Emily: "Mary...?"

Markus: "I'll check upstairs just in case."

James: "I wouldn't worry about it too much, crumbcake. She probably just went out for a drink or something. And forgot to tell us. She'll probably come stumbling in here later on, drunk as a rat..."
Andy: "James..."
James: "Yes?"

Markus: "Nobody upstairs."
Andy: "I'm sure everything's fine, angel."
Emily: "I don't want to be alone..."
Andy: "We'll stay here until she gets back if you'd like... Excuse me for just a moment, I've got a call coming in."

Andy: "Andrew Stone... yes, who is this? ..."

Andy: "Is this some kind of sick joke?"

Andy: "You're out of your fucking mind! I'm calling the police...."

Andy: "You won't get away with this."

Andy: "Emily... my god... I'm so sorry. He took her... that bastard took her."
Emily: "What are you saying?"
Andy: "Mary's been kidnapped."
Emily: "That's not funny, Andy."
Andy: "I wish I was joking, sweetheart."

Andy: "I feel responsible for this- neither of you would be in this situation if it weren't for me."

Andy: "We'll take care of this, we'll get her back. Shhhhh... it's going to be ok."

Andy: "I gather you've all figured out what's going on. Ok let's start brainstorming, people. I need to hear some ideas so we can get this rescue underway."
James: "I always wondered what a super hero board meeting would be like."

James: "Hey Markus, wasn't your grandmother Jamaican? Maybe you could find some sort of, I don't know, voodoo spell that can help us find out where they're hiding."
Markus: "You're trippin'."

Andy: "Obviously the first step is to gather as much information as possible- who did this, where are they keeping her, and so on. I know a lot of people in this town, I'll check with my contacts right away. Once we find out where she is, we'll meet back here and go over our options- how long do you think you'll need to come up with a preliminary plan?"
Tristan: "Probably at least the rest of the day tomorrow, wouldn't you think, James?"
James: "Oh certainly."
Andy: "We'll plan on meeting back here first thing tomorrow evening then."

Emily: "Why do we have to wait so long to do any of this?"
Tristan: "For this to work, we really need to do it under cover of darkness. It's getting really late tonight already."
James: "It's probably best not to rush things..."
Tristan: "Mistakes could happen..."

Emily: "So you just want to leave her out there? I can't believe you people."
Andy: "I'm afraid they're right. We can't risk having anything go wrong- imagine how you'd feel if something were to happen to Mary because we got ahead of ourselves?"
James: "Then again..."

Emily: "Markus, what do you think?"
Markus: "I have to agree with them. We don't even know who took her yet."

Markus: "Though to be perfectly honest, I'm not 100% clear on why we're not calling the cops."
Andy: "The kidnapper told me he'd kill Mary on the spot if he saw any police. I have to believe he'd do it."

Emily: "Can't you just give him what he wants? He'd have to let her go if you just paid him the ransom."
James: "If the hours I've wasted watching cop dramas have taught me anything it's that paying the ransom just encourages them, sugarbun."

Andy: "So you're all clear on what you have to do? We'll all meet back here tomorrow evening. Make sure you try to get some sleep between now and then, I need you all to be fresh."

Andy: "I'll stay here tonight with Emily. You all have my cell number if you need something."

James: "To the batcave!"
