“Hostage” quotes from CSI: NY

[sarcastically] Have I told you how much I love the media?

I don't believe it. You've got a man on the inside.

Stella Bonasera

Mac Taylor. It was one of the gunman's demands. Mac went in through the back door so the press wouldn't see, and in exchange he was able to negotiate the release of one of the hostages.

And you're worried about him.

Stella

I'm worried sick. Look, Brett, I need your help. No one knows weapons like you do.

So you've got a victim with one entry wound but with two bullet wounds inside of him.

Stella

Yeah. Basically I'm looking for the impossible.

A murder weapon that kind fire two rounds near instantaneously without any recoil.

Stella

Don't tease me.

Follow me. (leads her into an arms room and hands her a weapon)

Stella

(fires two shots)

It's called the Kriss Super V, .45 caliber. Every time you fire, the recoil energy produced is vectored downward into a spring-loaded receiver instead of backward into the shooter's body.

Stella

Takes the kick right out of kickback.

Hmm. End result? Highly accurate shot each time this bad boy's fired.

Stella

So how did our gunman get his hands on this kind of cutting-edge technology?

Stella

(outside the bank, about Gunman Joe) This guy's not a shooter. There's something else going on. We need more time.

Time is not what you give to a hostagetaker, Detective.

Stella

Thirty minutes. Thirty minutes and then it's your show.

All right, thirty, starting now. After that, I'm taking the first steps towards ending this thing.

Mac

This could have been an accident.

No, it wasn't an accident. I'm not gonna let you pin this murder on me.

Mac

Calm down, Joe. No one's doing that.

You don't think I know what's going on out there? Your friends are out there trying to figure out a way to get in here without killing a lot of innocent people. They don't give a damn about me. 'Cause they think I'm a murderer. And you know what that means? That means they'll put a bullet in me the first chance they get. That's why I'm not leaving here until you prove that I didn't pull that trigger. And if I'm not leaving, nobody's leaving.

Stella

(outside the bank) Where's Mac?

With the body.

Stella

Oh, you gotta be kidding.

This ain't your everyday bank robbery, Stell. This guy made three demands. Unmarked police car, no press and somebody from Crime Scene.

Stella

He wanted one of us?

He swears he didn't kill the guy inside and he wants someone in there to prove he's not a murderer.

Stella

So Mac agreed to meet one of his demands?

In exchange for a hostage.

Stella

(about Gunman/Joe) Oh, this guy is smart. Now he's got a cop for insurance.

I'm three months pregnant. I don't want to die.
