  • Claire Kincaid: They still don't think they did anything wrong.
    Jack McCoy: Maybe seeing their friends in Attica will change their minds. edit »
  • Claire Kincaid: They filed the notice of appeal. All evidence relating to the Mack Rangers should have been excluded.
    Jack McCoy: Why, because without it, Greer might've won?
    Claire Kincaid: First amendment. The Constitution?
    Adam Schiff: Yeah. That pesky thing. edit »
  • Mike Logan: Snuff films. We got a couple of fake ones in the eighties.
    Lennie Briscoe: You think she's pretending?
    (They watch as the film plays offscreen. There are screams and gunshots)
    Mike Logan: Nope. edit »
  • (Watching the teenage porn video.)
    Lennie Briscoe: Whatever happened to Spin the Bottle?
    Mike Logan: Whatever happened to their parents? edit »
  • Mike Logan: How'd you like to be in one of those movies?
    Lennie Briscoe: Are you kidding? I don't even like to look at my own x-rays. edit »
  • Lennie Briscoe: We're the police.
    Band Member: You're too late, Sting already took that one.

    A rather smart-mouthed reference to Sting and his former band The Police. They had several hit songs like Every Breath You Take and Don't Stand So Close To Me. edit »
  • This episode appears to be ripped from the headlines of the Spur Posse case. The Spur Posse was a group of high school boys from Lakewood, California, who used a point system to keep track of and compare their sexual conquests. edit »
