"Law & Order" Discord (TV Episode 1993) - Michael Moriarty as Executive ADA Ben Stone

D.A. Adam Schiff : [When Julia decides not to testify in court] Yeah, well, it's for the best. You'll have a hell of a time explaining what that girl was doing in his room after midnight.

Executive A.D.A. Ben Stone : But does the 70-year-old mugging victim have to explain why he was riding alone on a subway at night?

D.A. Adam Schiff : Well, it'd make our job easier.

Executive A.D.A. Ben Stone : Of course it would. We wouldn't have any more victims.
Executive A.D.A. Ben Stone : She told him to stop, Adam.

D.A. Adam Schiff : Yeah. I tell my grandson, "Your mother doesn't want you eating any candy." And then I leave him alone in a room with a jar full of M&Ms.

Executive A.D.A. Ben Stone : Julia Wood is not a piece of candy, Adam.

D.A. Adam Schiff : To Clarence Carmichael, she is.
ADA Claire Kincaid : [Claire, thinking her assignment as Ben's assistant D.A. is over due to her mistake] I'm preparing a calendar of pending cases. I'll forward it to your secretary. For all the problems we had, I do want to thank you for a learning experience.

Executive A.D.A. Ben Stone : These working relationships, they can be very difficult. I remember one assistant, he stapled an internal memo to a document that he then sent to defendant's counsel and that case was lost. I thought it was a career-ender but they gave me another chance. So, see you in the morning?
