- [Nick is complaining about not being able to get a warrant for a search]
- Gil Grissom: You're a grown man, Nick. Stop whining.
- [Grissom tells her not to make her cases personal]
- Sara Sidle: I wish I was like you, Grissom. I wish I didn't feel anything.
- Catherine Willows: It was a job, Ed, and it supported you just like every job I've had, including this one.
- Eddie Willows: Yeah, and who paid to close up your nose.
- Catherine Willows: You are such a pig.
- [fight gets physical until Grissom breaks it up]
- Gil Grissom: Sara. Do you have any diversions?
- Sara Sidle: Do I what?
- Gil Grissom: You max out on overtime every month. You go home and listen to your police scanner. You read forensic textbooks.
- Sara Sidle: Yeah.
- Gil Grissom: Look. Every day we meet people on the worst day of their lives. It's a lot to deal with. Everyone who's had any time on this job knows that you have to have a diversion in order to cope with what we see. What do you do for fun?
- Sara Sidle: I chase rabbits.
- [pauses]
- Sara Sidle: And... I read crime books. And I listen to the scanner.
- Gil Grissom: You need something outside of law enforcement. Catherine has her kid, you know? I sometimes ride roller coasters. What do you do?
- Sara Sidle: Nothing.
- Gil Grissom: Okay. What do you like?
- Sara Sidle: I don't like anything.
- Gil Grissom: You've gotta find something to like. You can't get too close to the victims.
- Sara Sidle: She's special... to me. I can't help it.
- Gil Grissom: If you don't find something, they'll all become special and you'll burn out.
