Collaboration vs. Independence in Institutions
Cardinal Law If I can be of any help, Marty, don't hesitate to ask. I find that the city flourishes when its great institutions work together.
Marty Baron Thank you. Personally I'm of the opinion that for a paper to best perform its function, it really needs to stand alone.

Gale Weathers Is she dead?
[checking Mrs. Loomis' body.]
Sidney Prescott I don't know. They always come back.
Cotton Weary Whoa!
Sidney Prescott Just in case.
Investigating the System Behind Institutional Failures
Marty Baron We need to focus on the institution, not the individual priests. Practice and policy; show me the church manipulated the system so that these guys wouldn't have to face charges, show me they put those same priests back into parishes time and time again. Show me this was systemic, that it came from the top, down.
Ben Bradlee Jr. Sounds like we're going after Law.
Marty Baron We're going after the system.
The Importance of Investigative Journalism
Marty Baron Sometimes it's easy to forget that we spend most of our time stumbling around the dark. Suddenly, a light gets turned on and there's a fair share of blame to go around. I can't speak to what happened before I arrived, but all of you have done some very good reporting here. Reporting that I believe is going to have an immediate and considerable impact on our readers. For me, this kind of story is why we do this.

Confronting Threats and Making Tough Choices
Rebecca Lane What are our options?
Rebecca Lane And what if they track us down before then?
Vincent Campbell Then we'll just have to run them over - and over and over, until they stop getting up.

[[w:Woodstock|Woodstock]

Contemplating Existence Beyond Death
Rebecca Lane I keep wondering if he's still in there. Trapped inside his own body, with no control.
[on Brunel being contaminated]
Vincent Campbell Sounds like hell to me.
Rebecca Lane Do you think any part of us survives after death?
Vincent Campbell I don't know. It's a little bit above my pay grade.
The Bielski's Promise to Return
Zus Bielski We are the Bielski's and we WILL be back!
Facing Infection and Accepting Fate
Vincent Campbell There's a pretty good chance I'm infected too. If that's the case, I've got just enough fuel left to drop out of orbit and burn up in the atmosphere. At least it'll be quick. You should get this in about 15 minutes, so, uh, I guess I'll be waiting. Five eleven Zulu, Aurora lander out!
Childhood Memories and Parental Fears
Lilian Kantrowitz Do you remember when you were a little boy and you wanted to go swimming with your cousin?
Marty Kantrowitz Yeah - you didn't wanna let me go because...
Lilian Kantrowitz Because I knew something terrible was going to happen. I knew your cousin was gonna drown.
Marty Kantrowitz Yeah, but nothing terrible happened, Ma.
Lilian Kantrowitz And why is that?
Marty Kantrowitz Because I was careful.
Lilian Kantrowitz No. Why did nothing terrible happen?
Marty Kantrowitz We were extra careful because you told me.
Lilian Kantrowitz And your cousin wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for me.
Marty Kantrowitz What's goin on, Ma? Who's gonna drown?
Lilian Kantrowitz You are.

Discussion on Eileen McNamara's Column
Marty Baron Did everyone read Eileen McNamara's column this weekend?
Boston Globe Worker That's the Geoghan case?
Marty Baron Yeah, what's the follow on that?
Ben Bradlee Jr. It-It's a column, what kind of follow are you thinking?
Marty Baron Uh... well apparently this priest molested kids in 6 different parishes over the last 30 years and the attorney for the victims, a Mr...
Eileen McNamara Garabedian
Marty Baron Thanks Eileen, Mr Garabedian says Cardinal Law found out about it 15 years ago and did nothing.
Paul Burke Yeah, I think that attorney is a bit of a crank, and The Church dismissed the claim.
Eileen McNamara He-said she-said.
Marty Baron Whether Mr Garabedian is a crank or not, he says he has documents that prove that Cardinal knew.
Ben Bradlee Jr. As I understand that those documents are under seal.
Marty Baron Okay, but the fact remains a Boston priest abused 80 kids, we have a lawyer who says he can prove Law knew about it and we've written all of... uh... 2 stories in the last 6 months. This strikes me as an essential story to a local paper, I think the very least we have to go through those documents.
Paul Burke How would you like to do that?
Marty Baron Oh uh, I don't know what the laws are here, but in Florida we would go to court.
Ben Bradlee Jr. You wanna sue the Church?
Marty Baron Technically we wouldn't sue the Church, we'd file a motion to lift the seal on the documents.
Ben Bradlee Jr. The Church will read that as us suing them. So will everybody else.
Marty Baron Good to know.

Lazar Halt, who goes there?

Lazar Oh. Sorry Zus.

Cotton Weary What? Then who's that?
[Notices Mickey's body]
Sidney Prescott The other killer, Mickey.
Cotton Weary Okay.
Sidney Prescott Look, Cotton...
Cotton Weary Shut up. So...hi. You're, uh, not Debbie Salt, are you? You're not with the Post Telegraph.
[Speaks to Mrs. Loomis]
Mrs. Loomis No, but I can still help you, Cotton.
Cotton Weary Ah-ah-ah.
Mrs. Loomis You don't need her. Let me kill her! As long as she's alive, you're never going to be the lead story. That's what you really want, isn't it, Cotton? If you really wanna be in the spotlight, just let me kill her...right now. Then you're the only survivor. You're the star! SHE SENT YOU TO PRISON FOR A YEAR! Personally, I think it's rather poetic!
[desperate; Yells in rage]
Sidney Prescott No. No, Cotton, don't you listen to her.
Cotton Weary Oh. Well...it's quite a predicament you're in, Sid.
Sidney Prescott Cotton...
Cotton Weary I mean, she makes a good point. Let me think about this. Maybe you should, too. Bet you that Diane Sawyer interview's looking real good right about now.
[chuckles]
Sidney Prescott Consider it done.
Cotton Weary Wow. That...was intense.

Bradley I'm not afraid of you. I'm not afraid of dying.
Creed How do you know? You've never tried it before.
