CHCapt. Highland
If he turns up dead, and I can find anything to prove that you knew something that could have saved him, you're gonna wind up an accessory after the fact in his murder.
No, I'm not. I'm not even gonna be a material witness, unless the DA can establish me on preliminary, which he can't. There's no foundation. And he can't get me into cross-examination for the same reason. So... [winks at Highland] thanks for the invitation. I think I'll go fishing.
[Capt. Highland's taken aback, and stunned into silence. He looks at Becker]
He's been around, Captain.
