Law & Order · Season 1
[Logan Greevey are interrogating Diz Williams, a suspect in the murder]
My boy is 13, you can't do nothing like this! You gotta go to juvey, you gotta-
We can do plenty when it comes to felony homicide, Mr Williams! So if you don't wanna blow parole, just shut up!
We need motive.
Who says the little son of a bitch needs motive?
Max...
[loudly and with anger. At each 'Bam' he mimes gunshot] What the hell's his motive for this anyway?! "He took my seat." BAM. "He looked at my girlfriend." BAM! "I need dem shoes." BAM!
Max has been busting his chops on this case.
I understand...
Hey, I can apologize for myself, alright? Only I don't feel very apologetic! I'm fed up!
You haven't mentioned any incentives for cooperation.
No? Well...how is this: if your client doesn't start talking now, I'll tear his life apart.
The Commandment says: 'Thou shalt not kill.' It does not say 'Thou shalt not kill nice people.'
I'm going for temporary insanity.
Yours or your client's?
Aren't you always giving me the "You can't win every case" speech?
I don't mind losing, Paul.
You could have fooled me.
What bothers me is 12 law-abiding citizens knowing a defendant is guilty and acquitting him anyway.
They were flim-flammed by the angle of self-defense.
They knew they were being flim-flammed, and they still acquitted. That is frightening.
[on the witness stand] Some of my money in bank, yeah.
Some? Now, the bank records show that there was, last month, $6,011,301.26.
If you say so.
And the month before that, $9,615.
Sounds right.
A six million dollar difference, uh…good month at the discount store, sir?
A prosecution based on debt re-financing. That's going to get you real far with the jury.
I'll lay it out for them. I'll draw them a Monopoly board.
Yeah, I'd like to see them get from 'Park Place' to 'Go.'
If you had given me a shotgun while my mother was shoving me against a wall, I'd have blown her head off. But my dad? Not even if he caught me killing the old lady.
:[They look through a Lebanese restaurant's garbage ] How could somebody eat something that could even get to smell that bad?!
What's the matter with you guys in the D.A.'s office? Got no peripheral vision? Can't you see the big picture?
We're just not blinded by it.
Its a whole new concept: crime without punishment
I'm no terrorist. I'm a soldier
What he means is, he is a man of conscience.
What he means is, he is the misguided, romantic dupe of those who consider him completely expendable.
You know, it's weird. Two of our grandparents come from the same town. We've both got uncles that's priests.
And you're both Libras. That's destiny for you.
[reading faxes written in Arabic] Looks like a breakdancing chicken wrote this.
