Pamela: What time are they discharging you today? They are letting you go aren't they, baby? You are ok ? I can leave work early and come bring you home.
Faith: Why did you send me the Indeed job listing for Gaines Investigations in DC ?
Pamela: I just thought it was a good job. For you. Good pay. Better hours. And it's run by two gay men. They're married to Rebel and Reese Malden. You love their music. Working there would give you more time for school too. You haven't registered for this semester.
Faith: I am not leaving the department. I am a cop. How would you like it if I told you to stop being a nurse and an administrator?
Pamela: It's not the same thing. You know it's not. My job is not dangerous. Your job is. It's not just me that thinks that. Your mother does. So does DuBuis. We just love you and want you to be safe.
Faith: If you all love me then back off. And your diet is dangerous but you won't stop that.

Melinda: Need a ride from the hospital, Lane? It's my day off today. We can stop for lunch on the way to your place.
Faith: Sure. Why not? I'm discharged in twenty minutes.

Richard: Nigel, you have been my secretary for six years and I don't know your favorite food.
Nigel: You never asked.
Nigel: Your favorite food is red meat everything. Rare. So rare it looks like an autopsy. Your favorite wine is white. Your favorite snack is jelly beans lol. You hide them in your desk drawer on the left hand side.
Richard: How do you know all this about me and I don't know the same about you? Sarah always said I was useless about relationships. Maybe this, whatever it is, won't work. Maybe we shouldn't.
Nigel: Sarah, your loathsome gold digger ex wife , is a cold selfish self centered bitch. She is more clueless about relationships except for the financial aspect. And you better not be ducking out on this dinner of ours. If you are I'll go to your biggest rival firm and sue you for wrongful termination.
Richard: You wouldn't dare. And I never said I was backing out of anything. I merely am saying I am incompetent at any relationship. Even my own brother can't stand me.
Nigel: Try me. And Spencer doesn't hate you. He actually cares a great deal for you. You are a wonderful lawyer and a great businessman but you suck at observing.
Nigel: Oh and my favorite food is steak. Medium well. Like you I'm a meat and potato man. I like white wine. And my favorite dessert could end up being you.

Joe : Nigel, pop by the restaurant sometime soon and pick up your employment handbook, why don't you? I also was wondering if you could possibly start training a little sooner than two weeks. This place could seriously use your special brand of leadership.
