Natalie Dalton quotes from CSI: NY

Natalie Dalton

I suppose you read the reports... the... the ones that the police made that night. I was a different person back then.

Mac Taylor

Ms. Dalton, I'm not here to judge you. Based on what I've read here, you're a mother who's never given up hope, and I admire that.

Mac Taylor

How did Olivia end up in that bodega alone?

Natalie Dalton

I was more interested in getting loaded than taking care of my baby girl.

Mac Taylor

The bodega was just around the corner. She [Olivia] went to get you some aspirin.

Natalie Dalton

And when I woke up a couple hours later, she was gone. I went through the entire building, knocked on every door, went through the streets screaming her name. I haven't had a drink since that night. That's what it took to open my eyes. But it was too late.

Mac Taylor

It's never too late.

Natalie Dalton

You've been looking for these men for nine years. What makes you think you're going to find them now?

Mac Taylor

Olivia.

Natalie Dalton

Thank you. Both of you for all that you've done. (Jo motions for Natalie to go join Olivia) Is... is that her? (She peers inside the office) She's beautiful. Can I go...?

Mac Taylor

Of course you can. You're her mother.
