Quotes

add »
Hawkins: (prepping to retrieve the bomb) I'm asking for your help but I can't afford for you to go off book out there and I don't have any room for debate, so if you've got any questions, now's the time.
Jake: Yeah, I've got a question. How do we find the bomb?
Hawkins: No idea. Anything else? (edit)
Heather: He said this government is corrupt and illegitimate. That it lied about who attacked us to seize power.
Beck: You're naive.
Heather: And you're a coward.
Beck: Excuse me?
Heather: You know there's something wrong with this country, and you refuse to open your eyes and see it. (edit)
Hawkins: How many paramedics carry a 9mm? (edit)
Constantino: Strange meeting. I figured you and I ever got this close again it'd be at the end of a gun.
Eric: A few weeks ago I was on my way to New Bern to put a bullet in your head. (edit)
Eric: You were right.
Stanley: Right about what?
Eric: Constantino. There's something he lost that I don't ever wanna give up. I mean, we're right, Cheyenne's wrong, but the minute we start shooting American soldiers, all that changes. (edit)

Trivia
