• [Sam has to testify as Katie at her rape trial the next morning] 

  Sam : Al. I think I figured out the solution to the problem.

  Al : Well, then you're doing better than me and Ziggy.

  Sam : Who's the one person who can tell us the truth about what happened that night?

  Al : Katie.

  Sam : Right. So we bring her in to testify.

  Al : A-ha. How can we do that? She's in the waiting room.

  Sam : No, wait a second. What if she's in the imaging chamber?

  Al : And touching me!

  Sam : Then I can see her.

  Al : Yeah, but you couldn't hear her. And your lip-reading is terrible, as- Oh! I could repeat everything she says.

  Sam : No, no, no, that would take too long. You have to figure out a way for me to hear her.

  Al : How?

  Sam : Well, I haven't figured that out. That's for you and Ziggy to work out.

  Al : In twelve hours?

  Sam : Oh, come on, twelve hours. What's twelve hours? You and Ziggy together? Come on!

  Al : What makes you so sure?

  Sam : It's all the time I got.

• [Al enters through the imaging chamber door with Katie McBain] 

  Al : We did it, Sam. We did it. Of course, it took enough power to light up St. Louis for a month, but we did it.

• [Kevin has been acquitted for the rape] 

  Nancy : I'm sorry. After your testimony, I was sure they'd convict him.

  Colleen : You have to forget this, Katie. We'll, we'll-we'll go somewhere-, we'll go somewhere where no one know us.

  Sam : I'm not running away. I've done nothing to be ashamed of.

  Nancy : Your mom's right about putting it behind you, Katie.

  Sam : How? How am I supposed to forget everything that's happened? And I'm not just talking about the rape, I'm talking about everything that's happened to me since then.

  Nancy : I forgot by becoming a prosecuting attorney.

  Sam : You were raped?

  Nancy : [becoming emotional]  Twelve years ago.

  Al : The guy was never convicted.

  Nancy : That's why I try to only take rape cases I think I can win. See, when I lose, I go through it all again.

  Sam : [hugs her]  I'm sorry.

  Jim : Come on, honey.

  Sam : Thank you for trying.
