- Detective Lennie Briscoe: [Referring to the victim] Looks like she had a little spare time. Diaphragm. "What you need to know before starting to take the pill". Suspenders AND a belt!
- A.D.A. Jamie Ross: It doesn't look like we're going to get a confession.
- Adam Schiff: Why should he confess? You'll probably be arresting someone else tomorrow.
- Detective Rey Curtis: [questioning suspect's assistant] You know what's going on. And, I got to say, you strike me as a very perceptive person.
- Jane: It's a good thing you're good-looking, honey, if that's the best line you can come up with!
- Detective Lennie Briscoe: Sadly, it is.
- Timothy Stevens: [referring to the victim] I saw Charles Evans' hand under her blouse. I don't think he was looking for typos.
- Detective Rey Curtis: Why didn't we hear this before?
- Timothy Stevens: Charles needs a new editor now. I'd rather have him writing than fending off the police.
- Detective Rey Curtis: He needs a new editor because his old one is dead. It's called a motive.
- Timothy Stevens: If I killed every editor I competed with, this would be a pretty small literary community.
- Detective Lennie Briscoe: Yeah, "Timothyville". You'd like that, wouldn't you?
- Detective Lennie Briscoe: We come down on her and we're wrong, we could be breaking up one very snooty couple. It might actually ruin my sleep for minutes.
- Professor Charles Evans: [Referring to his affair with the victim] It wasn't grand passion, just wine at lunch, you know?
- A.D.A. Jamie Ross: I don't drink at lunch.
- Professor Charles Evans: And I don't kiss and tell.
- A.D.A. Jamie Ross: [leaving the courtroom after the verdict has been read] What do you think she was gonna say to him?
- Jack McCoy: [confidently] "Thank you for ruining my life."
- A.D.A. Jamie Ross: [smiling knowingly] "Please take me back".
- [McCoy's eyes widen in disbelief; fade to black]
- Lt. Anita Van Buren: Nothing like fathering another woman's child to cement a relationship.
- Detective Lennie Briscoe: Almost as good as panties in the glove compartment.
- Detective Lennie Briscoe: Rey, Isn't that one of those EZ-Passes they use for going through the tolls?
- Detective Rey Curtis: Yeah, you ever seen the line coming back from a weekend in the country?
- Detective Lennie Briscoe: On Monday mornings, I usually take a chopper.
