Police Lt. Sam Lubinsky
- Jim Reardon: [referring to the man dieing] How much time has he got?
- Lieutenant Sam Lubinsky: He's behind schedule now.
- 'Swede' Andersen: What am I going to do if I quit fightin'?
- Lt. Sam Lubinsky: Well, there's always the department.
- 'Swede' Andersen: No, I wouldn't want to be a copper.
- Lt. Sam Lubinsky: It's not a bad life, Ole. Twenty years and you've got a pension. And it's $2,200 a year to start.
- 'Swede' Andersen: $2,200 a year. You know something? Some months I made that much in one month. Some months.
- Lieutenant Sam Lubinsky: Ole and I ran around together when we were kids. I joined the department. He started fightin'. We always kept in touch.
- Jim Reardon: And you put the pinch on him?
- Lieutenant Sam Lubinsky: When you're a copper, you're a copper.
- Lieutenant Sam Lubinsky: Mr. Reardon is investigating his death.
- Lilly Harmon Lubinsky: He was a good boy. No one had any call to kill him.
- Lieutenant Sam Lubinsky: Lilly knew Ole too. The three of us were together a good part of the time. She was always in love with him.
- Lilly Harmon Lubinsky: Sam!
- Lieutenant Sam Lubinsky: And I was always in love with her.
- Lt. Sam Lubinsky: You're done fightin', Ole. And if you want my opinion, it's a lucky thing. You aren't punchy yet. Suppose it was your brains were scrambled instead of your hand?
