Quotes 

• David Hanley : My clients are willing to increase their offer.

  Billy Crawford : We're listening.

  David Hanley : They'll double it. 500 grand for each girl paid out over ten years.

  Joanna Hanley : No.

  David Hanley : I'm sure your clients would want to hear it.

  Joanna Hanley : We want you to clean up the dump site. And we want a $1 million fund for future clean-up. And $2 million each per girl.

  David Hanley : Hey, you wanna go to trial, that's fine with me. The only people in a class action who are guaranteed to win are the defense lawyers. My clock's running. What about yours?

  Joanna Hanley : Agree to our terms, or here's what's gonna happen. We're gonna go back into that courtroom...

  [giving him a small slip of paper] 

  Joanna Hanley : ...and I'm gonna ask you about this. Go back to your client and sell them on our settlement offer. You make them take it. Otherwise, I will introduce that into open court.

  David Hanley : That's how it's gonna be?

  Billy Crawford : [watching him leave]  What was that?

  Joanna Hanley : [showing him the paper]  It's Gerrilyn's birth certificate. When Luna was born, when she and my dad were together, Gerrilyn was underage.

• Molly Ross : Two million!

  Billy Crawford : That's for medical bills, and if anything else comes up in the future.

  Georgia Lewis : But we just get it? Like, in cash, in our bank accounts?

  Billy Crawford : No, you don't just get it like a big bag of cash. It's structured. We're gonna help you organize everything.

• Billy Crawford : About our fee, you need to tell me where to send your half.

  Joanna Hanley : Just give mine back to the girls.

  Billy Crawford : Come on, you earned it.

  Joanna Hanley : I don't want it.

  Billy Crawford : Joanna... Joanna, you can stop running. People love you in Millwood.

  [she scoffs] 

  Billy Crawford : Okay, look, not everybody. Some people. The right people. You're quirky, and you're weird, and... you're a lot of work sometimes, but... I know you like it here. Except for a few bumps at the beginning, we made pretty good partners.

  Joanna Hanley : Yeah, it wasn't a great start.

  Billy Crawford : All that matters is the finish. We have complementary skill sets.

  Joanna Hanley : Nice cop, weird, uptight cop?

  Billy Crawford : Exactly. That's why it could work. It could be Crawford Hanley. Or... Hanley Crawford.

  Joanna Hanley : Billy, I'm sorry. I, um... I got offered a job in Winnipeg. I'm going to accept it.
