- Mooney: "This is some team spirit technique Vincent, special super duper agent in charge Preecher assigned us to that warehouse take down. I‘d wanna know where it volunteered us to get left out."
- Mooney: "Federal tax dollars at work. Disjoint a homicide investigation to put us in some F.B.I. pep rally."
- Vincent: "Coffee Mike?"
Mooney: "That‘s another item for my to-do list. Bring in Uban"
- Flynn: "I want that homicide to go cold on Mooney."
- Trout: "This warehouse take down... it ah jumps off from Mike & mine‘s old precinct"
Flynn: "Yeah, we’re going to head over there in like 45 minutes."
Mooney: "When were him & me going to be informed?"
Preecher: "We maintain operational secrecy as long as we can Detective Mooney."
Mooney: "Cause God knows who we’d sell the information to."
Flynn: "Take it easy Mooney."
- Preecher: "I know this is a new way of working for you Detective Mooney."
Mooney: "What me & my partner are waiting for is when the lids come off special agent in charge Preecher, so simple minds like us can do our jobs.... But I guess that isn‘t just now."
Flynn: "Don‘t hold your breaths."
- Terry: "Why don‘t you go make yourself some breakfast?"
Chris: "I had a bagel on the way over."
Terry: "You know how I bet I could get you to start making yourself a big plate of scrambled eggs & bacon?"
Chris: "How‘s that?"
Terry: "Tell you not to eat."
- Chris to Terry: "Don‘t piss in my ear & then tell me it‘s raining."
- Chris: "I’m asking you to please stop talking about Vicky. Whatever your part was I accept it okay?"
Terry: "In other words... you forgive me?"
Chris: "I‘m sure you had a real good reason."
- Terry (to himself): "So you don‘t forgive me huh?"
- Swenson: "Good for you Mike making this thing work."
Mike: "What thing?"
Swenson: "The task force thing, you & Trout being loaned out."
Mike: "This looks to you like it‘s working?"
Swenson: "Surface impression, first impression"
Mike: "Don’t trust first impressions and don‘t judge a book by it‘s cover."
- Trout: "This is not an operation you need to be a part of Brigid."
Brigid: "It’s not your decision to make. Stop ordering me around like I’m your niece"
Trout: "Could you at least ask for a fall back position"
Brigid: "No Vincent , I‘m not going to take a fall back position. I‘m going to do the job I was assigned. Now you get that through your thick head and don‘t open your mouth to me about it again ."
- Flynn: "Now be a good time, me apologizing Sarah, tone I took on your memo request?"
Sarah: "Yeah, now‘s fine"
Flynn: "Alligator‘s running around in my head that night."
Sarah: "This far north?"
Flynn: "Yeah, they come up thru the sewers"
Sarah: "When will you be turning in your equipment inventory Jimmy?"
Flynn: "Even as we speak I’m pull all that together."
- Teddy to Preecher: "You get the feeling that there aren‘t too many shifts Mooney‘s not pissed off?"
- Preecher: "Jimmy Flynn wants to hold Terry Maddock accountable for all his own lost childhood illusions."
- Teddy: "When I was a child I use to talk like a child, think like a child, reason like a child but when I became a man I put aside all childish ways."
Preecher: "Oh, write that up and put it in Jimmy’s inbox. Sign it anonymous."
- Terry to Jimmy: "Am I wearing an invisible dress today, is that it? People think they can disrespect me."
- Terry: "Jimmy, I told you there’s three guys going into that warehouse tonight instead of two. Then you run your little play about the Russian bouncer and now we’re going to go our separate ways. Later on we’re going to find out who‘s the organ grinder and who‘s the grinding monkey."
- Chris: "What are you smoking crack?"
Rizutto: "You wanna test my piss to find out?"
- Corelli: "You wanna be a thrill seeker huh? Be our guest."
Chris: "Corelli, the only thrill I‘m going to have is making sure you & Scooter over here don’t get your heads stuck up each others asses calling and tell me it‘s dark."
