Amita Ramanujan quotes from Numb3rs

Amita Ramanujan

I got it! I stole his mojo bag!

Charlie Eppes

[to Megan and Colby via phone] She just stole his mojo.

Amita Ramanujan

If we had a DTMF decoder ... that's a Dual-tone multi-frequency. It's touchtone.

David Sinclair

Why couldn't you have just said that to begin with?

Amita Ramanujan

Yeah, but it wouldn't have been as much fun.

Amita Ramanujan

Charlie, you really can't be too careful.

Charlie Eppes

You're wrong. This is proof right here you can be too careful.

David Sinclair

What's the deal with the waffles, man?

Amita Ramanujan

I think it's Charlie's way of saying that your family is whoever you want to eat waffles with.

Dr. Larry Fleinhardt

That's a worthy sentiment.

Megan Reeves

And one that's even better with syrup.

Dr. Larry Fleinhardt

When I'm stuck, I've always found the work pattern of a certain Englishman to be inspirational.

Amita Ramanujan

Sir Isaac Newton?

Dr. Larry Fleinhardt

No, Sherlock Holmes.

David Sinclair

I hate to break this up, but I was about to pass out from the marker fumes.

Amita Ramanujan

Ah, yes, that would be the lemon. I told you it was too much.

Charlie Eppes

[sniffing the pen] I like it.

David Sinclair

It smells like a urinal cake.

Amita Ramanujan

I didn't say it was rational, it just feels weird.

Charlie Eppes

My Dad knows you spend the night. That's never been weird.

Alan Eppes

Well, it's weird now, thank you very much.

Charlie

You know, the LAPD is a fascinating organization; they invented SWAT, they invented community policing, the DARE program...

Not to mention Joe Friday

Amita

Oh yeah, he's from Dragnet, right?

Charlie

Yeah, and you know, his badge number, 714? It's been retired, no officer can wear it.

That's odd, that's the same number stamped on US-made Quaalude tablets.

It's not really relevant how I know that

Amita Ramanujan

Imagine Alan in high school. Hanging out by the bike rags, snapping towels in the shower.

Charlie Eppes

Thanks for the shower image.

Amita Ramanujan

[about two usernames never being online at the same time] It's like Superman and Clark Kent, never at the same place at the same time.

Charlie Eppes

The same person.

Charlie Eppes

My first day at CalSci, I stood in this office, and Biederman sat right there and he gave me the onceover and asked: "Are you the Boygenius that everybody says you are?"

Amita Ramanujan

And now Biederman is retired and you are the man... oh, pardon me... the Mangenuis!

Don

Dang. Nice digs. (chuckling) Well, I don't understand. Dad said it was like a disaster, like my room when I was 15.

Charlie

He was right, by the way. Um, no, Amita came by today and did all this. It's nice of her.

Don

You've definitely arrived, kid.

Charlie

Yeah. I've arrived. Don't know how long I'm set to stay.

Don

What are you talking about? You've been working for this your whole life.

Charlie

Yeah. My destiny. What if my future has changed, you know? What if it's not being an academic?

Don

What, you mean the FBI stuff? You don't seem to have a problem doing both.

Charlie

It's become increasingly difficult for me to be here in this bubble lecturing about set theory, knowing that there are real lives at risk, that there are real lives being lost out there.

Don

You know, Charlie, I've seen a lot of good agents burn out. You know, guys that just don't want to go home because they're afraid they'll miss something. What is... ( shuts scanner off ) I don't know about the whole destiny thing. You've had it pounded into your head since you were a kid. Why don't you just... do what you want on any given day? Okay? Just live a little.

Charlie

I don't know.

Don

Yeah, well, I do.

Amita

Hey. Am I interrupting something?

Don

No, I was just, uh, heading out, actually.

Amita

Good. 'Cause I need Charlie.

Don

All right. Congratulations. Uh, this is nicer than my apartment. See you later.

Charlie Eppes

You know what this whole year made crystal clear to me? You have no idea what your life's gonna look like in 5 years from now... or one year from now... or a week. It all turns on a dime... and the things that matter... you don't wanna turn around and realise you've lost... while you were waiting. You know I love you so much...

Amita Ramanujan

I love you too!

Charlie Eppes

[goes down on one knee] Amita... will you marry me?

Amita Ramanujan

[comes into Charlie's office, closes the door and kisses him] This ring's got a funny effect on me.

Charlie Eppes

You closed the door.

Amita Ramanujan

Yes, I did.

Charlie Eppes

Did you lock the door? [Larry comes in]

Charlie Eppes

[talking about how they can trace a car by it's sound] Now, all we have to do is filter out L.A.'s other 11.999.999 cars.

Amita Ramanujan

And a little luck wouldn't hurt.
