Detective Lionel Fusco:
How about we just figure a way to get out of here and go home?

John Reese:
Home? What home, Lionel?

Detective Lionel Fusco:
You know, I mean, you've never actually invited me over, but home - meaning our friends and that thing we were doing.

John Reese:
What is it we were doing again?

Detective Lionel Fusco:
Helping people, keeping 'em safe so they could get home to their loved ones.

John Reese:
No offense, Lionel. I know the whole "being a good guy" thing is new to you, but you're not fooling anyone, and neither will we. We weren't helping people. We were delaying the inevitable.

Detective Lionel Fusco:
No one ever said we were gonna win, but it doesn't mean you stop fighting.

John Reese:
No. I've learned my lesson. It's entropy, Lionel, decay. We save someone, they'll still lose, just tomorrow, not today. And I know that now, same as I know you'll probably go back to be a corrupt piece of garbage. Water finds its level.

Detective Lionel Fusco:
[Angry] You know what? She was the best of us - better than me and a damn sight better than you. And she got killed. But where I come from, that doesn't mean you just give up.
