Is there anything more depressing than searching basements and garbage cans for missing kids?
Yeah, finding one.
S1 E15Officer Involved
S1 E19Spring Forward, Fall Back
When I have kids, I'm going to have vehicle locators surgically implanted right in their asses.
What, like a baby Lojack?
Yeah, why not? Your kids are definitely worth more than your Buick.
Faith (as she enters an abandoned building): Do you think a scared little two-year-old girl would want to come in here? I mean, I don't want to come in here, and I've got a gun.
Willy Townsend stole a communion chalice from a church. He stole it from a man that was tryin' to help him. Then Father Goodwin refuses to give the bastard up. Instead, he goes to find Willy to tell him he's forgiven and give him another chance. And then what does Willy do to this man? Maybe the only person on the face of this Earth that gives a damn about him? He breaks a three dollar bottle of Thunderbird over his head, and then proceeds to stab this gentle, loving man over and over again with what's left of the broken bottle. Father Goodwin is supposed to believe in the redemptive power of God's love, to forgive Willy. That's his place in this world. You and me? Our job is to see to it that Willie never hurts anybody else again. Ever.
DDoc
You know, every time I think I couldn't possibly have a lower opinion of you, something else pops up and I like you even less.
You really are a smug bastard, you know that?
DDoc
I got to say, I'm ashamed to know you.
S2 E19Walking Wounded
You guys didn't hear about Kim?
What do you mean? What about Kim?
She overdosed.
No way.
Kim was usin' heroin?
No, she did it on purpose. She tried to kill herself. Her son found her.
That poor little boy found her?
Yeah, she's gonna be okay, though.
We should call the guys at 55. See if there's anything that we can do for Kim.
[about Kim] I don't want Joey anywhere near her right now.
CCatherine
If you're gonna be angry, Jimmy, do your son a favor and don't let him see it.
How could she do this to him? He just lost Bobby, who was like a second father.
CCatherine
He only needed a second father because you haven't been there.
What the hell do you know what I've been there for?
CCatherine
Who baby sits? You were staying on her couch, and you never saw anything was wrong.
You see her everyday. Did you? You know, I wasn't supposed to have Joey until Saturday, but I'll trade a few day shifts and I'll pick him up at school tomorrow.
CCatherine
No. You should keep to the regular schedule.
Yeah, well, I'll decide what he needs.
CCatherine
You know, he doesn't need you riding in on your white horse to save him. He's not a fire. You want to be the hero, but as soon as the crisis is over, when things get boring, that's when you lose interest. It's easy being a hero, what's hard is the day to day. And you know what? That's most of his life. Look, if you want what's best for your son, just stick to Saturday. He'll be fine.
How's Joey?
Kim thinks the world stops because she doesn't wanna be in it anymore. It' doesn't.
Jimmy... You know Kim loves Joey. Imagine how much pain you'd have to be in to do something like that.
There's not enough pain in the world.
CCatherine
Jimmy, what are you doin'?
Pickin' up my son and takin' him home.
CCatherine
He's better off with me and you know that.
Catherine, when this all blows over and he wants to come stay a night or two, I'll let you know. Catherine, I appreciate you always being there for him. I know you love him. And I know I haven't always been the father that Joey needs. But I want to be and he is my son. He belongs with his father right now.
S3 E4The Relay
Jimmy (to Kim): There you are. You look good today. Before I forget. (hands Kim an envelope)
What's this? (opens up envelope and reads the papers in it) What?
It wasn't an easy decision for me.
Custody? You want custody?
Keep your voice down.
My voice? What is that your plan? To do this in front of your friends so I don't make a scene?
It's nothing I planned. First time I saw you all day.
Sole custody?!
If something were to happen to me, what would happen to Joey?
He would have his mother.
You're still working things out.
Oh, don't patronize me.
You tried to kill yourself.
It was an accident. If you think that justifies taking away my son you're out of your mind. (throws the papers in his face)
There's other copies.
Yeah, well, you can shove those, too.
S3 E5Adam 55-3
Doc (voiceover): I had dreams, you know? Although hard to remember now, they were always vague at best. I can't say that I really did anything to make them happen though... So after high school and four years at City College in business administration, I got a job selling stereos. Two years of that, I started selling office supplies. But let's be honest, I was bored. Hell, I was bored to death. Even went to an Air Force recruiter, wanted to see what it took to be a pilot. Turns out, it'd take better eye sight. So, I'm walking down the street and I see these medics pulling some poor old lady out from under a bus. They were yelling and covered in blood, and for some reason I thought it looked like fun. For some reason it reminded me of when my grandmother was sick and these paramedics saved her life. And I'm thinkin', you know what, maybe I should check that out. And it has been fun. I got lucky, I found something I was really good at, and lots of people never do. So, 16 years later, here I am... still doing it. You start something, you're just learning and before you know it, you've been there almost half your life. It's who you are, but it doesn't mean that doesn't mean that this is all I ever wanted to be. It doesn't mean that I still don't have dreams.
S3 E6He Said, She Said
DADistrict Attorney
You stopped them?
Swerved across a double yellow.
DADistrict Attorney
So what was their interaction like?
Ordinary, considering she was getting friendly with his johnson.
DADistrict Attorney
Friendly?
Very.
DADistrict Attorney
And she didn't appear to be in distress.
[looking at Faith] Absolutely not.
DADistrict Attorney
Great, my own cops will be the defendant's best witnesses, there's no case.
This is bad.
What makes this different, Faith?! Women cry rape if they're bumped too hard in the subway. How's anybody supposed to take it seriously?
Because we're supposed to figure out the difference! That's our job! What if we left a kid in a car with a rapist?
That did not happen, Faith. You hearin' me? I did not do that.
Not you, we. We.
Didn't happen. Didn't happen.
AAJ
Man, this girl is known. Whores all over the projects then goes to church with her mom. You know what I'm talkin' about? She's like an expert at deception, man. You cannot believe a word. She's trippin'.
So you were entrapped in extramarital sex with a girl who was recently a minor?
AAJ
You never wanted a little somethin' something on the side, Officer?
[to Bosco] Enjoy yourself with Mr. Smooth Talker here. I'm gonna go upstairs and see how the statements are goin'. [walks off]
AAJ
You know what she needs, don't you?
Yep. Yoga.
Why don't we talk about what happened tonight?
SShaquana
I told you what happened. AJ raped me.
So, what? When we stopped you, you don't say anything? 'Cause I gotta say, you had the chance. ... Look, is all this happening because your embarrassed to tell your mom that you had sex with him? Shaquana... It is time to tell the truth. It really wasn't rape, was it? ... Was it?
SShaquana
You can't make me lie. He raped me.
Okay, so after we stopped you...
SShaquana
Not after, it started before. He put his stinkin' thing in my... in my... and then you stopped us.
Well, then why didn't you scream? Why didn't you say anything to us?
SShaquana
I don't know. I was freakin', it was like I couldn't talk, my brain wasn't workin' right. I was watching myself do this stuff but I couldn't feel anything. Then I heard this voice say 'Not God, but Officer something' and I thought... But I couldn't get why he was laughin' at me. I just couldn't get it.
