- Lou: Joe, I don't figure what you're getting at. When I broke down the door, there was nobody in Ryan's bedroom except Lucas Hume.
- Joe Mannix: You didn't see the door to the hallway close, and you didn't see a woman?
- Lou: [scoffs] What woman? There's no girl in Ryan's life except Linda Cole. Everybody in town knows that.
- Joe Mannix: Lou, there *was* another woman.
- Lou: I wouldn't believe it if you showed me movies. When we went to dinner after the court hearing, Ryan, Ham, Linda Cole and me, the cigarette girl smiled at Ryan. I thought Linda was gonna tear her apart.
- Joe Mannix: Suppose she didn't know about the other woman?
- Lou: Not a chance. Any girl came within five feet of Ryan, Linda would've known it. Look, Joe, I'm in enough trouble with the department already for letting Ryan get killed.
- Joe Mannix: They can't blame you for that.
- Lou: Tell that to the commissioner.
- Joe Mannix: Thanks, Lou.
