  • Impulse [1.7]

    Bosco: Justice delayed is justice denied. Yokas: Justice? What? Beating on a defenseless prisoner? I don't know if that's what our founding fathers had in mind. Bosco: Oh, so now we only dispense street justice when you think it is appropriate. Yokas: What's that supposed to mean?

  • Alone in a Crowd [1.11]

    That's the problem, see? That's exactly how you lose your mind on this job. There's so much tragedy. Feeling is the first thing that goes. After that, losing the rest is easy. Compassion, empathy, sympathy…It's funny, you can become a much better cop by becoming less of a human being.
    Sully
  • Alone in a Crowd [1.11]

Yokas: The South Pole? Bosco: What? Yokas: Nothing. Bosco: It's probably only nice until you get used to the place. After that, I'm sure you run into some crackhead Eskimo using kids or something. Yokas: Eskimos? In the Himalayas?

  • This Band of Brothers [1.13]

    Davis: I was scared Sully. I was too scared. Sully: We all were. Davis: Not Bosco. He was fearless, running around like a madman. Sully: He is a madman and he's stupid to boot.

And then they all end up with this stupid-ass look on their faces like there's been some kind of terrible mistake.
  • This Band of Brothers [1.13]

    Bosco: We didn't try to hold up a check cashing store with automatic weapons and kill everybody we ran into this afternoon. Yokas: No, but you let a man die when you could have tried to save him.

  • Spring Forward, Fall Back [1.19]

    Willy Townsend stole a communion chalice from a church. He stole it from a man that was tryin' to help him. Then Father Goodwin refuses to give the bastard up. Instead, he goes to find Willy to tell him he's forgiven and give him another chance. And then what does Willy do to this man? Maybe the only person on the face of this Earth that gives a damn about him? He breaks a three dollar bottle of Thunderbird over his head, and then proceeds to stab this gentle, loving man over and over again with what's left of the broken bottle. Father Goodwin is supposed to believe in the redemptive power of God's love, to forgive Willy. That's his place in this world. You and me? Our job is to see to it that Willie never hurts anybody else again. Ever.
    Sully
  • Spring Forward, Fall Back [1.19]

    Doc: You know, every time I think I couldn't possibly have a lower opinion of you, something else pops up and I like you even less. Carlos: You really are a smug bastard, you know that? Doc: I got to say, I'm ashamed to know you.
  • Walking Wounded [2.19]

    Davis: You guys didn't hear about Kim? Faith: What do you mean? What about Kim? Davis: She overdosed. Bosco: No way. Faith: Kim was usin' heroin? Sully: No, she did it on purpose. She tried to kill herself. Her son found her. Faith: That poor little boy found her? Davis: Yeah, she's gonna be okay, though. Bosco: We should call the guys at 55. See if there's anything that we can do for Kim.
  • Walking Wounded [2.19]

    Jimmy: [about Kim] I don't want Joey anywhere near her right now. Catherine: If you're gonna be angry, Jimmy, do your son a favor and don't let him see it. Jimmy: How could she do this to him? He just lost Bobby, who was like a second father. Catherine: He only needed a second father because you haven't been there. Jimmy: What the hell do you know what I've been there for? Catherine: Who baby sits? You were staying on her couch, and you never saw anything was wrong. Jimmy: You see her everyday. Did you? You know, I wasn't supposed to have Joey until Saturday, but I'll trade a few day shifts and I'll pick him up at school tomorrow. Catherine: No. You should keep to the regular schedule. Jimmy: Yeah, well, I'll decide what he needs. Catherine: You know, he doesn't need you riding in on your white horse to save him. He's not a fire. You want to be the hero, but as soon as the crisis is over, when things get boring, that's when you lose interest. It's easy being a hero, what's hard is the

And I know I haven't always been the father that Joey needs. But I want to be and he is my son. He belongs with his father right now.
  • The Relay [3.04]

    Kim: What's this? (opens up envelope and reads the papers in it) What? Jimmy: It wasn't an easy decision for me. Kim: Custody? You want custody? Jimmy: Keep your voice down. Kim: My voice? What is that your plan? To do this in front of your friends so I don't make a scene? Jimmy: It's nothing I planned. First time I saw you all day. Kim: Sole custody?! Jimmy: If something were to happen to me, what would happen to Joey? Kim: He would have his mother. Jimmy: You're still working things out. Kim: Oh, don't patronize me. Jimmy: You tried to kill yourself. Kim: It was an accident. If you think that justifies taking away my son you're out of your mind. (throws the papers in his face) Jimmy: There's other copies.

  • He Said, She Said [3.06]

    Faith: This is bad. Bosco: What makes this different, Faith?! Women cry rape if they're bumped too hard in the subway. How's anybody supposed to take it seriously? Faith: Because we're supposed to figure out the difference! That's our job! What if we left a kid in a car with a rapist? Bosco: That did not happen, Faith. You hearin' me? I did not do that.

