• Russell Logan : It's no wonder your boyfriend split.

  Tess Seaton : Wasn't my boyfriend. We just went out a few times.

  Russell Logan : Amazing it lasted that long!

• Russell Logan : [Opens a box filled with grenades and other explosives]  A buddy on the bomb squad gave me this stuff for a rainy day. Channing can't do anything to us without using somebody else's body. So everyone he sends at us, we're gonna send right back!

  Tess Seaton : That's great. What are we gonna do? Blow up the whole city?

• Tess Seaton : Hey, asshole!

  [Smacks Patrick across the face with a metal bar, sending him falling off the platform] 

• Tess Seaton : I saw you on TV celebrating a man's execution, like it was a party. Bye bye, Patrick. Adios. Good riddance. Except, he's back. You might have executed his body, but his spirit has been released.

  Russell Logan : Oh, I see. His "spirit"?

  Tess Seaton : Yes, his spirit. And I am frightened. I am VERY frightened.

  Russell Logan : Thank you for coming in, Miss Seaton.

  Tess Seaton : Don't patronize me, I am not some crackpot!

• Tess Seaton : [after Mazza tries to follow Tess, she confronts him]  Looking for something?

  Mazza : Are you crazy, lady?

  Tess Seaton : Don't bother lying. It's all over your aura.

  Mazza : My what?

  Tess Seaton : If you're lonely, try computer dating. But leave ME alone, or I'll call the cops!

• Russell Logan : You're gonna listen to me, and I don't want any more horseshit! No more goblins, no more tooth fairies... you're gonna tell me about your friends!

  Tess Seaton : What are you talking about?

  Russell Logan : This yuppie psychic routine just doesn't cut it!
