The Element of Surprise [1.03]
[edit]- Jules: Ready, Sam?
- Sam: I've cleared bad guys before.
- Jules: It's serving a warrant for the search of the gentlemen's premises for the highly corroborated presence of narcotics.
- Sam: Speed, surprise, and aggressive action.
- Jules: [to Sam] All right, I'm not trying to flatter myself, I know you're just being nice, I don't want to read into this. I've just worked way too hard to be here, to screw it up by getting personal. It's not worth it. There's like five-hundred cops waiting to get into the SRU. Five hundred guys waiting for me to do something I shouldn't.
He Knows His Brother [1.07]
[edit]- [Sam is sipping coffee and reading the paper while watching everyone else clean up the storage lockers]
- Jules: What are you doing here, anyway?
- Wordy: [annoyed] 'Cause you just had to bring it up?
- Sam: Well, Constable Callaghan, that would be because yesterday I got—
- Everyone in unison: Tightest grouping at both long range and short range firearm practice.
- Sam: Meaning you get to do monthly cleanup, and I get to do this. [returns to reading his paper] Missed a spot there, Ed.
- Lou: What's your problem?
- Spike: Woods. My people don't like 'em.
- Lou: Your people? From Woodbridge?
- Spike: No. Romans. Three times we fought in the forest against the Huns. Didn't go so good okay.
- Sam: You'll be saving him by bringing him in. Or you're going to spend the rest of your life wondering what might have happened if you just tried.
Clean Hands [2.03]
[edit]- Sam: You obviously don't wanna hurt anyone, except—
- Walter: Well, the plan's changed. Can't afford to be so considerate anymore.
- Sam: [looks at Walter] Infantry? Air force? Come on, not navy, please.
- Walter: [nods] You?
- Sam: Special forces.
- Walter: That figures. Jumps on a grenade. Tell all the ladies what a superhero you are?
- Sam: Yeah, infantry spend all your time bitching about special forces.
Coming to You Live [2.14]
[edit]- Spike:CJV Electronics. CJV was busted a couple of years ago. They were selling pirated operating systems.
- Sam:How do you know that?
- Spike:I know because I'm a highly-trained officer on the cutting edge of twenty-first century investigation.
- Sam:I thought it was because you're a geek.
- Ed: He's not a geek, okay? He's a geek with combat skills, that's why the ladies love him. [Jules smiles in response.]
Fault Lines [3.13]
[edit]- Dr. Larry Toth: Now some word association...
- Jules: Stream of consciousness.

- Dr. Larry Toth: You started without me.
- Jules: Try to keep up.
Personal Effects [4.01]
[edit]- Jules: Did you get a chance to see what was in the locker?
- Private Jordan: No.
- Sam: Maybe there was something the brother didn't want you to see.
- Spike: [Spike and Wordy approach from behind] You can get him out of school and ask him.
- Jules: What do you mean?
- Spike: The late Richard Devlin does have a brother named Shane, he's eleven years old.
- Jules: What?
- Wordy: Our guy's an impostor.
- Sam: And he went through a hell of a lot of trouble to get his hands on that locker.
We Take Care of Our Own [5.08]
[edit]- Sam: [after Jules tells him her pregnancy is confirmed] Here, here, here, have a seat, have a seat.
- Jules: [chuckles] I can sit.
- Sam: Do you want me to get you a tea? Like an herbal tea or somethin'?
- Jules: I don't need an herbal tea, I can sit, and you're not allowed to do that, treat me like I need bubble wrap or something. I'm the same, okay? I don't want you to change on me. Everything is the same.
- [Sam is trying to talk down veteran Robert Gray, who rigged himself with explosives]
- Sam: Today, my teammates spoke to a lot of people who think you're a great man.
- Gray: They're wrong. I'm just doing my job.
- Sam: That's what sergeants always say.
- Gray: You serve?
- Sam: Yes, sir. I never met a sergeant who didn't impress me. Today, you gotta lead by example. Don't put your team at risk. Let's end this.
