- Russ Agnew: I knew that motel owner was good for this.
- [to the ME who doesn't like him and is refusing to speak to directly to him]
- Russ Agnew: Did you compare it to his DNA yet?
- Milt Chamberlain: [the ME motions Milt over so she can whisper in his ear. Then Milt answers Russ] No. Because she doesn't have his DNA.
- [He looks at the ME who motions him to continue. Milt looks back at Russ]
- Milt Chamberlain: Idiot.
- Russ Agnew: So, what'd your new buddy Pritchett say about me after you walked out?
- Milt Chamberlain: He didn't say anything about you.
- Russ Agnew: Yeah, right. After that blow up?
- Milt Chamberlain: That wasn't really a blow up. It was more like you were just a dog barking at the wind.
- Russ Agnew: That's not a saying.
- Milt Chamberlain: It's an idiom. Common in the deep south.
- Russ Agnew: You're an idiom.
- Russ Agnew: [Referring to the motel owner who is a murder suspect] Now that he's got a lawyer, there's no way he's going to voluntarily submit to a cheek swab. And there's *no* way that we're gonna get a warrant.
- Milt Chamberlain: Wait, wasn't he chewing tobacco when he was here? Spitting in that disgusting little cup?
- [to the ME]
- Milt Chamberlain: Is there any way that you could pull DNA off of something like that?
- Meredith Oberling: [Smiling flirtatiously at Milt] For you, I'd brave many foul things.
- Russ Agnew: Well, I'll tell you what. While you two are getting a room, I'm gonna go outside and root through the trash and look for a used spit cup which is far less nauseating than this.
- Commander Guziewicz: [to her adopted son, about being a recovering alcoholic and the day his parents were murdered] I don't know why he handed you to me that day. Maybe he had some kind of insight that I needed something to hang on to. Or more likely, I was just the only woman in the room. But, I remember thinking this is *insane*. A drunk and a baby? A drunk cop and a *baby*? But after that? There have been so many times on this job when I have been tempted to pick up a bottle, but I never have. Because I always had you to get home to. You saved me. And I would really like to return the favor.
- Russ Agnew: So?
- Meredith Oberling: So?
- Russ Agnew: So, did you find any good DNA underneath her fingernails?
- Meredith Oberling: I don't like your tone.
- Russ Agnew: Yeah, well, I don't like *you*. So, why don't you just answer the question, then we can leave each other's presence as quickly as possible?
