Fringe Season 4 Episode 16

Walter: I--I like porcupines. Shows that God has a sense of humor.

Olivia: It has to do with cuneiform.
Markham: Sumerian, Hittite, or Akkadian?
Olivia: Impressive.
Markham: I know. I'm a very, very impressive man.
Olivia: And I'm still taken.
Markham: Can't blame a guy for trying.

Lincoln: "Should"?
Walter: Most likely. 80%
Lincoln: And if I'm part of the other 20%?
Walter: Let's take it one step at a time.

Lincoln: Do I really have to drink that?
Walter: Only if you want to live. A blend of wheat grass, penicillin, some mild laxatives, and I put in some mint to kill the aftertaste.
Lincoln: It didn't work.
