Major Crimes (TV Series)

D.O.A. (2013)

Mary McDonnell: Sharon Raydor

Quotes 

• Captain Sharon Raydor : A man can change his face, he can change his name, but changing your nature is very hard. And changing your fingerprints is next to impossible.

• Captain Sharon Raydor : Hello.

  Watch Commander : Captain, as I explained to your lieutenant, I can't approve the cost of keeping thirty-two officers on the scene.

  Captain Sharon Raydor : Okay, listen to me. You will hold the perimeter as long as Lieutenant Provenza wants you to or, tomorrow, you will be working traffic in Northridge. Do you understand me?

  Watch Commander : Yes, ma'am.

• Jackson Raydor : So he says to me, "How'd you like to get into the thoroughbred business?" He couldn't tell a good bet from his ass.

  Captain Sharon Raydor : Is this the one about the horse who had a heart attack at the starting gate and died?

  Jackson Raydor : [laughs]  Yes. Except usually I get a laugh when I get to that part.

  Captain Sharon Raydor : Oh, I'm sorry.

• Jackson Raydor : Apologies for interfering. I just feel kind of sorry for the kid. Can I get you a blanket? You look cold.

  Captain Sharon Raydor : Maybe it's because you've spent more time with Rusty in the past two days than you've spent with our children in five years.

  Jackson Raydor : Don't start, Sharon. I can't change the past. I can only try to do better.

  Captain Sharon Raydor : Well, maybe part of doing better would be finding an apartment.

  Jackson Raydor : Aye, Captain. Excuse me.

• Russell Taylor : Jack looks much less stressed than the last time I saw him. Getting back on the court appointed list should help give him a fresh start.

  Captain Sharon Raydor : For the hundredth time.

  Russell Taylor : Yeah. Not a terrific husband, I guess, but lots of natural charm.

  Captain Sharon Raydor : None of which he wasted on raising his children; and, oddly enough, charm doesn't pay for college.
