Horatio Caine quotes from CSI: Miami

Frank

No matter how you cut it, divorce sucks.

Horatio

Frank, it's a killer. [Puts on sunglasses.]

Michael

It hurts!

Horatio

Real bullets are funny like that, Michael.

With good behavior, I'll be out in ten years. 30 is the new 20, chief.

Horatio

Inventive.

Horatio

We're looking for your friend with the demon mask.

If I dime him out, that's minus, what, five hundred points?

Horatio

If you don't, it's 25 to life.

Eric

Nothing about this makes sense, the vault's untouched, there are eight telestations filled with cash and they only rob one.

Alexx

Then attempted a rape in the middle of a hot crime. Nothing they've done was logical.

Horatio

Maybe not to us.

Alexx

What's going on Horatio?

Horatio

Alexx, Miami has a new breed of criminal.

Horatio

Mr. Wolfe, they seem to be recreating a game.

Ryan

A video game.

Horatio

Which explains why they robbed a bank and tossed the money.

Ryan

That's why they killed people without provocation, none of this is real to them.

Horatio

It will all be very real soon Mr. Wolfe. Quite real.

Guys, I'd love to help really, but if you want to know what's in the game, well, I suggest you play it.

Horatio

In the meantime Detective Tripp here is going to arrest you for obstruction of justice.

May the best man win.

Horatio

I intend to.

Horatio

This is not about Eric is it? This is about you and me.

I don't have time for this Horatio.

Horatio

I want an answer.

You want an answer.

Horatio

Mmm hum.

Okay I'll give you an answer. Your name wasn't the only one on Lieutenant's list for promotion, I scored better than you, I interviewed better than you, and I don't know what favor you pulled for the chief, but the promotion was mine, now the only thing I can do to make Lieutenant is this IAB crap and everybody hates IAB.

Horatio

Don't punish my lab over it.

I'm just evening the score.

Horatio

This is a dangerous game.

It's one I intend to win.

Alexx

Looking to buy?

Horatio

Not in this lifetime Alexx, there was a piece of sculpture here.

Alexx

What are you thinking?

Horatio

I'm thinking it was the murder weapon.

Alexx

Tell you this, it was personal, fueled by rage.

Horatio

And nobody has more than a rape victim.

Tripp

[To Jim Trinner.] You were banging the neighbor lady and we call that "motive."

Horatio

Yes, we do.

Tripp

Nice business dress. Probably on a break and got caught in the crossfire.

Horatio

That's what happens when worlds collide.

Horatio

Norman Stein.

In the system for an attempted-rape charge last year.

Horatio

Well, welcome to strike two, Norman!

I was the only man for her.

Horatio

But she disagreed with you.

She just needed convincing.

Horatio

So, in order to convince her, you killed her.

You won't believe me, but I didn't come to town to kill her.

Horatio

You're right, I don't believe you.
