Walter: The ride back was invigorating. The turbulence over Ohio was like being in the belly of a seizing whale. I screamed like a little girl.
Astrid: I'm sure that went over well with the rest of the passengers.
Astrid: I'm sure that went over well with the rest of the passengers.

Astrid: Chicken. You're serious?

Walter: I can't lose him again.

Astrid: Walter, I've got the results of the blood sample from the book.
Walter: Oh. [chuckles to himself] High concentration of capsaicin! Which means it's not blood at all. It's chili pepper juice. He must have spilled some in the book.
Peter: Well, that's great news. So, we'll add "messy" to the APB.
Walter: No, it is good news. A concentration of 970 thousand on the Scoville scale; that's one of the hottest chili peppers there is. I hypothesize that a Naga Jolokia from India, otherwise known as the King Cobra Chili. I once ate one. The flatulence was... horrible. Very embarrassing.

Peter: Third patient: Stuart Gordon. Just like Mr. Crampton, fourteen years ago Dr. Paris refers him to a mental hospital with the psychiatric equivalent of a cough, which then develops to full-blown schizophrenia. Two days ago he miraculously recovers. Apparently Mr. Gordon thought he was the actor Sydney Greenstreet and walked around quoting Casablanca. That's funny.
Olivia: What?
Peter: I think he looks a lot more like Peter Lorre. [awkward pause as Olivia doesn't laugh] That's a joke.

Olivia: You know, all my life I've been able to understand what drives people: their emotions, like greed, or envy, revenge, but Newton? These people we're up against? How can I fight what I don't understand?
Peter: Olivia, I know you think you're alone in this. Maybe that's because of what Bell told you, maybe that's just your personality, but this isn't just your fight.

Peter: [referring to Walter] Did you see the look on this face when we were talking to Mr. Slater? What do you think that's like for him? Wishing that he could turn back the clock to before he went crazy. He's just sane enough to realize how much he lost.
Olivia: I don't mean to sound callous, but from what I know of your father, going crazy made him a better person. It certainly made him a better father.
Peter: I should have visited him at St. Claire's.
Olivia: I think you're making up for that now.

Walter: Hello, I'm Dr. Walter Bishop. This is test subject number six.
Peter: What happened to subjects one through five?

Olivia: I ran into a guy from high school this morning. You should have seen the look in his eyes when I told him what I did.
Peter: Like chicks with guns turned him on?
Olivia: More like I was a freak. Like I had suddenly grown a third eye. Ever get the feeling that doing this job makes you less and less normal?
Peter: [chuckles] Absolutely!

Olivia: [to Peter] You had no choice. The first time I killed someone, the guy was a trained killer. If I hadn't pulled the trigger, I would be dead. I still didn't sleep that night, or the next. I'm just saying the first time is rough.

Walter: It's remarkable how Rose was willing to expose her secret to right a wrong. Brave of her.
Peter: You did something brave, too. The way you spoke up for those people. You didn't have to do that. I'm proud of you.
Walter: I'm glad you choose to see me the way you do. Very glad, indeed.

Peter: Were you able to get a hold of Rachel?
Olivia: No. I didn't try. She just went through all this stuff with me in the hospital, and she's still having nightmares about me being dead. What's the point of scaring her again? We are going to get out of this.
Peter: That's just like you. Even now you're protecting her. I thought that was the point of having people that cared about you in your life: to have someone to talk to when you're scared.

Walter: Oh, nonsense. Purple never goes out of style. And the day may come sooner than you think. Do you think she'll call me Dad?
Peter: Who?
Walter: Agent Dunham!
Peter: My guess would be no. [approaching Olivia and Manning]
Walter: Don't look at me like that. She's just what you need. Someone who can see right through you. Agent Dunham, don't you look lovely today? Doesn't she look lovely, Peter?
Peter: [smiling, appeasing Walter] You look lovely, Agent Dunham.
Peter: Who?
Walter: Agent Dunham!

Peter: [on the phone] You've got to be kidding me.
Olivia: Congratulations, Mr. Bishop. You've just won an all expense paid trip to New York City.
Peter: I thought I told you people to take me off your contestant list.
Olivia: Not according to our records. [smiles] It says here that you're a fan of fine dining and excitement!
Peter: Do you have a supervisor? Anybody there I could complain to, because this has to stop.
Olivia: Did I mention there's excitement?
Peter: [hangs up] Walter, wake up. We just won an all expense paid trip to New York City.
Walter: That's fantastic! I've never won anything before.

Astrid: What am I looking for?
Walter: Anything that looks like it doesn't belong.
Astrid: I think this qualifies. Richard Nixon on a silver dollar.
Walter: That's disturbing.
Astrid: So when you separate them, Walter, how are you going to tell them apart?
Walter: Mr. Pratchett from over there was married, he was wearing a wedding ring.
Astrid: So as far as his wife will ever know he just disappeared? That is so sad. Wow, look at this. It's a double-decker car! Does this mean they drive these over there?
Walter: I suppose so.

Walter: I think I'm starting to understand why the process didn't work. You are different. You're not that frightened child anymore. I thought all we needed was a heightened emotional response from you, but I was wrong. We needed a specific one: fear! And you're not capable of that anymore. Not like she was. What we did to you, you found a way to protect yourself. You channeled your fear into anger, which is why you're so good at your job, but if you want to save those people you have to find your way back to that scared little girl.
Olivia: And how do we do that?
Walter: I don't know.
Olivia: [walks away and finds the room she was frightened in as a child, then sits in the corner]
Peter: Hey. Is this a part of Walter's test? Are you all right?
Olivia: No. I'm not afraid of anything anymore.
Olivia: And how do we do that?
Walter: I don't know.
