Dale Horvath
- [Dale quotes a line by William Faulkner about time]
- Dale Horvath: I like... I like what, um, a father said to his son when he gave him a watch that had been handed down through generations. He said, 'I give you the mausoleum of all hope and desire, which will fit your individual needs no better than it did mine or my father's before me; I give it to you not that you may remember time, but that you may forget it for a moment now and then and not spend all of your breath trying to conquer it.'
- Amy: [the group remains silent] You are so weird.
- Dale Horvath: [the group laughs] It's not me. It's Faulkner. William Faulkner. Maybe my bad paraphrasing.
- [Andrea searches through Dale's RV for any kind of colored paper]
- Andrea: Wrapping paper, color tissue, anything?
- Dale Horvath: Seriously?
- Andrea: How can you not have any?
- Dale Horvath: Had I been informed of the impending apocalypse I'd have stocked up.
- [the group at the campsite confront Jim about his digging]
- Morales: Dale says you've been out here for hours.
- Jim: So?
- Shane Walsh: So why are you digging? Are you heading to China, Jim?
- Jim: [Shane chuckles] What does it matter? I'm not hurting anyone.
- Dale Horvath: Yeah, except maybe yourself.
- [Andrea tells Dale it's Amy's birthday tomorrow]
- Andrea: It's Amy's birthday tomorrow. I've been marking days on the calendar just to make sure.
- Andrea: [Andrea shows Dale the mermaid necklace] You don't give a gift unwrapped.
- Dale Horvath: [Dale smiles] Deep breath. I'm sure I'll find something here.
- [Morales and Jacqui question Dale about his watch]
- Morales: I've got to ask you, man. It's been driving me crazy.
- Dale Horvath: What?
- Morales: That watch.
- Dale Horvath: [Dale smiles] What's wrong with my watch?
- Morales: I see you every day, the same time, winding that thing like a village priest saying mass.
- Jacqui: [Morales smiles] I've wondered this myself.
- Dale Horvath: I'm missing the point.
- Jacqui: [Jacqui smiles] Unless I've misread the signs, the world seems to have come to an end. At least hit a speed bump for a good long while.
- Morales: But there's you every day winding that stupid watch.
- Dale Horvath: Time... It's important to keep track, isn't it? The days at least.
