Mac Taylor quotes from CSI: NY

Mac

There were a lot of angry people around here. Death threats against Keith and his family. They were eventually forced to move away.

Lindsay

Looks like someone welcomed him back to the neighborhood.

Danny

How is it possible that a guy who murdered an eight-year-old boy turns into this model citizen?

Mac

All right. Maybe Milner wasn't the guy that everyone thought he was.

Danny

What do you mean?

Mac

There were a lot of bosses and experienced detectives calling the shots on that case. No one was very interested in the... opinion of a young detective. It always bothered me that he was the only suspect from day one. He was the perfect guy for them.

Jo

I'm not quite sure how to say this, and I might be overstepping my bounds.

Mac

But you're gonna say it anyway.

Jo

I am. You've been back to work for over a month. And I've been going through Leonard Brooks' arson case, prepping for court. There were 200 reports in that folder, and not one of them has been written by you. And every court date you've had, you've had someone else take your notes and testify. That's just not like you, Mac. What's going on?

Mac

You're right. You're overstepping your bounds.

Jo

Mac, if something's wrong...

Mac

Nothing's wrong. Just doing what I should have been doing all along. I'm delegating. That's what bosses do.

Lindsay

We get it. You wanted to avenge the murder of your son.

Mac

But if you were man enough to kill him, be man enough to take responsibility for it.

Do you trust me, Mac?

Mac

You even have to ask me that?

I think I do. Um, I had coffee with Jo earlier. She's worried about you, and I am, too.

Mac

Well, I'll tell you what I told her... I'm fine.

That's what I said, 'cause our relationship is based on trust, and if you had a problem, you would have come to me and we would have worked it out together, right?

Mac

That's right.

I just want you to look me in the eye and tell me nothing's wrong.

Mac

What the hell is this, Christine?

It's really simple. Just look me in the eye and tell me.

Mac

I don't appreciate my integrity being called into question.

I didn't come here to question your integrity. I came here because I care about you.

Jo

[after the crew observes the crime scene] So, we've got a castle and a princess...

Mac Taylor

And an unhappy ending.

Jo

Mac?

Mac

Another gun?

Jo

(Shows him the body of a young woman) Another murder.

Mac

She was killed with a rock.

Hawkes

Specifically, Manhattan schist. Which doesn't help us, 'cause the city's full of it.

Sid

Stomach contents revealed traces of arothron hispidus, also known as puffer fish.

Mac

Very expensive sushi.

Sid

And delicious. Her last meal was to die for.

Adam

I found particles combined of nickel, iron and olivine.

Mac

Space dust.

Adam

That's right, M.T. okay? This is not of this earth.

Mac

Give me some good news.

Jo

My 14-year-old daughter broke up with her boyfriend.

Mac

A poor girl trying to look rich.

Jo

Cinderella story.

Mac

Last week, I was a bit short with you.

Jo

You made your point. Already forgotten.

Danny

You ever see me rip up a check for 50 grand, do me a favor and shoot me.

Mac

Consider it done.
