Must be frustrating, to try to conduct an investigation within a group that's entirely invested in irrationality.
Oh, well. Homicides are often irrational as well.

[Goren and Eames search through the Reverend's bookshelves and drawers.]
[pulling books off the shelf] G.K. Chesterton. C.S. Lewis....
...and Ripped Boys magazine. Which one of these things is not like the others?
[Logan and Wheeler are about to arrest Lemle's source]
LLemle
This is so unethical.
Unethical? Josh, the guy killed a busboy after paying him 2 grand to spike your sour cream.
We've been ordered off.
By who? The Feds, or Israel? On this one, are you a Jew first and a cop second? Is that the story?
[angry but controlled] We're done here, Logan. There are good guys and there are bad guys here. We're dealing with car bombs, terrorists. Hamas, PLO - they blow people up, in shopping malls, cafes, buses.
Come on! You really think Sarah Mier is the first innocent the Israelis have killed?
[placating] Captain. Logan.
Thank you for your help, detectives. We're off this case.
WWilcox
I don't like where this is going.
GGrady
What, that scared you, bro? Oh come on, homeboy. I thought you were the real deal. I'm starting to think you're about as street as Jessica Simpson.
WWilcox
Oh yeah, what does that make you?
GGrady
I'm true to the game, bro.
WWilcox
Easy to say if your dad used to work for the Justice Department.
GGrady
Be easy Jack. I got ya back.
WWilcox
[sarcastically] Yeah.
Do yourself a favor, Seamus, don't tell Twitch we're looking for him.
SSeamus
You have my word.
Somehow that doesn't comfort me.
SLStrauss' Lawyer
My client is not a killer, but he does suffer from painkiller addiction, which has only gotten worse due to the stress of the trial. He is going into rehab.
So is everyone else.
LLarry
[through an interpreter] Get me a deaf cop.
A deaf cop?
LLarry
Get me a jury of my peers. Get me a deaf judge. Then I'll participate. Until then, there is no justice for me.
[Ross and the detectives are watching a tape of Nelson and Delgado in space]
DDelgado
This is why I never wear makeup in space, not even an earring.
NNelson
I think she looks just fine, don't you, Houston?
Let me guess, this is where her heart rate went up.
At the very least, she's a hyper-competitive Type A personality under enormous pressure.
So am I. So are you.
EEdie
As long as there are wives and mothers on that jury, I'll be okay. They'll understand I was just trying to protect what's mine.

[about the Holland sisters' lawsuit] Lorelai wins, she gets 90%. 900 million. The sisters will just have to get by on 100 million.
Life is tough.
James Edward Holland fathered a baby 10 years after his death.
The rich really are different.
As serial killers go, this Mark Ford Brady is definitely within the hashmarks.
Right down to having three names.
[about Brady] He's toying with you. Now, you're personally invested. He's got you exactly where he can control you.
No, he's not in control of me. I can handle him.
No. You don't need this in your life right now.
You don't know what I need. And don't tell me who I am. You don't know who I am. And don't tell me how I think.
[pause]
Then I'll just tell you this: You're off this case.
