[when Hooker accuses Romano's girlfriend, Vince becomes agitated] Shut up, damn it!
There's something wrong, kid. I feel it kicking in my gut. And I think your friend Amy is doing the kicking.
[Romano balls his fists and punches Hooker in the jaw]
S2 E13Too Late for Love
S2 E14The Decoy
Stacy, the day you were born, your father was somewhere on a narcotics stakeout and couldn't be reached. On the first day of your life, I was the first one to hold you. In addition to your experience, I gotta tell ya, I can't let you go out on the street and be the target for some deranged animal.
Sleeping like a pretzel is one thing, but sleeping like a pretzel when a Circus Burger does flip-flops in your belly is beyond the call of duty.
Who said police work was easy?
Hooker, the decoy situation. Sometimes it can't be ideal, but I think they're doing the right thing.
That's the problem around here, Junior. Too many people who don't know are doing the thinking.
Bartender, I'm looking for Carl Leland. I heard he hangs out here.
BBartender
We serve drinks here, not information. You want a drink?
I want Carl Leland.
BBartender
Buzz off, cop.
S2 E15The Mumbler
KCKatie Coats
[addressing her much older brother] That bag's full of trouble for us, isn't it, Larry?
I'll bet you're a mumbler. That what they call you when if you have more to say to your pigeons than to people.
KCKatie Coats
How do you know that?
Sometimes, mumblers grow up and become cops.
S2 E16Vengeance Is Mine
Sucker almost had me. I owe you one, Hooker.
I recall saying the same thing to you 17 years ago. And with your retirement coming up, I didn't think I'd get a chance to get even.
Excuse me, Mr. Foster?
LFLarry Foster
Yes, what is it?
I'm Sergeant Hooker. You're client's gonna need a new attorney. You're going to jail.
[Hooker and Romano fasten handcuffs around Foster's wrists]
For the rape of Valerie McGuire.
LFLarry Foster
Sergeant, you're taking a dangerous step towards a very serious litigation here. I think you better ask yourself, do I look like a rapist?
You tell me what a rapist looks like... and I'll show you what a cop's daughter looks like... after she's been raped.
Hooker, I'm a father trying to protect daughters, like yours.
And I'm a friend, trying to protect you from yourself. You're up to your armpits in emotion. You're about to put everything you've worked for on the line.
This character Foster plays the law like a violin, and he'll be all over this department if you harass him.
Don't throw the law up to me, Captain. I've worked my whole life for the law. Now, when I need help, I can't get it because of scum like Foster punching to many holes through it.
[after unpacking the gift that comes with opening a new bank account] This is a teddy bear. I'm a tough policeman.
S2 E17Sweet Sixteen and Dead
Hooker, what the Colonel did for chicken, Romano will do for cookies.
GHGordie Hobbs
You said that this was an accident. Now, if this was an accident, how come the police are involved?
'Cause it was a man-made accident and I wanna nail that man.
GHGordie Hobbs
I just hate leaving Eddie Pearl here alive.
Hey Gordie, give in to that feeling, and the Boulevard poison that took Kelly will make a victim out of you, too, if you don't end up back in jail first.
