Pembleton and Michael Giardello in “Unfinished Business”

Pembleton

Hello. I'm Frank Pembleton.

Michael Giardello

Mike Giardello.

Pembleton

I heard about Gee. I'm sorry.

Michael Giardello

Thanks. For catching the man who killed my father.

Pembleton

I'm good at catching the bad guys. Caught me a couple tonight. A lot of people have worked in this squadroom over the years. A lot of 'em have died. Beau Felton got killed in the line of duty. Steve Crosetti committed suicide. To this day, nobody knows why.

Michael Giardello

Do you miss it? Homicide?

Pembleton

I don't know. It's not like you can escape it, you know. Death is every day. Death goes on and on and on.

Michael Giardello

And that's because life goes on and on.
