- Ezra Standish: If I may, allow me to interview the deputy.
- Buck: Why you?
- Ezra Standish: Don't take this the wrong way, but you gentlemen occasionally lack the essential skills of tact and diplomacy.
- Buck: What are you saying?
- Josiah: I think he's sayin' we're rude.
- Ezra Standish: Rude? No, rude would be a definite improvement. I'm sayin' you scare people and perhaps terrorizing them won't buy you any answers this time.
- Vin: What do you got in mind?
- Ezra Standish: I believe a little subtlety is in order.
- Warden: When you address me or any guard in this camp you use the proper appellation: "Sir."
- Chris Larabee: Proper what?
- Warden: You have a talent for making trouble. I don't like that.
- Chris Larabee: I'll work on it, sir.
