HALF LIFE (This is an episode of "Medical Investigation that is the second half of the crossover) 2/18/2005 10:00p
A guy gets eaten by a lion. A lion! Now there’s something I never saw coming.

{in Banks’ apartment}
Connor: Who is this guy?
Yokas: Dr. Dolittle.

Connor: I don’t think you’re gonna need your cuffs.
Yokas: I don’t think I have a dart gun big enough for that…We’re gonna need Animal Control and the Bronx Zoo.

Yokas: Believe it or not, that was my first lion.

{about Banks}
Yokas: He looks pretty respectable on paper.
Connor: You run across a lot of respectable guys who keep wild animals and are friends with killers?
Yokas: Like I said, on paper.

Connor: He might be carrying a vector born parasite.
Yokas: Oh, now you’re just showing off.

{to Connor and Yokas}
Harry: Good cop, bad doc. Get your story straight. Am I gonna die or not?

Levine: My name is Holly Levine. I just came to check on Carlos.
Rossi: Boyfriend?
Levine: Sometimes.

Yokas: So we’re not just searching for a murder suspect?
Connor: No, we’re all trying to stop a biological time bomb.

Powell: What about the dead woman’s passport?
Yokas: Yeah, I asked INS to run a check on that forthwith. That’s cop talk for "I need it yesterday."
Connor: Now who’s showing off?

{to Harry}
Carlos: Jackass, this isn’t just about you.

{to Harry}
Connor: Look, I’m not a cop…I’m talking to you as a doctor. What, are you protecting somebody? Who? The guy who left you behind? Is he worth thousands of lives? ‘Cause that’s what’s at stake here.

{to Harry}
Carlos: You’re gonna rot in hell, you selfish son of a bitch.

Durant: Get this over to the FBI, have them do a metallurgic breakdown, see if we can ID the manufacturer. And Miles…tell them we need it "forthwith."

Powell: How many vials are missing?
Lab Guy: Just one.
Powell: "Just"?
Lab Guy: Poor choice of words.

{to Harry}
Carlos: My luck, I’ll die, you’ll walk out of here.

Carlos: Why’d you do it?
Harry: Rob that store?
Carlos: Desert.
Harry: What do you care?
Carlos: I was a medic in the Marines. Deserting your unit was as low as it got.
Harry: I was in Iraq for 18 months. Survived it somehow. I figured if I went back for a second tour my luck would run out.
Carlos: Guess you should’ve gone after all.
Harry: Looks like.

Connor: How’s the shooter related to you, Harry?
Harry: He’s my brother. My own damn brother.

Harry: Look, I never would’ve gone if I knew somebody was gonna die. Banks said that no one was gonna get hurt.
Carlos: Somebody always gets hurt, man.

{about Harry}
Carlos: Let me sit with him. He’s gonna die with people wearing rubber gloves.

Levine: Carlos is gonna hate the idea of cremation.
Rossi: Let’s not get ahead of ourselves, Holly.
Levine: But he’s got the rash. The disease is progressing…and nobody else has beaten it.

Connor: Once we targeted South Africa, Biocape just jumped up. They’re under investigation for irregularities.
Yokas: Yeah, that’s white collar speak for "felony."

Levine: Dr. McCabe, Carlos has been alone in this world his whole life. Okay? I don’t want him to be alone now.

Carlos: They let you in? I’m dying, right? That’s why you’re here? They said I’m over?
Levine: No, you dope. I wanted to be with you.

Connor: Anything in his apartment with a boat-sounding name on it?
Yokas: Yeah, you mean like a matchbook cover with a clue on it?

Connor: There’s no keys listed here. Everyone has keys.
Yokas: We went through everything.
Connor: What about the pockets of his clothing.
Yokas: Everything. Every item.
Connor: I can think of one item you probably missed. The clothes Banks was wearing when he died.
Yokas: The lion ate his keys.
Connor: Well, he wasn’t gonna undress him first.

ESU Cop: This is gonna be one weird takedown.

Connor: Carlos is doing better.
Yokas: Yeah, I figured he must be doing better. Nobody in there is wearing gloves.

Connor: He’s lucky. Holly too.
Yokas: Must be from living right.
Connor: Well, it could be the crystals Holly brought.

Yokas: How do you do it, Dr. Connor, day in, day out?
Connor: This, coming from a homicide detective?
Yokas: Yeah, but my guys are dead. The suffering’s over. I mean, why not be a GP? It’s gotta be a lot less stress.
Connor: Why aren’t you working traffic?
