Quotes 

• Keith : [Veronica is in jail]  Please tell me you didn't help an accused murderer escape jail.

  Veronica : Yo Pops, check it out. This girl ain't gonna be nobody's bitch. You better recognize.

  Keith : [re: a fake tattoo]  What's that on your arm?

  Veronica : I've had some free time. And, no, I didn't help Josh escape - not intentionally. Turns out he's allergic to peanuts. His plan was to take advantage of my kindness.

  Keith : That's gotta be the first time that's worked for anybody.

  Veronica : [Cliff McCormack walks in]  Clifford, something wrong?

  Cliff McCormack : I've just remembered I need to return "Caged Heat" to the video store. You folks wanna hear the good news or the bad news first?

  Keith : I'm gonna say the good news.

  Cliff McCormack : Josh's cellmate and key witness to the Cookie Incident ate the evidence and, icing on the cake, blew a .21 on the breathalizer when they booked him. No way Lamb can get a conviction and he knows it.

  Keith : That sounds like great news.

  Cliff McCormack : But, he's gonna hold Veronica as long as he possibly can.

  Keith : Can I get you anything, honey?

  Veronica : Uh, couple cartons of smokes.

  [Keith gives her a look] 

  Veronica : What, Dad, it's currency on the inside.

  Keith : Any guess where I might find Josh?

  Veronica : Mexico?

  Keith : So you think he did it?

  Veronica : I don't know. If he didn't, he sure panicked quickly.

  Keith : That's what I thought too.

  Cliff McCormack : Anyone wanna know what I think?

  [silence] 

  Cliff McCormack : Fine, I'll keep it to myself. I'm just saying, my entire day is spent going through my clients' lives. This kid, he's on the up and up.

  Keith : Okay, I've got an appointment with Dean O'Dell's old assistant. I can't just put his murder case on hold.

  [gives Veronica a look] 

  Veronica : What?

  Keith : Just, I thought this sight would be more traumatic for me, but...

  [shrugs] 

• Keith : Honey... why is there a pistol in the freezer?

  Veronica : Because there's this guy, see, and I want to put him on ice.

• Keith : Did you bug Hank Landry's phone?

  Veronica : Wait, what?

  Keith : He just came storming into the office, saying he found a bug in his cell phone, asking me if I planted it. I didn't. Did you?

  Veronica : No.

  [He stares hard at her] 

  Veronica : Really. Come on, dad.

  [She draws a circle around her face with her hand] 

  Veronica : This is the face of truth.

  Keith : Yeah, that played better in a different context. But, okay, I'm a sucker. I believe you. Word of advice: you might want to start looking for a new mentor.

  Veronica : Wait. He suspected me?

  Keith : Vigorously. Though he emphasised that it was my bad influence, that you're a sharp kid, just a bit misguided.

  Veronica : The movie. He knew why I asked about Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.

  Keith : You want to pick at his alibi, you should have asked him about the Clippers game that night. Men routinely accept the idea that women don't know sports. That's just a... mentoring sample, for if you're interested.

• Veronica : I didn't help Josh escape, not intentionally. Turns out he's allergic to peanuts. His plan was to take advantage of my kindness.

  Keith : That's gotta be the first time that's worked for anybody!
