Tom quotes from Blue Heelers

Tom

No, PJ, why don't you take all the credit?

Maggie

Or, how about, "Big head finally cracks it"?

Dash

Listen...I really don't think I can handle calling you Boss. And Sergeant Croydon sounds like you're up yourself...so I thought I'd just stick to calling you Tom. Night, Tom.

Tom

Goodnight, Deidre. There are no secrets in the Victoria Police.

Well, it would have been okay if she didn't gamble it all away.

Tom

Well, that is totally obvious.

Tom

PJ, you need to take a few breaths.

What?

Tom

Go back into your office and close the door. Flop forward like this...collapsing your diaphragm, force the air out of your lungs, slowly...slowly straighten up, letting it all flow back in. Do that 3 times and I think you might get things back into perspective.

Right...

Tom

Do it! Close the door!

I don't think he should be back on the job.

Tom

It's just a card, you know, for Christmas.

Oh well, Boss, you can always use it next year, can't you?

Tom

Thankyou for sharing that, Cooper.

Tom

Doyle, run him over

Maggie

With pleasure

Jack

Oh, I don't know, my great-grandfather went through Gallipoli, and he never had any counselling.

Tom

That's because they didn't have any!

Jack

Oh, I'd feel like a big girl, Boss!

Tom

Next time I want to punish you, I'll tell Doyle and McKinley you said that.

Jack

Oh, they're not big girls, they're terrifying women!

Tom

Mawson. Don't you read your $100 bills?

Jack

Oh, no, I've never had one, Boss.

Tom

Goodbye, McKinley.

Dash

Yep...Tom.

Tom

Deidre. You're a dag.

Tom

We don't have to make a decision straight away. Why don't we just sit on it for a while and make a decision at a later date?

Tess

Sure, Boss. Tomorrow's read-out, then.

Well, it's a bit old fashioned.

Tradition.

Jo

Kind of like a working museum, really.

Tom

But we like it that way, don't we, Parrish?

Tom

I don't know about you people, but I've got a home to go to and a dog to feed.

Jonesy

Is it that time already...

Tess

Oh, Constable.

Jonesy

You wouldn't want me to do it on over time, would you?

Tess

Just as long as you do it.

Tom

So what are your plans for tomorrow?

Just another day.

Tom

Get out of it. Don't you usually spend Christmas with your Mum?

Yes, well, she's ahh...spending Christmas with her new ahh...What do you call it when they're that age?

Tom

Ahh...lover?

Well that was the word I was looking not to say. I mean, I don't even like the idea of my Mum having sex with my Dad!

Tom

That's pathetic, PJ!

This is a thousand times worse. I don't even want to think about it.

Tom

Are you suggesting there should be some kind of sunset peclause on sex?

Absolutely! I mean, if you're over 50 and my mother, you shouldn't be having sex. In fact, you shouldn't be having sex full stop...Present company excluded, of course.

What did you talk about?

Tom

This and that.

Specifically which and what?

Tom

There's something missing.

Somewhere else...

Tom

Thankyou, Fox. Very helpful.
