Bernard quotes from Law & Order

I can't believe what I just heard. What is this, 1954? Kickin' a kid out because you think he "chose" to be gay?

Crazy, but it's still a thing in my community, especially among the religious folks.

I don't get it.

Don't get what?

People - Black people. Here you are, marching in the streets for police reform, all these progressive laws, but if your kid turns out to be gay? Well, he needs counseling. You need to make him "right with God". You ask me, that's what you need to be marching about.

OK, you're right, but don't act like your people are much better. You still can't have premarital sex, for God's sake.

Reason number 36 why I don't go to church anymore.

It's time we had a chat with Mr. Pratt.

Oh, I love it when you rhyme.

You don't have to like the people you work with.

Is he sending us a message, Kate?

Probably. But luckily, I don't care.

You keep surprising me, Frank.

I don't sell shoes for a living.

You can't prove what actually happened. You can only guess. That's the issue. We don't know what happened. And in this political climate, there's no way a jury is going to convict a woman for murder one based on these facts.

You mean there's no way they're ever going to convict a Black woman for shooting a white cop. That's what you're really saying, isn't it? Because if Kendra Daniels was white...

But she's not. She's Black. There's a certain reality to that fact that if you don't understand that, or you can't appreciate that, that's on you. I'm doing the best I can with the facts and the evidence I have. I'm sorry you don't approve, but don't you dare question my integrity.

Or what?

Hey! That's enough. The man's just doing his job.

His job is to prosecute Kendra Daniels to the fullest extent of the law, not make excuses for her just because she's Black.

That woman shot and killed Jimmy Doyle, Kev. And she knew he was a police officer. That's it. That's all that matters.

That's what you believe, Frank? Hmm? You believe it's that simple? A Black woman and a white cop? Hmm? [Cosgrove walks off]

Hey, Price.

Yeah.

Frank is a good man. Says what he feels, and right now he's feeling a lot of pain. And for the record... I respect what you're doing. Takes a lot of guts to stare down NYPD on a case like this.