Rizutto: "I may need your Bic on the way over"
Chris: "Rizutto, you light that pipe you gotta learn how to smoke rolling down the sidewalk."
- Sarah: "Mind if I ask how we were tipped off to this?"
Flynn: "An informant... of mine."
Sarah: "I‘ve never worked an informant."
Flynn: "It‘s a million laughs."
Sarah: "Must feel sometimes like your navigating with out a compass?"
Flynn: "Yes maam."
- Flynn: "Don‘t let New York confuse you Sarah, it‘s exactly like where ever you grew except instead of five or six neighborhoods there‘s twenty thousand."
- Terry: "I don‘t like this guy."
Mogilevich: "Hey it‘s Mitya."
Terry: "I don‘t care what his name is I don‘t like him."
Mogilevich: "Terry you seen him with me five different times."
Terry: "What is he some kind of mute."
Mogilevich: "No, no he‘s no a mute, I tell him don’t bother you, only why he doesn‘t talk."
- Terry: "From now on you can buy those from me."
Mogilevich: "No more Italians?"
Terry: "No."
Mogilevich: "Sure Terry as long as you got consistent access"
Terry: "And ah, what happens if I don‘t?"
Mogilevich: "Well I guess I got a problem"
- Mogilevich: "The Italians I guess out of the picture?"
Terry: "The Italians are going to be retired...(spitting)... Don‘t ask me about the Italians anymore okay?"
Mogilevich: "Okay good."
- Mooney to Chris: "You got a gun? You tell me no and I find it I‘ll beat you good."
- Flynn: "So that‘s what we do now Sarah, first we make a big mess and we leave it for other people to clean up. We head back to our staging area, put on our little red caps on with the elastic straps on it..."
Day: "Will you shut up. Will you shut up."
Flynn: "Sorry."
- Mooney: "That‘s as clean a shot as you‘ll ever see or hear about"
I.A.B. Officer: "Well I wasn‘t there, but the way it came over the radio sounded good."
Mooney: "Something different , the village you were raised, between clean and good?"
- Terry Maddock: "I decided, I decided, I decided when a kid in my crew needs to be taught a lesson and I decided 27 beeps ain‘t enough... 27 beeps ain‘t enough, so come beep me again. Come on, come on Jimmy, come on pal beep me again."
- Flynn to Sarah: "Why would my guy put himself at that kind of risk is what Preecher’s going to ask when I go scurrying in like a little gerbil asking him to okay getting the kid away from the NYPD. Why would your informant do that? But what he’s thinking and not asking is when’s the last time you had actually had a vague idea of what this guys up to Jimmy and I was wondering that myself when I came back to the car and I apologize for being inconsiderate."
- Mooney: "My names Mooney"
Corelli: "What do I care?"
Mooney: "I don‘t know, maybe like getting the license of the car that hit you."
- Mooney: "Was this warehouse take down ah... you know, to finance some rehab time for your pal?"
Corelli: "It was... what it was, I‘m a working stiff just like you."
Mooney: "Then help me do my job."
Corelli: "The right offer... I‘ll give you the no good punks that turned by boy to drugs."
Mooney: "Good, you give up your dead pals crack dealer and maybe I‘ll get you about 45 minutes off your sentence. Whoever was going to buy those green cards, gimme that, then you give me so lumber in my hands, I can go to bat for you to the D.A. This way him dying is not meaning less, so how it makes it possible for you to go on in a better way."
- Flynn: "Whatever’s going on, we have to take those cases away from the NYPD, because their going to help themselves by giving up Terry Maddock. Everything we’ve done... goes out the window."
Preecher: "That’s a theft of Federal property you can rationalize taking the cases. Whether Mooney buys the story is another question."
- Brigid to Trout: "I you wanna to come over Vincent, you know afterward... please do."
- Flynn: "Where the hell you been?"
Maddock: "Is that you beeping me all those times on that beeper that you gave me that only you can beep me on?"
