Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "Men are pigs and we should all rot in hell. Unfortunately, that's not my ____."

Answer: jurisdiction

This quote is from his first episode, the premiere of the fifth season, "Second Opinion." He makes this remark to Claire Kincaid.
2. When Mike Logan says, "You can get a ham sandwich indicted," how does McCoy respond?

Answer: "That might be easier. There's meat on a ham sandwich."

This is from the episode "Coma" in season five.
3. Jack McCoy believes that "justice is a byproduct of ____."

Answer: winning

Jack tells Claire, "It's all about winning." She responds, "Last time I checked, I thought it was about justice." He remarks, "That's a byproduct." "Hang-em High" McCoy (as he calls himself) loves to win!
4. "Fortunately, the statute applies only to such trivial offenses as cop killings, torture killings, felony murders, and killing a witness to a crime." Of what is he speaking?

Answer: the death penalty

He is, of course, speaking of the death penalty. In the days of Ben Stone, the death penalty was abolished in New York. As McCoy took the place of Ben Stone, New York reinstituted capital punishment. The death penalty became an issue for the characters on "Law and Order." It still is.
5. What does Jack call the criminal mantra "I didn't do it"?

Answer: the Riker's Island Theme Song

"Good for you! You've learned the Riker's Island Theme Song." This is from the episode "Jeopardy" in season six.
6. Adam has to tell the public that a convicted inmate of several years is innocent. He asks McCoy for advice. Jack says what?

Answer: "Tell them your staff is so good they can even convict an innocent man."

McCoy is not nearly as cynical as Adam. This quote comes from the episode "Trophy" in the sixth season.
7. What was the occupation of McCoy's father?

Answer: cop

He was a cop. McCoy remarks that "I'm a pussycat compared to my old man."
8. Jack McCoy has never faced the ethics board and possible disbarment.

Answer: False

Jack McCoy has been hauled before the ethics committee more than once. He is also held in contempt of court with relative frequency.
9. What religion is Jack McCoy raised?

Answer: Roman Catholic

When the Catholic Church wants an unorthodox "confession" thrown out of court, McCoy opposes the Archdiocese of New York. They tell him, "You're a Catholic." He responds, "Not at work I'm not."
10. What is Jack's preferred mode of transportation?

Answer: motorcycle

Jack owns a motorcycle. He keeps changes of clothes in his office so he doesn't have to ride home in a suit.
