Quotes
-
Jason Bull : I'm expecting our new clients in about a half hour. I have nothing for them. Bring them to the mock courtroom, make sure everybody's there.
Marissa Morgan : Got it. Yeah, I should warn you, Bull, Chunk's been looking for you all morning.
Jason Bull : What does he want?
Marissa Morgan : I don't know. But he's... dressed strangely.
Jason Bull : Really? How can you tell?

Jason Bull : Who died?

Marissa Morgan : Who gave you a check for a quarter of a million dollars?
Jason Bull : The Clayton family estate. They're pressuring the D.A. to try the young widow Clayton for the murder of her husband.
Marissa Morgan : Murder? Based on...
Jason Bull : Based on the fact that she shot him. A fact she does not dispute. Can you say "money in the bank"?
Marissa Morgan : Okay. But according to the paper, the late Mr. Clayton was attempting to slice and dice his dearly beloved just prior to her deciding to use him for target practice. I believe they call that "self-defense".
Jason Bull : Maybe. Or maybe she shot first and he stabbed her in self-defense. Who cares? It's a quarter of a million dollar retainer, and another quarter of a million if we actually go to trial and find Mrs. Clayton guilty.
Marissa Morgan : Wow. I had no idea the famous Dr. Jason Bull can be bought.
Jason Bull : For a quarter of a million dollars, not only can I be bought, you can gift wrap me. Which reminds me, guess who's in town?
Marissa Morgan : I'm sorry, did I miss a change of subject?
Jason Bull : The best un-wrapper in the world. Ms. Diana Lindsay, attorney-at-law. Single woman at large.
