McCoy wants the murderer - the girl's father - to be punished for his crime, but Ross fears that if the father is locked up, the girl will be left to the mercy of her Egyptian relatives, all of whom feel that circumcision is an important rite of passage for young girls. |

Quotes
- Lennie Briscoe: Who's she, the new community affairs liaison?
- Anita Van Buren: No. What do you have?
- Rey Curtis: Come on, L.T. What's up?
- Anita Van Buren: Better you hear it from me. She's my lawyer. I was up for captain. One Police Plaza passed me over.
- Lennie Briscoe: You're suing the department?
- Anita Van Buren: Title seven--they promoted a white woman with the same score on the exam. I have the seniority.
- Lennie Briscoe: I'm sorry we asked.
- Mr. Tobak: This is an outrage. Dr. Nasser is not some peasant fleeing Cuba with a St. Christopher medal and two goats.
- Anita Van Buren: I'm sure he's a respected member of the medical community in Egypt, but he'll have to be detained until his visa status is cleared up.
- Mr. Tobak: Are you suddenly a federal official, Lieutenant?
- Anita Van Buren: The INS is on their way over, you can discuss Dr. Nasser's release with them.
- Jamie Ross: Mr. Tovak finally came through. Dr. Nassar's resume. Turns out he's an OB/GYN.
- Jack McCoy: That's a few organs south of cardiology. Impressive. University of Cairo, Royal Academy of Medicine--a six-week seminar at Lenox Hill in '95--new laser techniques in the removal of uterine fibroids.
- Jamie Ross: Hard to believe the victim had uterine fibroids.
- Jack McCoy: I wonder why Dr. Nassar lied to us.
- Jack McCoy: Who's her judge?
- Adam Schiff: O'Hara.
- Jack McCoy: The one who gave those two kids back to their crackhead mother?
- Adam Schiff: Who later beat one of them to death. Yes, that's O'Hara.
