Quotes 

• Carl Alagretti : [after talking to Danny's cousin Nick about Danny]  I says we think he's a rat, and we think we should fuckin' clip him. He says if you think he's a rat, then you should clip him. But if you do, you better be sure he's a rat. Because the people that like him, they're good people.

• Carl Alagretti : Dave's been calling all over town about you. Why do you always have to shoot off your mouth, Ciello? I heard he's talkin' about some cop who's squealin' to the Chase Commission.

  Daniel Ciello : Carl, let's not sit so close to the TV set. I can't get any kind of recording here.

  Carl Alagretti : Man, that's not funny.

  Daniel Ciello : Listen, you oughta think about comin' over, Carl. Lotta cops are doin' it. You see that waitress over there? The one with no tits? She's been wearin' a wire for six months. She's got a transmitter stuffed right up her pussy.

• Dave DeBennedeto : I understand you're looking to do us a favor here. I want you to know I get nervous when people try to do me favors.

  Daniel Ciello : I got something I'd like to earn but it has to be right away.

  Carl Alagretti : So, what is it, Danny?

  Daniel Ciello : You remember Martinez? You bonded him. He says he paid you back. He's waiting for trial on Rikers. He says he's got a tape on you where you admit that he paid you. Now you're squeezing him. If you don't stop, he's gonna play the tape, ok? That's a felony.

  Dave DeBennedeto : Now let me tell you something. He's a rat fuck and a punk. He ain't got the heart to wear a wire on me. You know what I do I catch him wearing a wire? I stick it up his fuckin' ass and I pull it out his mouth. Nobody, nobody wears a wire around me. I can smell them.

  Carl Alagretti : It's God's truth, Danny. I never seen nothing like it.

  Daniel Ciello : You know what, Dave? You're an asshole. I don't know how you got where you got. You think I'm some kinda rat or something? We know the same people, you understand what I'm saying? You ain't half as tough as you think you are. Martinez made you, you fat fuck.

  Dave DeBennedeto : Hey, fuck. Nobody talks to me like that. Not even my friends.
