Chief Lt. G. Calvert
- Lt. Calvert: Our inspector... our Mexican-American inspector... is unlikely to be lenient.
- Brett Ridgeman: Politics like always.
- Lt. Calvert: Like cell phones, and just as annoying, politics are everywhere. Being branded a racist in today's public forum is like being accused of being a communist in the 50s, whether its' a possibly racist remark made in a private phone call or the indelicate treatment of a minority who sells drugs to children. The entertainment industry, formerly known as the news, needs villains.
- Anthony Lurasetti: There's certainly nothing hypocritical about the media handling every perceived intolerance with complete and utter intolerance.
- Lt. Calvert: It's bullshit. But it's reality.
- Lt. Calvert: [talking to Brett Ridgeman] A couple more years and you'll be human steamroller, covered with spikes and fuelled with bile.
- Lt. Calvert: Ridgeman, gotta be aware of this stuff. Digital eyes are everywhere.
- Brett Ridgeman: I do what I think best when I'm out there. I was that way when we were partners, and I'm still that way now.
- Lt. Calvert: There's a reason I'm sitting behind this desk running things, and you're out there crouching on fire escapes in the cold for hours, with a partner that's 20 years younger than you.
- Brett Ridgeman: Hey, Anthony's got a mouth with its own engine, but he's solid.
- Lt. Calvert: That wasn't my point... I watched that video a couple times. You threw a lot more cast-iron than you needed to. And when we worked together, you weren't that rough.
- Brett Ridgeman: And?
- Lt. Calvert: It's not healthy for you, to scuff concrete as long as you have. You get results, but you're losing perspective and compassion. Couple more years out there and you're gonna be a human steamroller covered with spikes... and fueled by bile.
- Brett Ridgeman: There's a lot of imbeciles out there.
- Lt. Calvert: Yeah.
- Lt. Calvert: Like cell phones and just as annoying, politics are everywhere. Being branded a racist in today's public forum is like being accused of communism in the 50s, whether it's a possibly offensive remark made in a private phone call or the indelicate treatment of a minority who sells drugs to children. The entertainment industry, formerly known as the news, needs villains.
