Episode Quotes

Lawson: Get rid of him!
Blaine Thomas: Sure I will. You want me to get some money from the safe?
Blaine Thomas: [opens a drawer and pulls out a gun] I mean permanently!

Sgt. T.J. Hooker: You have it all figured out, haven't you? Joyriding, bust, easy hit, stick it to the cop who shot your friend. Walk out of here with a smile on your face.
David Harmon: You got it, Big Daddy.
Sgt. T.J. Hooker: No, you got it, Sunshine.

Those vermin multiply; they feed on decent people. Cops, good cops, keep them in their holes. And you're a good cop, Romano.

Mistakes/Goofs
