- Christopher Herrmann: [to a gay basher at Molly's] Get out of here before you get your ass kicked by gays, firefighters and gay firefighters.
- Darren Ritter: Hey. Uh... I'm not off shift till morning.
- Eric: No, I know. I just... needed to get this out now.
- Darren Ritter: Oh, okay.
- Eric: I'm not here to argue. You blew me away last night. Seeing you in action like that, I just felt really proud.
- Darren Ritter: You did?
- Eric: Of course. But, Darren, the way you are with your 51 group, and especially when you were pulling that guy out of his car, that intense, that all-in mode... I love that mode. I remember it from when we were first hanging out. But it hasn't been like that between us in a long time.
- Darren Ritter: I want to push back, fight you on that, and try and make it work.
- Eric: But we've done that. A lot. And it always brought us right back here.
- Darren Ritter: Uh... It's crazy... how much it can hurt to do the right thing.
