Why is it every time there's a car wreck on the other side of the divider, all the cars on your side get out to look at it? Are they expecting to see blood?

[sitting at an outdoor table eating an omelet. Agents Shore and Slater walk up to his table] Who's he?
DSAgent Dan Shore
This is Agent Slater
Oh, I guess I should have said "come alone" but it always sounds so melodramatic.
DSAgent Dan Shore
We live in the melodrama capital of the world. Otherwise guys like you wouldn't be able to make a living.
This is Jim Rockford. At the tone leave your name and message, I'll get back to you.
CCaller
Hi sonny, it's Rocky. I got the bill and I've been trying to figure out what everybody owes on LJ's birthday party. Tell me, did you have the Pink Lady?
[Rockford pulls up to the speaker at a Jack in the Box drive-thru]
YMYoung Man
Your order please.
Call the police.
YMYoung Man
Your order, please!
That's it. You got it. There's a guy following me in a white 1974 Datsun, California plates. Tell the police I'll be headed south on Perdugo and for them to intercept.
YMYoung Man
Are you nuts, mister? Is this a joke?
Just tell them he took a shot at me... and while you're at it could you throw in a taco and a bag of fries?
[Kate watches Jim pick the lock at the club]
KKate
That's illegal!
So is what we're about to do.
Your beef is with Jimmy, I had nothing to do with this...
TThompkins
Shut up.
You know, I'm just an innocent bystander.
TThompkins
They're the ones that usually get shot.
DDDep. DA Burton Kimball
I'm about to suggest that Captain Auden suspend your license for a few months.
Go ahead and suggest it.
DDDep. DA Burton Kimball
He could do it.
Yeah. Yeah, and then I'd appeal and there'd have to be a hearing, and what I've been investigating and why would all have to come out in the open. So, unless you're absolutely clean in all this, and I have a hunch you're not, you're gonna have a lot of explaining to do. You wanna finish your conversation?
This is Jim Rockford. At the tone leave your name and message, I'll get back to you.
CCaller
[beeep] It's Jack. The check is in the mail. Sorry it's two years late. Sorry I misfigured my checking account and I'm overdrawn. Sorry I stopped payment on it, so when it comes tear it up. Sorry.
Would you knock off that "Rockfish" stuff? The name is RockFORD!
GGandy
OK, Rockfish.
This is Jim Rockford. At the tone leave your name and message, I'll get back to you.

LKLarry 'King' Sturtevant
[at police HQ where Rockford is being held on suspicion of murder] And then I held him at, ah, gunpoint for ten, fifteen minutes, and then you guys showed up. [he nods his head at Beth, who is staring at him blankly] Hi. [he turns back to Becker grinning] Will you take a look at her! She's so starstruck she's speechless!
Is that everything? The whole statement?
LKLarry 'King' Sturtevant
Yeah, yeah that's it. [he turns back to Beth] Ah, listen honey, try not to stare. I know it's difficult, but why don't you just relax and later the two of us will go get some coffee. I'll let you look at my scrapbook, hah?
That'd be lovely, only I gave up reading the funnies in the third grade.
Now I like you a lot Jim, but I don't like you that much, so keen judgment and an eye toward good health demand that I skate on this thing. I know you understand!
This is Jim Rockford. At the tone leave your name and message, I'll get back to you.
CCaller
[beeep] Jim, it's Harry. We've been waiting on you two hours. The forks! Where's the forks? Lasagna ain't no finger food!
Two years ago when I first met you, I thought, 'This is the one', and I took out my little lariat and I swung it over my head and I took dead aim, and I tossed. I must have thrown it 50 times since then. But I gotta hand it to you, Jim, you're a tough catch. Sometimes, I don't know, last year I guess, I sort of settled for friend and I started looking for someone with more long-range possibilities. David looked like a good candidate.
Thanks, but I'm still jealous.
[to Beth] Well you know honey, when you take a chance on someone, you gotta be ready to get hurt. That doesn't mean you should stop taking chances. If you stop, you're really through.
