Mary Beth Lacey
- Christine Cagney-Burton: So tell me, how's the job search going, Mary Beth?
- Mary Beth Lacey: What? Fine, uh, fine, I have some very nice prospects.
- Christine Cagney-Burton: So, I suppose you wouldn't consider being a cop again.
- Mary Beth Lacey: Chris, I've been off the force three years. They can't take me back, you know that.
- Christine Cagney-Burton: You can be a DA's investigator. We've got civilians, just like we've got uniforms; and you'd be doing exactly the same thing that a police detective does, only you'd do it as a civilian.
- Mary Beth Lacey: I'm retired. Nah, naw, it's been too long.
- Christine Cagney-Burton: I just saw you, you're great! Ah, you still can play those people like violins.
- Mary Beth Lacey: I was not - I'm not gonna play Deborah Nelson for you!
- Christine Cagney-Burton: God, I miss this, Mary Beth, come on. Driving around together, you know, throwing out ideas, talking things over.
- Mary Beth Lacey: Bickering.
- Christine Cagney-Burton: Whatever, it works. And I was getting nowhere on this case. And now, look, things are slowly starting to open. Come on, say yes. Come on. Come work with me.
- Mary Beth Lacey: With you?
