Quotes
-
Perry Sinclair : Dr. Bull, Perry Sinclair.
Jason Bull : Hey.
Perry Sinclair : Thank you for joining us.
Jason Bull : Well, how could I resist? Look at this room. Who do we have here?
Perry Sinclair : This is George Donahue, Clayton Communications' COO.
George Donahue : Doctor.
Jason Bull : It's an honor. And look at this. Six different law firms represented here. It's like the New York Yankees of attorneys. What happened? Bill Gates run a traffic light?
Perry Sinclair : [the group shares a laugh] Have a seat, Dr. Bull.
Jason Bull : All right, but only 'cause you outnumber me.
-
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?
[cut to Bull entering his office; Chunk is waiting outside dressed in a three-piece suit]
Jason Bull : Who died?

Diana Lindsay : I am not talking to you. You are not a good friend.
Jason Bull : Why? Because I won't renege on a professional commitment the second you snap your fingers? And for the record, I am a great friend. I am a fantastic friend. I am the Rachel of friends, if Rachel were a boy.
Diana Lindsay : You used to be so smart.
Jason Bull : That notwithstanding, I'd like to proffer a settlement from Clayton Communcations and the Clayton family
Diana Lindsay : Well, you can save your breath because we are not interested in settling.
Jason Bull : But you haven't heard the offer.
Diana Lindsay : I don't need to hear the offer.
Jason Bull : Take a million dollars...
Diana Lindsay : Ha! You take a million dollars.
Jason Bull : ...and multiply it by 500. Wait, my mistake. Let me put it another way. Take a billion dollars and divide it in half.
Diana Lindsay : Is this for real?
Jason Bull : Doesn't get any realer.
-
Jason Bull : So, certainly got your name in the paper a lot. Think you'll be back?
Diana Lindsay : Oh, you can count on it, Dr. Bull. I'm not done with you yet. I told you, I like 'em stupid.
Jason Bull : Really? Me, stupid?
Diana Lindsay : Mm-hmm. Give me a stupid genius over a smart idiot any day.

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.
