- Wallace Boden: I've been asking around to some of the folks who worked with Ramsey when he was with the CFD. The more I learn about the man, the more certain I am that it has to be him. I'm just asking you, what's the best approach here?
- Deputy Commissioner Gloria Hill: If I were you, I'd file an anonymous complaint with the inspector general's office. Then I'd go back to my district and forget the whole thing.
- Wallace Boden: An anonymous complaint won't move the needle. If Don Ramsey is responsible for those illegally stored chemicals, he has to answer for it.
- Deputy Commissioner Gloria Hill: *If* he's responsible. But you have no concrete proof of that.
- Wallace Boden: That's why we need an investigation to find proof.
- Deputy Commissioner Gloria Hill: We're talking about one of the most powerful people in Chicago. A man who can bust us both down to battalion chief with a single phone call. And that's if he wants to go easy on us. Chief, without any hard evidence, you got nothing.
- Wallace Boden: So I'm supposed to just... forget about it?
- Deputy Commissioner Gloria Hill: You don't take a shot at the king unless you can kill him.
- Wallace Boden: Mm.
