  Episode Quotes  
Bennet: People are fragile. Like teacups.
 
Ted: No, that was Plan A. Plan B is much better!
Matt: There is no Plan B!
 
Matt: (trying to read Bennet's mind) The son of a bitch is thinking in Japanese!
Ted: (to Bennet) Why are you thinking in Japanese?
 
Bennet: (thinking to Matt) You have to trust me, shoot Claire.
Claire: (thinking to Matt) Shoot me!
 
Claire: (to Bennet) You want me to play dead? I'm sorry, I'm not Mr. Muggles.
 
Bennet: (to Matt) I'm just a paper salesman.
 
Ted: I'm curious about something. Did Parkman know, when he shot you, that you wouldn't die? Did your dad tell him that?
Claire: I don't know.
Ted: That explains why they were so chummy when they came down the stairs.
 
Sandra: I always thought you were a miracle. I didn't know how much of one 'til now.
Claire: I'm not a miracle, Mom.
Sandra: You were dead. Anytime someone rises from the dead, I'd say that's a miracle.
Claire: I don't know what I am. I don't know if God made me this way or someone else.
Ted: God didn't make me this way.
Sandra: God makes us all the way we are. (to Claire) "I walked through fire and didn't get burned." You were trying to tell me.
Claire: I was ... trying not to tell you.
