Nan's Ghost: Part 2 [12.7]

Jessica: [after exposing the murderer] Vincent Nader's plans for a hotel would have put a stop to your digging. John Sullivan was getting too close to the secret. But Nan? Was it worth that much to you to wipe out the life of such a beautiful, clever young woman?

Superintendent Arthur Joyce: Indeed it was. She was destroying a dream. Here was a chance for me to get out of this grind, to leave Ballynook for good, for us both to get rich beyond our wildest dreams. Nan, she had this ridiculous notion that the treasure should go to Ireland. I couldn't have that!

Shooting in Rome [12.8]

Lucy Hendrix: [after confessing to the murder] Webb was rotten. If I had to do it again, I would. It was perfect. Almost.

Deadly Bidding [12.9]

Giles Havelock: [after Jessica exposes him as the murderer] I worked late last night after the auction writing checks to creditors, as a matter of fact, in anticipation of the fat commission from this. Then I began thinking about Diana's behavior and Felix Wesker, Lawrence Mezznou and the ridiculous price. And then your request for that list of stolen artworks. There was obviously more to it than met the eye. I let myself into the storeroom and examined the canvas. And then I realized it was one of Degas' stretchers. I was contemplating what to do next when the decision was made for me. I watched from the shadows as Angus stole the painting. When he left, I came back in here, grabbed my letter opener and followed him to his studio. Those three generations of tradition, they were a formidable burden, Jessica. It was the only way I could see to keep Greylight Auction Galleries from going under.

Frozen Stiff [12.10]

Susan McGregor: [after confessing to the murder] You know, Mrs. Fletcher, if only Kyle had told me the truth about his past, I'd have forgiven him. We could have started over somewhere else.

Unwilling Witness [12.11]

Annette Rayburn: [after Jessica exposes her as the murderer] I just wanted him to admit it. I just wanted him to admit what he did to my father. But he didn't. He denied it. He, he, he laughed. I saw the letter opener on the desk and suddenly I ... I just, I just wanted him to feel a little bit of what I've been feeling all those years.

Death Goes Double Platinum [12.13]

Sam Desoto: [after Jessica exposes him as the murderer] I've loved Patricia as long as I can remember. But she loved Alex. You know, as long as she was happy, that was okay. But then Aguilar came back into her life. And he started tearing her apart like he did. I was close enough to him and Alex last night. Close enough to hear what he said. Close enough to know what he'd done to her. I wouldn't bear that.

Murder Among Friends [12.16]

Dyan Emery: [after confessing to the murder] Ricki had done so much for me in the past, but this movie, well, I thought I had it. It was a part any actress would kill for.

Something Foul in Flappieville [12.17]

Parker Foreman: [after Jessica exposes him as the murderer] I had to get my hands on that cassette. I tried to bribe the security guard to show me where Darren kept his valuables, but, oh, no. He was way ahead of me. You see, he had played the tape for himself and he was gonna put the squeeze on me, so yes, I did put my hand inside that ridiculous puppet and I slugged him with a flatiron. I got rid of one blackmailer. Unfortunately, not the other.