'Cause I gotta say, you had the chance. ... Look, is all this happening because your embarrassed to tell your mom that you had sex with him? Shaquana... It is time to tell the truth. It really wasn't rape, was it? ... Was it? Shaquana: You can't make me lie. He raped me. Faith: Okay, so after we stopped you... Shaquana: Not after, it started before. He put his stinkin' thing in my... in my... and then you stopped us. Faith: Well, then why didn't you scream? Why didn't you say anything to us? Shaquana: I don't know. I was freakin', it was like I couldn't talk, my brain wasn't workin' right. I was watching myself do this stuff but I couldn't feel anything.

Mrs. Golden: It was outta hand when he raped my little girl. Faith: I know that, but it has got to stop somewhere. Mrs. Golden: You could've helped her. Faith: You'll never know how much I wish that I could have that moment back. I have a daughter, too. And I probably would've done the same thing. We have an eyewitness who saw you shoot him, and put the gun in your bag and walk away. It's still in there, isn't it? It's very important that you tell me what happened, because it may be the only chance I have at helping you. Mrs. Golden: You're gonna help me? Faith: I owe it to you. To both of you. Mrs. Golden: … He came to the door, said he wanted to work out a deal. He would help me with a complaint against you. Said we could sue the city and make a fortune. All I had to do was drop the rape. He thou

I asked her a bunch of questions and then, after a little while she answered. Gusler: Yeah, she went right after her, it was amazing. Det. Newcastle: Did you mirandize her? Det. Hall: You did advise her of her rights? Faith: Did I? Gusler: Excuse me? Det. Hall: Did Officer Yokas advise the suspect of her rights before questioning her? [Gusler looks between Det.

I got there just after she did and she squared off with Yokas. Then Noble comes in...it's a big circle jerk. I see Noble, behind Cruz, pull a gun from his jacket pocket. So I shot him once.

I went along with Cruz from the beginning. Can I go see her now?
  • My Opening Farewell [5.02]

    Alex Taylor was a...she was a...she was a pain the ass. I never met anyone as stubborn as her, you couldn't tell her anything. Just this morning Doc told me that him and Lieutenant Johnson told her to get off that car like ten times, ten times and she wouldn't do it. I remember hearing...but I remember hearing her answer when they told her to get off. She said that...the woman that she was with...was afraid. Not that she was hurt badly or dying but just, afraid. Can you imagine, risking your life so that another person isn't scared? I don't think I'll ever be capable of that kind of sacrifice but, I'm going to spend whatever time I have left trying to live up to that. Mrs Taylor, I was with your daughter at the end. I held her hand. There was only one thing on her mind. You. She wanted me to tell you that it didn't hurt. That's all she wanted was for you to know. Her last thoughts were not of herself. She wanted to go out on her own terms. She wanted to leave a message and no one was g

Kim: No, you're back because you crossed the line with Eugene. Doc: No. I told the truth. Eugene killed Taylor. Kim: Doc, you got to talk to someone. A professional. Doc: About what? Kim: You purposely ran over someone today! Doc: He was shooting at Sully and Davis! Kim: So, what are you a cop now? Doc: Do you want to be the supervisor that bad? Kim: I am the supervisor. I don't care why you came back, and I don't care if you want to make believe this has nothing to do with Eugene and I don't care if you're lying so much that you actually believe it yourself. But let me make one thing clear. My status is not gonna change and if you don't like the way things are here, you ask to be transferred. Doc: Transferred? Kim: Mm-hmm. Doc: Out of my house? Kim: Yeah.
  • A Ticket Grows in Brooklyn [5.09]

    Guy: Oh, come on Officer, that's pretty close. Cut me a break, man. That's close. Bosco: Look, the law does not say "pretty close." It doesn't say "somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 feet from a hydrant."

Why don't we just let you figure this out all by yourselves, huh?! I mean, it bothers you enough to call, al least have the balls to say that it was you! Monroe: (laughs) Cruz: What? Monroe: Bosco said the exact same thing. Cruz: Thanks, Sasha.
  • A Call for Help [5.11]

    Tommy: It was a lot. Bosco: And then you cut his throat? And in all that time, all that stabbing, he never stopped fighting back? Huh? How about when you cut him from the corner of his mouth all the way back to his ear?! Or when you cut his eyes out?! He stop fighting back then?! And when you got behind him to cut his throat--- which you must've done or you'd be covered in his blood. You couldn't have just run away? Huh? Tommy: He was so big, see... Bosco: How'd you cut your hand, Tommy? Tommy: I told you, Jeremy.... Bosco: No, he didn't. Tommy: Yes... Bosco: He would have cut you on the palm. Nobody gets a defensive wound on the back of their hand. You did hold him up against the wall, right? Right? You pushed him back against it while he was begging for his life and then you cut yourself on one of the upswings while you were stabbing your friend in the face!

