Samantha Spade quotes from Without a Trace

Danny

[to a suspect] That's 100 points for lying to a federal officer.

Samantha

Don't stop now, you almost have enough for the dinette set.

Danny

I gotta tell you, I don't understand why anyone would come all the way out here just to get in shape. I got 19 gyms a block away from my apartment...

Samantha

You also have three Gentleman's Clubs within walking distance.

Danny

Yes. I like a little variety in my workout.

Samantha

You train every waking hour, you get beat in the head for a living, all the money you win gets stolen by some corrupt manager, and the benefits are what? Getting to wear satin shorts to work?

Danny

Don't knock it 'til you try it.

Samantha

Do yourself a favor: don't get shot. It's not all it's cracked up to be.

Martin

I'll try my best.

Samantha

The kids are alright?

Martin

That's what Roger Daltry says.

Samantha

You know how you said we should get a drink sometime?

Martin

Yeah.

Samantha

I could really use a drink.

Martin

Well, nothing worse than a beautiful woman drinking alone.

Martin

He's probably just protecting his kids.

Samantha

Yeah, remind me not to have any.

Martin

They don't all turn out to be psychopathic kidnappers, you know.

Samantha

Let me guess--2.2, white picket fence, golden retriever.

Martin

Yeah, maybe. Something like that.

Samantha

Not for me. Not in this world.

[To Martin, regarding Samantha] Is this your girlfriend?

Samantha

I'm his partner.

You're a lot better looking than his last one.

Samantha

[regarding a golf cart] I'm driving.

Martin

No, I've seen you drive.

Samantha

I'm driving.

Martin

[grumbles] Oh, where's the airbag?

Samantha

I mean, this woman spends less than I do.

Martin

You need to get out more often.

Samantha

Yeah, don't remind me.

Martin

Yeah. Well, I guess old feelings die hard.

Samantha

They don't die. They just fade, and then you feel bad that they faded...because you wonder...you wonder what they meant when you had them.

Martin

Well, I guess if they didn't fade, there...there wouldn't be room for new ones.

Samantha

No, I guess there wouldn't.

Samantha

Damn, you are good.

Martin

[smiles] You just noticed?

Samantha

Well, you just got your head handed to you.

Martin

Wouldn't be the first time.

Samantha

I guess some things around here won't change to much, huh?

Martin

I was thinking some things will though.

Samantha

What do you mean?

Martin

I mean you and me....We sort of got interrupted this morning.

Samantha

Yeah, we did.

Martin

I'll walk out ahead of you.

You're not, like, men in black?

Samantha

The movie?

Martin

You mean the government-alien conspiracy?

Samantha

[to Martin] Wait, what conspiracy?

Martin

Well, it's basically a pact between the gray aliens and the secret rebel faction of the government intent on destroying the human race.

Samantha

[amused] Really?

Martin

[serious] Yes.

Samantha

Wow, you should be in law enforcement.

Martin

I hear the hours are terrible.

Samantha

Yeah, but the benefits are pretty good.
