Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (TV Series)

Loss (2003)

David Thornton: Defense Attorney Lionel Granger

Quotes 

• Lionel Granger : [to Cabot]  Tell you what, you get your informant lined up, I promise we'll take the deal.

  Alex Cabot : Take it now or it's gone. And for future reference, if your client intimidates the informant in any way, I will have his bail revoked and his ass thrown in Rikers for the duration of the trial.

  Rafael Zapata : You can't threaten me, bitch.

  Alex Cabot : I just did.

  Lionel Granger : We're going.

  Rafael Zapata : [to Granger]  You allow this? A woman says these things and you do nothing?

  Alex Cabot : Yes, Mr. Zapata. You will also find that a woman can say whatever she wants to about your performance in the bedroom, and you aren't actually allowed to kill her.

• Alex Cabot : Zapata still has you on retainer, I see. That explains the $3,000 suit. How'd you get the blood out?

  Lionel Granger : My wife bought me this suit. Everybody deserves a defense, Alex.

  Alex Cabot : I would believe your idealism if you weren't enjoying yourself so much.

  Lionel Granger : I'm just a naturally happy person.
