- 2nd Lt. Zandra Carter: Jim didn't kill Captain Sarbani.
- Lieutenant Harper Li: How could you know that?
- 2nd Lt. Zandra Carter: Because I was the one in Captain Sarbani's barracks that night. I'm the person you're looking for. I shot Captain Sarbani.
- Asa Turnbull: You're still a person, Glenn. You pictured our son's life in a certain way. That picture is different, now. It's okay to mourn what's gone. If you want to give therapy another shot...
- Colonel Glenn Turnbull: Adam is a Marine, Asa. He doesn't need his mommy and daddy to get back together.
- Asa Turnbull: That's not why we'd be doing it. We need to get through this. If working through some of our stuff makes it easier, if it makes it better for Adam, shouldn't we at least try?
- Colonel Glenn Turnbull: Asa believes in perpetual motion. It soothes his anxiety about the world.
- Valentina Cruz: Well, not that you asked, but we're better at this than they are. Men. You take care of yourself, and let Asa do Asa.
- Colonel Glenn Turnbull: Val? What's gonna happen to my son?
- Valentina Cruz: Some fight. Some never come all the way back. It's too soon to tell which way Adam's gonna go.
- Colonel Glenn Turnbull: Asa, my son is in the hospital. Half my staff is in Afghanistan. This is not where I want to be.
- Asa Turnbull: This is not about what we want.
- Colonel Glenn Turnbull: You're trying to write a story that I don't want to be in. This is not gonna get us back together.
- Captain John 'Abe' Abraham: You said you wanted to protect the boy, but according to his own words, he didn't need protecting. Did you make a mistake?
- 2nd Lt. Zandra Carter: He didn't understand the situation, the danger he was in.
- Captain John 'Abe' Abraham: Was the boy beaten, bruised, crying?
- 2nd Lt. Zandra Carter: No, but he looked terrified.
