Dylan McDermott: Bobby Donnell

Quotes 

• Bobby Donnell : In his own garage?

  Helen Gamble : Yes. I assuming that you gave him no indication.

  Bobby Donnell : Of course not.

  Helen Gamble : Does he know that knocking off the D.A. won't do much good? We do have more.

  Bobby Donnell : We may have led him to believe that this particular D.A. was a nemesis. We will set him straight on that.

  Ellenor Frutt : What an idiot.

  Bobby Donnell : And so where are we?

  Helen Gamble : Richard's bent on continuing. And you know him. Now you will have a conversation with your client.

  Bobby Donnell : Oh, yes.

• Bobby Donnell : We can't put him up there.

  Jackie Cahill : It's still an alibi. They can't prove he's lying, which he isn't.

  Ellenor Frutt : They wouldn't have to prove he's lying. He looks like it, he sounds like it, he - he personifies dishonesty, and by putting him up there, we would be helping the prosecution, trust me.

  Jackie Cahill : Why the hell didn't you protect him? You should have been objecting or something.

  Bobby Donnell : The questions weren't objectionable, and it was a discovery. Look, 30 years is better than life, if it's still on the table.

  Jackie Cahill : No!

  Bobby Donnell : Try to get this - we got no rabbits to pull.

  Jackie Cahill : What about your plan "b" strategy?

  Bobby Donnell : A witness saw you pull the trigger. Plus this DA and he knows us. And I know him, he is not going to drop the ball. We cannot win this case.

  Jackie Cahill : All right. Let me think about. Can I think about it?

  Bobby Donnell : We're not scheduled to go again till tomorrow, so, yeah.

  [sighed] 

  Bobby Donnell : Take the night.

  Ellenor Frutt : Look, we don't like you, which is true. You think because we don't like you, we are not doing everything we possibly can, which is not true.

  Jackie Cahill : Okay. Okay.

• Jackie Cahill : I'm as shocked as you are.

  Bobby Donnell : Don't give me that.

  Ellenor Frutt : Are you that stupid? You think killing the district attorney will actually help you?

  Jackie Cahill : I will never hurt anybody, Ms. Frutt, but you know what? Our relationship is so deteriorating here, that maybe you two should get off this case. I should find myself new representation.

  Ellenor Frutt : So you can buy time? Time to execute the witness?

  Bobby Donnell : We'd love to get off, Jackie, but the judge will never let that happened, not at this point.

  Jackie Cahill : If you told him that your disgust prevents you from doing you best work.

  Bobby Donnell : The problem is I do my best work with disgusting client. We're stuck with each other. The trial is going on. There's plenty more district attorneys where Richard Bay came from, so going after him will get you nothing.

  Jackie Cahill : Nothing? No. You underestimate the value of a smile. It's the simple pleasures, counsel.
