Father Halligan
- Faher Halligan: [after Damon is acquitted for George's murder, Gwen is asked to resign from teaching at her Catholic grammar-school] ... Gwen, you know all of us have been moved by your courage during this trying time in your life. Last night, the Board of Directors decided to reward you with a sabatical, so that you could have time to heal properly.
- Gwen Saticoy: I thought the summer vacation would do that.
- Faher Halligan: In my experience, a trial such as the one you've been through can take a long while to heal.
- Gwen Saticoy: So this "healing period" would overlap next year's school calendar?
- Faher Halligan: Well, much as that would be a disappointment to us all, we're willing to sacrifice your tremendous services for the sake of your well-being.
- Gwen Saticoy: [realizes that, in effect, she's being fired] Not to mention the sake of St. Augustine's coffers. What happened, Father Halligan? Did the contributors threaten to cancel those big checks if I'm still teaching their kids?
- Faher Halligan: What the contributors did or didn't do is entirely beside the point.
- Gwen Saticoy: On the contrary, I believe it entirely IS the point.
- Faher Halligan: I TOLD them what a fine teacher you are, and how lucky the school is to have you. In the end, there was nothing else I could do.
- Gwen Saticoy: Wasn't there?
