01x21 - Are You Now Or Have You Ever Been?

Season 1 / Episode 21: - Are You Now Or Have You Ever Been?

Judge H. Adderly: Agent Malone, you knowingly and willfully violated this man's right to be questioned with an attorney present. What were you thinking?

Jack Malone: I can tell you exactly what I was thinking. I was thinking it was 38 degrees in the Coleman Caves, and that there was a terrified young man in one of them, tied up like an animal, shot full of drugs so that Mr. Spaulding could have sex with him. I was thinking that if I turned around and went back to New York, so Mr. Spaulding could consult with his attorney, Andy Deaver would be dead by the time I got back. I can also tell you what I was not thinking. I was not thinking about his constitutional rights. I was not thinking about evidence suppression or even this trial. That's the job of this court. And this court will decide whatever it decides. But I can say this without reservation:... Given the same set of circumstances, I would do exactly the same thing because my primary responsibility was to save Andy Deaver. That's my job.

Jack Malone: That's my job.
[Note: this is what Jack did instead of lying in court]

Season 1 / Episode 21: - Are You Now Or Have You Ever Been?

Jack Malone: [amused] So you guys just tore them up?
Samantha: Well, Farrell had the originals. We tore up copies. It was more of a symbolic gesture.
Jack Malone: [smiles] I appreciate the gesture and the symbolism.
Samantha: You were right, you know.
Jack Malone: About what?
Samantha: It was dumb to lie to Farrell.
Jack Malone: Not as dumb as what I just did in there. I think I let a killer walk free, and I lost my job all in one hit.
Samantha: You know, when Farrell asked me about us, my instinct was to tell him the truth... because it's been really hard for me not telling anyone... being around you all the time and pretending like nothing never happened, you know?
Jack Malone: [quietly] I know.
Samantha: I don't think I was lying to save you. I think, in that moment, I thought maybe... if I say this, if everybody knows... then it really will be over.

Samantha: It is over, isn't it?

Jack Malone: Yeah, it's over.
