I don't see this as a joke Chief Gillespie.
CWChief William O. 'Bill' Gillespie
You come in and address me with a joke and that's the way I'm gonna respond to you.
“Accused” · Season 2, Episode 18
In this episode: D.A. Dutton (3), Chief of Detectives Virgil Tibbs (1), Officer Parker Williams (1), Officer Wilson Sweet (1)
The black community will not accept anything less.
Mister Dutton, I didn't realize you had become such an expert on the black community.
CWChief William O. 'Bill' Gillespie
You mean Bubba Skinner? He just left here.
He left? You turned him loose?
CWChief William O. 'Bill' Gillespie
No sir, Judge McCurtin over at the court turned him loose. Known as due process of law. I'm sure they taught you something about that before you left Ole Miss.
[Over police radio] Bubba, what's your position?
[Skinner silently rolls eyes at radio]
Say again. Please respond with your position Bubba.
SVSgt. V. L. 'Bubba' Skinner
Parker, will you knock off that Miami Vice stuff. You know where I'm at and you know I'm having lunch.
Bubba, you must have been one hell of a linebacker.
SVSgt. V. L. 'Bubba' Skinner
Sweet, if you're gonna say what I think you're gonna say, don't.
Because if you hit quarterbacks as hard as you hit that truck... [laughs]
SVSgt. V. L. 'Bubba' Skinner
Sweet, won't you go someplace and do something useful with yourself, huh?
