“Monsters” quotes from Third Watch

Yokas (to Fred): I'm not doing this because I'm trying to prove to the city that they were wrong about me, or because I'm worried about Cruz knocking me out of the box. I'm doing this because I can help people. Defenseless people like that little girl. True victims. And I can make it better for them. I mean, what would you expect me to do, turn my back on them?

Fred: Like you did us?

Mann: Besides Boscorelli, Yokas and Cruz of the 55th, Sergeant Wynn and Dombroski of Narcotics. I want them all dead before they put my Joey in the ground tomorrow.

Jelly (to Swersky): Something wrong?

Swersky: Is that a new suit?

Jelly: Yeah.

Swersky: You're wearing a new suit?

Jelly: So?

Swersky: Looks expensive.

Jelly: You don't think I can afford a suit?

Swersky: No, I didn't think you had the taste.

Cruz (when Yoshi decides to skip the raid to go to the wake): You're gonna leave your partner hanging?

Yoshi: My partner?

Cruz: Glenn's back.

Yoshi: He is?

Cruz: Yeah, he's getting his gear.

Yoshi: He wasn't supposed to be back until next week.

Cruz: Yeah, well, uh, I guess he's dedicated to the mission, unlike some people I know.

Yoshi: Maybe you should just call this one off, huh? Go to the wake, too.

Cruz: First of all, most of the third watch is gonna be there. Somebody's gotta stay back and watch the shop. Second, I don't call off a raid like this for anyone. Or anything. Third, I wasn't invited.

Carlos: I was thinking that it would probably help you to switch it up some.

Grace: Is that so?

Carlos: Vary the experience.

Levine: Watching Carlos scream at other drivers all night can really help your résumé.

Carlos: They're idiots.

Mann (about his son): He had a nightmare when he was five. A monster was chasing him. I said there was no such thing. He fell asleep in my arms. I held him there, looking down at his face. I fell in love with him that night.

Butler: Well, that's a happy memory.

Mann: But the night I fell in love with my son, I lied to him.

Butler: Sir?

Mann: There are monsters.

Grace: God, when does anything ever happen around here?

Kim: Oh, haven't you been doing this long enough to know you don't say things like that?

Grace: I am gonna jump out of my skin.

Kim: Oh, I'm sorry, Grace. You want me to run someone over so you can go out and patch them up?

Grace (to Kim): You ever pull that stick out of your ass?

Kim: Excuse me?

Grace: Just curious.

Carlos: "Watching Carlos yell at other drivers is good for your résumé"?

Levine: Oh, come on.

Carlos: Ha ha. What? What? Are you jealous or something? Huh?

Levine: You have to be kidding me.

Levine (to Carlos): You know what? You're right. That's what keeps Grace from jumping all over you.

Carlos: So stop it, all right?

Levine: No way is it that stupid haircut or the disgusting way you lick your lips when you're talking to her, or the way you never look higher than her chest or lower than her ass, or just your general creepiness you get whenever you're around any woman. That slimy look you get in your eyes like we're all just hunks of meat in a deli display case and you haven't eaten in years. That is all very attractive. In fact, I'm sure that you're the man Grace Foster's been looking for all her life.

Carlos: I don't have a stupid haircut.

Sully: What the hell happened?

Davis: It was a car.

Sully: A car?

Monroe: Yeah, a car came through the building.

Sully: I got hit by a car inside?

Grace (about performing the procedure on Rose, Bosco's mother): She was dying!

Dr. Fields: So, perform a surgical procedure?

Grace: Look, she wasn't breathing, there was a bomb. I had to make a snap decision.

Dr. Fields: Here's my decision: I'm gonna make sure you never work on the street again. You got that? Never.

Levine: I've never known Kim to be afraid of anything.

Kim: I wasn't afraid.

Carlos: Well, if you were, it's okay…

Kim: I'm pregnant!

Levine: Congratulations.

Butler (to Mann): Sir, uh, there's a... a problem. The bomb at the piers, we got both of the Narcotics cops, Wynn and Dombrowski. Apparently there aren't even bodies left.

Mann: That doesn't sound like much of a problem.

Butler: No, sir. Mann: What is the problem?

Butler: The other cops: Cruz, at the raid. I understand she survived. And the funeral home, our, uh, agent. Either the bomb didn't go off or the driver never hit the button.
