You don't know these people. They're invisible, like ghosts. Well, we have our ways."
Danny said "Like in your town, if you need to find someone you've got a go-to guy, right? Well, in Vegas, I'm that guy."
Zhan said, "You talk big, but you'll never find them."

He played a Video and see the plaintiff Dance and Ed said "Here we go. This is a tape made last night. That is Miss Leboeuf at a tailgate party. Now, I'm not a doctor but seems to me like her back has miraculously been healed and here she is at work. Sure doesn't look like there's any loss of future income there. Doesn't seem to be a whole lot of suffering and pain going on, either.
And if you watch a little while longer you'll see she's still able to have some sex, too. After they drop the case against Mike I want you to notify the DA so he can charge Miss Leboeuf with fraud."
Beresh said, "I'm on it."
Ed said, "And exactly why weren't you on it before?"
Beresh said "Ed, look"

Lee asked Danny "So what's this all about?"
Danny said, "Couldn't say."
Lee said, "I'm sure you know something."
Danny said "No."
Lee said "Little help? I've always liked you. If you want, you and I could be very close friends."
Luis said "Danny. Quin's not copping to anything. I'm gonna take them both to the station.
Sweat them a bit. All right, do me a favor. Have Quin meet me back in here in a minute."
Luis said, "No, I'd rather keep them apart."
Danny said, "Just trust me."
Lee said "You look so serious. You need to loosen up a bit. What's with all the drama? Come on.
You can tell me."
Danny said "Okay. The cops caught this bad-ass named Han. Now, Quin says that she doesn't know him, but she says that you do."
Lee said, "What are you talking about?"

Mike asked, "Mr. D, you didn't?"
Ed said "No. Hey, you know how to save a lawyer from drowning?"
Mike said, "No, I don't."
Ed said, "That's good, Mike."

Mary said "Yeah, well, they were lucky. One of their crazy ideas was to have hot monkey sex on a dining table."
Danny arms when around Rosie and he said "I feel sorry for these first-timers. It's like they come to town and they start having these crazy impulses."
