TV show quotes
Whatever this is, let's be careful not to say Muslim men like to burn their wives.
No. If they want to burn people, they fly an airplane full of gasoline into an office building.
Excuse me, but they were extremists.
Sorry. But my next door neighbor's Iranian. At airports, even he's scared when he sees Middle Eastern passports. I mean, let's get real. People know it's wrong, but they think it anyway.
Casey.
Who talked to a reporter about this burned woman?
And it's nice to see you, too.
(during Martin Bosa's interview, Fin shows up with Kema Mabuda)
You've come to beat me again. I am not afraid of you.
You should be afraid of her.
What can a woman do? Claw my eyes out?
Deport you. Your passport's been revoked.
Meet Nigerian Under Consul Kema Mabuda.
I have a few friends home in Nigeria. Perhaps it is time I paid 'em a visit.
Have them visit you, at Kirikiri Prison, while you await your execution.
They use a firing squad there, right?
Yeah. And the warden thinks that's too easy, so he ties you to a pole in boilin' sun, then he has his firing squad start on your ankles and work their way up real slow.
How soon can we get him on a plane?
[scared] If I tell you what you want to know...?
[nods] I'll ask for leniency.
There's a truck arriving tonight.
You have 2 choices: cooperate, and spend the rest of your life in prison; or don't, and die by lethal injection.
Am I supposed to be intimidated? New York State hasn't executed anyone in 40 years.
You're right. But, given your crime, a jury will be willing to break tradition. So, go ahead, gamble. It's your life.
What's your name?
Screw you!
Screw You, you're under arrest for attempted rape until we nail you for the other 11.
Prove it.
[to a witness] Does he look familiar to you?
[looks at the suspect] That's him. That's the bastard who tried to rape me!
See, Screw You? Wasn't that easy?
Aidan, your father was also Shannon's father.
Shannon's not my sister.
Our DNA tests prove she is.
How can you know this?
Because Shannon was pregnant, and we tested the fetus's genes.
The fetus? Oh, God.
Aidan, listen to me. This is not your fault. None of this is your fault.
No. No. She was my sister?! [sobs] I had sex with my sister?! [retches]
Bringing up Adam with paranoid fears isn't against the law. I mean, you can raise your kid to be a racist so long as it doesn't cause harm.
Well, there's your difference, right there. This is like vehicular homicide: Adam is the car, Marilyn's behind that wheel. Her paranoia drove his actions.
[to the jury] You're trying to take my children away from me. I know how you people are: Police, district attorneys, DYFS, you destroy families! Be careful. If you don't live your lives by their rules, they'll come after your kids, too.
[of the defendants] They're monsters. They're mean, vicious little girls who think that they can do whatever they want, and up until now they've gotten away with it. But not anymore.
I love these little cliques. They're like the Mafia. Nobody knows nothing.
What about that autistic kid in Milwaukee last year? Parishioners held him down. They were laying on top of him to cure him.
That could explain the ring mark. (she walks around behind Cragen and wraps her arms around him to demonstrate) Someone holds Jamie, he struggles, they hold him tighter.
[breathless) Until he can't breathe. Thank you, I enjoyed that.
I saved thousands of children and I'll only be remembered for losing one.
Dodge ball?! Haven't they outlawed this barbaric practice yet?
I loved this game.
Yeah, well, you were a sadist. You know, I literally weighed 98 pounds. I can still hear them, "Break the pencil!" I was a walking bruise.
Let's talk about the Tripley scam.
Well, that was April's lie. And I believed it.
We have the scrapbook.
[Nora looks on at Conrad, then turns to the ADA]
Well, it's not as though he's an innocent victim, is it? He's a pedophile. He deserved it!
I'd just as soon clear this one off the books, so fill in the blanks and I won't charge you with the fraud counts related to it.
[Conrad whispers into her client's ear, then turns to Novak]
It sounds like you know everything already.
Crime lab found a hair in April's underwear.
During the party, I snuck into his room, and I took it from his hairbrush. When they asked me for the clothes she'd been wearing, I'd already planted it.
Do you have any idea how much damage you've caused?
But you agree with me! He deserved it!
He deserves to go to jail! Thanks to you, he can claim he's the victim of a false allegation every time a legitimate one comes up in the future!
Sorry.
I don't believe you. But you'll have a good long time to pay for it in prison.
We just made a deal.
I'm not charging her with fraud on Tripley. I'm charging her with fraud on the cancer scam.
Münchausen.
Bull! She's been working this for a year. Totaling all the bake sales, canister donations, and Internet solicitations, she's bilked people out of 60 grand!
What are you offering?
Not a thing. I'm taking you to trial.
Please! Please! Think of April! There is no one else to look after her!
You've gotta be kidding me! What you were doing nearly killed her! I'm charging you with fraud and attempted murder.
But you heard what she said! I'm sick!
No jury's that stupid. They'll see it wasn't Münchausen. Just pure unadulterated greed.
[of closeted black men] It's different for black men. They go out, have sex with other men, then come home, have sex with their woman, and pretend they're straight. [pause] Don't look at me, I just know stuff.
