Mary McDonnell: Sharon Raydor

Quotes 

• Rusty Beck : I shouldn't be going to this school. I'm not even Catholic.

  Captain Sharon Raydor : Just walk around with a guilty expression on your face. You'll fit right in.

• Rusty Beck : So, what am I supposed to do while you're HERE?

  Captain Sharon Raydor : Maybe go back to sleep for a bit. Are you comfortable in the back seat?

  Rusty Beck : Of course I'm comfortable in backseats. What do you think?

  Captain Sharon Raydor : THAT is an example of what you will NOT say today at school, understood?

• Father James Healy : Captain, when you approached us about taking on Rusty as a student, we raised concerns that you asked us to overlook. We tried, and it just doesn't seem to be a good fit.

  Captain Sharon Raydor : Let's review the events as I understand them: Rusty was asked what he did over the summer, he told the truth, he was assaulted and defended himself, and now you're trying to throw him out? What about the boy who attacked him?

  Father James Healy : It was three boys, and they will be punished - after they get out of the infirmary.

  Captain Sharon Raydor : And expelled?

  Father James Healy : Consider my position.

  Captain Sharon Raydor : I am. I am also considering the message that you send by turning away an abandoned boy. Is that the example that you want our congregation to follow?

  Father James Healy : I'm concerned with the safety of my other students.

  Captain Sharon Raydor : And what about their souls? Do you worry that they hear one thing at mass and another thing at school?

• Captain Sharon Raydor : Lieutenant! I told you what I want done. Do I really need to phrase it as an order?

• Captain Sharon Raydor : Right now, you'll be a stranger no matter where you go. The longer you avoid sticking in one place, the harder it'll get.
