- Captain Sharon Raydor: Knowing and understanding your rights as I've explained them to you, are you willing, Mr. Kretchner, to answer a few questions without an attorney preset?
- Edward 'Teddy' Kretchner: Eat me.
- Captain Sharon Raydor: Is that "eat me" as in "I wanna talk" or "eat me" as in "I'm unwilling to cooperate?"
- Brenda Leigh Johnson: [to Capt. Raydor] I'm not goin' anywhere with you. I can't stop FID from interfering, but if you wanna be involved, you're gonna have to follow me.
- Captain Sharon Raydor: Officers Stern and Duran have been completely exonerated.
- Brenda Leigh Johnson: And because of the way Force Investigation Division operates, I'll be investigation' the murder of more good cops just like them.
- Captain Sharon Raydor: Excuse me?
- Brenda Leigh Johnson: When officers are shot and killed in the line of duty, they're investigated by me; when they shoot back, they're investigated by you. That means that they'll think twice before defending themselves. That hesitation will mean that more good cops will die, and I have to ask: Have you ever considered what your principles cost?
- Captain Sharon Raydor: Seventy million dollars. That was the settlement in the Rampart case. One hundred - that's how many convictions were overturned due to renegade policing and lack of oversight in one division alone, not to mention the loss of trust the LAPD needs to remain effective.
- Brenda Leigh Johnson: [taking it in] There has to be a better way.
- Captain Sharon Raydor: Well... until then, you've got me.
