Boston Legal (TV Series)

Duck and Cover (2007)

Candice Bergen: Shirley Schmidt

Quotes 

• Jerry 'Hands' Espenson : I've handled multinational corporate bankruptcies, high-profile murder cases, and defended manufacturing giants against product liability charges.

  Shirley Schmidt : Yes?

  Jerry 'Hands' Espenson : And you assign me the duck lady!

  Shirley Schmidt : Is she just sitting alone in your office?

  Jerry 'Hands' Espenson : She has the duck! I can only surmise you did this because, one, you're hazing me since I'm the new guy again, or two, you think my Asperger's allows me to relate to anyone colorful, or three, you're having second thoughts about rehiring me.

  Shirley Schmidt : It's four. I'm a name partner and I don't - underscore - have to explain myself to you.

  Jerry 'Hands' Espenson : Well, that's a conversation-stopper.
