Gerry Boyle
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: There were gay lads in the IRA?
- Colum Hennessey: Mmm... one or two.
- [Shrugs]
- Colum Hennessey: It was the only way we could successfully infiltrate the MI5.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: Now I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, these men are armed and dangerous, and you being an FBI agent you're more used to shooting at unarmed women and children...
- FBI agent Wendell Everett: Oh, fuck you, Sergeant!
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: Are the lights growing dim?
- Liam O'Leary: Don't mock me.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: It's good enough for ya.
- Liam O'Leary: There's so many... so many things I wanted to do.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: Like what for fuck's sake? Running with the bulls at Pamplona?
- Garda Aidan McBride: I'm on it sarge.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: "I'm on it Sarge." He thinks he's in fuckin' Detroit.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: What are you reading?
- Eileen Boyle: Oh.
- [Shows Oblomov by Ivan Goncharov]
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: Never got into the Russians. They take too long getting to the fecking point.
- Eileen Boyle: Not even Dostoevsky, no?
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: Come on now, he was the main offender.
- Francis Sheehy: Who was up there firing that cannon?
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: The FBI lad, probably hadn't had this much fun since they burned all those kids up in Waco.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: This is a Gaelic speaking region. Did they not teach you that at Langley?
- FBI agent Wendell Everett: No, they did not teach us that at Langley. For the simple fact that Langley is the CIA, you idiot, not the FBI!
- Garda Aidan McBride: [Sergent Boyle is stroking the crotch of the dead victim] I don't think that's appropriate.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: Why don't you fuck off to America with your appropriate, fuckin' Barrack Obama.
- Gabriela McBride: He's gay. Like when one man put's his...
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: I'm familiar with the mechanics of it, yea.
- FBI agent Wendell Everett: You have anybody you want me to call?
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: Nah, I don't have anybody. Just pin a medal on my body like those boys coming home from Iraq.
- FBI agent Wendell Everett: Fuck you again Sergeant.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: You've taken' somethin'.
- Eugene Moloney: I have not.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: You've taken somethin'. You didn't even act surprised, for fuck sake!
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: [answering the door] Ah, listen, I think there's been a mix-up. You've the wrong night.
- Gabriela McBride: I'm sorry?
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: You're from the agency?
- Gabriela McBride: No. My husband is missing.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: Oh, I'm sorry. Come in, come in.
- [realizing he has no pants on]
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: I'll just slip into something a little less comfortable.
- FBI agent Wendell Everett: [Sergeant Boyle and FBI agent Wendell are driving at night. Boyle asks a question in a friendly manner, idle chat as getting to know each other. FBI agent answers] Two boys. Stocken is five years old and Hughie has just turned three months old. I've got a picture of them.
- FBI agent Wendell Everett, Sergeant Gerry Boyle: [Boyle interrupts quickly] Don't want to see it.
- FBI agent Wendell Everett: [agent seems confused] Excuse me?
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: [straight faced copper explains] I don't want to see it. Babies all look the same. The only time a baby doesn't look like every other baby is when it's a really ugly baby. So unless you're about to show me a photo of a really ugly baby then I don't want to see it.
- FBI agent Wendell Everett: That's pretty fucking rude.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: Maybe it is maybe it isn't.
- Sinead Mulligan: Now it can be revealed. I have very small breasts.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: That's okay, I have a very small penis.
- Sergeant Gerry Boyle: It's not as if you're that hard to please.
- Eileen Boyle: Yeah, that's what they said to me at the orgy.
