Sam Swarek quotes from Rookie Blue

Andy McNally

  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.

Sam Swarek

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

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

McNally

  Okay, which empty building? 

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

I don't know, Sam. I guess I just thought maybe this could be an opportunity for you to be open.

Sam Swarek

Open to what?

[sighs] To us, to family.

Sam

You crazy? [chuckles]

[sighs and chuckles in resignation] Oh, man, can you ever hold a grudge.

Sam

You know, you ended up with the forgiveness gene. I only got the backbone gene. Your ability to tolerate men like him is, um well, it's amazing is what it is.

Get over it, Sam! He's our father.

Sam

Who art in heaven. See? I do know a prayer.

Sam Swarek

  Sitting here, looking at you, and I see your sad, angry old face, and I realize I'm free.  And I'm not gonna waste one more emotion on you.

  What is this?  Your "I forgive you" speech?  It's pretty lame.  Just listen to me, okay?  I do not forgive you. 

Sam

  You don't have to, 'cause I never felt guilty for one second. 

  You deserved everything you got from me.  Do you hear me on that? 

Sam

  [deadpan]  I forgive you, pop.

  How sweet.  Just get the hell out of here.
