• Dr. George Huang : [to Novak about Chelsea]  I'll call you after we're done. I'll let you know if the suicide threat was sincere.

  Casey Novak : I have three days left on my continuance, so I don't think she'll do anything until the charges are dismissed.

  Dr. George Huang : I'll see what I can do.

  Casey Novak : Thank you.

  Dr. George Huang : Don't thank me yet. I don't have a lot of stock with the domestic terrorism team. They see me as the sex crimes guy. It's not something they have a lot of use for.

  Casey Novak : Then what the hell are they doing with Liv?
