Jake: You should have made sure somebody was with you.
Chris: I couldn't find anybody. Besides, I wanted to do it alone.

Chris: I thought they were locked.
Jake: Did you check? You should have checked them make sure they were locked.
Chris: I know,I know. I should have been more careful.

Jake: No.
Chris: This was not an accident. Someone might be trying to scare me.
Jake: Do you have any idea who it might have been.
Chris: It might have been Terry.
Jake: It couldn't been Terry.
Chris: Why not?
Jake: I saw Terry at the Nature Center.
Chris: What was he doing there?
Jake: I am not sure, but I'll find out. Let's get you home.

Chris: Where are you going? Don't leave me here alone.
Jake: I keep a chest of ice with some soda in my office. Do you want some soda too?
Chris: Okay… Oh,I feel I am such an idiot.
Jake: You should have told me about your ankle. We might have stopped the swelling.
Chris: Jake.
Jake: Yeah?
Chris: I'm glad you're here.
Jake: So am I, Chris. How does that feel?
Chris: Cold.

Jake: I'm still working with him.
Chris: Remember the day he threw his glove out?
Jake: Not really. What does that have to do with anything?
Chris: Terry has Roger's glove, or one just like it.
