TV show quotes
Pete Miller didn't fire the gun. He was standing next to the guy who did.
It was an accident. I was aiming for the shooter. It was a good shoot.
Don't say anything else.
If it was a good shoot, you wouldn't have lied about how it went down.
I wanted to tell the truth.
Then why didn't you?
I was told not to.
By who?
It wasn't his fault. He was trying to protect me.
Who told you to lie?
Sergeant Messer.
Maybe our suspect is still running around with the green fairy.
We're talking about a suspect who walked up to a random stranger and blew him away.
Well, guy's not playing with a full deck.
But he's got a loaded gun.
I got good news and bad news, Sheldon. Good news is, this fiber looks like something Adam pulled off Pete Miller's clothing.
What's the bad news?
It means I can't work this case anymore.
If you find the gun, it will clear Officer Cooper.
Clears them all.
Well, not necessarily. I mean, even if you close this case today, it's still an embarrassment for the department. They're still gonna want to point the finger at somebody.
For what?
You have any idea how many administrative regulations there are, Sheldon? I do, 'cause I stayed up all night reading about them.
Look, Lindsay, I know you're worried, okay? But we're scientists, and there's no empirical evidence to suggest Internal Affairs is on a witch hunt.
Well, I hope you're right.
Get the Geek, huh?
I bet he told his mother he was in show business.
Meet Thomas Hurtz. Star and proprietor of 'Get the Geek'. This guy insults you, you pay him five bucks, get a chance to shoot him with a paintball gun.
Well, clearly, the shooter didn't understand the rules of the game. He shot him with a real gun.
Why did Officer Cooper use your weapon?
I tell my guys to keep their off-duty pieces at home when they go to the bar.
But you were armed.
Yeah, I wasn't drinking. And thank God I had my gun. Otherwise, we might be investigating a cop murder.
(About Danny) What do you think about him?
As a boss? He's excellent.
Officer Cooper, she's smart, she's got instincts. I think she'll be a good cop.
Well, she speaks highly of you, as well. Says you're a great boss.
Let's review your choices last night. You went out drinking with your patrolmen, you brought a loaded weapon into a crowded bar, got into an altercation with a patron. Ended up the night half-unconscious on the pavement as one of your officers shot the patron to death with your own weapon. You seem capable, Sergeant Messer. Things you did in that lab... way over my head. But as a boss, you're way over yours.
So, there were two guns. Pete Miller used one of them. Friends must have taken it when they fled.
Flack's trying to track 'em down, but all he has is the cops' descriptions to go by. No luck so far.
There's one thing I bet the friends didn't take when they ran.
Hmm?
The bullet Pete fired.
You ever dance with the green fairy?
I can't help you, Adam.
I'm talking about absinthe. It's the 19th century version of magic mushrooms.
Adam, what do you get when you have a sergeant involved in a shooting, his wife who works in the crime lab and an IAB investigation? Conflict of interest.
Oh, oh. I'm... Oh, I'm sorry. I... Is he okay?
Oh, yeah, he's fine. He's got a couple stitches in his head. He's gonna give a statement to Internal Affairs.
All right, well, you tell him that we're all thinking about him.
I will. Thanks, Adam. Tell EDNA I said hello.
Shoot to stop.
Hmm?
What you're taught at the academy. Fire in bursts of twos and threes.
Yet here we have a single gunshot wound to the chest, almost perfectly placed. Bullet lodged in the heart.
Could mean Officer Cooper kept cool. Took an opportunity. Lucky shot in an unlucky situation.
Of course, he may not have had a gun at all, Mac. In which case, she fired by mistake and killed an unarmed man.
Let me take you to the hospital.
I'm fine, babe. I got to stay here for them.
There's nothing you can do for them now, honey, except maybe bleed all over them.
She's right, Sergeant Messer. Can't mess around with a head injury. I'm Lieutenant Adler, Internal Affairs. How you doing?
It's not… it's not a head injury.
Great. Then you won't mind answering a few questions.
Actually, he does mind. We're on our way to the E.R.
You're not going to make me pull rank here, are you? You know you got to talk to me.
Look, Lieutenant. According to regulations, he has 24 hours before he can be compelled to make a statement. So he can talk to you then.
Run me through it, Danny.
All right, so, uh, we... came here for a drink after shift, just to blow off some steam. The guy in the white shirt, he's a sloppy drunk.
This was the victim?
Yeah. He got aggressive with Cooper. She said, you know, she told him to back off. He was reluctant to leave. So I showed him the door.
You identify yourself as a policeman?
No, Mac, I mean, the guy was wasted... I show him my shield, it makes things worse. The guy was a jerk. And I didn't give it a second thought... till a few hours later. Next thing I know, I'm looking up into the sky, my off-duty piece is in Cooper's hand and this guy is dead.
