Quotes 

• Gregory Parker : Look, Eddie, I get the anger. You just found out your best friend is sick.

  Ed Lane : Let's just, let's just drop the psychology, stick to the job.

  Gregory Parker : It's a lot to process.

  Ed Lane : Why didn't you tell me?

  Gregory Parker : Maybe I should have.

  Ed Lane : This is why Team One's on probation. We got Toth reading the transcripts of every call we go on, looking for cracks.

  Gregory Parker : He's not watching you, Eddie, he's watching me. I made a judgment call.

  Ed Lane : Well, maybe you made the wrong call. Because what happened out there, now it's on record, Greg, and now we are all accountable.

• Kevin 'Wordy' Wordsworth : I wanted to be, you know... perfect for you guys. The way you're perfect for me.

  Gregory Parker : Just so you know, Wordy's medications keep his symptoms fully under control. It could be that way for years. So, he's not going anywhere.

  Kevin 'Wordy' Wordsworth : No, boss. I'm a time bomb. A-a month, a year, two years, it doesn't matter. I'm not perfect and you guys need me to be. 'Cause one day, my hands are gonna catch a tremor and your lives are gonna be in 'em. It's not worth the risk.

  Jules Callaghan : But Wordy, which one of us is perfect? You know? We're just people.

  Sam Braddock : I'm not perfect.

  Mike Scarlatti : I'm definitely not perfect, buddy.

  Jules Callaghan : We all have our things, you know? Injuries, whatever it is. But we - we work it through.

  Ed Lane : Wordy, we are still better together than any other six people you can find on the force.

• Gregory Parker : I thought I was doing right by the team.

  Ed Lane : All right, look, I shouldn't have reacted like that.

  Gregory Parker : I should never have kept things from my team leader.

  Ed Lane : Look, me and you, we just have to be on the same page here. No secrets.

  Gregory Parker : No secrets.

  Ed Lane : No secrets.
