S1 E15Unfinished Business

You know, some people, when they read the paper, they relax. They're off the clock.

ACAugust Corbin

My clock has its own schedule.

Two hundred and fifty years, huh? Civil War didn't wake you? Noisy neighbors to the south. Did you get up to pee? Don't know about you, but I'm getting up to pee every seventy-five, eighty years.

Are you quite finished? Because most of what you say is unintelligible gibberish to me. It's like watching a chicken cluck.  And, when did it become acceptable for ladies to wear trousers?

Surviving death, separated by time, tests the bonds of love. The moment I saw her, I knew the bravest love is born again with each new day.

YNYolanda, NorthStar Assistance

[in tears now] Thank you for calling NorthStar Assistance.

An officer of the law with a criminal past. Imagine the delinquency we could perpetrate if we really put our minds to it.

  [to Abbie]  I've lived on borrowed time; more than any man deserves.  I've seen wonders beyond my wildest imaginings.  And through these centuries, against the impossibility that we would find each other, we did.  And I am most grateful for it.

ABAndy Brooks

  Rumors of my demise have been…pretty much true.
