Quotes
-
Rex Riley : [Discussing the murdered Stephanie Brown] Maybe she was rotten to the core. Who cared?
Inspector Steve Keller : Well, what was rotten about her?
Rex Riley : She was a taker. A real taker.
Detective Lt. Mike Stone : What's a taker?
Rex Riley : Oh, you know, somebody who leads you on and tries to get something out of you. Money, a car, anything. That's it. They just take it and it's "Goodbye, Charlie."

Tim Duran : [Interrogating the sniper] Okay, so I shot her. What does that have to do with you? She didn't lie to you. She lied to me.
Inspector Steve Keller : So you killed her?
Tim Duran : If I had enough ammo, I would've stayed up here forever. Forever!
Detective Lt. Mike Stone : Forever's just about where you're headed for, son.
Tim Duran : No way, baby, no way. Two years in a head farm, eating public chow, and I'm back in circulation. You watch.

Detective Lt. Mike Stone : I can understand why he'd want to quit sales, though. Driving all over town. Knocking on doors. Lousy hours. Taking lip from people who don't wanna be bothered.
Inspector Steve Keller : Sounds kind of familiar.
Detective Lt. Mike Stone : I thought you'd see it.
