Don't you run from me! Sid, you son of a bitch! Sid, I got a rule: anybody I have to chase more than fifty yards gets an ass whoopin'!
S2 E1Internal Affairs
CBCassidy Bridges
So, Evan, when you actually catch a thief, how can you tell if he's actually telling the truth?
Ah, I don't know, I guess it comes from experience, wouldn't you say, Harv? when you learn to read body language, you know, the look in somebody's eye, the tone of their voice, the small gesture, that kind of thing... give a lot away.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, sometimes the signals are so obvious you'd have to be a fool to miss 'em. [as Evan is oblivious to the strong signals of attraction Cassidy is sending]
S2 E2Til Death Do Us Part
Look at them, you'd think they'd never seen a Mexican in a space suit before.
[after having been possibly infected by a deadly virus] Just out of curiosity, doctor, what are thee, ah, symptoms of this infection?
LTLab Technician
After seventy-two hours you get rapidly-rising fever, mental disorientation, um, accumulation of fluid in the lungs, ah, disintegration of the neural system, rhenal and colon failure, liquidation on the internal intestinal membranes, and death within thirty-six hours.
Oh, good, you had me worried there for a minute.
S2 E5Trackdown
There's a very good reason you didn't recognize the shell casing: it's very rare and made in limited-run by a small German firm and Interpol confirms this is the Monk's bullet du jour.
S2 E10Hit Parade
Ah, you wanna handle this one?
I don't know. A man on a cable car with a set of wings holding a hand grenade... this is your thing, isn't it?
AAngel
You realize what just happened?
[as they all hide behind a car from a rooftop assassin] Yeah - somebody's trying to kill us.
AAngel
I found you just like I was supposed to.
What? What the hell you talking about?
AAngel
I'm your guardian angel.
Oh, great - we could use one.
AAngel
[to Joe] I said I was his guardian angel; you, you're on your own.
:[as a suspicious man pushing an ice cream cart approaches then, after just earlier missing multiple assassins] Freeze, bubba, right there!
VVendor
[after reaching down into the cart] Who? Me?
You. Take it out real slow.
VVendor
[after pulling out a popsicle] If you don't want cherry, I got root beer.
[after putting his gun down] No, I'll take cherry.
I'll take root beer. Unless you got a fudgesicle.
S2 E11Promised Land
I dated a shrink once.
Yeah, so did I.
Oh, yeah? Well maybe it was the same guy.
So, I had this dream the other night, right? And in this dream I get save from drowning... by David Hasselhoff. Is that normal?
PPsychiatrist
[laughing] It could mean many things.
Here's what throws me: A guy like Evan goes on a security-duty and spends two minutes schmoozing with Lisa Bridges - Nash's ex - Nash Bridges, acting lieutenant of S.I.U. and next thing you know he's got a full-on romance going on with her.
PPsychiatrist
A full-on romance?
Yeah, that's what I hear.
PPsychiatrist
Sounds like you're envious.
Envious? No. You know that scene in Star Wars where that sand creature takes a thousand years to digest a guy? That's humane compared to what Nash would do if he caught Evan sleeping with his ex.
PPsychiatrist
What is your relationship like with the people that work for you?
Good.
PPsychiatrist
No problems?
We have our issues, but we generally work through them. I respect them and I think they respect me.
PPsychiatrist
You were involved in a shooting yesterday. You killed a man.
I killed a man, yes. I also saved another man's life.
PPsychiatrist
Do you want to talk about it?
What's to talk about?
PPsychiatrist
You tell me.
[sighs] Tommy Luck was a bad man, and his children will no longer have a father. And I did that. [pause] Like I said, he was a bad man. Then I went home to my father, and that's a whole other story.
PPsychiatrist
Your father lives with you?
Yeah, he's great. [starts laughing, remembering] He's got this uh, this pinball machine, and he woke me up about 3:30 in the morning the other day playing the damn thing. What a pain in the ass! [pause] At the time. But I look back on it now and it's a fond memory.
PPsychiatrist
Did you tell your father what happened to you yesterday?
Nah, I spare him the details. [pauses, looks at therapist] ...what?
PPsychiatrist
I get the feeling that you show a lot of concern for other people's feelings, but you haven't told me yet how you feel. How do you feel? [long pause] Can you tell me how you feel, Inspector?
[Nash's smile fades, he looks away and eventually looks back, eyes filled with tears]
S2 E1225 Hours of Christmas
Wish I had as good a relationship with my wife as you have with your ex wife.
divorce her. [laughs]
Well, try this one for a theory and see if it blows your skirt up.
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to suggest Elvis is still in the building.
