Harry Shannon
- Chief Harry Shannon: [16:53] I want Patrovita!
- Chief Harry Shannon: He killed Blair?
- Chief Harry Shannon: Blair was covering a government witness who could have put the bastard away forever. No, he had somebody do it.
- Mark Kaminsky: There's nothing that a small town sheriff can do that you can't.
- Chief Harry Shannon: Oh, no, no, no! The bureau has nothing to do with this, I'm financing this, myself. I have $45, 000 in savings. I want you to get inside the Patrovita organization and tear it up.
- Mark Kaminsky: What do you think I look like, Dirty Harry?
- Chief Harry Shannon: I think you look like an unhappy man.
- Mark Kaminsky: You have a cure?
- Chief Harry Shannon: Possible reinstatement back into the bureau. Hmm?
- Mark Kaminsky: How?
- Chief Harry Shannon: The bureau has been trying to get someone inside for a year but there's a big leak somewhere. All our guys keep getting nailed. That's why nobody but me will know about you. NOBODY. Now, you do a good job, you pull this off, and you've got a great shot. Now, what do you say?
- Mark Kaminsky: Do you think I'll still pass the physical?
- Chief Harry Shannon: [16:21] Do you remember my son Blair?
- Mark Kaminsky: Yeah. We went to a few ball games together. He joined the bureau, didn't he?
- Chief Harry Shannon: Yeah.
- Mark Kaminsky: How is he?
- Chief Harry Shannon: [pauses] Dead.
- Marvin Baxter: [1:00:38] Look, I know with you its personal, but we're both after the same thing - justice. Right, Harry? Justice?
- Chief Harry Shannon: Fuck justice!
- Chief Harry Shannon: [4:40] I want a list of everybody in witness protection who knew we were watching Marchelino, and anybody else who could have known, from the district attorney to the commissioner. They're dead, Mike. Whoever set this up. Whatever it takes, they're dead.
- Mark Kaminski: [14:22] Hold it. That's Baxter!
- Harry Shannon: I know, I know.
- Mark Kaminski: What the hell's he got to do with it?
- Harry Shannon: He's special federal prosecutor.
- Mark Kaminski: That son of a bitch cost me a career!
- Harry Shannon: You brought in a suspect with half the bones in his body broken. Any prosecutor would have been after you.
- Mark Kaminski: Well, you remember the case! The guy kidnapped an 11 year old girl! He molested, murdered, and mutilated her!
- Harry Shannon: Well, the public wasn't too keen on heavy handed cops at the time.
- Mark Kaminski: Baxter was out to nail me to the wall. I went to see him and try to tell him what happened.
- Harry Shannon: What did he say?
- Mark Kaminski: Resign or be prosecuted. Any way you want it!
