Captain Linc Evers : We have to.
Officer Kate Manners : What, ah, what motive are we looking for on the case?
Captain Linc Evers : Well, it could be some nut looking for revenge. Could be sex, money... What else is there?

Captain Linc Evers : That, too.

[her young daughter]
Captain Linc Evers : Donna?
