- Matt Lisko: Don't worry, Frank. I'm not here to cause trouble.
- Lt. Frank Briggs, Jr.: Really? 'Cause for the past couple decades, it's been really nice and quiet around here. Now we got your kid writing about homicides that aren't homicides. And people are already starting to talk.
- Hilde Lisko: Do you know anyone that might have had a motive to kill your sister?
- Donny Davis: You can trust us, sir.
- Sam Gillis: I think I have an idea. But I can't tell you over the phone. They monitor all my calls here.
- Principal Kim Collins: First you report that an accident is a murder, then you bring a convicted criminal into the school.
- Hilde Lisko: Convicted but probably innocent.
- Principal Kim Collins: Well, that's not what these parents think. They're just gonna wonder why their kids saw a killer at school today. What would you do if you were me?
- Hilde Lisko: I would wanna know the truth about what happened to my friend, Richie Fife. He was your friend.
- Principal Kim Collins: Hilde, no one in this town thinks that Sam Gillis is innocent.
- Hilde Lisko: Do you?
- Matt Lisko: Why are you stalking my family, Frank?
- Lt. Frank Briggs, Jr.: I'm just doing my job.
- Matt Lisko: Right, sure. It's your job to sit outside my house in the middle of the night?
- Lt. Frank Briggs, Jr.: Keeping Erie Harbor safe from anyone suspicious is pretty much the gig.
- Matt Lisko: Yeah, well, how the hell am I suspicious?
- Lt. Frank Briggs, Jr.: I don't know. It sure is strange you're here not one day and your old friend, Penny, turns up dead.
- Matt Lisko: I thought that was an accident.
- Bridget Jensen: You did the right thing. You told the truth, your truth. That is always the right thing.
- Matt Lisko: Yeah, well, it didn't stop an innocent man from going to prison for the rest of his life.
- Bridget Jensen: It wasn't your fault. You were just a kid.
- Hilde Lisko: The public has the right to know that Penny Gillis' death is now under investigation.
- Deputy Mackenzie 'Trip' Johnson III: It's not, okay? Not officially.
- Hilde Lisko: Then the public has the right to know that.
- Deputy Mackenzie 'Trip' Johnson III: How do I turn you off? Hmm? Is there an off button or a light switch or...
- Hilde Lisko: Take me with you... to get the real story.
- Matt Lisko: You're a liar, Frank. I got a videotape to prove it. And that van, it didn't even have a goddamn license plate. And you knew your testimony was wrong, didn't you?
- Lt. Frank Briggs, Jr.: I was a kid, Matt. It's what I thought I saw. I was just a kid.
- Matt Lisko: Yeah, well, so was Richie. And his killer's still out there.
