- Asst. Dist. Atty. Catherine Chandler: [pricking her finger on a rose thorn] Ow! Damn it.
- Vincent: Catherine, are you hurt?
- Asst. Dist. Atty. Catherine Chandler: How long have you been...
- Vincent: Only a moment. You were so absorbed in your work, I didn't want to intrude.
- Deputy D.A. Joe Maxwell: Here. Take a look at this.
- [he hands her a folder; inside is a police composite sketch]
- Deputy D.A. Joe Maxwell: Last night, he delivered some flowers to an old guy by the name of Stanley Kazmarek, then shot him three times.
- Asst. Dist. Atty. Catherine Chandler: Any motive?
- Deputy D.A. Joe Maxwell: Maybe Kazmarek stiffed him on the tip. Anyway, bag lady outside gave us the face, but the cops haven't been able to make it. Turns out Kazmarek was a lot tougher than anyone figured. He's still hanging on.
- Asst. Dist. Atty. Catherine Chandler: You want me to get a statement.
- Deputy D.A. Joe Maxwell: Bingo.
- Asst. Dist. Atty. Catherine Chandler: Would you mind telling me what the hell is going on?
- Deputy D.A. Joe Maxwell: All right, Radcliffe, calm down. There's nothing we can do about it.
- Asst. Dist. Atty. Catherine Chandler: So they can just walk in, order us off the case, and that's it? It isn't even legal. I mean, their jurisdiction...
- Deputy D.A. Joe Maxwell: Hey, cool it! Now, since when does the CIA worry about what's legal? I don't like this any better than you do, but Moreno didn't ask my opinion.
- Vincent: Earlier tonight, for a moment, I felt your fear.
- Asst. Dist. Atty. Catherine Chandler: In the garage?
- Vincent: I was coming for you, but suddenly the fear disappeared when you saw him.
- Asst. Dist. Atty. Catherine Chandler: Elliot may be... many things, but he would never hurt me.
- Vincent: Your mind is full of doubts, but your heart still trusts this man.
- Asst. Dist. Atty. Catherine Chandler: Are you saying that I should help him?
- Vincent: We must, Catherine. I owe you my life.
