The Good Guys2010
Dan Stark:
Your ex-girlfriend is setting you up with her friend? I can see where this is going?
Jack Bailey:
Oh, yeah? Where's that exactly?
Dan Stark:
Straight to the hot tub. You, Liz and her friend.
Jack Bailey:
Yeah, I don't think that's ever going to happen.
Dan Stark:
Well, don't be so sure about that. I ever tell you about the time that me and Frank saved a bunch of NBA cheerleaders from a burning car?
Jack Bailey:
Yes, and you diagrammed it for me on a bar napkin, twice. Listen, can we just do some work?
Dan Stark:
Yeah, what do we got?
Jack Bailey:
Code 14B, East Dallas. Burglary of a coin-operated device. We're literally going after a candy burglar.
Dan Stark:
It's the broken-door theory. They were talking about it on this cop show I was watching. The one with the, uh, the leprechaun who never takes his sunglasses off.
Jack Bailey:
No, I think you mean the broken-window theory.
Dan Stark:
No, no, no, no. The idea is, is that you got to stop the small crimes before they become the big crimes. That's why it's called the broken-door theory, because it's a doorway to them. What we do here, it's, it's important.
Jack Bailey:
No, it is the broken-window theory, right? Nowhere in that theory does it state that two detectives should run around investigating victimless crimes.
Dan Stark:
There's always a victim. You just got to look behind the broken door.
