Heroes Season 1 Episode 17

(as part of Bennet's ruse, Matt has just shot Claire)
Sandra: (terrified) No, no no no no no. CLAIRE! (to Matt) WHAT DID YOU DO?
Ted: (to Matt) WHAT did you do that for?
Bennet: (about Ted, in thoughtspeak) To gain his trust.
Matt: Now he knows how far we'll go.

(Flashback to 3 years ago, when Claire is helping Mr. Bennet pick his first pair of glasses)
Claire: Let's see. (Mr. Bennet tries on a pair of glasses) Those are grandpa glasses.
Mr. Bennet: Ouch. (takes them off and picks up another pair) Ok, how about these? (he puts them on; Claire laughs) What?
Claire: (laughing) Grandma glasses.

(Mr. Bennet and Thompson view Ted, who is locked up in a containment cell similar to Sylar's)
Thompson: (about Ted) Now that we have him, we'll keep Sprague sedated...find out what gives him his "spark."
Mr. Bennet: And then?
Thompson: What do you think?

Ted: (to Claire) I'm curious about something. Did Parkman know, when he shot you, that you wouldn't die? Did your dad tell him that?
Claire: I don't know.
Ted: (about Matt and HRG) That explains why they were so chummy when they came down the stairs.

Sandra: (to Claire) I always thought you were a miracle. I didn't know how much of one till now.
Claire: I'm not a miracle, Mom.
Sandra: You were dead. Anytime someone rises from the dead...(short pause) I'd say that's a miracle.
Claire: I don't know what I am. I don't know if God made me this way or someone else.
Ted: God didn't make me this way.
Sandra: (to Ted) God makes us all the way we are. (sighs; to Claire) "I walked through fire and didn't get burned." You were trying to tell me.
Claire: I was...trying not to tell you.

Matt: (to Ted) Do you want revenge, or do you want the truth? You can't have both.

(Matt is trying to read Mr. Bennet's mind and finds he's thinking in Japanese)
Matt: Son of a bitch is thinking in Japanese.
Ted: Why are you thinking in Japanese?! Huh?

Matt: (After listening to Claire's thoughts) He's got them all fooled, except for her.
Ted: (To Mr. Bennet) Just when you thought plausible deniability was gonna save your ass.

Mr. Bennet: I don't know you.
Ted Sprague: Don't insist on lying. You're gonna upset me. You know what happens when I get upset. ( looking at Claire) I get very bright, and very hot.

Thompson: He's already here.
Mr. Bennet: Is this a test? (Claude appears on edge of desk) Holy shoot! How did you….how did…how is…how is that….?
Claude: It's a brave new world, friend.

Mr. Nakamura: (about Claire) Don't get too close. You're only her surrogate father. She belongs to us. If she manifests, we'll take her.
Mr. Bennet: Of course.

Mr. Bennet: I think my wife suspects something. She went through my bag. She found my gun and my sedation kit.
Thompson: That's a particular kind of stupid on your part, letting her find them.
Mr. Bennet: I know, I know. The baby's been keeping me up for days, it was sloppy. I think Sandra thinks I'm some kind of a serial killer.

Thompson: (about the young Haitian) When we asked him to describe his ability he drew a picture of himself pulling memories like little grub worms out of someone's head. I wanted to put it on my fridge.

Mr. Bennet: Guess who found out you can talk? Who've you been talking to? Who else knows about Claire?
Haitian: Just her and I. But that will change.
Mr. Bennet: She wasn't supposed to remember any of this. I gave you specific instructions.
Haitian: I answer to someone whose instructions supersede yours.
Mr. Bennet: In this company?
Haitian: In your daughter's life.

Mr. Bennet: I know who I work for.
Raines: So do I. I was in the office when they told you to kill me.
Mr. Bennet: Then why'd you get in the car?
Raines: Evidently I think you're a better man than they do.

Ted: Then why the theatrics of shooting the girl who can't die?
Matt: It's better than shooting one that can.

Mr. Bennet: There's no cure. We can't change the way you are. The only choice was to kill you.
Ted: I wish you had.
Mr. Bennet: It was my call. You had a life. Who was I to take it from you?

Mr. Bennet/HRG : You used to believe in what we do.
Claude: I used to believe in the tooth fairy.

(3 years ago)
HRG: Claire Bear, talk to me.
Claire: Try these on. (Pushes horned-rimmed glasses toward him.)
HRG:(tries them on) How do I look?
Claire: Like my dad.

Claire: (thinking) I can run. Get some help. They can't hurt me.
Matt: I know you're thinking about being a hero. Don't. Don't! This guy is serious and he is really and he's really dangerous and I need your help to make sure that nobody gets hurt.
Claire: You can read my mind.
Matt: Yeah. Yeah, that's something your dad did to me.
Claire: It didn't just happen?
Matt: I wouldn't be here right now if it just happened.
Claire: Has my dad done this to other people?
Matt: Yeah, as far as I can tell. It's different with everyone. I've seen some weird things. I'm sure you have, too. Like that stuff at your school.
Claire: (thinking) Peter Petrelli.
Matt: Peter Petrelli? He can do what I can do. What do you know about him?
Claire: (thinking) He can do what I can do. (aloud) He's different...like you.
Matt: Save the cheerleader. I read his mind, he read mine. He told me to protect you...from someone who was killing people like me. Are you different, Claire? Your blood was all over that crime scene. And you didn't have a scratch on you. Why didn't you have a scratch on you?
Claire: (thinking) I can heal. (aloud) Did my dad make me this way?

Ted: He killed my wife, only fair I kill his -- and with his own gun, too!

HRG: Go deep. Destroy anything that would lead them to her!

(Mr. Muggles is barking)
Ted: I've had enough of that.
(Ted picks up Mr. Muggles)
Matt: Don't!
Ted: I'm not going to nuke the dog!

Claire(crying): Dad?
Mr. Bennet: I love you Claire Bear

(14 years ago)
Mr. Nakamura (To Mr Bennet): Having children changes a man.

Claire: (To Matt.) He isn't a paper salesman.
Ted: Guess she isn't daddy's little girl anymore.

Claire: (As Matt reads her mind.) This is your fault. (To her dad.)

H.R.G.: You didn't grow inside your mother. You grew inside our hearts.

Ted: If you are not back in an hour, look for a mushroom cloud.

Mr. Bennet: (To Claire) Just do what I say so nobody gets hurt.
Mr. Bennet: And you.
Matt: Yeah?
Mr. Bennet: Do what I think!

H.R.G.: I don't want anyone else dying because of what I did to you.
Ted Do all the words that come out of your mouth sound like lies?

Ted: Kind of poetic, don't you think?

Thompson: So how do you feel about paper?
HRG: Mildly enthusiastic.

Mr. Bennet/HRG: What do you want from me? You come in to my house with guns?
Ted Sprague: Not guns, gun. I don't need a gun. Do I, Mr. Bennet? Not after what you did to me.
Mr. Bennet/HRG: I don't know you.
Ted Sprague: If you insist on lying, you're gonna upset me. You know what happen when I get upset? I get very bright and very hot.
Matt Parkman: No, no, no, no. Ted is going to do us all a favor, right Ted? And he's not gonna get upset. (pointing at Mr. Bennet) But you gotta help.
Mr. Bennet/HRG: I'm not who you think I am. I'm just a paper salesman.
Ted Sprague: No, no. You're not.
