Not for Nothing (2008)

Robin Weigert: Lt. Karen Davis

Quotes 

• Captain Tidwell : [Henry is threatening to shoot himself]  Pal, hey, let's not get crazy here. She is your *first* wife. Put my gun back in the drawer.

  Detective Henry Villanon : I love her. I've always loved her.

  Lt. Karen Davis : Henry, the desk you're sitting at, it used to be mine.

  Captain Tidwell : *That's* how I know you.

  Lt. Karen Davis : This extremely professional and sensitive individual, who equates women with viral infections, took a job I worked my entire life for. That hurt, probably about as much as you're hurting now.

  Detective Henry Villanon : You have no idea how much I hurt!

  Captain Tidwell : I do. I've been there. Standing on the Brooklyn Bridge, wondering what it's all about after coming home and finding most of your life has left for Jersey. I know that pain. But I also know something that dulls it: Tullamore Dew, the Afghan Wigs, and many, many, many strippers.

  Lt. Karen Davis : Captain?

  Captain Tidwell : We're taking a sidebar, Henry.

  Lt. Karen Davis : [they step away]  His wife is a stripper.

  Captain Tidwell : He went with a stripper for his *first* wife?
