S3 E10Culture Shock

Chief Johnson, is it true that you have a camcorder in evidence belonging to Yi Chu, Deputy Undersecretary of Agricultural Affairs for the Peoples Republic of China?

Well, I knew it belonged to a Yi Chu, I didn't know it belonged to the Yi Chu.

Mr. Chu says he called repeatedly and told you that he borrowed the camera from his boss, and he's afraid to return to China without it.

Is he asking for asylum?

This may surprise you, but in some cultures, supervisors are still shown a modicum of respect and employees actually try to please the boss! So lose the attitude and see this guy gets his damn camera back! I don't need any more grief from the Chinese consul and I definitely don't need it from you! Please tell me I did not just say all that in front of your parents!

S3 E11Lover's Leap

There's a female investigator working for an intelligence agency who was in a relationship who you seduced into coming to Los Angeles on a regular basis. It all sounds so familiar, and yet I'm surprised.

Do you want to talk about this...in detail?

Just drop it.

Because we can.

Drop it, I said. And tell me what else you know about the victim that can help me.

Maggie was honest. Except about me with her husband, she was an honest person. She was a relentless investigator. She believed in what she was doing. Her personal life may have been a bit of a mess, but she was extremely professional. And she was stubborn when she was right, which she almost always was.

Thanks.

S3 E12Til Death Do Us Part (Part I)

[Fritz is putting lights on a Christmas tree, while Brenda is sitting on the couch, unwinding the lights and sulking]

Brenda, is something wrong?

This is ridiculous.

Our real estate agent said it would help sell the house, give it a "home for the holidays" vibe. And we both know Gary doesn't lie.

[scoffs] Gary. He hasn't brought us an offer in three months, suddenly he calls out of the blue and we're supposed to hop to? Because he's got "the buyer", again?

Brenda, if you don't wanna show the house, just say so.

I want to show the house, I just don't wanna waste the day decorating it for one couple!

Is it really so terrible to have the house feeling a little festive?

I do not like it when I am ordered to be festive!

You have a tough job. You have to make hard decisions. And I guess if I would trust anybody to make hard decisions, it'd be my little girl.

S3 E14Next of Kin (Part I)

Family Law Attorney Real Property Lien. FLARPL.

Sounds like something you would get at a Dairy Queen. In India.

Well, its a law permitting asshole divorce lawyers to put a lien on a clients home to ensure payment.

Your second wife?

[Provenza holds up four fingers]

S3 E15Next of Kin (Part II)

You see, being a alcoholic isn't such a bad thing as long as you don't pour yourself a drink.

Apparently you put the house on the market.

Well, you have to do that to sell it, apparently. Where we'll go after that, I have no idea, since we haven't been able to find the thing we're looking for and honestly the idea of strangers walking around my stuff bothers the living daylights out of me. And I thought that I said we would wait and sell this place after we found something else and were moved out, but I guess that's not what I said.

I'm sorry we fought. I'm sorry I didn't tell you about the drinking, and I'm sorry. I'm sorry I said all that about you.

No, no. I'm not always straightforward. You were right about that. I don't always know what to say, so I say the thing I know the other person wants to hear.

It's an occupational hazard.

And I miss chocolate so much.

For keeping the team together despite some pretty hefty pressure, and for trusting her instincts, about us too, by the way, and for how she always works so hard to get her man: I say, Hail to the Chief.

AAll

To the Chief!
