If you don't want to know the circumstances surrounding Sunday's entry in this slideshow, then don't read any further...
[spoiler]Sunday's quote:
Ep #174 (1967) - Lt. Costa - 'Yeah, I MUST say I'm relieved.'
From "#0174/0175: Robservations 09/21/01: The Missing Body; Peter vs. Laura"
The Robservations references the quote nearly perfectly...
And this is the first time we've quoted John Harkins' Lt. Costa. Previously we've quoted 1897's Garth Blackwood twice and 1970PT's Horace Gladstone twice. And contrary to the sources that say he only played three characters on the show, he actually still has one character left that we might eventually quote, one that he played during Leviathans...
And this is the second quote from this ep. The first (Joe - 'That MUST be kind of rough on ya') was back on April 29th of 2020.

Phoenix Police Department - Lt. Riley is in the office signing off on papers. I thought I'd never see the day, Riley says. So did I, says Lt. Costa (who will eventually play Horace Gladstone in 1970PT)--I must say I'm relieved. So am I, says Riley, I guess we'll have to settle for that. We could have kept at it until we went out of our minds, Costa agrees, but what would be the point? I'm with you there, says Riley, this case is finished, closed, over with, done. We hope, Costa says. I've never been a drinking man, says Riley, but this case very nearly converted me. It did the opposite with me, Costa, when those medical records came from back east, saying that Laura Collins was alive, even though the body in the fire checked out so completely--you want to know something? If it's about Laura Murdoch Collins, no, says Riley. No, this isn't about the REAL Mrs. Collins, Costa says, the one that's alive in Maine. You mean you consider the woman in the morgue to be the unreal Mrs. Collins? asks Riley. Exactly, the other man says, that's what I was going to tell you. Oh, come on, says Riley. It's not my preference, believe you me, says Costa, I can't help it--try as I might, I can't think of that woman in the morgue as identity unknown--I cannot believe that she is not the real Laura Collins, no matter what the proof is. I make it a policy to go as far as the evidence goes, and no further, says Riley. So do I, says Costa, only don't forget, I lived with positive proof there that that WAS Laura Collins, and I cannot let it go.[/spoiler]
