Quotes 

• Catherine Chandler : Professor Hughes, I don't know how to explain this to you - I don't even pretend to understand it - but Vincent and I are connected. I know him. And I know that, whatever he is, he's also the best part of what it means to be human. And if you take away his freedom, then you take away that very part that makes him most human.

• Vincent : You look like an angel standing there...

  Catherine Chandler : I needed to see you... I have to make a decision and I need your help.

• Catherine Chandler : Your message said it was urgent.

  Jacob 'Father' Wells : Vincent is missing. He's been gone since night before last.

  Catherine Chandler : But I saw him that night.

  Jacob 'Father' Wells : I know.

  Catherine Chandler : Is there somewhere he might have gone?

  Jacob 'Father' Wells : No, he would never cause me such undue worry. We've searched everywhere. He's nowhere below. Vincent was not himself after he spoke with you.

  Catherine Chandler : About my going away?

  Jacob 'Father' Wells : Mm-hmm.

  Catherine Chandler : I'm only doing what we both thought best.

  Jacob 'Father' Wells : Once, I thought I knew the answer. No longer. We must find Vincent, quickly.

  Catherine Chandler : What can we do?

  Jacob 'Father' Wells : Our friends above are searching the city. Beyond that... I don't know.

  Catherine Chandler : Why did you come to tell me?

  Jacob 'Father' Wells : Because I know you care.

• Catherine Chandler : I've been offered another job, Vincent. A much better job, with more responsibility. A chance to use my training, and to help people more than I'm able to now. But it would mean leaving New York.

  Vincent : Where would you go?

  Catherine Chandler : Providence, Rhode Island.

  Vincent : Providence is when... something is meant to be.

  Catherine Chandler : I don't know what's meant to be. Vincent, I care about you so deeply. But a part of me is unhappy. And we both know why.

  Vincent : Well, then you don't have any choice.

  Catherine Chandler : But I do. That's why I'm here.

  Vincent : You didn't come this far, Catherine, to turn back now.

  Catherine Chandler : I came this far because of you. I don't want to leave you behind.

  Vincent : Beyond these tunnels, beyond this city, is a world of possibilities and wonders, and... and things calling out to be done. These things I could only dream about until you came into my life. Catherine, don't you understand? You must go. You must see... you must do everything you were meant to do. For me, for both of us. And then, I can truly be with you. Always.

  Catherine Chandler : There's no other way?

  Vincent : No. Not for us.
