Aisha Tyler: Dr. Tara Lewis

Quotes 

• Dr. Tara Lewis : [closing quotation]  "The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life." - Richard Bach.

• Dr. Tara Lewis : There's been a strange spike in questionable opiate overdose deaths here in Los Angeles, and I think it's worth us taking a look.

  Emily Prentiss : We are right now. What do you see?

  Dr. Tara Lewis : Well, of the most recent cluster of ODs, there are seven cases that look suspicious. All of them died within 24 hours of completing rehab.

  David Rossi : Well, there are a lot of explanations besides homicide, though.

  Luke Alvez : Yeah, most addicts go back to their original dose from before they kicked, and their bodies can't tolerate it. They go into shock.

  Matt Simmons : Or their heroin could be laced with fentanyl, which is fifty to a hundred times more potent. They only use a little, and that's all it takes to kill them.

  Dr. Tara Lewis : Except we're not talking about heroin users here.

  Luke Alvez : Arm tied off, fresh needle marks, complete system shutdown. They look like heroin overdoses to me.

  Dr. Tara Lewis : I'm talking about the reason they went to rehab in the first place. They all checked in for different problems; cocaine, methamphetamine, alcohol. But after treatment, they all died of a heroin overdose. At least that's the pattern that was presented to me.

  David Rossi : That is odd. Most addicts relapse on their original drug of choice.

  Emily Prentiss : Tara, who presented this case to you?

  Dr. Tara Lewis : Uh... a Dr. Daryl Wright. He's my... he's my ex-husband.

  Penelope Garcia : He's your what what what?

• Dr. Tara Lewis : [opening quotation]  "If you don't know someone who's had a problem with addiction, you will." - Dana Boente.

• Dr. Daryl Wright : Remember when you made me pee in a cup, so you could test me?

  Dr. Tara Lewis : You mean: my proudest moment as a wife? Yeah

  Dr. Daryl Wright : Well, I cheated the test

  Dr. Tara Lewis : All right Daryl, I'll bite: how'd you cheat?
