You know, Mac... the uh, the Department decides to go through with their internal investigation, I'm gonna have to answer questions. All I know is what you told me when I got up to the top.
Why do we wake up in the morning at three o'clock, stand at a crime scene in the freezing cold, living paycheck-to-paycheck, for what? To protect and serve? Serve who, the public? Sometimes it seems like they hate us, and then, here we got the brass ready to throw us to the lions.
FFlack
(shrugs) We do it cause we're good at it. Maybe we'd be lousy at anything else. I don't know. Maybe we do it for the one or two times somebody actually thanks us for finding their son's murderer.
Apparently I'm the kind of person who just does whatever he wants, why disappoint them?
[after getting dirt on his boss, which forces him to back off the investigation into Mac and how Clay Dobson ended up falling from a roof where he was with Mac]
In theory, if you built a machine that could travel the speed of light away from here, then slowed down, turned around and flew home just as fast, when you got back, a trip that might have lasted just seconds for you, could've been weeks for everybody else.
(appearing by the car) Detectives. Oh. I'm not interrupting anything, am I? (suddenly getting in the backseet of the car) You two have been trailing me for the last couple of hours. Now, if you're going to follow me, you may as well have a copy of my itinerary. We've got lunch at Stang's in, oh, fifteen minutes. That might be a bit expensive on your boyfriend's salary. The rest of the day is here. Saks, Bloomingdale's. I've got a meeting at four in the office. You get the idea and, um, I jotted down my cell phone in case you have trouble keeping up. Have a nice day. (gets out out of the car & walks away)
Patti, come on. These magic lollipops are like the hot new thing.
PNPatti Nelson
Look, I told you. I am sorry she's dead, but those lollipops aren't worth killing for.
FFlack
Listen to me, I already got you on possession of heroin. Just a hop, skip and a jump to murder if I work this right, and for your information, I'm very good. Especially since Jenna's dead body shows us that she was in one hell of a fight right before that party.
After hitting a few bars, I went back to Brett's apartment and that's when I found him. I started to call the cops, right? But it's not like there was anything I could do. He was already dead. I had to get him to the park.
FFlack
Uh, y-you're gonna have to help us out here, pal. Why did you have to get Brett to the park?
GFGeorge Foodim
It was a bet. He was engaged twice before, couldn't go through with it. I bet our buddy Toby that Brett would definitely show up this time. There was no way I was gonna lose.
Whoa, whoa. You stuffed, dressed and moved your dead friend for a bet?
GFGeorge Foodim
It was a hundred grand, man. I...I don't have it. And if I didn't pay up, Toby would have gone to my dad.
DFDet. Flack
It never occurred to you, with your friend being dead and all, that just maybe the bet was off?
GFGeorge Foodim
I told you.
FFlack
Yeah. Fifteen shots of tequila. I heard you.
GFGeorge Foodim
Yeah, well it made... made sense yesterday morning. I feel bad. If you knew Brett, Brett, (laughs a bit) Yeah, I mean, he, he would've laughed. He would've done the same thing, I'm telling you.
