- Alan Shore: I can't deny this one scared me, Denny. As illegal as her actions were, I would have been devastated had she gone to jail.
- Denny Crane: And yet, as justified as you say she was, you're telling me you're still against the death penalty?
- Alan Shore: Absolutely.
- Denny Crane: Doesn't make any sense.
- Alan Shore: Makes perfect sense.
- Denny Crane: It's okay for her to execute him, but if the government does it for her...
- Alan Shore: - That would be wrong.
- Denny Crane: Leave it to you liberals to come up with research that says it's okay to be for revenge, and against the death penalty.
- Alan Shore: It's a lot like being for the death penalty, and yet, pro-life.
- Denny Crane: You wanna go there? I can go there.
- Alan Shore: You started it.
- Denny Crane: I didn't start it. I'm just saying that you are a hypocrite.
- Alan Shore: [laughs] No I'm not.
- Denny Crane: Yes, you are! You come up with these studies - and another thing about you Democrats, you all believe in science!
- Alan Shore: You should remember that little gem for your testimony.
- Denny Crane: I will. Don't you worry.
- [sighs]
- Denny Crane: Would you defend me? Since I'm a witness, I'll need a lawyer to defend me, would you defend me?
- Alan Shore: I'll defend you Denny.
- Denny Crane: Thank you.
- Denny Crane: Well you're out there, trying these murder cases, and I'm in my office, twiddling my thumbs, being rejected by fatties. I am not over. I'm sick of people thinking I'm over.
- Alan Shore: I know you're not over. As far as I'm concerned, Denny, you've never been more now.
