- Liz Ortecho: Michael outscored me on every AP exam. He... I thought he would get some scholarship, change the world.
- Max Evans: I don't think Michael likes the world enough to bother changing it.
- Liz Ortecho: It's been a long time.
- Max Evans: Ten years.
- Liz Ortecho: You're still in Roswell.
- Max Evans: And you're finally back.
- Liz Ortecho: You wanted to be a writer. You remember that? So why did you join the force?
- Max Evans: Why does anybody do anything?
- Max Evans: Everything I've ever done has been to protect Isobel and you!
- Michael Guerin: Everything you've ever done has been to protect yourself!
- Isobel Evans: Fall in love with someone else, Max. Anyone else.
- Max Evans: It's been ten years, Iz. If I could have, I would have.
- Liz Ortecho: Your squamous epithelial cells are not human.
- Max Evans: Of course you stole my cells.
- Liz Ortecho: Magical healing does not make sense to me. DNA does.
- Michael Guerin: Look, Max trusts Liz. But if he's wrong, you're gonna have to do something about it.
- Isobel Evans: No. I don't do that anymore. I don't mess with people's minds.
- Michael Guerin: If I could do it, I would. But I can't, so start preparing yourself. Because if Liz Ortecho turns on any of us, you will get inside of her head and erase it. Make her leave Roswell... leave Max. Just like you did ten years ago.
- Alex Manes: I thought for sure when I got back from Iraq you would be long gone.
- Michael Guerin: Is that what you want?
- Alex Manes: We're not kids anymore. What I want doesn't matter.
- Max Evans: Right now, what you're feeling is an echo of what I feel for you. It'll wear off, just like the handprint will.
- Liz Ortecho: When will the handprint fade?
- Max Evans: Couple days, maybe a week.
- Liz Ortecho: Fine. I'll kiss you then.
