SSwarek

  [flirtatiously]  A perfect match, McNally, you and me.  'Cause you are very high-maintenance, and I can fix anything.

Scenes with Swarek 13

  I don't like being raked over coals for not knowing the "secret handshake".  You know, console yourself.  I'll probably be fired.  You know what?  There's still a dead guy lying in that house.  Oh, and there's another guy running free and clear with a gun.  So whenever you feel like this is out of your system, maybe you'd care to act like a cop for five minutes.

  [chuckles]  You've only been a cop for five minutes.

[…]

SSwarek

  One of 'em ran into an empty building.  It's a good place to hide a gun.

  Okay, which empty building? 

SSwarek

  You know, the one right near where you tackled me, tried to kiss me.  [McNally snickers]

[Shaw and the thief McNally arrested watch her fumble with her bag and uniform while trying to open the door]

  She's a rookie.

TThief

  Pfft.  It shows.

  [smacks him in the head]  Hey.  She caught you, didn't she?

  I can book him.  [turns and sees Swarek in uniform] 

SSwarek

  Oh, hello.

  You're in uniform? 

SSwarek

  Yeah, well, can't really work undercover now that everybody on the street knows I'm a cop, so thanks for that.  [to the thief Shaw is about to process]  She, uh, chase you down an alley and jump on you, too? 

TThief

  Yeah, yeah.

SSwarek

  Yeah, she does that.  [looks at McNally]  You sure he's not an undercover cop?

SSwarek

  Okay, so I'm sure you've had the talk.  Partners…you back me up no matter what.  Don't move less I tell you to.  It's my car, so my rules are the rules.

  Yes, sir.

SSwarek

  Good, so here's my addendum.  I'm here because I'd rather work the streets than man the wire room until a spot in guns and gangs opens up.  And while I do like working the streets, I did not ask to train a rookie.  I did not ask to have a partner.  I'm not your boyfriend.  I will not be holding your hand.

  Well, that's great, 'cause I don't date cops anyway.

SSwarek

  [smirks]  Sweetheart, you're not my type.

SSwarek

  Why are you so happy?  Don't tell me.  You're jazzed about the open house.

NNash

  My 6-year-old gets to see where I work, and he's excited.  So he gets excited, I get excited.  It's an all-around exciting day.

SSwarek

  I guess he thinks, like everybody else, we play with plastic guns and yell "stick 'em up"?

SSwarek

  [looks over at a grumpy McNally]  You wanna drive, just let me know.  We can switch.

  Why are you being so nice to me right now?

SSwarek

  I'm a nice guy.

  No, you are not.

  Hope you're enjoying this.

SSwarek

  Yeah.  Why is that? 

  Oh, me and you, driving fast, chasing bad guys.  This really might be the last time we do this together.

SSwarek

  Oh, you miss me already.  That's sweet.

  So this undercover operation with Boyd…I mean, is it dangerous? 

SSwarek

  Well, they don't usually do deep cover on people with parking tickets Unless you got a lot of 'em, then it's a joint meter maid/E.T.F thing.  Why?  You wanna come with me? 

  Just thought maybe you could use the backup.

SSwarek

  Oh?

  I heard last time you were in deep cover, you got chased down and tackled by a girl.

SSwarek

  Overeager rookie.  Didn't want to make her look bad on her first day.

[in the ambulance]

  You're gonna lie there, and you're gonna listen to me.  I'm gonna tell you a story.  It was just, you know, a normal night, and we were lying in bed.  And my stomach was hurting from laughing 'cause you were teasing me about something.  I don't remember what.  I must have fallen asleep or something, because all of a sudden I was having this this really terrible dream.  And I couldn't stop crying.  You know, I was crying and you weren't even really awake.  I remember you you grabbed me.  I remember you were just holding me so tight, all of a sudden, you said, "I'm right here.  I'm gonna hold on to you, and I'm never gonna let you go." Right then I knew that I would never feel more loved or more known.  Look, I know it's small.  I know it's a really small moment.  It's it's not even a good story.

SSwarek

  That was a pretty good story.

  I love you.  I love you.  You're my story.

[at McNally's insistence, Swarek finally tells her about why his father is in prison]

SSwarek

  More than you wanted to hear? 

  No.  You are nothing like that man.  And if you ever doubt it, you just need to turn around and ask me.

  Well, I can't believe it.  It's Swarek, the traitor.  I still can't believe that you chose a woman over sports.

SSwarek

  Yeah, but not just any woman.

  I just want to go home.  I want to get into PJ's and sit on the couch and be completely boring with you.

SSwarek

  I got news for you.  You ain't never gonna be completely boring.

SSwarek

  I thought couples were supposed to, uh, fight when they plan weddings.

  Yeah, what's there to fight about?  I mean, Oliver's back.  Life is weird.  I remain grateful.

SSwarek

  Andrea Grace McNally as my lawfully wedded wife to love and to cherish to embrace and to set free.  You took a broken man and you made him whole.  And each day, I will be grateful.  I am grateful for everything you've given to me.  So, now I take you my friend, my best friend, my partner, and the love of my life for better or for worse, in sickness and in health, for now, forever, for always.

  [sniffles]  I had the greatest vows ever.  And I can't find them.  [audience chuckles]  So…here I am looking at you.  And this is what I know.  I have loved you since the moment I saw you.  Loved you and feared you.  Well, not you, but this.  [sniffles]  I have been so terrified to love this profoundly.  But not anymore.  For good and for bad for great and for hard for dreams And the truth behind the dreams I am here.  I am yours.  Sam Swarek, I choose you.  I promise to honor you and cherish you.  And while I will not obey you, per se [both chuckle]  I will always hear you.  And I will keep loving you one moment after another one epiphany at a time.
