Blue Bloods, Season 1

Sgt. Renzulli:
Hey, college boy, tell your brother the first rule of riding in my car.

Det. Reagan:
Jamie, tell your boss I know Brooklyn better than a Manhattan cop.

Officer Reagan:
This is me, keeping my mouth shut.

Det. Curatola:
You enjoying yourself, Reagan?

Det. Reagan:
How could I not be? Come on. We just took a statement from a six-four transsexual escort who thinks her Labradoodle was dognapped by her shrink. How can I not be having fun right now?

Det. Reagan:
This is the New York that I love-- the one you never see on a postcard.

Det. Curatola:
Now, there's an untapped market; tranny hooker postcards.

Det. Curatola:
Well, listen, here's what we're gonna do; We're gonna figure out who did this, and we're gonna string him up by his family jewels. It's not gonna bring her back, but it's gonna make you feel better.

Comm. Reagan:
Nothing undermines our way of life more than the taking of it.

Frank:
(speaking to Danny and Jackie about the car bomb and its ties to the Russian mob) I want Grushenko for this. They say his people have a code of silence. What they really have is a code of betrayal. That's how we got the brigades the first time and that's how we'll finish them now.

Chief Winston:
Yes, sir.

Frank:
No one's turning my city into Baghdad.

Erin:
If anyone's going to punch my ex out it's going to be me.

Frank:
I wouldn't mind being there to see that.

Renzulli:
Lots of cops burn themselves out running down every half assed lead like it's the French Connection but never learning the secret to being a good cop.

Jamie:
What's that, extra mayo?

Renzulli:
I make the jokes around here, rookie.

Jamie:
All right.

Renzulli:
I'm talking about the art of doing nothing.

Jamie:
Amazing you don't have your own command by now.

Renzulli:
I'm serious. NYPD have spent millions of dollars of hours and manpower setting up stings and takedowns, but if they just taught more cops the art of observing

Jamie:
For what, nannies and skateboarders?

Renzulli:
Well, for instance, that yupster over there. The Mandles, 11 o'clock. What do you think he's doing?

Jamie:
He's reading the newspaper.

Renzulli:
No. That's what he wants his wife to think. What he's really doing is checking out those blondes doing tai chi.

Jamie:
We can arrest him for having impure thoughts.

Renzulli:
Okay, wise ass. See that?

Jamie:
What?

Renzulli:
The guy in the suit. Look at him. See him touching his hip like he's looking for something?

Jamie:
Checking his wallet.

Renzulli:
You wear your wallet on your hip? Huh? Guy's got a gun, Reagan.

Jamie:
He does? Well, let's go toss him.

Renzulli:
No.

Jamie:
Why not? What, a gun collar? You crazy? Why not?

Renzulli:
Because he's a cop, Reagan. Mike Respoli, works out of the 2-5. Plays on my softball team, center field. Okay, so I knew, but you didn't.

Danny:
Where you going? Come here.

Vincent:
Are you arresting me? What did I do?

Danny:
Shut up. Hands in front.

Vincent:
I didn't do anything.

Danny:
That why you jumped out a window? Your car was at the scene of a rape last night.

Vincent:
Rape? I didn't rape anybody. I was at the Yankee game.

Danny:
Good, we'll get Jeter on the horn and find out.

Danny:
I'm really liking the diplomat's kid for this.

Gormley:
Well, right now your case is weaker than the Mets bullpen.

Danny:
What do you mean?

Gormley:
You got a parking sticker on a car, you got a rough sketch and you got a suspect with diplomatic immunity, which, as you know, is absolute.

Danny:
It's not my fault I can't talk to the kid.

Gormley:
Gotta take it up with 1 PP. They just called down. The commissioner has this.

Danny:
Look, if I can get in this kid's apartment.

Gormley:
The commissioner has this.

Frank:
I think you're stuck with the role of bad cop.

Erin:
Which is ironic since I'm the only one in the family who isn't.

Jack:
Can we have cotton candy?

Linda:
We'll see

Jack:
We'll see like yes or we'll see like no?

Linda:
We'll see like we'll see.

Danny:
[walks into Allison's hospital room, sees her crying] What's going on here?

Jamie:
She was asking what happened to her boyfriend, I didn't know what to tell her.

Danny:
So you told her?

Jamie:
I didn't know what to say...

Danny:
[Annoyed] Wait outside.

Danny:
[walks out of Allison's hospital room] Nice work kid, our only witness and you gotta turn on the waterworks?

Jamie:
[ashamed] I'm sorry Danny.

Danny:
[glares at him for a second, then loosens up] It's fine. She would have found out eventually anyway. Sometimes you're damned if you do, damned if you don't. I heard about what you did, saving her life. Good job kid.

Danny:
Glad you stopped by. I've been meaning to give you these since I heard you got assigned the the twelfth.

Jamie:
What is it?

Danny:
Hold on. I'm going to show you. [goes to locker] You can always use an extra pair of collar brass.

Jamie:
Thanks Danny.

Danny:
On the other hand, you wanna carry something useful? You ever seen a slapper before? Nothing better in close quarters, take it.

Jamie:
Where did you even get a thing like that?

Danny:
See right there [points to initials]

Jamie:
Are those grandpa's?

Danny:
You didn't think all those things were mine, did you?

Jamie:
Thanks, but no thanks. [hands Danny the item back]

Danny:
Suit yourself. Just keep in mind Bambi, you're not in Cambridge anymore.

