Quotes[]
Lonnie Jackson: It's not what you own, son... it's what you are. I'm just an old man who deserves to die in the bed he worked to pay for. Do you realize what it's like to wake up one day and everything is gone? That I'm invisible? I've been erased? I've worked my whole life! I bought that house. I had no debt. And this man... this monster... pushes a few buttons and poof! It's over. I'm gone. That Hitchens robbed me of me... he stole my soul!
Dr. Paul Jackson: Do your children know where you are every minute of the day?
Lennie Briscoe: No, but I'd sure tell 'em if I lost my house.
Dr. Paul Jackson: What? There's no way he lost it. He owned it outright. He said he would die there... his grandchildren would die there. The point is that that old piece of crap up in Harlem was like Pop's 'Plymouth Rock.' He'd never sell it.
Lennie Briscoe: The truth is he mortgaged the house. Then he defaulted on the payments. The bank sold it to some Donald Trump wannabe.
