Quotes
Capt. Frank Furillo: I've seen this before, don't think you're the only ones. You walked in the wrong doorway and got smacked, you both ought to be dead. Not because you screwed up, and not because you're bad cops, you're not, in fact you're exceptionally good, but it happens. And if you survive, it's never like it was, it's always with you: the what ifs, which one of us failed? The shame, embarrassment, the anger, and most of all, the fear of going back out there.
Officer Andrew Renko: It doesn't faze me, Captain.
Officer Bobby Hill: That's bull! You were scared out of your socks, turn on that light switch?
Officer Andrew Renko: Who's telling who who's scared?
Officer Bobby Hill: Sure I was, I can admit it, Renko, I've got no problem with that.
Officer Andrew Renko: Then admit it! You're SWIMMING in it! Alright, so I'm nervous out there, big deal, you just make me plainclothes and I'll get over that REAL FAST.
