Quotes 

• Ichabod Crane : [to Abbie who is unconscious in the hospital]  Lieutenant. Your duty in this battle is now to heal. This is not your time, dear friend.

• Ichabod Crane : [Still under the influence of anesthesia and in a dentist's chair, Abbie has just shown him an emoji of him riding an eagle that Zoe sent to him. Near tears, he can barely speak]  I'm adorable.

• Abbie Mills : [to Crane who is in the dentist's chair still under the influence of anesthesia]  The dentist said cut back on the gummy bears. And come back in six months for a cleaning.

  Ichabod Crane : [a dental assistant hands Crane a packet with toothpaste and a toothbrush. He is overcome]  A gift.

  [He takes her hand and rests his head against her forearm] 

  Ichabod Crane : Oh, thank you. You've given me so much.

  [the assistant gently pulls away and leaves] 

  Ichabod Crane : She's given me so much joy.

• Abbie Mills : [Staring at Crane who is idly playing a video game]  Your citizenship test is at the end of the month.

  Ichabod Crane : Lieutenant, if I have not belabored the point, I do not need to study history... I lived it.

  Abbie Mills : You know they're gonna test you on events that happened after 1781.

  Ichabod Crane : They offer you four options for every query--multiple choice. It's practically a parlor game.

  Abbie Mills : Hmm.

  [Walks over and sits down next to him] 

  Abbie Mills : Pop quiz. On what date was the Declaration of Independence ratified?

  Ichabod Crane : July the 2nd, 1776.

  Abbie Mills : [Imitates buzzer sound]  July Fourth... You know, Independence Day. Picnics, hot dogs, fireworks. Land of the drunk and free.

  Ichabod Crane : Yes, I'm perfectly aware of the holiday. 'Tis a symbolic representation. It need not be precise. No, the historically accurate date is July the 2nd. I should know--I attended the second Continental Congress.

  Abbie Mills : I don't doubt it, Crane, but you're not being tested on what happened--you are being tested on what is in Civics Today!

  [throwing the book onto his lap] 

  Ichabod Crane : Oh, so 'tis not disgraceful enough hat I must implore to become a citizen of the country I, in part, founded, I must also learn by rote a compendium of solecisms masquerading as our nation's history.

  Abbie Mills : [unmoved and deadpan]  Welcome to America.

  [Looks at his phone] 

  Abbie Mills : Also, you got a text from Zoe.

  Ichabod Crane : [Crane grabs his phone surreptitiously]  Ah, Miss Corinth has proofread my N400 form and says 'tis good to go. I must say, she has made navigating the choppy briny of citizenship a far more bearable undertaking.

  Abbie Mills : At a rate of twenty texts an hour, I should hope that she's steering you in the right direction...

  Ichabod Crane : How do you know...?

  Abbie Mills : We share a roof, Crane... I know a lot of things I cannot unknow.

  Ichabod Crane : On the subject of invaluable communication, when pray tell did you intend to inform Miss Jenny that you've located your father?

  Abbie Mills : Hey!

  Ichabod Crane : Things I cannot unknow.

  Abbie Mills : Well, it's complicated, Crane. My dad has a whole other life now, a new family. Jenny took it really hard when he left, and she's in a good place now, and I don't wanna throw a wrench in that.

  Ichabod Crane : [sincerely]  You will make the right decision at the right time, Lieutenant.
