BRENDA : Is that right, sergeant?
GABRIEL : Yes.
BRENDA : Now what have we got here? Oh, oh, oh. Isn't this a pretty pencil case?

PROVENZA : What, what?
BRENDA : Mm-hmm. there you go. Case closed.

TAO : Uh, no, chief. I have no idea.
GABRIEL (O.S.) : Chief, chief, chief.
He joins them at the desk.
GABRIEL (CONT'D) : That's your briefcase.
BRENDA : Oh. well, of course it is. Just wanted to see if y'all were paying attention. Heh heh heh! Case closed.
TAO : Nobody closes a case the way she does.
GABRIEL : Mm-hmm.
PROVENZA : Can we go home now, chief?
BRENDA : Not yet.
PROVENZA : But we closed all our cases.
BRENDA : Yes, but that's not all that needs closing around here. What about that drawer over there and that window, that bag, that box, that off-brand notebook computer, those blinds, hmm, hmm, hmm?
Provenza is flabbergasted.
BRENDA (CONT'D) : Now close your mouth, Provenza, unless you want me to close it for you.
Provenza gulps.
BRENDA (CONT'D) : Mm-hmm.
GABRIEL : No wonder they call here the closer.
