Homicide: Life on the Street, Season 5

Kellerman:
He stands up for us and where are we for him? Have a beer, right? So we can raise a toast to the son of a bitch because he was an idiot, thinking he could make a difference in the world.

Lewis:
He wasn't an idiot.

Kellerman:
No? All he had to do was go along with the program; just let them sell drugs off the corner, just accept things as they are and he'd still be alive. Your old partner Crosetti - he was an idiot too.

Lewis:
What?

Kellerman:
He let it all get to him.

Lewis:
Why you wanna go there, man? Why you wanna drag Crosetti into this?

Kellerman:
I see certificates of merit hanging in the squadroom. For what? So we can remember what a great guy he was, what a great detective? Does him a lot of good that he's remembered. Just a stupid, pathetic moron is what he was.

Lewis:
Why you wanna talk about Crosetti like that? Why you wanna talk about someone you didn't even know?

Kellerman:
There's the door. You don't wanna hear it, get out.

Lewis:
He was a good man and he was a good detective. You don't know the first thing about him so what gives you the right to talk about someone you don't even know?

Kellerman:
What, he's a mystery?! He kills himself. He tossed his drunk, pill-popping ass in the water and he comes up a floater. He should have eaten his gun.

Lewis:
Mike-

Kellerman:
No! No "Mike"! No more partner, no more friend, none of it! This is done between us!
