Detective Mac Taylor : You know what's great about the San Gennaro Festival?
Detective Stella Bonasera : Hmm. The constant throng of rubberneckers or the fact that your crime scene is already contaminated before you get the call?
Detective Mac Taylor : [pointing to a food cart] The cannolis.

Detective Danny Messer : [showing Mac and Stella evidence photos] The fiber you found from the katana sword, Mac; fiber I pulled from Greg Thompson's overcoat. They match.
Detective Stella Bonasera : Where in the overcoat did you find the fiber?
Detective Danny Messer : From a one-inch slice inside the lining, waist-high. The last two calls on Greg Thompson's cell phone were to Jared Stanton.
Detective Stella Bonasera : All right, we know why Jared was in the park. Greg lured him there.
Detective Danny Messer : Icing on the cake: found bark from the tree at the scene of the crime on the seat of his overcoat.
Detective Mac Taylor : That explains why Jared Stanton never moved. He didn't know Greg was already there. The head never came off. One cut, one kill... matching the angle of the cut on Jared Stanton's neck, moving from low to high.
Detective Danny Messer : Bingo. We know Greg Thompson killed Jared Stanton.
Detective Stella Bonasera : Great. We've got our murderer. Now we just have to prove who murdered him.

Detective Stella Bonasera : He wasn't beaten to death?
Dr. Evan Zao : That's just salt in the wound. Punches all came after the fact. They're postmortem. But this...
[holding up a wood splinter]
Dr. Evan Zao : ...pierced the sinoatrial node, disrupting his heart's electrical impulses. It's your murder weapon.
Detective Stella Bonasera : It's inconsistent with the evidence we found at the scene.
Dr. Evan Zao : Maybe San Gennarro wasn't the main event for this guy.

[owner previously told detectives about a wild martial arts fight in her billiards hall]
Detective Danny Messer : I cannot believe the evidence is gonna back the pool lady's story, but it was a perfect tread impression on that ceiling.
Detective Stella Bonasera : And the killer splinter came from this cue.
Detective Danny Messer : So we're looking for a combination of Spider-Man and Minnesota Fats.
[Note: "Minnesota Fats" is nickname used by both a fictional and a real pool hustler]

Detective Stella Bonasera : I think the Italians got it right. Live to eat, not eat to live.
Detective Danny Messer : That's what I'm talking about.
