so you could treat me like a lab rat?
No, no I was testing Torres.
Why?
I could tell she knew what you’d done, I mean, there’s no surprise there, but we have a lot of secrets here, so I wanted to see if she could keep one under pressure.
Are you gonna fire her for not turning me in?
No, I would have fired her if she had. Loyalty is crucial here. But you, on the other hand. What you did is inexcusable, and involving her is selfish, disrespectful, and just plain stupid.
I’ll empty my office.
Nah, you can stay. You can stay, but from now on, you’ll be paid what you’re worth, which is nothing. You’re an unpaid intern. It’s that, or you can leave.
Ooh, you look good in black and blue.
Yeah, well, we're quite a pair.
