  Dr. Bill Capa : And my patient, her name was Michelle, jumped out of a window in my office.

  Dr. Bill Capa : So much blood. So red, and I... and right, uh, before my eyes the red, uh, disappeared. Just turned to gray, and so I don't see... red now. But, see, I was her doctor. And I failed. So I cannot help you. I don't think that you want someone like me around right now.

  Dr. Bill Capa : Yes, right here in the office.

  Buck : Was he shot, stabbed, beaten? Have they got a suspect? A motive? Three days go by and you don't call us?

  Dr. Bill Capa : I thought it'd be easier if you heard it together.

  Casey Heinz : Oh, I see. So even Bob's death is group therapy. That's great.

  [looks skyward] 

  Casey Heinz : Hey, Bob, thanks for giving us a chance to grieve together. Shit!

• Dr. Bill Capa : Tend to view our lives as if we're looking through a keyhole. It's a very limited view of the truth. So we have to fill in the blanks. We invent things. You invent enemies to test your strength against. You invent gods to protect you from these enemies. Who is the enemy? One minute you have friends. The next moment, they've slipped away.
