Homicide: Life on the Street, Season 4

Bayliss:
I am good Murder Police aren't I, Gee?

Giardello:
Yes, of course.

Bayliss:
I'm standing here thinkin' about Frank, about everything I've learned from him, the past four years.

Giardello:
His technique in the box?

Bayliss:
Yeah, but it's more than that. You know, I've finally got to a place where I understand how he thinks. See, when I find a suspect, I like to get in their brain, and figure out why they would wanna take another person's life. Why? But Frank, well, Frank, all he sees is a dead body. Doesn't matter to him who they were, what they did. He strips away their personality, he makes them all equal in death, because if they have been murdered, they must be avenged. Forward, without any hesitation, without any moral dilemma, his mind's so clear on that Gee, his mind. I just don't know if I'm gonna be as good a detective as I am without Frank.
