- Det. Gary Walker: [Don and Walker are driving down an alley after a suspect] Hey Eppes, you ever play Polo?
- Don Eppes: All right, here we go! Giddyap!
- [steps on the gas]
- Don Eppes: [Walker opens the car door so it slams against the bad guy as they drive past, they get out to cuff him] Well, that's your sport, Gary! The boy's out cold!
- Alan Eppes: [a pumpkin falls in the background and shatters on the ground like glass, startling Alan] What the hell was that?
- Dr. Larry Fleinhardt: A Cal Sci Tradition. Every Halloween the students drop pumpkins from the highest point on campus.
- Alan Eppes: From the roof of the library?
- [Another pumpkins shatters]
- Dr. Larry Fleinhardt: Yeah, the tradition further holds that the pumpkins be dipped in liquid nitrogen to intensify the explosion.
- Alan Eppes: Well in that case, I'm starting a new tradition: The frightened student dash.
- [Runs down the stairs as another pumpkin drops]
- Charlie Eppes: [Charlie walks in to his office to find his dad and Larry pulling pumpkins out of a liquid nitrogen bath] Oh no, please don't tell me you're encouraging this.
- Alan Eppes: Now, don't blame Larry. This was my idea.
- Dr. Larry Fleinhardt: Yeah, your father though it would help him connect to the younger students.
- Charlie Eppes: Well then, what's your excuse?
- Dr. Larry Fleinhardt: I just like watching things explode.
- Amita Ramanujan: [Amita almost bumps into Larry headed out with a frozen pumpkin] Whoa. What's all that about?
- Charlie Eppes: The two great adult influences in my life are heading off to blow up pumpkins.
- Det. Gary Walker: That's what I like about the new generation, they got an answer for everything.
- Don Eppes: I don't have an answer for dating a co-worker though.
- Det. Gary Walker: [looks through break room window at Megan, David, and Colby] Reeves? You and Reeves?
- Don Eppes: No no no, you didn't know I was dating Liz Warner?
- Det. Gary Walker: [raises eyebrows] Ooh ho ho!
- David Sinclair: [David and Colby had been chewed out by Don for screwing up earlier, now talking to the son of another suspect] Well how about you tell him to come outside anyway?
- [Suspect's son shoves him, David throws him up against the car]
- David Sinclair: [Colby helps David throw the guy onto the car, brings around his arm to cuff him] Who says we're out of sync?
