CCaptain Cragen

Didn't 2 of Spicer's married johns take a bust?

Yeah, about 6 months ago. Vice was targeting the piers.

CCaptain Cragen

I'm sure their wives must have been thrilled.

[Munch chuckles behind Cragen. Cragen turns to look at him.]

CCaptain Cragen

What are you doing?

Eavesdropping.

CCaptain Cragen

Good, you're up to speed. What do you say you go interrogate a husband?

CCaptain Cragen

I read the autopsy report. Now do you really believe that those 2 ladies were walking around with 5 and 7-inch knives in their purses every day?

I think we did the one thing that's going to allow me to sleep tonight.

CCaptain Cragen

You just used your "Get out of Jail Free" card on this case, Olivia. There's only one in the pack.

[The squad is looking at pictures of the victim.]

8 stories up, 8 down.

Looks like she was shot out of a cannon.

CCaptain Cragen

Guy on steroids?

No, the Yankees are on a road trip.

Yeah, they're down in Baltimore, kicking a little Oriole ass.

[reads] "There's a tiny catfish feared more than the piranha. It's called a-"

CCaptain Cragen

Candiru.

Say what?

CCaptain Cragen

This is beautiful. Tell him.

"It will swim right into a man's penis and lodge itself there by erecting sharp spines-" Ow.

[adjusts his seat] "Erecting sharp spines." There's a fish with a sense of irony.

Jerkwad, have some respect for the victim.

Hey, I respect hookers. At least they earn their money up front, unlike ex-wives, who get you with that lucrative back-end deal.

Oh, so you're saying all women are whores?

Don't be ridiculous. I don't know all the women in the world.

CCaptain Cragen

Children!

CCaptain Cragen

When you were at the 3-1, did you know a cop named Sal D'Angelo?

The 70s are a blur.

CCaptain Cragen

Tell me about it. Closest I ever came to time travel.

I need physical evidence on the murder.

CCaptain Cragen

We'll need to recanvass the crime scene.

Do that. Meanwhile, search his home and office.

CCaptain Cragen

I think I'm falling in love with you, Abby.

When I was a little kid, my parents told me never to eat sweets.

CCaptain Cragen

So as an adult you overcompensate?

Yeah.

I'm guessing your parents also said you should never get married.

The powers that be always protect themselves and the FBI are their hired guns-

[finishes for him] -fronting for the Trilateral Council, the World Bank, and the Mansons.

CCaptain Cragen

Masons.

[Munch walks into the squad room and finds his colleagues filling out forms.]

CCaptain Cragen

Police union found us better health insurance.

This form is longer than the last book I read.

Don't you see what they're doing?

Yeah, they're looking out for you, Munch. Psychiatric coverage increased to 80%.
