Fletcher
- Officer Fletcher: John, don't run.
- John Anderton: You don't have to chase me.
- Officer Fletcher: You don't have to run.
- John Anderton: Everybody runs, Fletch.
- [viewing the crime scene of Leo Crow's murder]
- Danny Witwer: I worked homicide before federal. This is what we call an orgy of evidence. You know how many orgies I had as a homicide cop?
- Officer Fletcher: How many?
- Danny Witwer: None.
- [crouches down and looks back up]
- Danny Witwer: This was all arranged.
- [Officer Fletcher, on a jet pack, lands in front of Anderton]
- John Anderton: Rough landing... have to work on that.
- Officer Fletcher: Yeah, it's this shit knee of mine.
- Danny Witwer: The Precogs can see a murder four days out. Why the late call?
- Officer Fletcher: Well, we call it a red ball. With crimes of passion, there's no premeditation, so they show up late. Most of our scrambles are flash events like this one. We rarely see anything with premeditation anymore.
- Danny Witwer: People have gotten the message.
- Officer Fletcher: When the Precogs declare a victim and a killer, their name is embedded in the grain of wood. Since each piece is unique, the shape and grain is unique. The shape and grain is impossible to forge.
- Danny Witwer: I'm sure you all understand the legalistic drawback to Precrime methodology.
- Knott: Here we go again.
- Danny Witwer: Look, I'm not with the ACLU on this, Jeff. But let's not kid ourselves. We are arresting individuals who have broken no law.
- Jad: But they will.
- Officer Fletcher: The commission of the crime itself is absolute metaphysics. The Precogs seethe future, and they're never wrong.
- Danny Witwer: But it's not the future if you stop it.
- Officer Fletcher: Alright, what he's doing now, we call "scrubbing the image." Looking for clues as to where the murder's gonna happen.
