- D.A. Adam Schiff: If you'll pardon my ignorance, isn't your theory getting to be like theirs? They say he was an outraged boyfriend, you say he was an outraged would-be boyfriend.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: There's a world of difference between a jealous lover and some horny bastard who's mad he can't get to first base.
- D.A. Adam Schiff: Eloquent. Can't wait for your closing argument.
- D.A. Adam Schiff: [last lines] This kid falls in love with a girl he has no chance in the world to get.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: And in a stupid, hopeless attempt to impress her, he shows her a million dollars worth of cocaine.
- D.A. Adam Schiff: Yeah, I guess etchings don't work anymore.
- A.D.A. Claire Kincaid: And as a result he ends up having to kill her.
- D.A. Adam Schiff: A story for Sophocles.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: Or Larry, Moe and Curley.
- D.A. Adam Schiff: Yeah. I always loved those guys.
- D.A. Adam Schiff: Scannel is a major drug dealer. This Johnny Stivers works for him. Stivers doles out drugs to Sharon Lasko. Wild idea, but her death just might have something to do with drugs.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: She told you someone showed her a trunk full of cocaine.
- Frederick Scannel: Did she?
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: Yes, and I think it was your cocaine.
- Frederick Scannel: And that's not very likely. I don't have any cocaine.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: And you didn't like hearing that from some dizzy bimbo at a party.
- Nance: Do you have a theory here, McCoy, or are you just spraying Cheez Whiz into the wind?
- Amber: [being interviewed by police while selling perfume] Look -- I'm on commission here, if either one of you is interested?
- Detective Lennie Briscoe: [smells perfume] Hmmmm. What's the fragrance -- radishes?
- Amber: You like it? I've got it in aftershave!
- Detective Lennie Briscoe: Do you, uh, splash it on personally?
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: [discussing Johnny Stivers' claim that Sharon Lasko was in love with him] Men have a way of deluding themselves.
- A.D.A. Claire Kincaid: I hope you're not speaking from personal experience.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: [suggestively] Not recent, I hope!
