Beck quotes from Jericho

Sheriff Green? Nice uniform.

Jake

[lifting up casual jacket to show badge pinned to jeans] I'm pacing myself.

Mr. Goetz has already informed me of your previous run-ins.

Jake

Yeah, did he tell you about the massacre he and his men carried out in Rogue River? Did he give you a head count on how many people he murdered in New Bern?

My wife was in Santa Fe when the attacks came. After that, uh…

Heather

I'm sorry.

I have to hope that she's okay. Until then I do my job. And I, uh, I trust that wherever she is, some army major is looking after her the way I try to look after the people under my charge.

Jake

It's not gonna wait twelve hours.

Well, it's gonna have to. Things are coming apart at the seams in New Bern right now. And you have my word, tomorrow I'm gonna get into this but for tonight I'm trusting that you can keep things under control here. That means Goetz is off limits. No threats, no retribution, no exceptions. Do you understand?

The Rangers are now considered fugitives. I want all of them.

Jake

Good luck finding them.

Until they're produced I'm declaring Jericho to be in a state of open insurrection. Lights, power, food supplies... 9 pm tonight, I'm shutting it all down.

Jake

We've lived without that stuff before; we'll do it again.

[about capturing the Rangers] How long and how much this town suffers is up to its citizens. Somebody knows where those men are.

Heather

The Rangers were saving lives back when you couldn't have found Jericho on a map.

Jake

It's my fault. No one else's. I'm the sheriff. I...

You were sheriff.

Jake

I'm the only one to blame. The only one, so my terms are simple. My surrender for the amnesty of the other Rangers.

I accept your surrender. [Pauses] But not the terms.

Heather

He said this government is corrupt and illegitimate. That it lied about who attacked us to seize power.

You're naive.

Heather

And you're a coward.

Excuse me?

Heather

You know there's something wrong with this country, and you refuse to open your eyes and see it.
