“I’ve been thinking about this for a while,” Jack McCoy says in Thursday's episode. “It’s time. It just is.”, the actor behind Manhattan District Attorney Jack McCoy said farewell to the legal procedural on Thursday's episode. Waterston first came aboard the series during its fifth season in 1994, serving as the executive assistant district attorney for the majority of his time on the show. Jack became the assistant district attorney after season 17 and finally became the D.A.
From there, Jack takes over the case, calling the mayor’s son as a witness. After entering a suspicious text message between Jordan and Veronica into evidence, Jack addresses the jury with a passionate speech. “The defendant is one of the richest men in the world,” he says. “He donates billions of dollars to various charities across the globe. He’s close friends with foreign dignitaries, movie stars, the mayor of New York. By all accounts, he is a decent person. Most of the time.
The jury ultimately finds Kelton guilty, thus winning Jack the case. However, after the verdict, he tells Nolan that he’s tendered his resignation and pours a drink. “I’ve been thinking about this for a while,” he says. “It’s time. It just is.”
