Episode Quotes
 | Season 5 / Episode 7: - Took
Det. James 'Jimmy' McNulty: The quicker we bring this in and shut it down, the safer we'll all be. I mean, Landsman wants me over to fucking Quantico, have the FBI do a profile. Det. Lester Freamon: [laughs] You might learn something about yourself. |
 | Season 5 / Episode 7: - Took
Reporter: What are you reading there, Senator? State Sen. R. Clayton 'Clay' Davis: Promethus Bound. An ancient play, one of the oldest we have. About a simple man who was horrifically punished by the powers that be for the terrible crime of trying to bring light to the common people. In the words of [checks author] Ascyllius, "No good deed goes unpunished." I cannot tell you how much consolation I find in these slim pages. |
