"Your son is experiencing a severe dissociative disorder." "Now, it's not uncommon for newly awakened coma patients." "He feels disconnected from his memories, his personality." "Yeah, well, we knew when he woke up there'd be a period of adjustment, but the kid doesn't even know who he is." "I know this is frustrating for you and Linda, but you did the right thing bringing him back here." "Yeah." "So what now?" "More tests?" "We need to do another cranial MRI." "They'll be here in an hour to take him back downstairs." "Look, I know this is difficult, Tom." "But Kyle's come this far." "We can't give up now." "I think I've got the exact change."

"Tony?" "My God, good for him." "It's not with me, is it?" "Nope." "Yeah, I didn't think so." "Is there something else, Maia?" "How long am I going to be like this?" "Like what?" "I don't want to know things before they happen." "I want to be normal, like I used to be." "It's gonna be okay, sweetie." "Besides, I mean, you know, who's normal anyway?" "You are." "Ha." "You want to know a secret?" "Normal people, like me... they just wish they were special like you." "KYLE:" "The television, put it back on." "Kyle, when you came home, you spent all that time looking through your books." "Then the maps, now the TV." "Why don't you tell us what you're looking for, huh?" "Maybe we can help you look, too."

"Maybe not, but it'd make me feel a hell of a lobetter." "Damn it!" "What I don't understand is why Kyle?" "Why didn't they go after Shawn?" "Because our doctors have been over Shawn dozens of times." "Kyle's new territory for 'em." "New territory?" "That's my son you're talking about." "You think I don't know that?" "Can't you call D.C.?" "What in the hell good would that do?" "It was D.C. that put Lytell here the first place." "They're backing his play." "So what then?" "We do nothing?" "I didn't say that."

"There re so many people," "I hardly ever got a chance to play." "Lytell!" "What are you doing here?" "Just talking with Maia." "I'd heard so much about her," "I thought it was time we met." "Stay away from her." "] That's not really your call, now, is it?" "Maia, it was nice talking with you." "We'll do it again soon." "I don't like him." "And he doesn't really like me, either." "Well, don't you worry about him." "Are you sure?" "Oh... you listen to me, Maia." "I am absolutely sure." "I am not gonna let anything bad happen to you, you hear me?" "All right?" "Okay." "Jordan, you have a minute?" "I know why you're here." "Roxanne Kern called me as soon as you left her office." "Look, Richard," "I hope you and Lily aren't blowing this up into something bigger than it is just 'cause some doctor's trying to land on the good side of my checkbook." "Lily and I appreciate everything you've done for us, from the house to my job." "Our lives have been a lot more comfortable since we met." "You're gonna hurt me now, aren't you?"

"I've been doing security checks on everyone who's moved into the mplex." "Well, don't look shocked, Lily." "I mean, consider my position." "A lot of people, including half my own board of directors would love to see me fall on my face here." "A scandal like this would give them the last bit of leverage theyeed to force me out of the company anput themselves back in power." "Richard would ver do anything like this."
