Melina Kanakaredes: Stella Bonasera

Quotes 

• Stella Bonasera : Did you see anybody go out here late last night?

  Doorman Kevin Dowell : No, I have to stay in the front of the building. God forbid a tenant should have to open their own door.

• Danny Messer : You know, if there are nine rats for every person living in Manhattan, there's gotta be at least five keys per head. Apartment door, car door...

  Stella Bonasera : Lock at the gym. Yeah. Fast-forward.

  Danny Messer : But there are only a few alloys used to make keys. New duplicate keys are all coated in red acrylic now. And that's what these shavings are. A duplicate was used to get in here. Shavings were left behind.

  Stella Bonasera : All right, so it was the last one in. Any other disturbances?

  Danny Messer : Pristine.

  Stella Bonasera : Penrod didn't just have help, it was an inside job.

  Danny Messer : How do you figure?

  Stella Bonasera : Well, you've got four masters, right? Somebody's gotta be *really* close to the Hanovers or the doorman to get one to get it duped.

  Danny Messer : Then I need those masters.

• Stella Bonasera : So, did you get a hit on the master keys?

  Danny Messer : Got all four right here: Mom, Dad, Junior, and the doorman. Found machine marks on one of 'em, it was definitely copied.

  Stella Bonasera : Let me guess, the doorman.

  Danny Messer : Sorry, door number four. The key belonging to Mrs. Hanover.

  Stella Bonasera : [surprised]  What?

  Danny Messer : Mm-hmm. Evidence Collection found it in her bag in her room. Look. Scratches are from the dupe machine. Someone made a copy of this key. The dupe was definitely used to get in the back door the night of the murders.

  Stella Bonasera : I don't get it. How does a monster like Penrod get involved with Mrs. Hanover?

• Stella Bonasera : Hey, we got a blood swipe. Looks like the killer's exit. Maybe entrance, too.

  Danny Messer : I'll process the door and stairs.

  Mac Taylor : Look for anything that isn't from a Hanover or a Penrod.

  Danny Messer : [giving the lock a once-over]  No forced entry.

  Mac Taylor : Pop the lock. Take it apart, see if it was picked. Follow up on the keys. Somebody got in here somehow.

• News Reporter : Detective Taylor, is this like the Dumbo massacre? What about Penrod, is he still at large?

  Stella Bonasera : Davey Penrod? How'd she get that?

  Mac Taylor : New York. You think it, it's news.

• Mac Taylor : Homicide says this is the only show that isn't dark on Mondays, and I see you're the only one in the cast of "Rainbow" that wears blue makeup.

  Stella Bonasera : And your artistic director tells us that you were in a relationship with Michael Hanover, Sr.?

  Renee Rydell : Am I under arrest?

  Mac Taylor : Depends on what you tell us.

  Renee Rydell : Look, all I know is what I hear on the news.

  Mac Taylor : Well, maybe we can help you know more.

  [showing her an evidence photograph] 

  Mac Taylor : See this hair? This was taken from the chair that Mike Hanover was killed in. If we take a DNA sample, will it match your hair?

  Renee Rydell : What do you want me to say? "I was there"? I was there.

  Stella Bonasera : Oh, we know where you were. Your makeup puts you south of his border.

• Mac Taylor : Blonde.

  Stella Bonasera : What color's the wife's hair?

  Mac Taylor : Brunette.

  Stella Bonasera : Maybe Dad had a visitor.

  Mac Taylor : [finding seminal fluid on the chair]  Bob Fosse's life story.

  Stella Bonasera : "All That Jazz."

  Mac Taylor : Semen.

  Stella Bonasera : Old man was a stud.

  Mac Taylor : So, Mom's in the bedroom knocked out on Percocets.

  Stella Bonasera : Yeah, and Dad's in the study with the candlestick. Only one way to put out his fire.

  Mac Taylor : Blow.

  Stella Bonasera : [seeing him thinking]  You think the bimbo's connected?

  Mac Taylor : Yeah, Veneziano's theory of quantum physics; everything's connected. Just have to find out how.

• Stella Bonasera : How's our secret door? Was it picked?

  Danny Messer : No scratches inside the lock. All markings are consistent with key use only.

• Stella Bonasera : I recognize those getaway sticks.

  Mac Taylor : Renee. Junior inherits half a billion and his dad's mistress. Yeah, it's the stuff New York legends are made of.

• Stella Bonasera : Hey, hey, guys, hold up, hold up. Just need a couple of shots of the entry wound.

  Paramedic : Lifesaving measures over evidence, Bonasera.

  Stella Bonasera : Look, what I'm doing may prevent another attempt on his life, okay?

• Stella Bonasera : When was the last time you saw the Hanovers?

  Doorman Kevin Dowell : Uh... when I unloaded their limo, uh, yesterday afternoon. They came back from Florida. The next thing I know, the police are swarming the building.

  Stella Bonasera : Okay, fire code says that there's a back door here. I can't seem to find it.

  Doorman Kevin Dowell : Uh, yeah, it's hidden.

  Stella Bonasera : Why don't you try un-hiding it?
