Quotes 

• Joss Carter : Any idea how the police ended up on the wrong side of town?

  Harold Finch : Ms. Morgan gave me a tip regarding an underground gambling ring. I just wanted to make sure the police discovered and stopped it.

  Joss Carter : So you left the SUV they were looking for near the building.

  Harold Finch : Of course I didn't. Mr. Reese took care of that. I was merely doing my civic duty.

• Joss Carter : Vanessa told me she didn't kill her husband.

  John Reese : Do you think she's innocent?

  Joss Carter : I don't know. But in that moment, I thought she was telling the truth.

  John Reese : I guess the former prosecutor doesn't trust the system, then.

  Joss Carter : Think I'd be standing here in a uniform if the system always worked?

• Vanessa Watkins : My husband wasn't murdered. He drowned. Someone planted that evidence and framed me.

  Joss Carter : Prove it.

  Vanessa Watkins : I'm the Defense. Burden of proof lies with you.

  Joss Carter : You can object.

  Vanessa Watkins : Fine, I object.

  Harold Finch : Overruled.

• Officer Mike Laskey : Detective Terney seems a little, uh, intense. Any advice on how to get along with him?

  Joss Carter : Some people on the force, you're better off keeping your distance.

  Officer Mike Laskey : Not sure I get what you mean.

  Joss Carter : You will.
