- Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: [reading the killer's note] "The spy will dye". D-Y-E. Now, what does that tell you?
- Capt. Harold Dobey: It tells me that the killer's a bad speller.
- Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: I've never seen this side of you before.
- Det. Dave Starsky: The efficient cop?
- Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: No. Stuffed shirt.
- Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: Hey, pal?
- Det. Dave Starsky: [to Huggy Bear] He talkin' to me?
- Huggy Bear: [to Hutch] Are you talkin' to him?
- Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: [to Huggy Bear] Tell him I'm talkin' to him.
- Huggy Bear: [to Starsky] He's talkin' to you.
- Det. Dave Starsky: I heard.
- Det. Dave Starsky: We're supposed to be covering this dancehall where this guy's wiping out these dancehall girls.
- Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: Right.
- Det. Dave Starsky: Well you're not letting him get close enough to the undercover agent who could be our number one pigeon.
- Det. Dave Starsky, Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: Oh that's what this is about?
- Det. Dave Starsky: Yeah. He's still on the loose. You're playing on the killer's time.
- Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: I'm not playing on any killer's time, I was over at Kira's house last night with my eyes wide open on the job.
- Det. Dave Starsky: You're not supposed to be over at Kira's apartment.
- Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: Oh I see. That's what this is all about. You go out with a girl for a week, you think you own her, huh?
- Det. Dave Starsky: One month. But that's not the point. But now that you brought it up, you're supposed to be over at Susan's house.
- Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: Oh.
- Det. Dave Starsky: We had a pre-arranged agreement which you arbitrarily ignored and that is just not professional.
- Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: Don't talk to me about unprofessional. Don't give me that jive. You can't stand a little competition!
- Det. Dave Starsky: Competition? I welcome the competition. Under normal circumstances I wipe the floor with you!
- Det. Dave Starsky: We're tired of being treated like objects. Having our lives determined for us by women.
- Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: Loved for our bodies and not for our minds. After all, you prick us, doth we not bleed?
- Det. Dave Starsky: That's my line.
- Det. Ken 'Hutch' Hutchinson: [to Huggy Bear] Tell him I'm sorry.
- Huggy Bear: [to Starsky] He's sorry.
- Det. Dave Starsky: I heard.
