S14 E23Caviar Emptor

The covenant the father broke was with both of them.

Even after everything he did to her, she forgave him. Asher didn't.

He felt more betrayed than she did.

He may have married into the family, but he'll never be blood.

S14 E24C.O.D.

We're gettin' BlackBerries next year.

Yeah. Next year.

What is up with you?

[sighs] I'm puttin' in my papers, Ed.

What?

It's time.

Really? What are you gonna do?

I don't know. Play golf, shoot pool, lay around in the sun. If I get bored, maybe I'll try the DA's office. Pick up an investigation here and there.

Aw. Damn, Lennie!

[a parcel deliveryman has been murdered moments after completing a delivery]

When you absolutely, positively have to kill somebody overnight.

S15 E1Paradigm

We could've just ducked the whole issue instead of trying to set policy.

And I can't believe I have pusillanimous pussyfooters on my own staff.

I don't think Spiro Agnew is the person to be quoting here, Arthur.

If the shoe fits.

Lindsay Starr didn't deserve to die. She was no longer a soldier. She worked in a supermarket. She was lured into a deserted office and ambushed. And while Nadira Harrington's misfortunes might explain her actions, they can't excuse cold-blooded retribution for the abuse of her brother. If Corporal Starr's conduct at Abu Ghraib exceeded military or international standards, we have, in our civil society, procedures to redress those wrongs, if wrongs they be. Yes, the processes are slow, messy, uneven. But Nadira Harrington had choices. To vote, to sue, to advocate for justice. Instead, she opted for blood feud, and the end product of blood feud is chaos. Our history books are rife with examples of religious zealots of all stripes. Christians, Muslims, Jews twisting their faith's fundamental morality to accommodate a personal or political agenda. Neither rationale justifies killing. The highest moral law in our culture is, "Thou shalt not kill." And where we live, killing in the name of God, country, or brother is still called murder.

S15 E2The Dead Wives Club

When you were a kid, did you ever call your old man by his first name?

Not unless I wanted to smell the Aqua Velva on the back of his hand.

S15 E3The Brotherhood

[a paroled ex-con has been murdered]

I love a public service homicide, don't you?

MMarsden

The only thing sweeter than a dead CO is one on my side of the bars. It's the gift that just keeps on givin'.

S15 E4Coming Down Hard

I was doing catch-up on discovery.

Discovery? You're halfway through trial.

The defense disclosed dozens of boxes of paperwork. They're trying to drown us.

They have nine paralegals, and we just have me. But I don't think they meant to disclose this. [hands McCoy a piece of paper]

[reading it] Miss Southerlyn, you've outdone yourself.

Do I get to see it? [McCoy hands him the paper, he reads it] Well, let's see if Dr. Cedars can wiggle his way out of this one.

S15 E5Gunplay
