Law & Order
Thursdays 8:00 PM on NBCLaw & Order Quotes
I'll send the report over. But Nolan, he threw a punch for me. Who does that? And as stupid and reckless as that was, I appreciate it.
Dixon
Man: You don't get to walk away like those other people didn't exist, like my Theresa didn't exist!
Maroun: Sir, of course she existed. All we're saying is we don't have enough evidence yet to move forward.
Man: And why is that?
Maroun: You'd have to talk to the police.
Man: And they'll tell me the same nonsense they've been telling me. WHy don't you admit that y'all don't care about poor Black people? Cause if you did, you'd have all that damn evidence you say you need.
Maroun: The people seek remand. The defendant's DNA was found under the victim's fingernails, and it's worth noting that he is a suspect in three other homicides. Plus, he took a woman hostage and held a gun to her head, and we'll be adding kidnapping charges later today. Given that and his financial means, this defendant is a flight risk.
Defense attorney: Your honor, the evidence is weak. This is a witch hunt meant to score headlines.
Judge: Defendant is remanded.
Defense attorney: Your Honor, he's willing to pay a 5 million dollar bond.
Judge: He can be willing to pay 5 billion dollars for all I care. This is about safety.
Riley: We got him.
Shaw: Now we just gotta find him.
Shaw: So obviously I didn't know Olivia Washington was a sex worker. I missed that in her file. I just t thought...
Riley: I was fishing for gossip?
Shaw: So Olivia's case just went cold.
Riley: Yeah, no body, no witnesses.
Shaw: I think it'sstrange nobody found anything.
Riley: Yeah?
Shaw: Yeah.
Riley: You've been working Homicide for a few years, right?
Shaw: True.
Riley: So you know it's not that strange in cases like that.
Shaw: Cases like that?
Riley: Missing person's cases. Look, if you have something to say to me, bro, just say it.
Shaw: I am saying it.
Riley: Yeah? Which is what?
Shaw: That poor Black girls don't et the same kind of love as rich white girls.
Riley: That was my case. I was lead on that. We couldn't find anything. No body, no anything. The case went cold.
Shaw: Not quite. Someone found her on February 11, 2021, buried in an industrial complex in Long Island City.
Riley: I didn't know that. I was transferred out in November.
There are too many criminals out there. And they just keep getting more brazen, because nobody cares.
Mother
Shaw: Was Celeste dating anyone?
Mother: I don't know. We didn't really talk about her social life.
Riley: Was there a reason for that?
Mother: People are age see things differently. She didn't think I could understand. So we just didn't talk about it.
Price: So you're telling us that your key card was cloned, the murder weapon was planted, and now security video was created out of thin air using advanced technology, all to frame you?
Stafford: Please, you have to believe me.
Price: Why should we believe you when we can see what happened with our own eyes?
Just be careful. The motive is just as likely to hurt as to help. Fear of losing one's job to AI is pervasive these days. All I'm saying, Nolan, is that it's going to be easier to sympathize with the man who lost his job than the billionaire who fired hundreds of employees.
McCoy
Research shows that people prefer giving artificial intelligence a female name and pronouns. Makes it less creepy.
Tech
James: Look, Evan and I were like brothers. That means sometimes we fight like brothers.
Riley: Did you ever fight over Eva?
James: Eva? No, that was Evan's purview. But what does Eva have to do with anything?
Riley: You tell us. We don't even know who Eva is.
James: Eva isn't a woman. She's a software program, the most advanced AI there is.
