....
 * Noah Foster: And one last "thank you" to my loyal listeners for their condolences. Life is short. It is random. I've seen Final Destination. Death is coming for us all, and it can't be cheated. It's up to us to enjoy every moment we're lucky enough to have, with the people we're lucky enough to love.

....

 * Kristin Lang: Your son is very talented, Sheriff, with a unique perspective.
 * Miguel Acosta: Is that a nice way of saying, "disturbing"?

 * Miguel Acosta: He's trying to understand me?
 * Kristin Lang: His early fascination with death started when he snuck into one of your files. He saw a crime scene photo - a dead gang member shot in the head. Stavo said it was the first time he was really struck with the reality of what you live with, day in and day out.

....
