Tyne Daly: Maxine Gray

Quotes 

• Mr. Kovac : [to Maxine]  My daughter's fine. Leave her alone.

  Maxine Gray : Children who are fine do not swallow handfuls of narcotics nor do they look as if they're about to pass out because they're not sure how to spell the word "exegesis" in my personal experience.

• Maxine Gray : [to Sean about Alice-Jane]  We cannot send her back to that man.

  Sean Potter : I told you, I've been through the wringer with this guy. There's nothing we can point to. Making your child learn to spell every word in the dictionaries is not illegal. Making her wear gray flannel is not illegal.

  Maxine Gray : It's psychological abuse.

  Sean Potter : But it's not illegal.
