Julien Lowe quotes from The Shield

Bienvenido a La Vida!

Julien

What's he saying?

Danny

Welcome to the life.

Danny

Where the hell were you last night?

Julien

What do you mean?

Danny

Detective Crowley got shot. I left you a message.

Julien

Yeah, I got it.

Danny

So?

Julien

So...you didn't say anything about me having to come down.

Danny

I shouldn't have to. A fellow officer was dying in that hospital.

Julien

I said a prayer for him.

Danny

A prayer?

Julien

Yeah.

Julien

What? I've been on the job three weeks, I didn't even know that guy.

Danny

Rule number one, he was a cop. That means you knew him.

Danny

[knocking on door] You called the police?

In here.

Danny

Police in the house.

You got here.

Julien

What's wrong ma'am?

Well, my daughter left, and I need my medicine.

Julien

What medicine?

For my arthritis. It's over there.

Danny

You called us for your arthritis medicine?

In the brown bottle over there. hand it to me.

Danny

Ma'am, 911 is for emergencies.

Well, this is an emergency to me.

Danny

[opens the pill bottle] How many?

Two. [stares at Danny]

Danny

What?

Well, would it kill you to get me a glass of water?

Shane

Do you know what "Officer Involved Shooting" means? It means we're all involved.

Julien

I told the truth.

Shane

Hey, when it comes to your partner's career, truth is like grits. You don't serve it up plain, pour the salt on it! God-damn rookies.

Vic

[about Julien's fiancee] She's a beautiful girl.

Julien

Yeah.

Vic

I guess I must have missed something. Last person I saw you kissing was a little more... male. Sure you know what you're doing?

Julien

Yeah.

Vic

In that case, congratulations.

Rawling

[about two missing officers] Anything?

Danny

Canvassed the whole area, there's nothing.

Rawling

Ohh shit.

Julien

Went knocking, half the people weren't answering their door, the other half were sleeping.

Rawling

Let me use your radio. [Danny hands her the radio] Staff, Nine-Tango, I'm Code 6 on Alexandria Circle. Be advised, we have two officers unaccounted for, requesting Attack Alert. All watches will be held over.

Copy that.

Julien

We should notify the families.

Julien

He threw a bottle at the car, cracked the windshield...

Tina

Then he asked if he could smell my sweet spot.

Vic

Even Shane stopped using that line...

Julien

We shouldn't be playing God.

Vic

God creates all men equal. Once they get out of the womb, he starts playing favorites.

[discussing his porn films with Ronnie, Claudette, & Julien; to Julien] You know, if you ever get tired of squashing people's civil rights, I can make you some real money.

Julien

So far this is working out but, if something changes, I'll let you know.
