Don Flack quotes from CSI: NY

Apparently, he and his partner, a guy named Phillip Roth, made a killing during the housing bubble.

Jo

Looks like the killing didn't stop there.

(To Lindsay) I believe... your exact words were: 'one more stop, then we get a bite to eat.'

Lindsay

Yes, and this office is the last stop.

No! no, no, no! You said it on the walk up to the last place. That's one more. This is two.

Lindsay

You are like Danny. You do not listen to what I actually say.

Oh, I listen. I think the problem is you're not saying what you think you're saying. He says that too, doesn't he?

Lindsay

Yeah. Word for word.

(Cuckles) Men and women.

I gotta know, you're a career criminal, you know how this works so what on Earth possessed you to bring your kidnapping victim back to your mother's house?

You saw my mother, she's scarier than we are.

You and your brother are about as smart as bait. Makes your ransom drop plan a little inconsistent.

Why do you say that?

Because it wasn't a stupid plan. You almost had us. So where'd you get the idea? Did you see it on TV or in a movie?

Jo

[while walking down the 187th Street steps] I knew I shouldn't have done the StairMaster this morning.

Mac

It's a long way down.

It's even longer coming up, trust me. 130 steps. Finally counted after the third trip.

I should be in a hospital resting.

Mac

They already gave you a clean bill of health and released you into our custody, Mr. Perfito.

Well, my arm still hurts and my head hurts, too.

How about your pride?

Jo

Ok, I hope y'all are taking notes. First of all I could not stop thinking about these two pieces of violet flavored gum, because I couldn't wrap my head about how the wound up in Jimmy Fillbrook's mouth, and on Greg Barbera's satchel. So I went back to the schedule from the courier service that Greg worked for, and it turns out that his first pick up of the day was across from a little dinner in Chelsea, right around the corner from the Cragston Hotel.

Mac

Who did he pick up from?

Jo

Jimmy Fillbrook. And guess what the dinner has in a little dish next to the cash register.

Lindsay

Violet gum.

Jo

Bingo. But there was something else that kept bugging me. Because Greg Barbera was a bike messenger, right? So why did he run from Scott Perfitto? Where on earth was his bike? So I went back and looked at the NYPD footage one more time. Look what I spotted at about 100 yards ahead of both of them.

Danny

Guy on a bike.

Jo

Yes, but not just any bike. It matches the exact description supplied to us by the courier service that Greg worked for. And look whats hanging from the handle bars.

A chain saw. Could've been used to cut down the fallen tree outside of Scott Perfitto's apartment, right?

Mac

Greg probably locked up his bike.

Lindsay

Greg's bike was stolen so he had to run from Perfitto on foot.

Hawkes

Which caused him to fall down the steps.

Jo

and due to Greg's untimely death he wasn't able to deliver this.

Mac

Doug Kramer. That's the name of the building and safety official who was supposed to accept the bribe from Jimmy Fillbrook.

Jo

For fifteen grand.

But since he didn't get it, he ruled to condemn the Cragston Hotel at the B&S meeting.

Jo

Yes, which we all know drove our supper, Toby Delafont, to our murderous rage.

Danny

He attacked Fillbrook in the park, leaving him for dead.

Lindsay

Right. And then Fillbrook wondered further into the woods, right into the path of Nicholas Bristow's arrow.

That's the craziest thing I've ever heard but it actually makes sense.

Mac

One crime leads to another.

Hawkes

And another.

Danny

And another.

Lindsay

And another.

Jo

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is known as the Ripple Effect.

(exhales) Oh, son of a bitch. (to suspect) You run track or something? You on the Olympic team?

(out of breath) This is fun...this is funny to you? You realize you were in an automobile, right? You were not running 60 miles an hour.

Mac

Yeah, you want to ride back to the precinct or you walking?

(panting) Ride please.

Mac

Get in. Come on.

(sighs) They're so fast.

Mac

Come on, old man.

Danny

Hey, get your head in the game, kid. You're better than that.

Adam

Are you kidding me? Who just got nailed in the corner over there, all right? Get the puck along the boards!

Danny

Just keep your skates up against the post. You learn that in peewee league.

Hey, hey, hey, shut up, the two of you. We are not losing this game. We got two minutes left. Danny, I need you strong on the forecheck. Adam, nothing gets past you. Focus, baby. Focus. Let's go, boys.

Hey, Flack, that last goal was for your mother. This next one's for your sister.

My sister died six months ago, jackass.

No. Bro, I didn't know.

She's not dead, you idiot. Mention my family again, I'll punch you in the mouth.

This. It's the ignition point.

Yeah, great, genius. That was a tough one. Can I lock his ass up now, please?

Did you find anything here? Either inside or next to the hole in the floor?

Mac

One of my investigators found some kind of melted metal.

About the size of a dime?

What was it, Leonard?

Have I not earned your respect enough to not treat me like one of your project thugs?

You don't have even one ounce of my respect.

Which is precisely why I'm not gonna tell you what it was. You'll use it against me.

I employed the technique... once, and that's all I'm gonna give you on that.

That's it? We brought you out here for that?

Yeah. This was very helpful. Perhaps not to you, but it was to me.

Mac

This valve is normally locked in the on position. Someone broke the lock and turned the system off. Then, after the fire started and before FDNY got here, someone turned it back on.

What, you think Leonard suddenly grew a conscience?

Mac

Maybe he had one all along.

What's his endgame here, Mac?

Mac

Whatever it is, Leonard Brooks had 15 long years to plan it.
