- [Adam has witnessed a murder over the internet]
- Detective Mac Taylor: You're certain what you saw was real?
- Adam Ross: [nodding] I saw a man in black walk up behind a beautiful woman and choke the life right out of her. I've never seen anyone get murdered before... until tonight.
- Jo Danville: You're being ridiculous.
- Adam Ross: What?
- Jo Danville: You deal with death every day. This case is no different. Man up!
- Adam Ross: Are-are you kidding me? Jo, I-I saw this girl alive. She's not just another dead body on the slab to me.
- [realization dawns on Adam]
- Adam Ross: Oh, no. You... did you just do that so I'd spill my guts? Oh, damn it!
- Jo Danville: Sorry, Adam. You can't keep your feelings bottled up. Contents may explode under pressure.
