    Mike Norris : Please!

    [Referring that Andy is in the station] 

    Mike Norris : I don't know how to tell you this Miss Barclay.

    Karen Barclay : Tell me what?

  • Mike Norris : Give it up, Ray. It's over.

  • Mike Norris : [grills Peddler after saving Karen]  All right. Now, you want to answer the lady's question now, huh? Where'd you get the doll from?

    Peddler : I don't know nothing about no doll!

    Mike Norris : You're not gonna know nothing about nothing in a minute, unless you talked to me. Now talk!

    Peddler : A burned-out toy store on Wabash. That's where I got it.

    [Mike pauses in silence] 

    Mike Norris : [throws Peddler away]  Get out of here.

  • Karen Barclay : [arrives at the police station by taxi]  Detective Norris!

    [runs over to Mike] 

    Mike Norris : Mrs. Barclay, what are you doing back here?

    Karen Barclay : Andy was telling the truth. Chucky is alive and he killed Eddie Caputo.

    Mike Norris : What?

    Karen Barclay : I took him home to my apartment and I was about to throw away the box that he came in, when the batteries fell out.

    [produces the batteries to Mike] 

    Karen Barclay : Don't you see? He's been moving and talking for days without any batteries in him!

    Mike Norris : What are you talking about?

    Karen Barclay : How I found out the doll was alive. See, I threatened to throw him into the fireplace, when all of a sudden, he came alive in my hand. I dropped him, and he got up and ran out of the apartment.

    [Mike stares at her for a moment] 

    Mike Norris : Good night, Mrs. Barclay.

    [starts to walk away] 

    Karen Barclay : Wait a minute!

    [grabs Mike by his arm and he turns back to look at her] 

    Karen Barclay : I am telling the truth. He killed Maggie. He killed Eddie Caputo.

    Mike Norris : Look, Mrs. Barclay. I sympathize with you. I really do. I hated what happened in there today. But lying is not going to help your son!

    Karen Barclay : Lying?

    [pulls up her coat sleeve] 

    Karen Barclay : Does this look like I'm lying?

    [shows Mike the bite mark Chucky gave her on her arm] 

    Mike Norris : How did you get those?

    Karen Barclay : Chucky bit me.

    Mike Norris : [rolls his eyes]  Oh, for God's sake.

    [starts walking away again, but Karen grabs his arm again to make him look at her] 

    Karen Barclay : All right. Don't believe me.

    [runs over to the taxi] 

    Mike Norris : Where you going?

    Karen Barclay : To find Chucky.

    Mike Norris : How you going to do that?

    Karen Barclay : I bought from a peddler where I work. I'll start there.

    [climbs into the taxi] 

    Mike Norris : That isn't a good part of town to be at this time of night.

    [the taxi drives off] 

    Mike Norris : [yells after Karen as the taxi pulls away]  Mrs. Barclay, do you hear me? You don't want to go there at this time of night!

    [watches the taxi drive off in the distance] 

    Mike Norris : [rolls his eyes]  God damn it.

    [walks to his car] 

  • Mike Norris : [grabs the Peddler as he attempted to rape Karen]  Pig!

    [knees him in the crotch] 

    Homeless Person : Christ! He's a cop!

    [Mike spins round and points his gun at the other homeless people] 

    Mike Norris : All right. What about the rest of you? You wanna party too?

    [the other homeless people fled]
