Armansky: The reason you can find no record of her is because her records have been sealed. She's a ward of the state. Mikael Blomkvist: What's that got to do with anything? Armansky: She's had a rough life. Can we please not make it any rougher?

Barbara Covett: Why were you fighting? Perfectly simple question. Steven Connolly: [mumbles] Dunno, miss. Barbara Covett: You don't know. One minute you're an inert lump, the next you're trying to castrate a fellow pupil. Nothing occurred between the...
Michael Bolton: Tom, every week you say you're going to lose your job and you're still here. Tom Smykowski: Not this time. I'll bet I'm the first one laid off! Just the thought of having to go to the state unemployment office and stand in line with t...
