This is my fault.
It’s not your fault.
PPrincipal
It is my responsibility to keep my staff safe.
There was nothing you could have done!
PPrincipal
Then why am I here?

I don’t envy you, dealing with that crew every day.
TTeacher
They grow on you.
Yeah, like a tumor. You think any of them are gonna come forward?
TTeacher
I’d be very surprised. They don’t trust cops.
We got that.
TTeacher
To be fair, the only time you guys show up is when someone gets shot or someone gets stabbed.
Not for nothing, but that’s kind of the job description.
TTeacher
It’s not an accusation, Detective. It’s reality.
Somehow, where the job used to seem noble, as a single parent now, it just kind of seems selfish.
The one thing I've learned is that life is beautiful, and it's sad but sometimes it's just practical. Money counts.
I know him.
You don't. Nobody knows anybody, Anthony. That's the one thing we all come to learn in this business.
He's a stand up guy, Erin.
Well, he wouldn't be the first stand up guy to fall down.
Can't we just be like a normal family and you guys just ask us about school or something?
JJack
Or talk about the good things that happened this week?
It's tradition.
Because there's almost nothing to learn from success. Failure, on the other hand, is the best teacher you'll ever have.
Do you believe him?
Yeah, I think I do.
That “think” kind of waters it down.
Erin's taking a look.
LLenny
That's good.
I didn't ask her to over look, just look.
Something occurred to me today. You are the only member of this department to have presided over a line of duty death both as the commissioner and as a fallen officer's father.
Meaning?
That maybe you should hold off meeting with the mayor until...
Until I'm calm. That'll be never.
Amir's friend ID'd the shooter.
Yeah, but DeSilva was already in the back seat of the squad car when he was identified as the shooter.
So what?
So identifying him while he's in the backseat of a police car already handcuffed is suggestive. There's no way I can get a conviction.
KKelly
It gets resolved the way most disputes do. Nobody gets everything they want.
Perps do. It's free money.
KKelly
It's nickels on the dollar.
They're still free nickels.
I'm just saying it's kind of boring.
Baseball is boring. Seriously?
Yeah, the games are like nine hours long. Nothing actually happens.
Baseball is a metaphor for life.
Yeah, and I'm not going to spend my lunch watching a bunch of grown men in pajamas…
It's okay if you don't like Jack. A lot of people don't, including my entire family and, for the better part of the last eight years, me. So, if you don't like him, just say you don't like him.
Okay, I don't like him.
Why thank you, I left my English to Brooklyn dictionary at home.
Wow, you’re just a boatload of one liners today.
I know it was like throwing pebbles but sometimes if pebbles is all you've got that's what you throw.