    Doc: Hey, Kimmy, I'm not going on the street today. Excuse me. Kim: Wait, listen, Doc I need to talk with you, just... (Doc pulls out a gun and shoots Steeper in the stomach) Doc: Like I said, I'm not going on the street today. Doc: 15 minutes. Kim: What? Doc: 15 minutes. Steeper: Please! DK: What are you talking about? Doc: Hey, hey, when he closes this house the people in this community will have to wait at least 15 minutes for medical or fire response. See, I did the math, calculated the response times. Isn't that how you do it, Jack? Doc: He doesn't listen, Kim, so we gotta put it in terms he can understand. Kim: All right, well, we're all listening, okay? We're all here. We're all listening. So why don't we just...just calm down, okay? Doc: No. I'm... I'm calm. Kim: All right. Doc: I told you I wasn't gonna let this house close. Kim: By letting a man die? Doc: No, no, he doesn't have to die. All he has to do is see what 15 minutes feels like when you need help!

    Bosco: You know what really pisses me off? That I was stupid enough to fall for the whole damn "I changed" thing. Nobody changes. People don't change, do they, Dad? We can go out, we can go have all those steak dinners we want, but it don't make us a family. I'm my own family. Dr. Breene: Kim Zambrano actually returned to work from her own mental collapse on September 11th. She pushed aside her own pain and answered the city's call for help. This is a theme, which, as you know, runs through most of the city's emergency employees. Carlos Nieto acted selflessly during the hostage incident at the firehouse and certainly saved Captain Steeper's life. However, as do many of the survivors of 9/11, he clearly doesn't feel heroic. Despite their hesitance to speak openly with me, if they do not locate an avenue for such a discussion, they will never adequately recover from this trauma. Steven: What?

Bosco: Did you see him? Cruz: I saw him. Yokas: You're lying. Cruz: You don't want to mess with me right now! Yokas: You're lying. You never saw... Cruz: It was a... This guy killed a cop!

Swersky: For questioning. Bosco: In the death of a cop. You know what that means. Swersky: I don't have a choice, Bosco. And I'm not sure it would change if I did. Rose: No. Bosco: Just tell him, Ma.

I wasn't gonna lie for anybody. Cruz: Not even for Johnny Boy, huh? Hart: If Johnny couldn't live with what he did, that was his problem. Cruz: He couldn't live with what you did to him. He couldn't live with the disgrace. He was too proud to go to jail. Hart: Oh well, he wasn't too proud to steal money though, was he?

He drew and tried to stab me. Yokas: What the hell do you care what happens to me? Cruz: He started the day trying to put you, me, and Bosco out of commission. Now, you do what you're thinking, and he got two out of three. It's not about you, or me. It's about not letting him win. Now say it! He drew the knife and tried to stab me.

Swersky: Oh, after the fine homicide arrest you made the other day, I'm making you a Field Training Officer. Swersky: The new officer's name is Brendan Finney. Sully: Finney? He's gonna have a bitch of a time with that name. The only other Finney on the job I know is that filthy rat bastard Captain from IAB. Swersky: Sully… Sully: This guy's the dirtiest cop I know. Now he's the one that's investigating all of us. Swersky: Sullivan! This is Probationary Officer Finney. Captain Finney's son. Sully: You gotta be kidding me. Davis: Oh, I'm sure you would.

I don't wanna be trying to figure out where I should be every night and who I'm supposed to side with. Yokas: I'm not asking you to take sides with anyone, Emily. I was asking you to share an important night in my life. Monroe: I thought I was looking for corruption. Capt. Finney: Sergeant Cruz is corruption. She's a cancer on this department. Monroe: What?

Finney: Your name is Grace Foster. You've only been at the 5-5 a couple of weeks. You worked in Bed-Stuy and want to go back there. But I'm hoping you won't until I get a chance to know you better. Levine: Okay, true. We haven't gone out on an official date yet. Carlos: Official, unofficial, it... it... it doesn't matter. We're... we're never gonna date, ever, Levine. I don't even like you.

    The 55 closed that day. The one I knew anyway. It's being rebuilt ten blocks away. The thing is the new precinct won't be on the corner of King and Arthur anymore, so there won't be any Camelot. The idea of Camelot, a place where heroes gather in force, before going out to battle, that'll still be alive, and whatever building becomes the 55, it lives in every police station and fire station in the city, hell in the country, in the world for that matter. Bob Swersky retired as the deputy chief. He spends his days playing with his 12 grandkids; being our boss prepared him for that pretty well. DK took over the squad when Billy Walsh got promoted to battalion chief. Stu LottaZ's ended up taking over Jimmy Doherty's rescue squad. Stu, DK, and Walsh saved 17 people one day from a garment factory fire. They all won medals of honor. Carlos and Holly got married. Today they've got three kids and a big house on Staten Island.
