[Stottlemeyer notices Randy writing something down in his notebook]
What's that? [Randy shows the page to him] "It looks like her number came up."
It's a zinger. She's a lotto girl, her number came up. Get it?
Yeah.
You last year? Sergeant Beecham shoved that junkie into a lamppost and he said "I'll keep you posted?"
Yeah I heard about that.
Everybody heard about it. People were repeating it; it was famous. This is even better. This is a classic.
If you say so.
Yeah I just need to pick the right moment.
[Approaching] Captain, if you're ready to release the body, I can take her downtown.
Okay. [Starts to sign the paperwork]
I still don't get it. Who would want to kill the lotto girl?
I guess her number came up!
[Randy throws his notebook at him]
Hey! What are you doing?
What are you doing? That was my line, man.
What are you talking about?
Lt. Disher I just said the same thing two seconds ago! Ask the Captain!
Randy, this is a crime scene. [Randy steps over Marissa Kessler's body to confront Kelton]
You know what, he must have heard me! That's okay, look, it's written in my notebook: "It looks like her number came up." Let's see your notebook!
Look, I didn't write it down. I just thought of it.
[In disbelief] Whoa-whoa-whoa! Can you believe this guy? You know, I'm gonna have your badge, Officer...
[Stottlemeyer grabs him and drags him away]
Come on, Shecky, let's walk it off.
