- Nikki Betancourt: I don't know about the outfit, Boss. Kind of look like an Eagle Scout.
- [Don is dressed in an armoured car security guard uniform]
- Don Eppes: Be prepared.
- Amita Ramanujan: Who's D.B. Cooper?
- Nikki Betancourt: You know the life span of a $20 bill but not the most famous unsolved crime in American history?
- Colby Granger: He hijacked a plane back in - was it the 60's?
- David Sinclair: 1971. Got 200 grand from the airline, jumped out the plane and just disappeared.
- Colby Granger: So how does the ransom turn up in the Federal Reserve 38 years later?
- Colby Granger: Guys, guess who worked this case back in the 70's.
- Nikki Betancourt: Roger Bloom. He's been around that long?
- Colby Granger: Could be a big help. We would never have busted the copycat bank robberies if it weren't for him.
- Don Eppes: Had a bit of a man crush on you, didn't he?
- Colby Granger: He hates Nikki.
- Nikki Betancourt: He doesn't hate me. He just doesn't get me.
- Don Eppes: You should probably knock on his door in the morning.
- Roger Bloom: Why is it only G-men that ring the doorbell at 6.30 in the morning?
- Colby Granger: It's not my fault you worked on every major FBI case since Patty Hearst.
- David Sinclair: Um, actually, I was looking for you. Okay, here it is. I have a date for, uh, Saturday night. It's, uh, for the symphony. I need some help buying a suit.
- Amita Ramanujan: Don't you have a lot of suits?
- [Looks at the suit he's currently wearing]
- Amita Ramanujan: .
- David Sinclair: They all make me, uh, look like...
- Amita Ramanujan: An FBI agent.
- David Sinclair: Yeah. You know, I mean, Don and I, we don't have the same taste. Colby's idea of dressing up is a string tie.
- [Amita laughs]
- David Sinclair: Liz is out of town. I didn't tell Nikki that I have a date.
- [He rolls his eyes]
- David Sinclair: . You always look good. Your clothes are great, so...
- Amita Ramanujan: I'd be happy to help you. And not tell Nikki.
- David Sinclair: Appreciate it. Thank you.
- Nikki Betancourt: Okay. Back to the boxes. Roger, wanna help me out?
- Roger Bloom: Oh, that's what I came for.
- Colby Granger: She'll grow on you.
- Roger Bloom: Yeah
- Colby Granger: Yeah. Maybe.
- Don Eppes: Hey, maybe that's it. The risk is the reward. Like an adrenaline high.
- Charlie Eppes: Speaking of adrenaline, by the way, this morning, Dad made an off-handed comment about D.B. Cooper being a folk hero. And it started this whole argument about the 60's and just the way that Bloom reacted, honestly, I'm glad that he doesn't carry a gun anymore.
- Don Eppes: Actually, I think he does carry a gun.
- Charlie Eppes: He really went off on Dad.
- Don Eppes: The guy's a vet. He comes home and people are calling him baby killer...
- Charlie Eppes: You don't think Dad ever called anyone a baby killer?
- Don Eppes: No. But sometimes, I'm not sure he really gets what guys like Bloom went through.
- David Sinclair: Hey, they have internet service in the mountains, right?
- Colby Granger: I'm gonna take you camping, if only for entertainment value.
- Nikki Betancourt: Thanks for the diplomacy lesson.
- Roger Bloom: Okay, all right, I know.
- Nikki Betancourt: You gotta admire well-executed stonewalling. Letter and everything.
- Roger Bloom: Do you like Vietnamese food? There is a takeout place about three blocks up that makes an unbelievable pho.
- Nikki Betancourt: Please tell me that's not some breed of dog.
- Roger Bloom: No, that's some breed of noodle soup. You have to broaden your horizons, miss.
- Roger Bloom: You blew the whistle on your own unit for a massacre at Nu Bac.
- Ray Till: All I did was not cover it up.
- Roger Bloom: David, he is being modest. In Nam, if you stuck your neck out, if you spoke up, you knew what was gonna happen. They'd suppress your commendations, they'd write you up for dirty boots, a bullet hole in your helmet. And if you were really stubborn, they sent you out on a wire where the bullet with your name could find you.
- Ray Till: Lucky it only had my first name.
- Roger Bloom: Yeah, you went home with a medical discharge.
- Amita Ramanujan: [Alan leaves] Well, I guess I just lost some daughter-in-law points there.
- Charlie Eppes: Notice how I kept my mouth shut?
- Amita Ramanujan: Yeah, I did.
- Charlie Eppes: I already had one uncomfortable moment with my brother.
- [Waitress places bill on table]
- Charlie Eppes: Thank you. I got it. I have no idea where that guy came from, you know. It's like, there was my mom, my dad, me. And there was Don, off with playing G.I. Joes and guns.
- Amita Ramanujan: I thought you guys weren't allowed to play with toy guns.
- Charlie Eppes: We weren't. He got his from this kid across the street.
- Don Eppes: Hey, what are you doing with this?
- [Picks up toy gun]
- Don Eppes: .
- Alan Eppes: I was making room for Amita.
- Don Eppes: I totally used to rule the neighbourhood with this puppy.
- Charlie Eppes: You ruled the neighbourhood?
- Don Eppes: I did. What you talkin about? Roger, you should see the range on this. I used to just have them all on the block, just like,
- [mimics gunfire, Alan cringes]
- Don Eppes: .
- Charlie Eppes: Let's set up a historic re-enactment. Vets versus hippies. Me and Dad versus the two of you.
- Don Eppes: Total blowout.
- [to Roger]
- Don Eppes: Come on, we'll kill them.
- Roger Bloom: You can set up a field of fire. That does not qualify you as a vet, because it's more of a state of mind. Right, Alan?
- Alan Eppes: That's right. That's right.
- [Gestures to Charlie]
- Alan Eppes: The same way scraggly hair and a four day growth of beard doesn't make you a rebel. One time on one of those freedom rides this Alabama state trooper, hit me with his baton so hard that the baton broke. Yeah, I still have a scar.
- Roger Bloom: See? And this is how tough your dad is. You did not fight back.
- Alan Eppes: You're right. We weren't supposed to.
- [to Don and Charlie]
- Alan Eppes: What's with the slack jaws? Give the man a beer.
- Don Eppes: I wanna talk about this re-enactment thing. We're the FBI. I get tear gas. I mean, you guys are dead.
- Charlie Eppes: We can bring a book of beatnik poetry or something.
- Roger Bloom: Can I make a toast?
- Don Eppes: Sure.
- Roger Bloom: To scars. Those that we've already earned, and those that are coming.