Danny:
[Family dinner] Thank you for the blackjack grandpa, and thank you for not using it little brother. It came in very handy.

Jamie:
I just hope it doesn't get you another IA investigation.

Danny:
What did you say?

Jamie:
You heard me.

Danny:
No I didn't hear you, say it again.

Sydney:
Jamie, he's just trying to get a rise out of you.

Jamie:
Yeah well, he got one.

Danny:
Yeah listen to your girlfriend, Jamie. Take it easy.

Jamie:
Well, I will Danny, when you get off my back, okay?

Danny:
Hey, I'm not on your back.

Jamie:
You've been riding me ever since I got out of the academy.

Danny:
You know, when I start riding you, you'll know about it.

Linda:
Easy, kids.

Danny:
[Jamie gets up] Where you going? Hey, sit down.

Jamie:
If you want to talk to me, I'm going outside, okay?

Danny:
Where you going? Sit down.

Jamie:
If you wanna talk about it...

Danny:
Sit down, Harvard.

[Jamie leaves]

Danny:
[sighs] I'll go talk to him.

Frank:
No, I'll talk to him.

Danny:
Hey, you okay?

Jamie:
Yeah, I'm fine.

Danny:
Have you given your statement to anybody?

Jamie:
Yeah, I talked to uh I talked to this guy. [Points at another detective]

Danny:
Jack, he says he gave his statement to this guy over here. [Points her in the other detective's direction, then turns to Jamie] What happened?

Jamie:
Well, you know the uh, the triad, they kidnap illegal immigrants to try and squeeze money out of their families in China right?

Danny:
Yeah yeah it's one of their many upstanding activities, why, what happened?

Jamie:
I think that's what I saw. Two suspects had guns, but when I searched the guy, he didn't have it.

Danny:
Are you sure they had guns?

Jamie:
Yeah yeah he had it, he must have tossed it.

Danny:
A gun's not going to last long on the streets of Chinatown, kid, what else?

Jamie:
There was one other woman, a Chinese woman, she saw the whole thing, perp pushed her up against the wall, she might have had lacerations on her forehead.

Danny:
I've gotta find two Asian women in Chinatown? Now what were you doing down here anyway, you're off duty?

Jamie:
Just walking around, blowing off some steam after my tour.

Danny:
Look, Internal Affairs is going to be up all over you, they're going to want to speak to witnesses, going to know who you were talking to, what you were doing.

Jamie:
I got it, I got it.

Danny:
Right, get your story straight.

Jamie:
All right.

Danny:
[Nods] I'm glad you're all right. [pats Jamie on the cheek]

Jackie:
What's this LuckyStabyKnife.com?

Hugh:
It's my website. It's not a crime. It's ironic.

Jackie:
Or moronic.

Renzuli:
That's not bad, Harvard. A real Dr. Phil moment.

Nicky:
[reading from a fortune cookie] "A mysterious stranger is on his way."

Erin:
No, he's not.

Nicky:
Yes, he is.

Frank:
Your grandpa has 36,000 armed men at his disposal, he's not.

Frank:
If it moves you duct-tape it. If it squeaks you WD40 it. If it's stuck you hit it with a hammer.

Henry:
It's the losses that keep you up at night.

Clerk:
We use that for our accounting.

Danny:
Well, Best Buy's having a sale. Get yourself a new one.

Jack:
What's a greeting card?

Linda:
That's something people used to send before e-cards, Honey.

Renzulli:
But Valentine's Day. That's when I go all out, Kid.

Jamie:
What's all out for you Sarge? Two for one Mondays at The Pig & Whistle?

Danny:
The good son, huh?

Kevin:
There's one in every Irish family.

Danny:
True.

Jamie:
Who sings that?

Renzulli:
It's the Red Hot Sushi.

Jamie:
Let's keep it that way.

Jackie:
So if you're single and unhappy at work you're a suspect for murder.

Danny:
So the Dad kills Betsy and lets the son take the fall for it.

Jackie:
I believe that. The way the guy was looking at me, he's a predator for sure.

Jackie:
This guy's going to miss his maid in Rikers.

Danny:
He may end up being somebody's maid in Rikers.

Danny:
I swear if I have to look at one more businessman with a wheelie getting off an elevator I'm going to eat my gun.

Jackie:
Shoot me first, please. It'd be a mercy killing.

Mayor:
I can't speak for you.

Frank:
Recent history suggests otherwise.

Ray:
Drink, Commissioner?

Frank:
Love one Ray but if I did I'd have to read about being a candidate for Betty Ford in your next column, so no.

Frank:
Family is what makes us strong.

Erin:
Because once he finds out you can't help him anymore, he's going to trade you in like a used car.

Linda:
All she sees is that I still wear the scarlet letter of New York City. The dreaded 718 Staten Island area code.

Frank:
Everything has a cost, even the truth. But the reward for truth is a clear eye and a clear conscience.

Jackie:
Do you Reagans ever take a day off?

Danny:
Not if we can help it.

Frank:
Happy families are alike. Unhappy families are unhappy in their own way.

Nicky:
Who said that?

Frank:
Other than me? Tolstoy.

Nicky:
Well, I'm glad I was born into this family.

Erin:
Luck of the draw, Sweetie.

Frank:
Down these mean streets a man must go who is not himself mean, who is neither tarnished nor afraid. :Henry: Raymond Chandler?

Frank:
(nods) His definition of a hero.

Frank:
We all die son, it's just a question of when.
