Stephanie Venditto: Dr. Lisa Harris

Quotes 

• Samantha Spade : So, you see... when a bullet goes into the thigh, it can lodge in the fascia. That's the, uh, connective tissue. Mine was a through-and-through, which means the bullet went...

  Dr. Lisa Harris : I know what it is.

  Samantha Spade : Okay. So, to answer your question, getting shot felt like very much like someone had taken a jackhammer to my leg. A burning hot jackhammer. And you're staring at me.

  Dr. Lisa Harris : Samantha... I asked you what it felt like to be shot, and you described, in quite some detail, the physical experience of being wounded. I'm interested in knowing how it felt in other ways.

  Samantha Spade : [trying to joke, as a means of deflection]  Oh. Why didn't you say that?

• Dr. Lisa Harris : Samantha, you were brought here because you were a hostage in a kidnapping, during which you were shot in the leg with your own gun. You were assigned to desk duty, and as soon as you were allowed back on active, you shot and killed two suspects during an investigation.

  Samantha Spade : That was a good shooting.

  Dr. Lisa Harris : Yes, I read the report.

  Samantha Spade : There's a little girl, a violinist, who is missing. I'm sure you've heard. I could help her a lot more if I was out there doing my job.

  Dr. Lisa Harris : Right now, this is part of your job. And as our time is up, I won't keep you.

  [Sam stands to leave] 

  Dr. Lisa Harris : I have you on for Thursday, 8:00 a.m.

  Samantha Spade : I can't do Thursday. But I'll call you.

• Dr. Lisa Harris : You wanted to ask me about Agent Spade?

  Jack Malone : Yeah, I get the impression that she may be resisting you a little.

  Dr. Lisa Harris : She's been resisting me a lot, actually. Having a hard time even getting her in the room.

  Jack Malone : You want me to talk to her?

  Dr. Lisa Harris : No. No, she'll come around.

  Jack Malone : What if she doesn't?

  Dr. Lisa Harris : They all do. Most of them.
