Season 1 [edit]

Pilot [edit]


Dennis Ryland: It's changed course!
Diana Skouris: That's impossible! Comets don't just change course.
Dennis Ryland: Well, this one has.
Diana Skouris: Then it's not a comet.

Diana Skouris: It's as if it was coming in for a landing!
unknown: Landing? Like a plane?
unknown: No. More like a mothership!

Lily Moore: Lily.
Richard Tyler: My friend, her name was Lily, too. Lily Bonham.
Lily: That's my grandmother's name!

Heidi Moore: Can I help you?
Lily: Heidi!
Heidi: Yeah?
Lily: Heidi, it's Mommy!
Heidi: Who?!

Maia Rutledge: You don't have to worry, Crownridge is nice.

The New & Improved Carl Morrissey [edit]

Dennis Ryland: For instance, yesterday Maia was talking to an employee in the cafeteria. She told her that her daughter would be in the hospital soon, but that she'd be okay. The next day the little girl was in a car accident.
Diana Skouris: So you're saying what? That she's got some kind of second sight?
Dennis: I'm saying I have five stories just like that.

Lily Moore: I know what the baby's thinking.

Carl Morrissey: What I'm doing here, I'm doing for us, Grace! This is where we live. I just want us to be happy and not be afraid anymore, and it starts with Bradley Park!

Becoming [edit]

Maia: Yeah, school might be fun. Diana, you're not going to like what's in there.

Oliver Knox: Look, I know how tempting the math is on this murder, I disappear in '83, the killings stop, here I am and the poor girl is dead.

Shrink: Why don't you start with something easy, tell me something about your parents.
Richard Tyler: My parents?

Lily Moore: They use to argue about money a lot, but that was before they split up.
Shrink: They divorced?
Lily: Yeah. I was 14.
Shrink: Do you remember how that made you feel?

Shawn Farrell: Depressed, I don't know, angry maybe.

Richard: They're gone. Got a few cousins outside St. Louis who'll remember me as a picture in an old photo album.

Unknown: Beautiful, aren't they? I wonder if that's where we were.
Shawn: What's everybody doing here?
Unknown: What are you doing here?
Shawn: I don't know, just wanted to see where we came back, I figured it'd be a good place to come and think, you know, clear my head.
Unknown: Most people come for the conversation.
Shawn: Well there's not a lot of that going on.

Jordan Collier: Well what can I do for you this afternoon, Lily '93. Don't worry, it's not a line, though I do have to say that you're the most attractive abductee I've seen this afternoon.

Unknown: Who's this?
Oliver: Let me tell you something about her, her name's Felicia and she works over at the barn on Cliff Street.

Dennis Ryland: Don't you hide behind freedom of the press, what you do isn't journalism, it's shouting fire in a crowded theater and you're gonna stop before the stampede begins.

Marco Pacella: Yeah, but we know Adam Kensington's company was perpetrating a massive fraud on the public, and now we've learned that since Carl Morrisey's death his neighbors have formed a watch committee thats helping to protect Bradley Park. Anyone starting to see a pattern?
Diana: What, you're talking about some kind of ripple effect?
Marco: Diana Skouris to the head of the class!
Diana: The incidents themselves are just catalyst for change, a positive one in these two cases.

Season 2 [edit]

Mommy's Bosses [edit]

Kevin Burkhoff: I spent six years in a mental institution suffering from paranoid schizophrenia and you pulled me out of it into the middle of a conspiracy!

Season 3 [edit]

Blink [edit]

Mitch Baldwin: I know I'm not perfect.
Tom: You're not even alive.

The Starzl Mutation [edit]

Claudio Borghi: I have to offer you a word of caution. The cigar. When you smoke it, you might be surpised by its effects.
Shawn: Oh, I'm not going to get arrested for having this, am I?

Dennis Ryland: Whoever controls Promicine has a strategic advantage over the rest of the world.

The Gospel According to Collier [edit]

Tom: You disappeared. Do you have any idea where you've been?
Jordan: Everywhere. I have been everywhere. I've been alive for hundreds of years, maybe thousands.

Diana: We can't do this.
Ben: We just did.

Terrible Swift Sword [edit]

Jordan Collier: The war for the future will be fought in the past.

Shawn: Alright, I'll ask the question. What are we gonna do with 17,432 units of Promicin?
Jordan: We're going to give it away.
Richard: To whom?
Jordan: To everyone.

Fifty-Fifty [edit]

Tom: This isn't just a plan. It's a revolution. You realize that, don't you? Handing out promicin like candy changes everything, Shawn. Nobody will be able to enforce the law. It'll be chaos!
Diana: Nobody can predict what's gonna happen once people everywhere start developing abilities!
Tom: You need to tell us where he's keeping this stuff.
Shawn: I don't get you guys. All along you've been saying we're on the same side, no matter what our differences are. That our goals are the same; for things to change, get better. Now a man is back from the dead to show us how to get there, and you two wanna stop him. You know what? You can't! Our phone lines have been jammed up all morning. People are dyin to know how they can get their hands on the shot.
Tom: So what do you tell them?
Shawn: I tell them that we have nothing to do with it. And then I wish them good luck.



Tess: It's not hard for me, I've believed in you all along. Theres a reason why we were taken and a reason they woke you up. It's incredible — you should be getting the Nobel Prize. Instead we're hiding like criminals.
Kevin: It won't be like this forever. Soon we'll be heroes!

Jordan: Look, Richard, we need people to start developing abilities.



Dennis Ryland: I'm not at all surprised that girl died. That's exactly why we need to get the stuff out of Colliers hands.
Tom: We need to know about your promicin supply, Dennis. Your people have been working with it for months. Have you ever seen anything like this?
Dennis Ryland: We've had some casualties among the volunteers.
Tom: Casualties?[pauses and looks around in disbelief] How many?
Dennis Ryland: We recruited 20 men for the program. Half of them rejected the promicin within 48 hours of their first shot.
Diana: Rejected? You mean died.
Dennis Ryland: We knew there'd be risks, Diana. We explained it to the volunteers before the signed on.
Diana: Oh my God. You knew. You knew what would happen when people took this? Why didn't you tell us when it was stolen? We could have warned Collier, warned the public.
Dennis Ryland: Beacuse gods don't make mistakes. What better way to show the people that Collier is not some sort of messiah, than have him fall flat on his face in public?
Tom: You kept quiet so you could discredit Collier? A woman is dead, Dennis! And you're just as responsible as he is!
Dennis Ryland: She shouldn't have been injecting stolen promicin. And anybody who follows her lead will have to live with the consequences. Or not.



Isabelle: It was a balance of power thing. I was sent to eliminate the 4400!

Homeless Man: (To the audience) How about you? Fifty-fifty. You want the shot?
