Others

• Ramirez: [voiceover] When I was a child, my mother would tell me a story about how the Devil roams the Earth. Sometimes, she said, he would take human form so he could punish the damned on Earth before claiming their souls. The ones he chose would be gathered together and tortured as he hid amongst them, pretending to be one of them. I always believed my mother was telling me an old wives' tale.
• Ramirez: [voiceover] My mother's story would always begin the same way, with a suicide paving the way for the Devil's arrival. And it would always end with the deaths of all those trapped.
• Ramirez: When he's near, everything goes wrong. Toast falls jelly-side down, children hit tables, and people get hurt.
• Ramirez: [seeing ghostly face on monitor] You see it?
• Lustig: Yeah, look, that's just... That's just grain in the image. That's, you know, it's a mistake. It's like when people see Jesus in a pancake or something.
• Lustig: [Over radio] What did you say?
• Detective Bowden: Any luck with the elevator company?
• Detective Markowitz: They're out of business.
• Detective Bowden: I guess that figures.
• Detective Bowden: An apology note left at the site of a hit and run. My wife and son were killed out on Bethlaham Pike five years ago, but that's OK, because whoever did it is *sorry*. You can tell by the heartfelt apology on the back of a carwash coupon.

[pause]

• Detective Bowden: So no, I don't believe in the Devil. You don't need him, people are bad enough by themselves.
• Business Bureau Clerk: It's not our policy to discuss cases under review.
• Business Bureau Clerk: The line would stretch around the block. The guy was a real scumbag.
