- Suren: [to Aidan] I'm just a bit overwhelmed. Mother will be here tomorrow and instead of making preparations, I'm sitting down at a table with a ghost and a dog.
- Suren: And you keep such a clean home, Josh. I'm impressed. You're a credit to your kind.
- Julia: What's his kind? Jewish?
- Aidan: Dude-ish! Right? 'Cause he's a dude and he's- He's a clean dude and dudes are messy. It's just a fact.
- Sally Malik: This conversation is not better.
- Suren: Mother, why are you doing this? Are you unhappy with me?
- Mother: I am quite satisfied. But a few months of "quite satisfy" don't make up for 8 centuries of "utterly disappointed." And Aidan, you were to Suren with Boston and I would grant you freedom from our world. I believe you've kept up your end. For now, I'm going to grant you freedom... in the truest sense of the word. You can enjoy your mortals and their society holds for you, because this world is now sealed off to you... all places and all people.
- Suren: Mother, you can't mean this.
- Mother: No one in our world is to have anything to do with Aidan Waite. Any vampire found in contact with this man will be put to death.
- Aidan: How could you do this to me, after everything I've done for this family, after everything that I've sacrificed for her?
- Mother: Come now, every move you've made you've made for your own benefit. And now, you can leave.
- Aidan: [laughs] Yeah, and you can go to hell.
- [Aidan rushes back at Mother, she grabs him by his throat]
- Mother: You dare to speak this way to me?
- Aidan: This is what freedom sounds like.
- Mother: I should turn you to dust right here. But we know now how fragile this one can be. So enjoy the mercy I'm showing you now.
- Janet Hines: [doesn't believe Nora's story that Sally is really a ghost] Wait. You're a patient here too.
- Nora, Sally Malik: What?
- Janet Hines: A schizophrenic or a compulsive liar. You heard me babbling to the doctors and made up your own in your head.
- Nora: No. Sally, I need a little help here.
- Sally Malik: What do you want me to do?
- Janet Hines: Please stop talking like that!
- Nora: I don't know. Something "ghosty."
- Sally Malik: Something "ghosty"? Do I look like Patrick Swayze to you?
