Quotes
- Yokas (to Bosco): You're still smirking.
- Bosco: I am?
- Yokas: Yeah, it's your "getting some" smirk.
- Yokas: When you're responding to a 10-13, you know it's only going to take a few seconds to get there, but when you're the one that's calling for help, it feels like forever.
- Davis (about Bosco): What's with him?
- Yokas: I don't know. He's got this new girlfriend. I think it's starting to melt his brain.
- Bosco: What the hell's this guy's problem?
- Yokas: It's a red light! What the hell is your problem?
- Yokas (to Cruz): You make me sick.
- Cruz: I am the Anti-Crime sergeant. We lock people up. That is our job.
- Yokas: Yeah. Yeah, I've seen you do your job up close. It's very impressive.
- Cruz (to Yokas): You don't walk away from me.
- Yokas: You're not my sergeant.
- Cruz: I say anything about being a sergeant?
- Bosco: All right, you know what? Let me talk to her, Sarge.
- Cruz (to Bosco) Why don't you watch the door.
- Yokas (laughing) What? Are you going to beat me up now?
- Davis (to Sully): I was always pretty happy riding with you. Learning from you, but, uh, I don't know you anymore, man. I tried to help you. I tried to get you to let me in, and you bit me for it, and it's cool. I understand. I understand... I know you've been through the worst kind of hell, but you can't just... Sul, I can't help you if you won't let me. But at the same time, I'm not just going to stand around and just watch you go down. I can't do it. I can't. I tried. I'm sorry, I can't. So, um, I got to move on. And it's not about being more than the bag. It's not. It's about getting away from you.
- Yokas (to Bosco): Nobody should say anything about your little Anti-Crime girlfriend (pauses) Oh, my God.
- Bosco: What? What?
- Yokas: Oh, my God. She's the girlfriend.
- Bosco: No.
- Yokas: You're lying.
- Bosco: I wouldn't lie.
- Yokas: You already lied.
- Sully (to Davis): Look, I, uh, understand you wanting to wash your hands of me. I don't blame you. But, uh, you can't do that right now... because I need your help.
