Officer Carl Levitt
- Officer Carl Levitt: Alright, Mr. Spangler you're being released on bail. Failure to appear in court on the date specified will result in forfeiture of bail and a felony warrant for your arrest.
- Howard Spangler: What ?
- Officer Carl Levitt: You can go.
- Howard Spangler: Oh, no, no, thank you.
- Officer Carl Levitt: I'm not asking you, I'm telling you.
- Howard Spangler: Well, I am not leaving.
- Officer Carl Levitt: Hey we need this space... Will you get down from there ?
- Det. Stan 'Wojo' Wojciehowicz: Uh, Levitt, What's going on ?
- Officer Carl Levitt: He won't get down.
- Christopher Galt: Howard, we can get back to the office and talk to Dr. Hobbes.
- Howard Spangler: No, you're not getting me back to that miserable office. That tiny little cubicle with no window or no air. I got rights !
- Howard Spangler: Mr. Spangler, we can get you a ride home.
- Howard Spangler: I don't want to go home.
- Det. Stan 'Wojo' Wojciehowicz: Where do you want to go ?
- Howard Spangler: I want to go back ?
- Det. Stan 'Wojo' Wojciehowicz: Back where ?
- Howard Spangler: Back There !
- Christopher Galt: Total personality collapse
- Howard Spangler: That's right Galt. I got to be crazy, right? I got to be crazy to want to back to people who imprison me ! Who made me sleep on dirt floors and eat rotten food. Made me walk for miles in the pouring rain and the burning sun, just like they did.
- Christopher Galt: Excuse me .
- Howard Spangler: That's right Galt ! Get out of here ! Go crawling back to the big bosses who feed off the flesh of the peasants .
- Christopher Galt: I am late for a meeting
- Howard Spangler: But you're not taking me with you ! Not Howard Spangler !
- Capt. Barney Miller: All right, you want to get down from there ?
- Howard Spangler: No ! I found out something down there. People can make a difference. Nothing's impossible. The longest journey begins with a single step !
- Capt. Barney Miller: Alright Mr Spangler.
- Howard Spangler: When the going gets tough, the tough gets going. I want a plane out of here tonight !
- Capt. Barney Miller: Look
- Howard Spangler: Julio get there guns !
- Julio Rodriguez: I don't think so.
- Howard Spangler: All right, forget it ! I don't need you. Don't you understand ? Those people had something down there... I never had. Commitment. A belief -- belief in something so strong they were willing to fight for it. They were willing to die for it. I was apart of that !
- Capt. Barney Miller: Those people are going to keep fighting for what they believe in whether your there or not.
- Howard Spangler: No they won't
- Capt. Barney Miller: Why not ?
- Howard Spangler: Because they won !
- Capt. Barney Miller: Huh ?
- Det. Stan 'Wojo' Wojciehowicz: They did ?
- Howard Spangler: Three weeks after I was let go, they conquered the capital and overthrew the Junta. So now, Javier, Felipe and all the rest of them are roasting pigs in the Presidential Palace, while Mr. Lucky is stuck back here! But, I - I carried my share of the load sport. I - I did my part. I broke my back for those people. And what did I get for it ? A one-way ticket home without so much as a thank you ! It's not fair ! It's not fair !
