Bull -

2. Bull: “You didn’t lie to a suspect. You lied to a public corporation.” ADA: “It has no effect on the legitimacy of the evidence.” Benny: “It doesn’t say a whole hell of a lot about the integrity of the DA’s office.” Bull: “Kind of hard not to wonder what other rules you’d be willing to break.”

How to Get Away with Murder -
1. Annalise: “This is a law school. Not a daycare.” [It's about time someone said it. These students can be so childish. - Dahne]
2. Frank: “I know you’re telling yourself you need to find out the truth, but just consider the other option. You do nothing ‘cause you’ve been happy - way more than I’ve ever seen. But no one, I mean no one, Bon, deserves to be happy more than you. So if you just want to pretend you never found this out, leave the past in the past, know I fully support that.”
3. Michaela: “You think I’m a heartless bitch. I understand why. But your heart...your heart is big and kind and that’s why I fell for you.” Asher: “Stop. Look, I have a good thing going with the DA. Alright, I’m finally getting my life back on track and now you want me to risk that all for you and Annalise?” Michaela: “Just take me and Annalise out of the equation. If Nate was the one coming to you right now, you’d do this for him.” [It was hard to choose thise quote because I was going back and forth on a few of them. In the end, I picked this one because it reminded me that Asher has some great qualities in a season where not many of them are on display. I also liked his concern over Bonnie. -Dahne]

1. Maggie: "You're a numbers guy. You know that I can fight this and have what doctors say is a 30% chance of living, or I could keep doing exactly what I'm doing right now and have a 100% chance of loving the time I have left." Gary: "Wow... I don't want you to take this the wrong way, but I really wish you hadn't met me."
2. Heller: "Is there a history of depression in your family?" Rome: "There's a history of 'we don't talk about that' in my family."
3. Eddie: "Katherine has done nothing but support me, and I want to support her." Gary: "And you think getting her to this second-grade play is going to make up for years of alcoholism and infidelity? You might want to check your math on that." (DarkUFO)

2. Director Ochoa: “The Special Prosecutor’s looking for blood from Moseley, Hetty, and everyone else involved. And don’t think for for a minute that he’s gonna limit his investigation to Mexico. He’s gonna dig deep into all of you and in your case, Agent Callen, your associations with an ATF agent who is currently under investigation, Anna Kolcheck, and rogue CIA Officer Joelle Taylor aren’t gonna help any.” Callen: “Any advice?” Director: “You might want to consider celibacy until this is over.”
3. Kenzi: “It is cake. It is not wine. You don’t spit it out.” Deeks: “You do if your blood sugar’s about to redline. Are you kidding me? I’m gonna spend the rest of the day sweating out Skittles. I’m done.” (Dahne)
