- Quotes
Willard Tappan: You know, they're talking about privatizing the park. A subway token to enter or $30 a year. Trump thinks he can run it at a profit.
Jack McCoy: That's fascinating. We're here to...
Willard Tappan: You're here because you have a problem. I'm talking to you because I have a problem.
Jack McCoy: We'll prove that you hid that money, Mr. Tappan. That'll prolong your study of institutional dining.
Willard Tappan: Yes, that's my problem. Meanwhile, Mr. Curren, your murderer, will go free.
Jack McCoy: If you hadn't stolen his money, that murder would never have taken place.
Willard Tappan: I concede your point. If things were different, they wouldn't be the same. Look, I know that you've been asking about a conversation I may have had with Mr. Curren, a conversation I may not be able to recall.
Jack McCoy: I saw your testimony to the House Banking Committee. You couldn't seem to recall the answers to more than 200 questions.
Willard Tappan: My memory is dreadful. Especially when I'm anxious about the future.
Jack McCoy: What do you want?
Willard Tappan: No prosecution on fraud.
Jack McCoy: We'll take your money.
Willard Tappan: You'll take it anyway.
That something was the hidden assets of a Donald Trump like millionaire who bilked hundreds of investors of their life savings. He got a trip to Club Fed and now he's in a half way house.
The guy who shot the lawyer is played by Jonathan Hogan and he's bitter and angry about the loss of his mother's savings. With that temper and how he feels he's easily manipulated.
And manipulated he is by Michael Zaslow as the recent Club Fed guest. But what happens here does not rise to the level of a crime. All that happened was that he was pointed in a right/wrong direction depending on your point of view.
Zaslow is wonderful in a part that calls for him to be notorious and sleazy and without a conscience at all. But Law And Order was really reaching here. I truly suspect the Appellate Division and if not the Court Of Appeals would reverse all of Sam Waterston's work against Zaslow in a nano-second.
