Quotes 

• Detective Ed Green : Lieu, you ain't gonna believe this.

  Lt. Anita Van Buren : Her picture's in the damn paper.

  Detective Ed Green : It's a column about her father, Tom Baker. He wrote a book, and it says that she's NYPD.

  Lt. Anita Van Buren : Why didn't anyone catch this and pull her off detail?

  Detective Joe Fontana : It may have been too late anyway. It appeared on page thirty of the late edition.

  Lt. Anita Van Buren : So Ratko pulled the trigger, but this is what got Dana killed.

  Detective Joe Fontana : It's the same as if someone pushed her in front of a damn bus.

  Detective Ed Green : And it was written by Veronica Drake. Now what do you think she got for outing an undercover officer?

  Lt. Anita Van Buren : I'm gonna find out.

• Lieutenant Sullivan : She spent the last year infiltrating an Albanian drug ring. We used heroin money to fund paramilitary groups in Kosovo.

  Detective Joe Fontana : She got over as an Albanian?

  Lieutenant Sullivan : Well, she spent some years in Kosovo as a teen. Her father had an embassy job with the State Department.

  Lt. Anita Van Buren : We should talk to him.

  Lieutenant Sullivan : He's on a flight from London. I'm gonna meet his plane at the airport.

  Lt. Anita Van Buren : Okay.

  Detective Ed Green : [approaching]  Hey. The cell that made the 911 domestic disturbance call was a disposable, so it was probably dumped.

  Lt. Anita Van Buren : Did she ever suggest that the Albanians were onto her?

  Lieutenant Sullivan : No, no, no, no. I'd have pulled her out.

  Lt. Anita Van Buren : Well, that phony call and her hitting the patrol car was not a coincidence. Her cover was blown.

  Lieutenant Sullivan : Then she wasn't aware of it. Dana was no cowboy.

• Detective Ed Green : So somebody shoots her, drags her all the way up there just to throw her back down?

  Detective Joe Fontana : Yeah, and bulls-eyes a squad car.

  Detective Ed Green : That domestic disturbance call was bogus.

  Detective Joe Fontana : I'd like to know who she pissed off.
