Episode Quotes
 
Sydney: The Centre wants him alive.
Miss Parker: Preferably.
 
Miss Parker: Hell of an environment you keep him in, Syd. With input like this maybe we'll find him masquerading as a postal worker.
 
Jarod: And, by the way, ice cream is good.
 
Miss Parker: Your little monster need his teddy bear, huh, Sydney?
Sydney: Jarod is not a monster.
Miss Parker: Call him what you want, Dr. Frankenstein. Just tell me where he is!
 
Andy: (pointing to x-ray film): Any special reason you're looking at those?
Jarod: Any special reason you're in here half-naked?
 
Miss Parker: Make up your mind, Sydney! Be a scientist or a mommy. You can't be both.
 
Sydney: You were such a happy little girl. What happened to you?
Miss Parker: I grew up, Syd. So should you.
 
Sydney: (to the camera) This one has only been with us for thirty-six hours and he's already demonstrating more talent than any of our others. (to Jarod) Hi, Jarod. I'm Sydney. I'll be taking care of you for a while.
Younger Jarod: Why? Where's my mom and dad?
 
Mrs. Nykos: Are you a doctor?
Jarod: I am today.
