- "Look, you wanna help me? Help me find a job. Tell me what to say when they ask me how old I am. Or about my work experience, or or or, tell me how to explain that 58 year old gap on my resume. Everyone says that the world has changed for the better, and that people don't judge you by the color of your skin. Well let me tell you something, I'm still being judged, and you're sitting there asking me... about my relationship with my parents?"
- ―Richard Tyler

Quotes[]
- Barbara Yates: The rash of violence involving the 4400 continues. Sources tell us Homeland Security is investigating a possible connection between the Friday Harbor murders and an undisclosed returnee.
- Dennis Ryland: That hypocritical, self-righteous, irresponsible bitch...
- Diana Skouris: I take it he doesn't like her show.
- Tom Baldwin: He doesn't like her.
- Jordan Collier: Well, what can l do for you this afternoon, Lily '93? Don't worry, it's not a line. Though you're the most attractive abductee I've met all afternoon. I'm Jordan Collier. l'm throwing this party.
- Dennis Ryland: You want to talk about the old days? In the old days, I would need a warrant to tap all your phones, to freeze all your assests and to prevent you from ever being a passenger on any airline in the world. But like you say, it's not the old days anymore. Now you've worked for Barbara Yates for a long time, since the beginning, and I'm guessing that you know where the bodies are buried. Draw me a map.
- Diana Skouris: Maybe he can't control everything they do. What if Knox can force people to kill, but only by convincing them they really are the Friday Harbor killer.
- Dennis Ryland: You're getting in the way of my job Barbara. If you're going to continue to interfere with the Department of Homeland Security, I'd advise you to tread lightly.
