QMI Manager : We need to discuss the Loftin case.
Sameen Shaw : Caucasian male, 83, presented with acute pneumonia.
QMI Manager : I know the case, Dr. Shaw. I also know about your interaction with the Loftin family. You walked into the waiting room eating an energy bar and proceeded to tell the Loftin family that their father was dead.
Sameen Shaw : Because he was.
QMI Manager : And, presumably, you were hungry. You managed to revive Mr. Loftin four times. You went to truly heroic measures to save their father, and yet, all the Loftin family will remember is the doctor who gave them the worst possible news while she was eating a candy bar.

QMI Manager : Let me ask you this Do you care if your patients live or die?
Sameen Shaw : Of course.
QMI Manager : But does it hurt you? I've been watching you for some time, and it doesn't seem to bother you.
Sameen Shaw : This place is filled with doctors who don't care if their patients live or die.
QMI Manager : No, this place is filled with doctors who pretend they don't care. But you're different. Aren't you? Your attendings all say the same thing about you - technically brilliant. Remarkably calm. They can't spot what you really are.
Sameen Shaw : And what's that?
QMI Manager : You know the DSM backwards and forwards, Doctor. You probably diagnosed yourself in your first year. A diagnosis which meant that you never should have been accepted into this program.
Sameen Shaw : I watch the others. I watch the fear creep into them. I watch them make mistakes, and you think these feelings that I'm lacking make them better? You'd really rather have one of them working on you instead of me?
QMI Manager : Yes. Because if If the only thing motivating you is technical mastery, when one of your patients needs you the most, then this job just might start to bore you. That's the difference between fixing and healing. You have a brilliant mind, Sameen. And you're very gifted. But you'll never be a doctor.

Sameen Shaw : We should be going after Simmons. Reese got his location.
Harold Finch : Sometimes you have to make choices, Ms. Shaw. We've already lost a friend. I don't intend to lose another - not tonight.
Sameen Shaw : I can't believe we're gonna let him get away.
Root : The machine never said Reese was the only one planning to kill Simmons.
-
Harold Finch : Did you see Reese?
Sameen Shaw : Gone by the time I got here.
Harold Finch : We have to stop him.
Sameen Shaw : Why? One less dirty cop-killing cop sounds good to me.
Harold Finch : Setting aside your somewhat binary moral compass, Ms. Shaw, you should know that Mr. Reese's injuries are life-threatening.
Sameen Shaw : All right, Harold. We'll play it your way. But if Reese doesn't wanna be found, our only way of tracking him is by finding Simmons ourselves.
-
Sameen Shaw : We got a problem.
Harold Finch : You couldn't find Mr. Ransone?
Sameen Shaw : We found what's left of him. Someone used him as an ashtray before putting a bullet through his head.
Detective Lionel Fusco : Reese has really gone off the reservation this time.
Sameen Shaw : Nah, Reese doesn't even smoke.

Sameen Shaw : [after Root finishes shooting a group of armed Russians through the 2 inch wide panes of glass in a door wile standing 2 feet away from the door] OK, that was hot.

Yorke : [Hanging from the ceiling] Take me down, you bitch! I told you everything I know.
Yorke : [Fusco and Finch walk in]
Yorke : Hey! Hey, hey. Hey, guys, call the cops!
Sameen Shaw : You wanna take a crack at him? My gun hand's cramping.
Detective Lionel Fusco : Guy's not looking so good. Did you break his legs?
