Sheldon Hawkes quotes from CSI: NY

Hawkes

I never heard of a Russian hit man doing a drive-by on a bicycle. I'm betting the poisoning and the shooting are related.

Hawkes

No prints of value inside the glove. But all hope is not lost as you always have to use a gloveless hand to put on the first glove.

Hawkes

Unless Lombardo had some sort of magical cloaking device, how did he end up in the crime scene, get shot, without anybody seeing him?

Detective Mac Taylor

You should hear Aiden talk about this hip-hop world. Close your eyes, she sounds like Queen Latifah.

Dr. Sheldon Hawkes

What do you know about Queen Latifah?

Hawkes

At first, I thought this might have been a postmortem dog bite.

Mac

Those are no canine's canines.

We're Jewish.

Dr. Sheldon Hawkes

Orthodox?

Traditional. That's... that's how Hannah would describe us. You do it because you believe it, not because you fear it. That's what she always said.

Danny

How's it going with the gypsy cab driver? Did you bring him back to life so he can just tells us who killed him?

Hawkes

I haven't attended that seminar yet.

Sheldon

You know what my favorite games was when I was a kid?

Mac

Jacks?

Sheldon

Operation.

Mac

His nose didn't buzz red. Well done!

Stella Bonasera

Any idea what they used to hit her?

Dr. Sheldon Hawkes

There's granular particulate matter in her wound. At first I thought it was dirt, but then I took it under the autopsy scope: feldspar, quartz, and a pinch of mica.

Stella

Granite.

Hawkes

Yeah.

Bonasera

So, the murder weapon was a rock.

Hawkes

And judging from the head wound, I would be looking for a rock with a V-shaped edge.

Bonasera

[sarcastically] Oh, well that's good to know. Narrows down my search.

Mac Taylor

[To Hawkes] You are the man of many talents.

Hawkes

You know, there was this time I wanted to be a sculptor. [Mac looks suprised]

Dr. Sheldon Hawkes

[hands Stella a spleen from a victim] Oh, I've got something else.

Detective Stella Bonasera

Don't make me hold something again!

Stella

Dispatch, I have the feeling it's going to be a very busy day. Want to switch jobs?

Hawkes

Oh, yeah, sure. You'll be cutting off that guy's right arm and left leg.

Stella

I'm leaving now. Thank you.

Sheldon Hawkes

[regarding the victim's brain] It's about 98 degrees out here, the pavement is very hot, any remaining pieces are more than likely fried.

Stella Bonasera

I knew this would be a no-brainer for you.

Hawkes

She didn't just say that.

She did.

Dr. Sheldon Hawkes

You just told the man his partner was murdered, and he didn't even ask what happened.

Detective Mac Taylor

Overwhelmed by the news, I guess. Or, maybe he already knows

Mac

You on break?

Sheldon Hawkes

I'm just taking five minutes to eat. That's okay, isn't it?

Mac

Eating is frowned upon, Hawkes. [Hawkes moves to put everything away] Hey, I'm kidding. Relax.
