Enrique Murciano: Danny Taylor

Quotes 

• Vivian Johnson : According to the church secretary, he's a paragon of virtue and loves cats.

  Danny Taylor : According to his street clothes, he takes his vow of poverty very seriously.

• Vivian Johnson : Take a look at this.

  [showing him a picture of a youth baseball team Father Stevens sponsors] 

  Vivian Johnson : We're gonna have to interview every one of these boys.

  Danny Taylor : Because he's a priest?

  Vivian Johnson : Because he's a missing priest.

  Danny Taylor : H-He's a man of God, and he's dying, okay, so compassion.

  Vivian Johnson : You know, I want to believe in him, too, but you have got to admit, they have been testing our faith a lot these days.

  Danny Taylor : I played on a team. The St. Benedict's Dragons.

  Vivian Johnson : I find it very hard to imagine you in a white communion gown.

  Danny Taylor : I didn't actually go to church. When I was 13, I got busted shoplifting a fifth of rum from a liquor store. The judge gave me two choices: St. Benedict's after-school program or juvie. I figured a couple hours of basketball a day, how bad could it be?

  Vivian Johnson : And how bad was it?

  Danny Taylor : Father Orlando kicked my ass. Probably saved my life.

• Vivian Johnson : [finding a hidden cache of bloody money in Father Stevens' office]  What's his stipend?

  Danny Taylor : About 13 grand a year, plus medical, room and board.

  Vivian Johnson : Okay, so what's this?

• Danny Taylor : Are you nervous, Sergio? Because your hands in your pocket makes you look nervous, and usually when people are nervous, they're lying to me. Are you lying to me, Sergio?

  [to Sergio's friend] 

  Danny Taylor : Is he lying to me?

  Sergio : Look, Father Stevens is a good guy, all right? I got no beef with him.

  Danny Taylor : Okay, well someone does, and I'm trying to save his life, and you guys are not helping me.

• Teresa Powers : I had nothing to do with his disappearance.

  Jack Malone : Well, according to this report, a kid in the after-school program saw you fight with Father Stevens a couple days before.

  Teresa Powers : Which kid? Same ones who beat David up, or the ones that call him names because his father ran out on us? Not great witnesses as far as I'm concerned.

  Danny Taylor : Ms. Powers, that kid seems to think that there's something going on between David and Father Stevens.

  Teresa Powers : Well there wasn't.

  Jack Malone : Then tell us what you were fighting about.

  Teresa Powers : It's none of your business.

  Jack Malone : If Stevens went missing because he was abusing your son, then it is my business.

• Danny Taylor : I really don't think that priest did anything to that kid.

  Jack Malone : Do you think if she knew anything, she'd admit it? That would give her motive.

  Danny Taylor : I-I agree with you. I think she's covering up for something. I-I just don't think it's that.

  [seeing Jack's look] 

  Jack Malone : I-I-I don't.

  Jack Malone : All right, fine. Want you to set up for surveillance and find out what she is covering up.

• Martin Fitzgerald : Well, Father Stevens is nothing if not generous.

  Danny Taylor : It looks like Doyle hasn't been here in a while.

  Martin Fitzgerald : This guy's an ex-con.

  Danny Taylor : What?

  Martin Fitzgerald : Prison art.

  Danny Taylor : What, did you do a nickel at Pelican Bay? 'Cause if you did, I'm gonna be a whole lot nicer to you.
