• Henry Morgan : [rushes into the lab]  Lucas, there is a knife in evidence lockup. I need to do a metallurgy test on it. Could you fetch it for me, please?

  Lucas Wahl : No can do, doc! Jo came down. She said you'd ask. She also said if I gave it to you, I'd be fired and possibly be prosecuted for evidence tempering. Case is closed. Guess it's back to your old day job, right? Might want to get started on that stack of paperwork in your office there

  Henry Morgan : Lucas, it's no time...

  Lucas Wahl : Do paperwork! Now!

  Lucas Wahl : Hm?

  Henry Morgan : They're going to know it was you!

But working with you... I... I now know what's possible with the living. I mean, how many people can say that they've truly witnessed greatness? Besides, commands are no constraints. Right, Henry?

  Henry Morgan : Did you just quote Milton?

  Lucas Wahl : Yeah. Actually I looked it up in anticipation of this conversation. I wanted to sound smart

  Henry Morgan : You are smart, Lucas! I'm proud of you!

  Lucas Wahl : Cool
