Quotes
-
Lennie Briscoe : I hear McCoy's on the warpath.
Anita Van Buren : Let's say... the drums are beating loud and clear. What did the M.E. have to say?
Ed Green : The M.E. on the scene was a hair off. Sixteen puncture wounds.
Lennie Briscoe : And a .38 caliber bullet.
Anita Van Buren : They shot him, too?
Lennie Briscoe : First. Close-up to the heart. Tenofskie was dead before he hit the ground.
Anita Van Buren : D.A.s tend to make a lot of enemies in the real world.
Ed Green : Somebody sure took it personally.

Ed Green : Hey, when did you say Tenofskie graduated Brooklyn Law?
Lennie Briscoe : Uh... the diploma in his office said 1980.
Ed Green : So that would have meant he would have been in Brooklyn from... '77 on.
Lennie Briscoe : Yeah. Brooklyn Law School is, uh... three years if you go days, four years if you go nights.
[seeing Ed's look of surprise]
Lennie Briscoe : I thought about it a while back.
Ed Green : You'd have made a hell of a shyster.
Lennie Briscoe : Bite your tongue. So, what's the sudden interest in Tenofskie's domicile twenty years ago?
Ed Green : Well, this dude saved everything, including rent receipts.
Lennie Briscoe : Hey, he was a little obsessive.
Ed Green : Yeah, well, according to these receipts, he lived in Phoenix in '78 and '79, while attending law school in Brooklyn.
Lennie Briscoe : That's a hell of a commute.
