Deadwood, Season Three

Al Swearengen:
How well do you know the other guy?

Pinkerton:
Who would that be?

Al Swearengen:
That my man Dority killed. The Captain.

Pinkerton:
We served in the 69th in New York.

Al Swearengen:
Was that a mick regiment?

Pinkerton:
Yeah. What were you doing?

Al Swearengen:
Cutting throats.

Pinkerton:
I was asking whose flag you were under.

Al Swearengen:
The famous cocksuckers brigade.

Pinkerton:
Is that so?

Al Swearengen:
Command of the all-whore detachment. Distress you, when my man downed your friend?

Pinkerton:
Let me tell you something, Mr. Swearengen. You don't scare me, and you don't f***ing know what happened with the 69th New York. I will tell you this: I didn't like what happened to Joe Turner. Mr. Hearst came to him and said, "Make it last, even if you gain the upper hand and can kill him." And I think that was halfway selfish of Mr. Hearst, whereas Joe could have killed your man and didn't, and look how it wound up. But that's as much as I feel like saying, and that's neither here nor f***ing there.
