James Bond?

No.

Yeah, no, I didn't think so either.

You save all the dirty jobs for yourself.

And this one's got a shrink to prove it.

Yeah, relax, you got the fifth best shot in the country covering your ass.

Ian Edgerton

[relaxes his hand and makes his hands shake] Hey, fourth. You don't wanna ask how I moved up one spot.

William Bradford

You talk a lot about your work, but I want to go a little further. What else is in your life?

Don Eppes

Wha' ... that I'm a workaholic with commitment issues that has a hard time trusting people, isn't enough?

Don Eppes

You were ... actually walking home?

Charlie Eppes

Well, yeah, 'cause once I ... once I got to the road, it was pretty easy.

Don Eppes

I mean, he's eight.

Charlie Eppes

I like walking. You know, that's like ... that's my sport. You got hockey, you got baseball. I walk.

Like ... like speed walking?

Charlie Eppes

No, like normal ... you've never taken a walk?

Don, you have a big ego.

About Liz?

David Sinclair

You asked permission to ask.

Don Eppes

Megan's on a bit of a timeout.

David Sinclair

Again?

Don Eppes

You gotta give up on this one, buddy.

Charlie Eppes

I didn't get where I am by giving up on being right.

You can be a real bastard sometimes.

Don Eppes

Yeah! My shrink said something like that!

This shrink – has he taught you how to say "I was wrong" yet?

Don Eppes

All right, so where is the "I told you so"?

Liz Warner

You made the call you thought was right. It sucks being the boss. But you know what? It's not a democracy.
