- Dr. Breene: Paramedic Parker's breakdown left an immeasurable hole in the fabric of life in that firehouse. Mr. Parker seems to have become sort of a surrogate father for these employees and apparently helped them through difficulties encountered during and after 9\11. This role as father almost certainly contributed to his feeling that it was left to him to rectify what he saw as the closing of the 5-5 and therefore the destruction of his family.
- Carlos Nieto: What the hell does 9\11 have to do with it?
- Dr. Breene: Doc's statements made to the police officer that brought him out suggest it may be the root of his breakdown.
- Carlos Nieto: No, Doc's the one that we all talked to. He was the only real strong one. Doc Parker's the reason why I dropped out of med school, okay? Figured if being a paramedic was good enough for someone like him.
- Jelly Grimaldi: .45 found 10 feet away.
- Officer Dade: Yeah, that's where I found the casing. Looked like a .45.
- Jelly Grimaldi: I just said that.
- Holly Levine: Doc is a teacher. He did this for us so we could learn lessons. I'm grateful.
- Dr. Breene: What lessons have you learned?
- Holly Levine: Uh, I'm still working on that.
- Kim Zambrano: [about Doc's whereabouts] Where is he?
- Dr. Breene: At Bellevue under suicide watch.
- Kim Zambrano: Have you spoken to him?
- Dr. Breene: He won't talk to anyone.
- Sgt. Maritza Cruz: [to Wynn] What the hell is going on?
- Sergeant Laura Wynn: You didn't know?
- Sgt. Maritza Cruz: Nobody told me anything.
- Sergeant Laura Wynn: Oh, um, well, this was our collar and it turned into a raid. Why would we be telling him anyway?
- Sgt. Maritza Cruz: We're Anti-Crime. I'm working on an Ecstasy case myself.
- Off. Faith Yokas: Oh, okay.
- Sgt. Maritza Cruz: Yeah.
- Off. Faith Yokas: Well, uh, you're welcome to look at the seizure as long as you don't touch anything.
- Off. Maurice 'Bosco' Boscorelli: [to Yokas] You ready?
- Off. Faith Yokas: Very.
- Off. Maurice 'Bosco' Boscorelli: Listen...
- Off. Faith Yokas: If you tell me to be careful, I'll hurt you.
- Jelly Grimaldi: [to Cruz] I ever tell you how I managed to stay happy in my career? By staying out of the drama.
- Sgt. Maritza Cruz: Good for you.
- Dr. Breene: [voice over; in her tape recorder] Kim Zambrano actually returned to work from her own mental collapse on September 11th. She pushed aside her own pain and answered the city's call for help. This is a theme, which, as you know runs through most of the city's emergency employees. Carlos Nieto acted selflessly during the hostage situation at the firehouse and certainly saved Captain Steeper's life. However, as do many of the survivors of 9\11, he clearly doesn't feel heroic. Despite their hesitance to speak openly with me, if they do not locate an avenue for such a discussion, they will never adequately recover from this trauma.
- Sgt. Maritza Cruz: The jewelry store, Bosco? The Hassids?
- Off. Maurice 'Bosco' Boscorelli: I had a confidential informant.
- Sgt. Maritza Cruz: Oh, really? Who's that?
- Off. Maurice 'Bosco' Boscorelli: That would be the confidential part.
- Off. Maurice 'Bosco' Boscorelli: [about his brother, Mikey] I was at his meeting last night. He got that 6-month coin or whatever.
- Sgt. Maritza Cruz: He did? Well, that's interesting because see I got 17 of those coins from my sister over the years before she died. 17. How much are those worth now?
- Off. Maurice 'Bosco' Boscorelli: You know what really pisses me off? That I was stupid enough to fall for the whole damn "I changed" thing. Nobody changes. People don't change, do they, Dad? We can go out, we can have all those steak dinners we want, but it don't make us a family. I'm my own family.
- Jelly Grimaldi: Somebody selling tickets here?
- Sgt. Maritza Cruz: What's up, Jelly?
- Jelly Grimaldi: Could you get more people into my crime scene?
- Off. John 'Sully' Sullivan: [to Yokas] So, you're riding with Bosco again, huh?
- Off. Faith Yokas: I'm working 5-5 David.
- Off. John 'Sully' Sullivan: Right. You're riding with Bosco again.
