Robert Goren: Are you a fan, or are these up here to convince your patients they have eye problems?
Thomas Dysart: I put them up to invite ridiculous questions.

Alexandra Eames: They drove around for half an hour and then went back to Garcia House.
Robert Goren: They let one of them out. He had to go to the bathroom, so they let him take a pee off the pier.
James Deakins: Off the pier!? That's compassion!

Thomas Dysart: What the hell do you think you're doing?!
Alexandra Eames: I'd ask you the same thing, but the answer would probably make my hair stand on end.

Robert Goren: The story is that van Gogh gave his ear to a prostitute as a token of love. But who knows what he was really thinking?

Lupe Garcia: It's a wonderful painting. So full of hope.
Robert Goren: Well, it certainly is, umm... full of something.

Robert Goren: I know it's hard to stay on your meds. It's like your head is wrapped in a wet blanket. But if you go off them, well, that's when the trouble starts.

Ron Carver: Do you take art therapy classes?
Emily LeCroix: Oh, yes. I went last Saturday.
Robert Goren: What do you do in these classes?
Emily LeCroix: We painted an office.

Ron Carver: I won't go near a grand jury if your only evidence is the ramblings of a lone deranged individual.
Robert Goren: How 'bout the ramblings of ten deranged individuals?

Background information and notes[]

  • In this episode we learn that Detective Robert Goren mother, Frances, began to suffer from schizophrenia at the age of 32.
  • Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine which deals with the diseases and surgery of the visual pathways, including the eye, brain, and areas surrounding the eye, such as the lacrimal system and eyelids. By convention the term ophthalmologist is more restricted and implies a medically trained surgical specialist. Since ophthalmologists perform operations on eyes, they are generally categorized as surgeons.
  • The next episode, "Probability", also deals with a health care scheme with homeless victims.
