- Capt. Harry Lipschitz: Listen, this is from Miami PD. Hartford, a. k. a Hart Sullivan, he was also wanted for murder. Since he offed himself in our jurisdiction, I want you two to drive down there.
- Det. Sgt. Tom Ryan: Let's see, who do we know in Miami?
- Det. Sgt. Cassandra 'Cassy' St. John: Oh, no. No, no, no, don't even start.
- Capt. Harry Lipschitz: [realizes] Evelyn.
- Det. Sgt. Cassandra 'Cassy' St. John: No, it's not a holiday, and there hasn't been a death in the family. Look,
- [stammers]
- Det. Sgt. Cassandra 'Cassy' St. John: I don't have any intention to drop in on my mother. We are quite content leading our separate lives.
- Capt. Harry Lipschitz: Separate.
- Det. Sgt. Cassandra 'Cassy' St. John: As in apart.
- Det. Sgt. Tom Ryan: So we have no problem with you going to Miami.
- Det. Sgt. Cassandra 'Cassy' St. John: *No*, not a problem.
- [Tom nods at Harry, Harry nods back]

- Det. Sgt. Tom Ryan: There's your mother.
- Det. Sgt. Cassandra 'Cassy' St. John: [nervously scanning surroundings] Where?
- Det. Sgt. Tom Ryan: Glad to see nothing big's bothering you. Nothing that, say, six or seven hundred sessions with a psychoanalyst couldn't cure.
- Det. Sgt. Cassandra 'Cassy' St. John: It's not complex, it's simple. I just feel guilty because I don't have a closer relationship with her.
- Det. Sgt. Tom Ryan: How can you have a close relationship with somebody you don't even like?
- Det. Sgt. Cassandra 'Cassy' St. John: I didn't say I don't like her.
- Det. Sgt. Tom Ryan: You did.
- Det. Sgt. Cassandra 'Cassy' St. John: No, I didn't. I just said I feel guilty, that's all. I mean, what daughter doesn't love her mother?
- Det. Sgt. Tom Ryan: Well, there's Christina of Joan, Mia's Soon-Yi, then there's Lizzie Borden...
