Quotes

Donald Cragen : [to Fin] Ruby Brown is not our case.
Detective Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola : Captain, she was just a little kid.
Donald Cragen : Her death was not sexually motivated and there was no child abuse. So, type up what you've done and get the file over to Homicide.
Detective Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola : Where it will just sit. No witnesses, no leads. The case will die.
Donald Cragen : All the more reason to turf it. I'm getting killed on our closure rate as it is.
Detective Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola : So our stats are more important than a little girl's life?

Donald Cragen : You disobeyed a direct order from your commanding officer.
Detective Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola : Only thing I'm sorry about is I didn't get the front page. Three inches and no photos. If our victim looked like Elizabeth Smart, we'd have a task force and a million-dollar reward.

Detective Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola : Sure. You keep telling yourself that.
