- John Munch: You're divorced. Divorced people don't visit each other, they hate each other... this I know.
- Meldrick Lewis: [about Crosetti's daughter] She says she can't breathe up here... I know the feeling.
- Meldrick Lewis: You got questions, huh? If you do you wanna ask 'em to me, I'm his damned partner, alright?
- Al Giardello: This isn't about faith, Frank. It's about friendship.
- Frank Pembleton: [incredulous] Friendship... yeah.
- Al Giardello: If it's ruled a suicide, his name will come off the board... if it's a murder, it'll be up there all the time... reminding us.
- John Munch: [about a eulogy to Crosetti] Why don't you just say that he was kind to old women and, uh... dogs.
- Al Giardello: He hated old women and dogs.
- John Munch: G, the whole point of a eulogy is to lie. You're supposed to make the departed seem dearly.
