Captain Jack Wander:
[after Ludlow tears down his wall] This is my power. This is my crown. I'm the king of secrets, Tom. I know which city councilmen is doing lines. I know who likes boys, I know who's selling contracts, I know who beat his wife. I own them, even the chief. He's in my pocket, Tom. How do you think I've been able to protect you all these years? What do you think is it you're doing? All these missions. How do you think you're able to touch the untouchables? I'm going to be chief. I will be chief! I will be mayor! This is our world, Tom! So let's take it!

Tom Ludlow:
Is that why you put a hit on Washington? Why you tried to kill me? So you can keep stuffing money in your wall?

Captain Jack Wander:
But this is our money. The unit's. Who do you think paid for Silky's defense, through all those law suits? Who's going to pay for your retirement? I'm just correcting a flaw in the system, Tom. This is about cops helping cops. And if a teacher, or a fireman, could do it, they would do it too.

Tom Ludlow:
What happened to just locking up bad people?

Captain Jack Wander:
We're all bad, Tom.

Tom Ludlow:
You were my best friend.

Captain Jack Wander:
You were family.
