Linus: What are you doing? You're getting them to like you?
Camille: I kinda thought that was the point.
Linus: But they like you too much. I mean, how am I supposed to dump you?
Camille: I thought I was dumping you.
Linus: Oh that's so emasculating! Alright, whatever, just reel it in.

Camille: Good morning people! Isn't it a great day to be alive?
Cameron: You're a happy camper today.
Camille: Yeah, cause the last time I was in here we almost died and now the sun is shining, flowers blooming. Greatest team in the world! Churros for everyone!

Cameron: Here's something you need to get, we might die and that is something you're going to have to face sooner or later. I'm under the impression that dying is kind of a big deal, Kirsten.
Kirsten: Can we just talk about stuff we know about?
Cameron: [getting angry and slamming Kirsten's laptop shut] I know about this. What I was ten years old I have heart surgery. Remember that scar? I needed a valve replaced, the doctor said I had less than a fifty percent change of living. My parents didn't think I'd survive, but when I did they were very grateful, but they were very scared. They didn't want me overexerting myself. The playground? Forget it. Sports? Cameron's too fragile for that, they thought if I overexerted myself that it would kill me. So this scar is a constant reminder of how fragile life is and how fragile my parents thought I was.
Kirsten: Well I think you have proven them wrong, several times over.

Everyone I care about is in here with me.

Camille

Kirsten: Am I interrupting?
Maggie: No. Actually I'm glad you're here, I have something for you.
Kirsten: What?
Maggie: [handing Kirsten half of a photograph] Your birthday present.
Kirsten: This is my present?
Maggie: [handing over the other half of the photograph] No, this is your present.
Kirsten: You knew my mother?
Maggie: I worked with her when I was first administrating the stitchers program.
Kirsten: But she never worked at the program.
Maggie: She did. In fact your mother was one of the original designers of our technology along with Ed.
Kirsten: And my father.
Maggie: Kirsten, Ed and your mother were the real visionaries behind stitchers.
Kirsten: [shaking her head] But that's not.
Maggie: [interrupting Kirsten] What you were lead to believe, I know. The reality is that your father couldn't keep up with Ed and your mother and compensated by taking credit for her work after she died.
Kirsten: So your birthday gift to me is to shatter what few beliefs I have about what little I can remember about my past? Oh, you shouldn't have.
Maggie: You've been asking for the truth, now you have it.

Camille: Are you scared?
Linus: Yes.
Camille: Me too.

Camille: There are two things in the world that terrify me: rats and hairy backs.

It's my birthday and I can stitch if I want too.

Kirsten

Camille: So?
Kirsten: Context, please.
Camille: Liam, what did you tell him when he proposed?
Kirsten: I told him I needed to think about it.
Camille: Smart move. No sense at all in committing to the one guy on the planet who loves impossible you exactly as you are. What do you think you're going to tell him?
Kirsten: I'm not sure, and assuming you haven't blabbed to everyone here, don't say anything. I haven't told anyone else that Liam proposed.

So we're bringing someone who worked with deadly viruses and died under mysterious circumstances into the lab? What could possibly go wrong?

Camille

Kirsten: [to Cameron] Thank you.
Cameron: For what?
Kirsten: For not being a nobody.

Cameron: Don't worry, I gave Kirsten a safe word. [pauses] Help.
Camille: Oh perfect, they won't know what she means.

Stitchers Season 1 Quotes

Kirsten: how long have I been in this room?
Maggie: Answer the question.
Kirsten: I'm trying to. How long have I been in this room?
Maggie: Guess.
Kirsten: An hour?
Maggie: One minute. [smiling and leaning in] You really don't know, do you?
Kirsten: I have this condition, it's called temporal dysplasia. I have no time perception.
Maggie: I've read about this condition. I thought it was made up.
Kirsten: I wish, cause then you could unmake it up; it really sucks. I use memory, logic and math to approximate time difference, but I don't know what time feels like.

Kristen: Why is he here? Are you guys coroners?
Cameron: No. He's here to share his memories with us.
Kirsten: But he's dead.
Cameron: Hmm. Fun fact: After death, consciousness lingers for 30 seconds. After that, 10 minutes and the brain starts to degrade. If we get a sample in here fast enough, we can start a protocol that will slow down further deterioration for days.
Kirsten: Sample? You mean corpse?
Cameron: Tomato/Tamato.
Kirsten: You're getting this guys dead, deteriorating brain to talk to you? How?
Cameron: By inserting a living consciousness into those memories. We call it stitching.
Kirsten: That's impossible.
Cameron: Is that so, doctor I've never studied neuroscience unlike Cameron. The brain is a bioelectrical device with emphasis on electrical. Even after death the wiring, the synapses are all still in there, for a while anyway, and that means so are the memories, but it takes a living consciousness to access them and interpret them and that's where you come in.
