I can't imagine what he went through, waiting for her to die.

The evil stepmother had the kids whacked. By who? The big bad wolf?
[When Goren and Eames try to get Carver to get a juvenile file unsealed based on the fact they found peas lined up in a row next to the body and one of the nannies lines corn kernels up in a row.]:
All you have is peas and corn kernels. You're a few lima beans short of succotash, Detectives.
Uh, Succotash?
Your evidence is anecdotal. I line up my shoes at night.
Why am I not surprised?
Who's the worst pro bono lawyer you know?
The worst? That's easy. Stan Shatenstein.
Um, You know, hypothetically, how would we get Stan Shatenstein assigned to two defendants. What would we do?
What would you do? Hypothetically?

MMorgan
Yes!
You killed your dad and transformed your life.
MMorgan
[nods, smiling] Yes, I did.
And you killed your brother for the same reason.
The brother who had loved you, who watched over you.
MMorgan
It's wasn't real love. The context wasn't authentic. He watched out for me out of guilt. It's old stuff.
It's in the past. You killed your dad and you... let it go.
MMorgan
Yes!
Well, so then you became everything that Grace Note promised you. I mean, like it says here in the brochure, look! You became creator of your own destiny! Wow, look at you! You're a success story!
I almost forgot, I once busted a stripper who did a thing with a glow stick, do they do that there?
PPens
Yeah, they do that.
[to Goren] I can't believe you touched that thing.
