Lennie, it's over. What if it was one of your kids?
I don't know, but there's no statute of limitations on murder. Sweet dreams, pal.

Lennie, it's over. What if it was one of your kids?
I don't know, but there's no statute of limitations on murder. Sweet dreams, pal.
If Manning swears the theory is useless, you've gotta prove that it isn't. Now, what the hell's the theory?
That protons eventually fall apart.
Is this something I need to be worried about?
It means that all matter in the universe will eventually disintegrate in a certain way.
Terrific. Now all we gotta do to win a larceny trial is prove how the universe ends.
He's not your typical killer.
He is. He killed somebody.
What kind of life is this guy gonna have without ... you know?
Maybe he's got some other life-long pursuits.
Like what? You think he plays the clarinet?
I hope he plays the clarinet.
You know, one of these days I'm gonna pack up a Winnebago.
And go where?
Upstate. New Hampshire.
I spent a year there one weekend.
[about Benny] You think his son knew he was an ass man?
I don't care how close they were. I don't see him bragging to his kid about his latest conquest.
But the guys down at the office are a different story.
[glances at Logan] Tell me about it.
[pause] What?
Benny Williams was never Pat's father. He just happened to be in the room when Pat was conceived.
After twenty years in this office, you'd think you'd have a sense of reality.
Reality? The reality is that no one is willing to draw a line in the sand. Nobody is willing to say that the law is the law. And if you break it, you will be prosecuted: win, lose or draw.
Just once, I'd like to hear someone in this country stand up and say "I did it. I'm the one responsible for my actions, not my television set, and not the color of my skin." And if it makes you feel good to call me a racist, fine. But if you want to know who's really responsible for racism in today's society, take a good look in the mirror.
[Logan and Briscoe are reading a young kidnapping victim's notebook of poetry for clues about who may have taken her]
[reads from notebook] "Flying away on a giant beast with my suitcase in its teeth."
That doesn't sound like Fenady to me.
Wait a minute. "On leather wings, I fly beyond, on top my friend the pteradon." The flying beast is a dinosaur.
So a brontosaurus did it.
Arnette Fenady applied for custody of Wendy Sylvester.
She must be crazier than we thought.
No way a court grants her application.
No way she was supposed to be acquitted, either.
What kind of mother could she possibly be?
For Wendy's sake, I hope a good one.
[about Korey's stalker] He's invested considerably more than gas money into this. Every game, every press clipping... it's a full-time occupation.
What's in it for him? Korey barely knows he exists.
The way he sees it, when she changes her running shoes, it's her way of saying hello to him. When she waves to the crowd, it's a declaration of love.
And if the secret code gets jumbled, is there any chance he gets violent?
There's a low risk, I'd say about 5%.
"If you don't play for me, I hope you don't play for anyone else"? I'd be watching my back.
Well, you take it as threat. He probably meant it as a curse.
Right, and he whacked her with his magic wand.
What do you say we cut right to the chase? My client's recanting his statement.
What's your explanation for that? He lied on his statement because he was abused as a child?
Shoots a man, pushes him under a truck? I've heard of overkill, but this is ridiculous. Can we get a plea here?
Not guilty.
Bail application?
My client has strong ties to the community.
And another community 12,000 miles away.
Your Honor, my client is a citizen.
"Give us your tired, your poor, your vicious." Miss Kincaid?
Due to the risk of flight, Your Honor...
Thank you. That's all I need to hear. I'll give this citizen his rights. He's remanded without bail.
I never thought I'd get a letter of resignation from you. Thought you'd be here long after I was gone.
It's not entirely about you.
That's kind of you, thank you. Steven Green is filing an appeal.
Based on what?
Coercion of a witness. Anne Madsen.
Considering the witness is dead, the appeals court should be amused. I brought Claire up to speed on my open cases.
She'll be fine. And you?
I'm clear as a bell.
