[Agent Jackson knocks Provenza over]
Lieutenant, are you all right?
Oh, I don't know. I think I broke something!
I am shocked that you would assault an old man without provocation!...Sergeant Gabriel, check and see if a paramedic can come down here and take a look at Lieutenant Provenza. [To Provenza] Are you ok?
Old man?
This is L.A. The sun shines 329 days a year. That squint is not working for me. [Hands Brenda a bag, in which she finds two pairs of sunglasses]
[Puts on a pair] This was completely unnecessary.
You're welcome.
[Brenda smiles]
We're not going to get in anybody's way, trust me.
I stopped believing boys who said "trust me" when I was sixteen.
Chief Pope, I need a word.
E-mail it to me.
[To Provenza] Oh, and I told the FBI that you hurt your wrist, so have that bandaged up before they get here.
[On the phone with Fritz] I'm going to have to deal with some pompous, arrogant oaf who doesn't know thing one about investigating a murder. You wouldn't happen to know who they're sending over, would you?
[walking into Brenda's office talking on his cell phone] Yeah. I do.
[commenting on Brenda's team] They're not the friendliest group I've ever met with.
Well, they're a little slow to warm up.
What is it you need? Another pair of hands?
Yeah.
I'll go.
Um, I mean, that'd be great, only...
Only what?
Well, sir, um, Lt. Flynn is one of our best guys here at the department, but he and, um...
The bitch hates my guts.
I Googled it. [To Fritz] It's an internet thing.
Yeah, I know what Google is, Lieutenant. It's the FBI that has a hard time getting online, not me.
Alright, we need to get some units over to this Crag Sherman's house right away. I'll call over to see if I can't get us FBI backup.
Oh. Didn't I tell you? We picked him up fifteen minutes ago.
Hey, you know what's funny?
What?
She can't stand me. I'm doing everything I can to make her life miserable; and here you are - you've tried to help her out wherever you could, and she treats us both exactly the same. Heh.
You must be upset.
You know what would make me upset? Is if this whole working together thing screwed up our whole other thing.
