Quotes

*Monroe: Look at my record. It is spotless. This is the first mistake that I’ve made of any kind. I do my job. I do it damn well, strictly by the book.
Captain: Forgive me, Officer, but I get a little dubious when I hear "first mistake" and "by the book."
*Carlos: Oh man. I do not like the looks we’re getting.
Levine: What looks?
Carlos: From Billy, DK, all of them. It’s like we’re guests in our own house again.
Levine: That was Steeper, not those guys.
