Det. Lipranzer:
How ya doin'? Christmas Present.

[takes out glass which was key piece of evidence that went missing during the trial]

Rusty Sabich:
You're sticking your neck out pretty far on this one, Lip.

Det. Lipranzer:
It was them that f***ed up. Remember when they came around and gathered all the evidence? The glass wasn't there, I took it down to Dickerman. The next day, I get a call. The test is done, I can come pick up my glass. But when I went down there, Molto had signed 'returned to evidence.' I guess they figured I'd put it back. Only, I got no place to put it since it ain't my Goddamned case anymore. So I tossed the thing in my drawer. I figure sooner or later someone's gotta ask me about it. Noone ever did.

Rusty Sabich:
You think I killed her.

Det. Lipranzer:
The lady was bad news.

Rusty Sabich:
So that makes it okay that I killed her.

Det. Lipranzer:
Did ya?

Rusty Sabich:
Oh, pal.

[sighs, tosses glass into the water]
