The Lineup

Julian:
When you live outside the law, you have to eliminate dishonesty.

Dancer:
[as a dying Julian gasps something unintellible] Say something for the book!

Sandy McLain:
How does it feel to make five G's in one day?

Julian:
Dancer derives no particular feeling from it.

Sandy McLain:
[Sarcastically] Oh, not too much!

Dancer:
[With apparent disdain] I've been watching you. McLean. You've been comin' on big, I don't like that.

Sandy McLain:
[Defensively] Look, I just...

Julian:
Please, we prefer as little conversation as possible from outsiders. Dancer works better that way. You didn't know before - now you do.

Lt. Ben Guthrie:
You know, one thing bothers me though.

Insp. Al Quine:
What's that?

Lt. Ben Guthrie:
Why a well-organized operation would have a junkie as a wheelman.

Insp. Al Quine:
You know, that could be the mistake that nails 'em, Ben. Folsom's full of mistakes.

Lt. Ben Guthrie:
Let's prowl the rest of this place and get out of here.

Insp. Al Quine:
I'm in favor of that!

Lt. Ben Guthrie:
[Sarcastically as he looks around Jenkins' cheap, unkempt apartment] Jenkins certainly had a great spot here for a Halloween party.

Insp. Al Quine:
[Laconically] Yeah, no self-respectin' witch would bring a broom into this trap.

Julian:
[Contemplating not murdering Bradshaw and her daughter] Are you that wise? I hope so for the sake of you both.

Dorothy Bradshaw:
Yes, I'll do whatever you say.

Julian:
I'm personally very pleased with your decision because in my profession there's one thing i dislike and that's hearing someone's last words. [Knowingly to Dancer] You know, famous last words.

Lt. Ben Guthrie:
[Surveying the dead junkie's apartment] Looks like Warner was quite a traveler.

Insp. Al Quine:
[Sardonically] And nothin' like the trip he just took.

Julian:
[Closing steamroom door after being invited in by Warren] Steam!

Julian:
Don't stay in there too long. It opens the pores.

Dancer:
[Chuckling] Heh-heh. That's a yock!

Julian:
[Disdainfully] A yock?

Dancer:
O.K, O.K., That's amusing.

Julian:
Better... nuch better. Yock's a crude word.

Philip Dressler:
Well, it's unfortunate we have to meet under these awful circumstances, I know.

Insp. Al Quine:
[Flatly] We meet a lot of people under unfortunate circumstances, Mr. Dressler.

Sandy McLain:
[Referring to Dancer] I knew a guy like him once.

Julian:
No, you didn't. There's never been a guy like Dancer. He's a wonderful, pure pathological study. He's a psychopath with no inhibitions.

Julian:
Dancer is an addict, an addict with a real big habit.

Sandy McLain:
'H' like in heroin, uh?

Julian:
'H' like in hate.

Julian:
[Surveilling a man at a meet] How do we know thats him?

Sandy McLain:
He's wearing horned rim glasses ain't he? He's wearing a trench coat ain't he, with the collar turned down? No, it's got to be him, because who wears a trench coat with a collar turned down?

Dorothy Bradshaw:
[while being held captive, in distress] What kind of men are you?

Julian:
See, you cry. That's why women have no place in society. Women are weak. Crying's aggressive and so's the law. Ordinary people of your class, you don't understand the criminal's need for violence.

Lt. Ben Guthrie:
[to Asher] I don't know what to think. The whole case doesn't add up.

Dancer:
[Explaining that 'The Man' provoked him to kill him] He pushed me too far!... So I pushed him just far enough.
