Custody (2009)

David Paetkau: Constable Sam Braddock

Quotes 

• Sam Braddock : Like they're going to let him have the kids back after this.

  Kevin 'Wordy' Wordsworth : Custody fights - they get pretty primal. Right now he's all tunnel vision and short-term thinking.

  Sam Braddock : Well, there's primal and there's just plain crazy.

  Leah Kerns : I do crazy-ass stuff to save other people's kids. Makes sense to me.

• Gregory Parker : We go in hard.

  Ed Lane : [on radio]  Okay, here's the plan: Sam, window entry; Leah, Wordy, through the door with me. Wordy, you're on ram. Leah, you're on D-D's.

  Leah Kerns : I can do the window, Ed.

  Ed Lane : What's that?

  Leah Kerns : I've got a lot of experience on that. You know, burning buildings and all.

  Ed Lane : Excuse me?

  Leah Kerns : [sees Sam smiling and shaking his head at her]  Right. Copy that. I'm on D-D's.

  Ed Lane : Good. Questions. I'm on my way up. Get into position.

  Leah Kerns : Guess that was a mistake?

  Sam Braddock : [quoting what Ed told him when he was the rookie]  When you're the democratically elected team leader, you get to make autocratic decisions.

• Sam Braddock : [on radio in vehicle next to Jules after learning Jason took the children]  Boss, we have a situation. Uniforms report Jason Wallace wasn't at home. Neighbors saw him leave.

  Gregory Parker : What about the kids?

  Jules Callaghan : Unconfirmed, but uh, we found juice boxes.

  Sam Braddock : Could be his.

  Jules Callaghan : Spotty Leopard Jungle Nectar?

• Gregory Parker : Helen, listen to me. You haven't hurt anyone. You haven't threatened anyone, and that's good. It means you'll be with your kids again sooner rather than later. But if you raise that gun right now, everything changes. So please, please just put the gun down.

  Sam Braddock : [pointing his gun at Helen - whispering to himself]  Don't you dare. Don't make me go there.
