• “You know I just got kind of a hunch that this other Lincoln’s telling us the truth.” “Must be because he has such a trustworthy face.” “See, I think it’s kind of funny looking.” “You’re funny looking.”

• “And what is it you need?” “From you, nothing. You don’t have the authority. Take me to your leader.”

• “Hey! Walter’s just discovered molecular gastronomy.” “I liquefied meat then placed it in an alginate bath. It’s really quite…” “Disgusting.”

• “Not every experiment is a success. But I hold high hopes for the parmesan ice cream.” “Had a fun day?” “The best. What’s up?”

• “Take him to interrogation. I’ll meet you there. This time use an actual room not the maintenance closet.”

• “I need to be part of this investigation. I lost a partner.” “I lost a universe!”

• “You two seem close.” “Yeah, we are. Oh no, no. No, I mean, not…just as partners.” “You don’t have to say it like that…like he’s…hideous.”

• “I’m guessing that’s not lunch.”

• “We both lost our sons. We never watched them grow up and fall in love; have babies. But there’s some of them in him. This Peter. I know you feel it too. And if you could just help him. Walter, he deserves to go back to the people he loves and who love him.” “I’m afraid.” “So’s he.”

• “He is holding all the cards on this.” “Not all of them. You have me. I know him. And I saw how nervous he was when I was questioning him. If nothing else, I’m a variable that he didn’t plan for. But yes, we will all have to work together. Somewhere, we stopped him once before. And we can stop him again.”
