Quotes 

• Jack McCoy : I bought you dinner. I didn't know what you liked, so I got you salad, low-cal dressing...

  Abbie Carmichael : Low-cal?

  Jack McCoy : Excuse me?

  Abbie Carmichael : I burn it, I don't store it... What did you get?

  Jack McCoy : Ribs.

  Abbie Carmichael : Great.

  [takes the ribs] 

  Abbie Carmichael : Looks good. I'll eat, you graze.

• Jack McCoy : Your first death sentence. You OK with it?

  Abbie Carmichael : There's only one thing bothering me: Ray Ray, the squeegee man. The cops told him which one was Fratelli.

  Jack McCoy : I know; I told them to. Perfectly legal. We were never going to use the identification at trial anyway.

  Abbie Carmichael : Legal or not...

  Jack McCoy : Major felonies, Abbie. Welcome to the bigs.

• D.A. Adam Schiff : [after the US district court has ruled that federal plea bargains are illegal]  Preposterous decision. Hogties every federal prosecutor in the country. And, thanks to you, we're part of it.

  Jack McCoy : The decision will be reversed on appeal. Six months from now. By then Dietrich and the other two will be on death row.

  D.A. Adam Schiff : ...or your letter of resignation will be on my desk.

  Abbie Carmichael : [pointing to wall of McCoy's office]  My longhorn pennant will look good over there.

• Detective Rey Curtis : [after Fratelli been picked out of a lineup and agreed to co-operate]  He blinked.

  Abbie Carmichael : Yeah, thanks to Mr Davis.

  Detective Lennie Briscoe : Good ol' Ray Ray. The trick was giving him a number he couldn't forget: three. Rhymes with "squeegee"

• Abbie Carmichael : [referring to a possible federal plea bargain]  By the time the Feds get done with Dietrich they'll be naming bird sanctuaries after him.
