"When I hang up the phone, this is what you're going to do." "All right, people." "I want a tap on that cell phone now!" "We're scanning frequencies, sir, but there are just too many in the station." "Mark can draw him out, sir." "We just need to give him some time." "(Wedeck) Time is the one thing we don't have." "Now, Mark, if all my directions are understood, say... "Pico."" "Pico." "He said Pico and Figueroa." "(Typing)" "All right." "I want two S.W.A.T. Teams to the intersection of Pico and Figueroa." "Perfect." "And that number that I jotted down on the back of the polaroid?" "Set your watch to count back from it." "(Beeps)" "Now you know how long Demetri has left to live." "Start running, Mark." "We'll see each other soon." "(Wedeck) What's he doing?" "What's he doing?"

"Yes, that is correct, your honor, but-- and he's found no evidence of appendicitis in either of those examinations." "Now correct me if I'm misreading the records." "No, Judge Sandoz" "I am misreading things?" "I'm sorry." "That's not what I meant." "But appendicitis is responsible for over 20,000 deaths in the United States alone, and I-- that's some very nice research, Ms. Andata, but I'm afraid it's not relevant to your motion, which is hereby denied."

"You're a smart girl." "I'm sure you'll figure something out." "But right now I've got somewhere else I need to be." "(Explosion)" "Aah!" "(Alarm sounding)" "(Grunts)" "(Man) Holding cell 4." "We got a breach in holding cell 4." "(Frost) All right, Mark." "If you want to save Demetri, you're gonna have to come to me alone." "Head north on highway 57 into the Antelope Valley." "At the 31st mile marker, you're gonna turn right on an unmarked dirt road." "Follow the road 5 miles till it comes to an end." "I left a compass for you in the glove compartment." "Get a bearing north and start walking towards the Temachapi Mountains for 1 mile." "If you make any outgoing calls, or if anyone follows you," "Demetri will die." "No dental records, no identifying scars." "Even his fingerprints were scrubbed off." "Scrubbed off?" "This guy definitely did not want to be identified." "Come on, man." "Throw us a bone, huh?" "Is there anything distinct here or unusual?" "Demetri is running out of time." "Well, there is this." "Look at the limbic system-- huge hippocampus." "I'm thinking our John Doe could have been some kind of savant." "Savant." "Savants can develop an enlarged hippocampus related to their incredible memory capacity." "(Vreede) What, like a "rain man" sort of thing?" "Exactly." "Yeah, no, I'm sorry." "I've never seen this man in my life." "You sure?" "Mm-hmm." "Well, there's a box of stuff we found under his bed in the shelter." "It had an address book in it." "Perhaps there's something in there that'll explain his connection to you." "I'd do anything to help Demetri, but I'm not connected to him." "Olivia, you are." "You just don't know how." "(Bird screeching in distance)" "(Panting)" "So here we are again, Mark." "Time for you and me to save the world." "(Cocks gun)" "You got my messages and followed the instructions." "I'm impressed." "So I'm flattered." "Where's Demetri?" "Most of my associates wanted you dead months ago." "But I resisted because I wanted to see things through to this day." "Why me?" "Because I don't trust the rest of the FBI." "Nor should you." "We found a mole." "(Laughs) And you think that makes you safe?" "You have no idea." "Here." "Put those on, and we'll talk." "Mind if I have a little water first?" "Be my guest." "At this point, it's Demetri's minutes you're burning." "(Spits and grunts) (Gunshot)" "Gasoline!" "It burns!" "Siphoned from the gas tank." "Aah!" "Get up!" "Uhh!" "No more games, Frost." "Where's Demetri?" "This is not the way it was supposed to play out!" "Yeah, building seven." "That's it?" "There's gotta be at least a million building sevens in all of Los Angeles, and how do we even know it is Los Angeles?" "I'll run it through the system." "And of course, Alda could be lying." "Demetri told me-- (Computer beeps, typing)" "He warned me about-- Zoey, stop." "Sit, please." "I'm gonna have Janis flag every building seven in the vicinity of your house, the FBI and the wedding chapel." "We'll start there, and we'll keep sweeping until we find him." "How?" "How could you possibly do that in time?" "We have the most sophisticated search technology in the world and a team of agents who won't rest until he's back safely." "We're gonna find him." "Listen to me!" "I'm tired of playing around, Frost!" "Where's Demetri?" "You already know where he is!" "I gave Charlie all the answers!" "You gave my Charlie the answers?" "!" "What the hell are you talking about?" "Get up." "Get up." "Get up!" "Start walking." "We're running out of time." "I know!" "The whole world is!" "Quiet." "Walk!" "But in the end, you're gonna be saved by the lady you see every day." "What are you talking about, huh?" "What?" "Start walking." "Listen!" "Listen carefully to what I'm about to tell you." "Move!"

"Savants are referred to me from all over the country, and any number of them have eidetic skills.." "That's photographic memory" "Some of my patients are like human video cameras."
