Random Facts:

Where did the name "Martha's Vineyard" come from?
English explorer Bartholomew Gosnold is credited with giving Martha's Vineyard its name. When he visited this area in 1602, he had two journalists on board his ship who documented the voyage. When Gosnold returned to England, a book was published describing the voyage and the name "Martha's Vineyard" was given to this island. Martha was the name of Gosnold's mother- in-law, who supposedly helped finance the voyage, and also the name of his infant daughter. At the time of the voyage, and still today, wild grapevines grow throughout the island.

Quotes:

Woody: This one of those shrink things?  You don’t talk until I do?

Lu: Look Woody.  You stood right in that doorway and said you wanted to talk but if you’re not going to look at some of this stuff, dig a little bit deeper you’re wasting both our times.
Woody: I’ve gotta go.
Lu: Yeah I’m shocked.

Woody: What the hell one working mate to another.  The guy was stabbed with an ice pick.

Woody: You watching me now?
Lu: Paranoid?  I was observing the suspect.  I’ve been assigned.
Woody: He didn’t kill anyone.
Lu: How do you know?
Woody: I’m a detective. I know.
Lu: Well I think there might be something to it.
Woody: Based on what?  You’re vast two years experience.
Lu: Instinct.  And I was a detective long before I was a psychologist.

Nigel: Holy Tasmanian terror!

Garret: We're all dispensable Bug. Dispensable, disposable and expendable.

Jordan: One minute your spending the weekend in bed eating moo-shu pork and then the next...
(eyes wide-surprised look from Nigel)

Pollack: By the way what's up with your detective friend? He tried to screw me on a story today.  Don't think I'm a fact checker?
Jordan: Just ignore him.  He's got issues.
Pollack: So I wanted to ask you something.
Jordan: Why are we whispering?
Pollack: Well I'm not sure if we're public.
Jordan: You can use your normal voice if you want.

Pollack: I get it I'm crowding you.  Moving to fast.
Jordan: No.

Nigel: It's a little early for the ADA isn't it?
Jeffery: Eh... I need to know which one of them died first.
Jordan: What difference does it make?  We need to find the killer.
Jeffery: Oh...ah...They killed each other.

Jeffery: You could paper a room with all the restraining orders.

Woody: If there's one thing I'm pretty sure of it's that I'm not going to end up watching you psycho-analysis anyone.
Lu: Wow.  Now I get it.  This isn't about evidence.  This is about you being right and me being wrong.

Woody: You here to rub this in my face?  You were right and I was wrong.
Lu: Woody it's not about right or wrong.

Woody: ...Just because you flipped through a couple issues of Psychology Today.
Lu: Woody you are being naive.

Woody: That was the morgue.  They found a clue.  A real clue.  Don't wait by the phone.

Nigel: Why are you so reluctant to believe these two killed each other.  You've seen this a hundred times Jordan.  It's a fact.  Marriage is the most common risk factor in murder.

Jordan: Oh Brandau.  So glad to see you here.
Jeffery: I went by the morgue and they said you were here.  Correct me if I'm wrong but don't you check the bodies to see which one died first.

Nigel: If they killed each other why is the DA's office interested in them at all?
Jordan: Yah?  What's the hurry.  You know I could stall time of death for months.
Nigel: Um huh.
Jeffery: Alright.  Alright alright.  We've got a pool.
Jordan: A what?
Jeffery: Which on would actually kill the other one first, when, how.
Jordan: You've got money on them.
Jeffery: Well...yeah.
Nigel: What's your money on?
Jeffery: This month.  This year.  Blunt force trauma.
Nigel: Ohh three out of four.
Jeffery: Yeah!
Nigel: Husband or wife?
Jeffery: He kills her.
Nigel: Oh can I get in on this?

Jordan: Shut up.  You are a ghoul.
Jeffery: Yeah a ghoul who'll be $2500 richer if she died first.

Woody: You hear to tell me you were right again.
Lu: Um-um.  There's nothing to gloat about.

Garret: It's mitochondrial.
Woody: English please!

Nigel: This isn't like you.  You go with the evidence.

Nigel: Look I know why you don't want this to be true.
Jordan: What are you talking about?
Nigel: You're Aussie friend.

Jordan: Love turns to hate.  Why is that?

Pollack: You're not a very good liar Cavanaugh.

Jordan: No honestly.
Pollack: I'm a big boy.  If you don't want to do this just say so.

Nigel: A little early in the relationship to be sabotaging yourself isn't it?

Jeffery: Ms. Lebowski.
Lily: Jeffery.  So nice to see you.
Jeffery: Well I was hoping you could help me actually.
Lily: Oh?
Jeffery: Dr. Cavanaugh is working on a case. Um...it's a couple that died...ugh...
Lily: The Doyle's.
Jeffery: Yeah that's it.  Well my assistant took a message that the time of death has been established and I was hoping that you could get that information for me.
Lily: Let me see if I can find Dr. Cavanaugh.
Jeffery: Well see...I was actually...um...hoping to not have to deal with Dr. Cavanaugh again.  She's a little...you know...
Lily: Good at her job?
Jeffery: Actually I was going to say frightening.
Jordan: I'm going to assume that you're not talking about me.

Jordan: They tried to save each other.
Nigel: True love after all.

Woody: It was you.  You were the one abusing him.
Lu: Detective put him down.
Woody: You sick sick...
Lu: PUT HIM DOWN!

Woody: You were going to let him take the fall for murder.
Lu: WOODY!

Lu: Detective Hoyt.
Woody: Are you going to admit it?
Lu: Admit what?
Woody: That I was right and you were wrong.
Lu: How do you figure.
Woody: Well Brain Heely didn't not kill anyone and Stalkem was not abusing him.
Lu: It's that important to be right?
Woody: I'm just saying.
Lu: How about we call this one a draw.  I'm just saying.

Woody: It's made me a better cop.
Lu: It's not really about being a better cop. That same stuff you don't want to look at and deal with.  It gets in the way of other things.  Your life for instance.

Jordan: Whenever I start to get close to someone this little voice starts screaming in my head run fast.  Crazy.  Messed up.  Cuckoo.  I wish I could promise you it won't happen again, but it probably will.

Pollack: I knew you were crazy, messed up, cuckoo the moment I laid eyes on you.
