• Logan : Did you ever see Francis 8?

  Francis : I never even visited Nursery before tonight.

  Logan : You know, when you question, it slows you down.

  Francis : I don't know. What makes you so curious? Do you know who his seed mother was?

  Logan : Of course not! I'm curious, not sick!

• Francis : Logan... you renewed!

• Logan : [after Francis looks angrily at a Red]  Look, why were you so angry just now? What did he do to you?

  Francis : That Red's gonna run, I can always tell.

• Francis : Aw, what the hell took you so long?

  Logan : It was the debriefing, uh... it ws more complicated than usual.

  Francis : Well, c'mon. Get in the water.

  Logan : Francis, did you - did you ever SEE anybody renew?

  Francis : Ha ha! I think you've been skulking out too much. First nursery, now silly qustions.

  Logan : No, but - did you?

  Francis : Did I what?

  Logan : See anybody renew.

  Francis : Of course!

  Logan : Anybody we know?

  Francis : Look, get into the water. You need it. More than I do.

  Logan : Francis, I have to talk to you... Well, I'll see you.

• Francis : [to Logan]  Runner... you are terminated.

• Francis : Sandman always renew, I know.

  Logan : But, you don't know. You just assume. One for one. What everyone's been taught to believe. One for one.

  Francis : Well, why not? That's exactly how everything works. It keeps everything in balance. One is terminated. One is born. It's simple, logical, perfect. Do you have a better system?

• Francis : [wondering about the Red he and Logan terminated]  He showed some life in the end. Why do they run?

• [first lines] 

  Logan : [tapping on a glass window of maternity room]  Wake up.

  Francis : Logan, you are here. I couldn't believe it when they told me. What are you doing?

  Logan : [indicates baby]  Logan 6. Well it's not everyday that they authorize a new sandman. I tell you Francis,

  [indicating baby] 

  Logan : that's him.

  Francis : Well maybe, maybe not. What does it matter? Anyway, he isn't yours anymore.

  Logan : [continues tapping lightly on the glass] 

  Francis : All right, you want me to wake him?

  [bangs loudly on the glass with his baton] 

  Francis : [alarms ring and lights flash] 

• Francis : Logan, you wonder a lot. Too much for a Sandman!

• Logan : I might look in on the New You myself. Number 43.

  Francis : Why?

  Logan : It was that runner. I think he got a face change on last day. So, somebody in 43 was trying to help him.

  Francis : Check it out.
