Sam Waterston: Interim DA Jack McCoy

Quotes 

• Jack McCoy : What are you doing about the Bipolar Roller?

  Connie Rubirosa : We dropped our opposition to bail and his brother in California posted bond.

  Michael Cutter : [to Cutter]  Fax from forensics for you.

  [pause, then to Connie] 

  Jack McCoy : Skater posted bond? He's out?

  Connie Rubirosa : Mm-hmm.

  Michael Cutter : A couple hours ago. Why?

  Jack McCoy : That old knife sheath of his the police found? It had no connection to the current murders, but it had DNA inside that matches five of the serial killer's previous victims.

  Michael Cutter : Jonah Applebaum is the Boxcar Basher?

  Jack McCoy : You just put an insane serial killer back on the street.

  Connie Rubirosa : He doesn't know that we know that. We... we can still pick him up.

  Jack McCoy : You damn well better. This could be Willie Horton all over again.

  Michael Cutter : Willie Horton? You're not worried about the election, are you?

  Jack McCoy : I'm worried about everything. About him killing someone else. About the way this office is run. A serial killer in our hands and then released. Am I being too picky?

• Connie Rubirosa : You don't win, Jack, I'm out of here into private practice.

  Jack McCoy : I'll join you. McCoy and Rubirosa, no client too guilty.

  Connie Rubirosa : Er, Rubirosa and McCoy

  Michael Cutter : Can't I come too?

  Jack McCoy : [Shaking his head]  Someone has to watch the store.
