Sam Baker quotes from CSI: NY

Stella

(as he looks on at the interigations) Sam, you were next.

Sam Baker

What?

Stella

Your life was insured for over $5 million dollars. In order to become a legitimate beneficiary, Debbie called herself your fiance in all of the paperwork.

Sam Baker

I can't believe this is happening. I was living on the streets. She helped me get a place.

Stella

This was all part of the plan. Debbie and Grace waited two years, enough time for the policies to mature and pay out at maximum benefits, no matter what the manner of death. Most likely, Sam, in a week, you'd have been dead.

Stella

When I was a little girl, there was a sign hanging above the desk where I did my homework. And it said that "Temptation will lean on the doorbell, but opportunity may knock only once."

Sam Baker

As ironic as it might seem, Debbie provided me with a second chance, and I plan to make the most of it.

Stella

Good.

Stella

I've been guilty of it myself. Put a couple of coins or a dollar in a cup and move on. Never looking at them in the eyes, never thinking you can do more to help.

Sam Baker

Those couple of coins in the cup, that's more than most.
