[Ray and Fraser are in a dumpster looking for evidence]
Ray Vecchio: You know, Fraiser, when I was a little boy, I used to dream of what it would be like to be a police officer. You know, shooting the bad guys, saving the girl. Being knee-deep in day-old chicken heads, looking for tainted meat was never a part of that dream.
Benton Fraser: Check that container there.
Ray: Why? If they wanted to hide something they just wouldn't have dumped it in here.
Fraser: Well, perhaps not this time. But garbage has a history, Ray. It always leaves something behind.
Ray: Yeah, and most if it seems to be on me. You know what really annoys me? Why am I covered in crud and you look like you just got back from a hand laundry?
Fraser: I don't know, I've always been this way.
Ray: [phone rings] Cia. It's Raymondo. [Fraser picks something off of Ray's coat] Ma! No, Ma, I did not forget the lettuce, okay?! [to Fraser] See a head of lettuce anywhere? Uh, Ma, yes I got it. Look, look...no, I gotta go, Fraser's picking lint off me again. Alright. Bye. [to Fraiser] Thanks, but I don't think it's gonna help.
Fraser: It might.
Ray: What is it?
Fraser: Parasites.
Ray: Those were on me?!
Fraser: Yes.
[Ray yells and jumps out of the dumpster]
