Quotes1

  • Lt. Cedric Daniels: What're you doing here at two in the morning?
  • Det. Ellis Carver: Field interviews. Police work.
  • Lt. Cedric Daniels: "Police work." I got a 14-year-old kid in critical but stable condition at University and two witnesses who say one of you princes cold-cocked him with the butt end of a pistol.
  • Det. Thomas 'Herc' Hauk: No sir.
  • Lt. Cedric Daniels: I got his mother over at I.I.D. filing a formal brutality charge, which for Herc will make an even four in the last two years!
  • Det. Thomas 'Herc' Hauk: Unsustained...
  • Lt. Cedric Daniels: But all of 'em true!
  • Det. Thomas 'Herc' Hauk: Lieutenant, we thought that...
  • Lt. Cedric Daniels: I got one less Crown Vic than I had last night, I'm out two Kevlar vests that burned in the car, two hand-held radios, a shotgun and I'm about to lose this idiot here for a week or two of medical! And for WHAT?
  • Det. Ellis Carver: Lieutenant, we thought...
  • Lt. Cedric Daniels: What did you learn when you went into the Terrace at two in the morning to conduct field interviews? What valuable information did we acquire from this situation? I.I.D. is gonna be on all three of you by afternoon. If you don't get a story straight by then, you're gonna have a file thick enough to see the light of a trial board. Now, tell me, who cold-cocked the kid?
  • Det. Roland 'Prez' Pryzbylewski: [after several seconds of silence] Me.
  • Lt. Cedric Daniels: [intensely] Why?
  • Det. Roland 'Prez' Pryzbylewski: He pissed me off.
  • Lt. Cedric Daniels: No, Officer Pryzbylewski, he did NOT piss you off. He made you fear for your safety and that of your fellow officers.