Flynn: "Anyways I‘m busy know Terry, we had to clip one of those guys at the warehouse job."
Maddock: "Who, what‘s the name Flynn, who got clipped one of the daygos?"
Flynn: "Weren’t they all that descent?"
Maddock: "Hey I asked you a question, now just give me the name all right."
Flynn: "Yeah, hey pal , I look at your notebook a second? Thanks. It‘s right here Terry... Rizullo"
Maddock: "Got clipped?"
Fynn: "Bobby Rizullo"
Maddock: "Okay, listen there was another one out there. His name was Chris Scott"
Flynn: "What part of Italy are the Scott’s from Terry?"
Maddock: "Dublin Jimmy, by way of Red Hook."
Flynn: "Wait a second Terry, you put one of your own out on the street to take a collar?"
Maddock: "For reasons to complicated, someone like yourself would understand it or understand the complications of authority."
Flynn: "Reasons known only to organ grinders?"
Maddock: "What was that?"
Flynn: "To organ grinders not the dancing monkeys right Terry?"
Maddock: "Listen to me you little smart assed punk, that kid needed to be taught a lesson and I just taught it to him the same way I‘d teach it to you."
Flynn: "You know Terry, maybe you should open the bar back up & make it decent, like it was twenty years ago."
Maddock: "I ran my bar then, like I run my business now and I had just as much going on in the street. The only difference is that I use to let you come in and shine shoes. So you thought I was a great guy huh?"
Flynn: "No, Terry you open the bar back up and you make it right. Instead of making it like some private clubhouse-putting people out on the street to get collared you prick."
Maddock: "Hey Jimmy you do like I tell you, you understand me? Exactly like I say then you can go outside and start making monkey sounds... eeeee oooo... with that little monkey smile you got, stick out your monkey hand and maybe a stranger will give you a nickel. You do like your told, out on the street by tomorrow. That‘s it."
- Mooney to Chris: "You stand a beating right? I’m not losing my judgment late in my career, cause I’d beat your balls off if I thought I could move you and the answer is yes I could but your entitle to your opinion."
- Mooney: "I like this, I approve of this, wherever it is you live, you could be calling signals from bed."
Preecher: "What‘s your grievance Detective Mooney... at just this present moment?"
Mooney: "I have a concern about the skells from the warehouse who just got lifted out of the city system"
Preecher: "US Attorney is going to prosecute."
Mooney: "Prosecute it my concern evaporates, on the other hand if those skells should suddenly go poof and disappear then my concern becomes a grievance because then what my partner had to do on that street tonight, what he had to do to himself becomes a joke."
Preecher: "You have my word I won’t let that happen... but you have to understand other factors are in play."
Mooney: "Here we go."
Preecher: "What I mean by that Detective Mooney is that at any given moment the full pattern of things may not be clear."
Mooney: "That would be what your word is for?"
Preecher: "That would be what my word is for."
Mooney: "Cause I don‘t pretend to see the full picture right now, special agent in charge Preecher, but the time will come, I figure I will have seen enough to form an opinion then I'm going to remember that we had this conversation."
Preecher: (nodding) "Good morning."
Mooney: "Good morning, I'm going to go now get Trout.."
Preecher: "Tell him, good work."
- Mooney: "Your good with the rat squad."
Trout: "Good."
Mooney: "It‘s all going to be all right."
Trout: "Thanks Mike."
Mooney: "It don‘t make it any easier."
Trout: "It‘s just watching life go you know?"
Mooney: "Yeah."
- Trout: "I hear it‘s a Federal beef now, think the Bureau took the case?"
Mooney: "With a 25 percent chance Vincent at least, that it‘s in the interest of justice."
- Howard Klein: "Would you like some orange juice?"
Mooney: "What‘s that cost, about four and a half bucks?"
Howard Klein: "It would be my pleasure."
Mooney: "The concept would sour my stomach."
- Mooney to Howard Klein: "Detective Trout had to take a life today... and I think you had something to do with it. So we’re going to come back on you Howard, hard."
