Quotes

Gridlock

Edit
  • Jake Gorsky: [on dimes] And I though all you were good for was parking meters and payphones.
  • Jake Gorsky: [pointing a gun at a hostage taker's groin] If you ever wanna have kids, you'll give me that gun!
  • Jake Gorsky: There's a radio in the chopper... but there's an idiot on the other end of it.
  • Jake Gorsky: [to number three] Sorry about the face, wasn't personal... but you were spraying bullets at me.
  • Joe Gorsky: Walt, you're too stupid to live.
  • Ron Delano: Maybe you have a problem with commitment?
  • Jake Gorsky: What do you call living together for four and a half years?
  • Ron Delano: Convenient?
  • Ron Delano: Bane hates your guts, and he's the acting chief.
  • Jake Gorsky: Bane couldn't negotiate a hot meal to a starving man!
  • Jake Gorsky: Just doing my job.
  • Joe Gorsky: You're lucky you still have a job!
  • Jake Gorsky: Oh please... you're not gonna give me the "rules and regulations" speech again are you?
  • Bane: You've got your kid flying? I sent him over here to fly a desk!
  • Michele Conner: [On the phone] Hi, Jake.
  • Jake Gorsky: I've been trying to reach you all day.
  • Michele Conner: I've been trying to reach YOU for four and a half years!
  • Mr. Three: [Holding Michele hostage] I don't got any time for any funny business!
  • Michele Conner: Neither do I!
  • [Flips him onto the ground, punches him and runs off]
  • Jake Gorsky: [Jakes enters the coin room, which is behind bulletproof glass. The terrorists spot him and start shooting, but the bullets ricochet off the bulletproof glass] I love this glass!
  • Jake Gorsky: Where did you learn to fight like that?
  • Michele Conner: I had alot of time for classes - you were NEVER home!
  • Michele Conner: [On the roof of the building, outnumbered by terrorists] There's nowhere to go - we're fourteen storeys up!
  • Jake Gorsky: Trust me!
  • Michele Conner: Like being home in time for dinner?
  • Jake Gorsky: I told you I was sorry! Go, go!
  • Michele Conner: Don't you have a radio on the helicopter?
  • Jake Gorsky: Yeah, there's a radio on the helicopter, but there's an idiot on the other end of it!
  • Mr. One: [after spotting Jake and Michele on surveillance cameras, after thinking he'd killed them already] How many lives do these people have?
  • Jake Gorsky: [Seeing the hostages in the basement] Looks like some of them are in pretty bad shape. We gotta get 'em out of there.
  • Michele Conner: Jake, you don't even have a gun!
  • [Jake fishes into his pockets and pulls out a small bottle and hands it to her]
  • Michele Conner: Pepper spray? We need help!
  • Mr. One: [Pointing a gun at Jake] How do I kill you? Drive a wooden stake into your heart?
  • Joe Gorsky: [to his boss] Walt, you are too stupid to live!
  • Jake Gorsky: [Seeing a cart filled to the brim with cash] You know, we could have a nice life together with 50 million!
  • Michele Conner: At this point, I'd settle for a life!
  • Jake Gorsky: [On the phone] Bane, I'm down here with a bunch of perps who just knocked off a couple billion from the Federal Reserve.
  • Bane: Is this a joke?
  • Jake Gorsky: You'll be one if you don't get your butt down here!
  • Jake Gorsky: Y'know Bane, I always thought you were a stupid cop. I think I overestimated you.
  • Jake Gorsky: [to himself, trying to smash through the window from outside] Ok Gorsky... let's try the window!
  • Jake Gorsky: [after smashing through a window together] Are you ok?
  • Michele Conner: NO!
  • Jake Gorsky: [Looking at portraits of former bank governors] I'd hate to play poker with these guys!
  • Michele Conner: How come there's no back-up or something?
  • Jake Gorsky: Nobody knows I'm here.
  • Michele Conner: What?
  • Jake Gorsky: You don't think I can handle it?
  • Michele Conner: Jake, I wasn't questioning your manhood!
  • Jake Gorsky: Follow me.
  • [Michele doesn't move and gives Jake a stern look]
  • Jake Gorsky: Are you coming?
  • Michele Conner: Do you know where you are?
  • Jake Gorsky: The Border Governors room.
  • Michele Conner: You're 12 storeys above the loading dock. Do you know there are surveillance cameras all over this building?
  • Jake Gorsky: [Nods] That makes sense.
  • Michele Conner: Do you know where they are?
  • Jake Gorsky: [Shakes his head] No.
  • Michele Conner: Do you know where the elevators are? Or the stairwells?
  • Jake Gorsky: What's your point?
  • Michele Conner: My point is, this is MY territory. Don't say "follow me". You need me!
  • [Jakes gives her a confused look]
  • Michele Conner: Admit it. Just say it. You need me!
  • Jake Gorsky: Can we just go? We'll talk about that later!
  • Jake Gorsky: Why didn't you shoot him when you had the chance?
  • Michele Conner: If you hadn't been in the way, I would have. Right now, you're making me feel like it was worth the gamble!
  • Jake Gorsky: [Looking at the funds being transferred by the terrorists from the bank to a foreign account] Can we stop this?
  • Michele Conner: I'm not a computer whizz, Jake.
  • Jake Gorsky: [Looks around the room and sees an office chair] *I* am!
  • [Takes the backrest off the chair and smashes it through the monitor, triggering an alarm]
  • Jake Gorsky: Whoops.
  • Jake Gorsky: [Walking down a corridor, Jake and Michele are suddenly blocked off by terrorists on either end] Hold it guys! Do you realise that if you shoot us, and miss, you'll hit each other!
  • Perpetrator #2: [Jake takes the pistol from the perps hand] You're crazy man.
  • Jake Gorsky: Maybe.
  • [Pulls the trigger, the chamber is empty]
  • Jake Gorsky: But I can count!
  • Joe Gorsky: Listen, you. I was the first chopper cop your outfit had! Fifteen years up there! How many you got? Six?
  • Jake Gorsky: I'm still up there! I didn't get assigned to stand in front of a map for the rest of my life.
  • Michele Conner: [On the phone to Jake who's hovering above the building in a chopper] Jake, I gotta go. The bank's closing in three minutes and it takes forever to get through security if I don't get out of here in time.
  • Jake Gorsky: I'll be flying past your door in a couple minutes. Wave, huh?
  • Michele Conner: Don't count on it. Bye, Jake.
