Episode Quotes

Brenda: (after kissing Fritz in the hallway) Is this my Jane Doe?
Fritz: So much for foreplay.

Brenda: (on the phone with Sgt. Gabriel) I found Croelick. He's on my front porch. Be nice if we had some company.

Brenda: I promise this is the absolute last time Lisa will die.

Mr. Barnes: I have Lisa's death certificate!
Brenda: So do I. Only mine's a little more recent.

Brenda: Maybe she trained for her suicide with Cirque du Soleil.

Capt. Taylor: The FBI hates her. The DA's office hates her. The forensics specialists hate her. Everyone wants Croelick back in jail. But no one's gonna help her put him there.

Brenda: Doctor, do you think you could take another peek inside?
M.E.: Chief Johnson, where exactly do you see an inside?

Capt. Taylor: That one's gonna cost her.
Flynn: You want someone to gloat to? Grab a mirror. As for me, I'm putting in for permanent transfer to her squad.
