Quotes
-
Sylvie Brett : Can I talk to you?
Capp : I'll take a break.
Sylvie Brett : That sucks. What do you mean, don't get involved? It's not like they stop being people when the call ends.
Kelly Severide : Shay got overly invested with someone she met on a call. Guy ends up blowing his brains out. You never know what's really going on.
Sylvie Brett : Well... I just treated a meth head with a tuning fork stuck in his eye, and even that guy stepped up and called 911 to save his buddy. You quit giving somebody a second chance, they stop having one. I need your help on this.

Sylvie Brett : You mind if we come in?
Katherine Keating : Sure.
Sylvie Brett : Just want to ask you a few questions.
Katherine Keating : About what?
Sylvie Brett : What was Archie doing on the balcony alone?
Katherine Keating : He was spying on the apartment below ours.
Kelly Severide : Why didn't you just say that?
Katherine Keating : You have kids?
Kelly Severide : Mm-mm.
Katherine Keating : My mom used to take my brother and me to the bar with her. O'Henry's. When she'd get liquored up, she'd shame us in front of whoever was there. I swore I would never let that happen to my kid, not ever.
Sylvie Brett : You've been sober for a while, right?
Katherine Keating : Two years, three months.
Sylvie Brett : Do you have a chip, by any chance? And your sponsor, when was the last time you spoke to him?
Katherine Keating : It's a woman.
[shows Brett her phone]
Katherine Keating : 15 minutes ago.
Kelly Severide : You mentioned a restarting order against your ex.
Katherine Keating : Yeah.
Kelly Severide : You got a copy? You mind if I take a look in your fridge?
Katherine Keating : Go on.
[she opens her fridge]
Katherine Keating : They're organic. I feed Archie right, which isn't easy to do on 11 bucks an hour at a nail salon. You have any other questions?
Sylvie Brett : Thank you. We just needed to know who we were going to bat for.

Cal McGuinn : Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it. We both work for the city, so can I toss you a bone? Because this is personal for you.
Sylvie Brett : Personal for me? No, no, no, this is personal for a little boy and his mom who've been put through hell because the system, meaning you, is too jammed up to give a damn about them. You have the power to make a difference, and you are going to *make* that difference by taking their folder off the bottom of your pile and putting it on top. And I'm not leaving until you do.
[he glares at her]
Sylvie Brett : Yeah.
[sits down, takes out protein bar]
Sylvie Brett : This will last me at least... five hours.
[Brett starts eating the protein bar. McGuinn takes out the Keating file]
