Michael Kostroff: Evan Braun

Quotes 

• Evan Braun : Look, you're new to this, Mr. Carisi. The only thing that matters is what we decide right here, right now in this room. And if you want him to flip, he goes home to his family.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Either he was there or he wasn't.

  Evan Braun : My client got a call from an old friend. He loaned him his boat. He had no idea what was going on, and if he had known, he would've called the cops.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Well, that doesn't help my case.

  Evan Braun : He only realized what happened when he saw the mess on his boat. He confronted his friend, who told him about the gang rape in detail, which we will provide.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : No. I'm not gonna have him lie on the stand.

  Evan Braun : Oh, you don't want this to go to trial. That girl, she'll be a puddle when I get through with her.

• Evan Braun : We're listening, counselor.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Your client took a call from one of the perps. He then called Frank Corso, who met him at Clemente's. His DNA is all over the crime scene.

  Evan Braun : Ah, no. You mean all over his boat. Not the rape kit.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : That's why we're sittin' here.

  Evan Braun : You want him to cooperate, he walks.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Not on this, he doesn't. This girl remembers more every day, and now she places him on the boat.

  Anthony Marino : That girl's a bagful of crazy.

  Evan Braun : [urging him to be quiet]  Anthony.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : How would you know that, Anthony? Since, uh, you were never on the boat, right?

  Anthony Marino : All right, I was there. But the minute I saw how messed up she was, I left. I didn't want nothing to do with it.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : You just... you left? You didn't intervene? You didn't call the police? Nothing?

  Evan Braun : He's here now. Good Samaritan. You want him to testify against those other three goons, he walks.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Uh-uh. He just placed himself on the boat.
