We have agents at your house right now with a search warrant.

Inadmissible.
Yes. I'd hate to be a State's Attorney. Jane's always pulling crap like this on them but they always win.

Let's keep it casual to start with Sophie. Let her relax. If she gets her guard up, we'll get nothing from her.
You're very combative all of a sudden.
Yeah, if she is guilty, she lied to me and I believed it. She fooled me.
The ultimate sin.
Yes it is.
The widow's not a true blonde. She's naturally dark.
And what?
And her hair's colored and styled to look like Sophie, only younger. She was a brunette when I knew her.
So Nelson was a control freak like you said.
A control freak with a serious thing for getting his women to dye their hair blonde.
Kerry Sheenan has roots.
Yes, she does.
Sheenan and Alex Nelson were having an affair.
Bravo!
How did you kill Nelson?
HHowie
Poison.
What kind of poison did you use?
HHowie
Wouldn't you like to know.
I do know, I'm wondering if you do.
HHowie
Do you realize that the real rulers of this planet are insects?
[talking about Howie] He's crazy.
Yeah, crazy don't make him innocent. Crazy is what makes people kill other people.

You are skeptical. Nevertheless, it's true we are plumbing the depths of the human soul. Do you know what's down there? Do you know what your soul is made of?
Frogs and snails and puppy dogs' tails?
SStutzer
Ah. Humor. Good.
Hey, thanks for not telling I made you take the case. Lisbon? Hello?
Tell me the truth.
Truth. Darth Vader? Luke's father.
That's funny. "Don't listen to control freaks." "Whatever you say, sir."

Please do not dig the hole that you are standing in any deeper than you have already dug it.
No, sir.
That hole is the grave of your very promising career.
You should put a flashlight underneath your chin just to complete the effect.
I'm not kidding.
I know.
Eighteen years of secret anger. How did you stand it?
MRMuriel Renfrew
Nobody's life is perfect.
I'm giving you all formal notice. Any further infractions will result in immediate suspension.
Sir, you might as well suspend me now because there will be further infractions.
I gave this unit a direct written order and they have flagrantly disobeyed that order. Did they do that with your knowledge?
I ordered them to do it. I told them you countermanded your earlier order. They had no knowledge whatsoever that they were doing anything irregular.
Nice try, Mother Teresa. But they already gave themselves up.
We never said a word-
Why do people say "Eureka!" when they do something good?
It's Greek for bingo.
Well, Eureka.
Gardner Renfrew is a player in this town. You can't go to his house and screw around with him.
Why not? It's a free country.
MRMuriel Renfrew
[to Jane] Poor George dropped dead after the murder. Broke his heart, people said. George didn't really have a heart, in that sense. He died of embarrassment. A Renfrew in the pokey for murder. Quelle horreur.
