014 Season 1 Episode 9 Get Carter

Scene: 1 Looking into Carter

FINCH: I've been looking into our new number. Carter, detective first grade, homicide task force. Single mom, teenage son, served as an army interrogator.

REESE: Passed the bar in '04, gave it up to go back on the force.

FINCH: It's impressive, Mr. Reese.

REESE: Impressive lady. Honest to a fault.

FINCH: Which means she made a lot of enemies, both in the criminal world and in her own department. I've narrowed the list of possible suspects to a little over 300 or so.

REESE: Day in the life of a homicide detective. Any more immediate threats?

FINCH: Hector Alvarez... Indicted for homicide on a case she worked six months ago... Till the charges were dropped. Edward Kovach-- Repeat felon, spouse abuser, whose wife she's taken a keen interest in protecting. And then there's Elias-- Ruthless killer, organized crime boss, who's already taken a shot at her.

REESE: Well, she's a walking target. Gonna have to keep her in sight at all times.

Scene: 2 She got to go

FUSCO: They got me working with Detective Carter, and, uh... I'm starting to hear some things.

CAPTAIN: Yeah? Like what?

FUSCO: Maybe she's not so well-liked by, uh, a certain element.

CAPTAIN: Listen, Lionel... Things are going back to the way they used to be.

FUSCO: Used to be?

CAPTAIN: Thing about organized crime? It was organized. Things worked. Trains ran on time. This new guy... He knows the rules.

FUSCO: What'd she do?

CAPTAIN: Went through the proper back channels... Up the chain of command. Permission granted. It's just got to look... Clean.
FUSCO: "Clean"? You mean like in the line of duty? I'm starting to feel caught in the middle here, captain.

CAPTAIN: I'd keep my distance, if I were you.
