Quotes 

• Joe West : Iris! Come on! This brunch reservation ain't gonna get any later.

  Barry Allen : Joe, don't worry. I'll make sure we're on time. After surviving Armageddon, we all deserve this.

• Detective Eddie Thawne : Okay, I get it. I'm the new guy. You're busy, and I heard you just lost your partner, which has gotta be tough. Plus, one of our CSIs is in a coma, and on top of all that, you got shot down by Counselor Horton.

  Joe West : Who told you that?

  Detective Eddie Thawne : Uh, everyone.

  Nora Allen : You could try lilacs and crumb cake. Those are her favorites.

  Joe West : That's good advice. Who was that?

  Detective Eddie Thawne : One of our new interns. They're... a little weird.

• Joe West : Kid, have you ever even held a gun before?

  Sterling Brooks : Yes. This isn't my first heist.

  Joe West : Listen, most thieves don't wear what they just stole.

  Sterling Brooks : Yeah, I forgot a bag, all right?

• Sterling Brooks : I'm only taking the ethically-sourced, conflict-free diamonds. No blood diamonds for me. No, sir.

  Joe West : Listen. Lower your weapon before you have an accident.

  Sterling Brooks : Why don't you lower your weapon?

  [accidentally dropping his gun] 

  Sterling Brooks : Yow!

  [as it hits the ground, the bullet in the chamber discharges] 

  Nora Allen : [zooping in with Bart, in Flashtime]  Stop! If Grandpa Joe was never supposed to be here, then the gun was never supposed to fire at all. We can't cause another temporal flux.

  Bart Allen : Oh, great, you're just now mentioning that.

  Nora Allen : Well, I tried to when we were in the coffee line, but someone was too busy flirting!

  Bart Allen : What do we do?

  Nora Allen : Okay, um, we need to examine our variables and we need to form a plan. First, we need to consider...

  Bart Allen : Oh, my God, I got this.

  [he zoops over and pulls Joe out of the bullet's path, planting a kiss on Joe's cheek] 

  Sterling Brooks : [the scene returns to real-time]  I am so sorry. Those things are way heavier than they look in the movies.

• Joe West : Drop your weapon!

  Sterling Brooks : Ah! Freeze! I... this is a real gun with real bullets inside.

• Joe West : Hey, Counselor Horton. How are you?

  Cecile Horton : I am crappy, Detective West. So if you don't mind, I'm just gonna...

  Joe West : [blocking her way as she starts to leave]  Yeah. Sorry, um, we are celebrating New Year's here, and...

  Cecile Horton : Oh, God. Okay, I'ma stop you right there. Um, two things: one, I have a ton of paperwork back on my desk at the D.A.'s office, and two - this one's important; pay attention - all men are jerks. No offense.

  Joe West : None taken.

  Cecile Horton : Great.

  [leaving] 

  Cecile Horton : Happy New Year.

  Joe West : Damn...

  Officer Daisy Korber : Sorry, Detective. Then again, her divorce just finalized last week.

  Joe West : That wasn't worth mentioning?

  Officer Daisy Korber : I was gonna, but it just seems like you two would make such a great pair.
