Adam Ross quotes from CSI: NY

Mac

(To himself) Now, this, I missed (Raises voice and calls out) Adam!

Adam

Hey, boss! Welcome back.

Jo

Adam, how many college roommates did you have?

Adam

Uh, whew... okay. Let's see, first, there was Todd, but that ended with the whole atomic cat eye incident.

Jo

Atomic cat eye incident?

Adam

Yeah, you know, when like, someone drinks too much, and they pass out, and you, like, sneak up and...

Jo

I don't really want to know. Just ballpark it for me.

Adam

Uh... 12, I guess.

Jo

12 roommates?! Any of them ever get arrested?

Adam

Todd, and it was for public indecency (Chuckles).

Jo

Tyler's moving in with a new roommate.

Adam

Oh, man! You broke the Mom code and looked him up?

Jo

Well, I didn't get any specifics. The juvie record's sealed.

Adam

(Reading from Jo's computer screen) Trespassing and criminal mischief. Hmm. Looks like you guys got something in common (Smiles teasingly).

Jo

Snakeskin? No indication our vic or his roommate had snakes for pets.

Adam

Well, somewhere along the line, our vic had a run-in with a boa constrictor.

Adam

The whole Tyler roommate thing... it's gonna be fine. You know, usually people with priors never commit crimes within a five mile radius of where they live.

Jo

Oh, get out of here!

Mac

The apartment search turn up anything?

Adam

Yep... auto greaser, ink jet printer, scanner, glass cleaner, hair dryer... everything you need for printing counterfeit money.

Mac

Well, the problem is, everything you just listed is also a regular household item, easily explained away.

Adam

Everything but the scanned image of the $20 bill.

Adam

You ever dance with the green fairy?

Lindsay

I can't help you, Adam.

Adam

I'm talking about absinthe. It's the 19th century version of magic mushrooms.

Lindsay

Adam, what do you get when you have a sergeant involved in a shooting, his wife who works in the crime lab and an IAB investigation? Conflict of interest.

Adam

Oh, oh. I'm... Oh, I'm sorry. I... Is he okay?

Lindsay

Oh, yeah, he's fine. He's got a couple stitches in his head. He's gonna give a statement to Internal Affairs.

Adam

All right, well, you tell him that we're all thinking about him.

Lindsay

I will. Thanks, Adam. Tell EDNA I said hello.

Hawkes

GSR field test came back positive.

Adam

Means the victim had a gun.

Hawkes

Maybe. Officer Cooper told Danny that she checked the victim's vitals after shooting him.

Adam

Maybe the GSR transferred from her hands to his.

Lindsay

Who called it in?

Adam

Couple from Iowa, in town to see Spider-Man on Broadway, after a walk in the park. Odds were pretty good they were going to see a dead body either way.

Adam

It's probably not premeditated, right? I mean, it'd be strange if someone planned to kill her with a rock.

You never know. Perp might have been following her. Could have snuck up behind her and, bang, lights out.

Lindsay

The result of a heated argument.

Adam

Unsatisfied customer (Lindsay gives him a look) What? She's a call girl.

Lindsay

Don't make me sorry I brought you out here.

Mac

(Checking out a postcard) It's blank.

Adam

Well, that's why I swabbed the stamp adhesive for DNA.

Adam

Are the other lab techs still being questioned? It just seems, you know, we've decided guilt by job description, and Harlan seems like our primary suspect.

Mac

You think he did it, Adam?

Adam

Uh, no.

Mac

Do you know who did?

Adam

No.

Mac

We have a responsibility to Jessica Drake. Someone in this lab thinks they have the advantage. If it's Harlan, we'll prove it; if it's not... then we continue to do our job. There's an unspoken rule of trust within these walls. That gets broken... it's inexcusable.

Jo

This is personal for Mac, Adam. He's not gonna treat anyone with kid gloves.

Adam

Well, it's personal for me, too. More than anybody in this room, I spend the most time with the lab techs. I-I started where they did. They don't want to be treated with kid gloves. They just want to be treated with respect. Look, Jessica, um... she's not just another girl in a white lab coat. Okay? She was a friend.

Adam

We could build a profile, you know... a woman, size seven shoe, six one.

Danny

We're off to a really bad start there, buddy. Not one of our suspects fits that profile. None are that tall.

(Looking at each other) High heels.
