Capt. Barney Miller : Alright. I'll see what I can do ? I won't book, but I am going to have to hold you... Just a police expression.Harris, hold that RAP sheet on Marty, we're going to negotiate a settlement out of court
Det. Ron Harris : Keep him on ice
Capt. Barney Miller : Yeah, Temporarily

Det. Sgt. Chano Amenguale : Barney, look at this, I got $325 from Fish, $524 from Wojo, $475 from Harris, $373 from Yemana, $ 950 from me, and $40 from Petty Cash. Now that all adds up to $2,686
Alan Schuster : 87
Det. Sgt. Chano Amenguale : He's right, thanks
Alan Schuster : Don't mention it
Det. Sgt. Chano Amenguale : Anyway, Barney, all we need $ 813 more, how about it, huh ?
Capt. Barney Miller : You really want to make this bust ?
Det. Sgt. Chano Amenguale : Barney, this guy pushes to kids in school, man
Capt. Barney Miller : Alright, come on in, I'll give you a check.
Det. Sgt. Chano Amenguale : Ha, Ha !, Fantastic, man !, I'll tell you what am going to do. I'm going to the bank and I'm going to cash these checks and I'm going to have your money back by midnight

Det. Stan 'Wojo' Wojciehowicz : [after their sandwiches are dropped off] Mr Schuster, I ordered -- I ordered an extra sandwich, a corned beef and turkey
Alan Schuster : I wouldn't touch it
Det. Stan 'Wojo' Wojciehowicz : They're great sandwiches
Alan Schuster : Huh ? That's what they told Kleineman the Auditor, when they had him stashed in that hotel in Chicago. Scrambled eggs. He was dead before he could put his fork down. You know what the police found out ? Someone had injected poison into the egg shell with a hypodermic needle. You know how easy it would be to do the same thing with chopped liver, corned beef, bread, mustard.
Capt. Barney Miller : Your letting your imagination run away with you, Mr. Shuster.
Alan Schuster : Yeah.
Officer Kogan : [enters the squad room] Here's your sandwiches from Grossman.
[the detectives look at one another and drop their sandwiches]
-
Capt. Barney Miller : Kogan, do me a favor. Get this stuff over to the lab. Get it analyzed. Send the report directly over to the hospital then call me.
-
Capt. Barney Miller : All right, let's make the best of a bad situation. Get the dispatcher to call Harris in the car. Have them check Wojo into the hospital under the name Alan Shuster
Det. Phil Fish : Right
Capt. Barney Miller : And put him on the critical list and let our friends think they got away with something. And call downstairs, tell them nobody comes up here that doesn't belong here
Det. Phil Fish : Right

Elizabeth Miller : Are you allowed to deduct for your shoes ?
Capt. Barney Miller : Only those with gum soles
Elizabeth Miller : I noticed, you didn't buy any new bullets last year.
Capt. Barney Miller : Didn't use the old ones yet?
Elizabeth Miller : Can I deduct them again ?... Can I depreciate them?
Capt. Barney Miller : Whatever...
Elizabeth Miller : I guess I didn't pick a very good time to come down and discuss taxes
Capt. Barney Miller : When it comes to discussing taxes, there's no such thing as a good time.
-
Capt. Barney Miller : What I'm trying to do is reconcile myself to the fact that I made an amateur's mistake when I'm suppose to be a professional
-
Elizabeth Miller : Have you been seeing another woman ?
Capt. Barney Miller : I don't remember , why ?
Capt. Barney Miller : There's a check stub here, $34 for Rose's
Elizabeth Miller : That's an Italian restaurant, I took the boys for lunch
Elizabeth Miller : I thought it was something like that. I just didn't want to think I was taking you for granted
Capt. Barney Miller : I appreciate it
-
Elizabeth Miller : Well, I guess I better be getting home.
Capt. Barney Miller : I won't be -- I won't be home for supper till 7:00.
Elizabeth Miller : Oh, maybe I'll go out
Capt. Barney Miller : With whom ?
Elizabeth Miller : Haven't made up my mind yet
Capt. Barney Miller : When you do, let me know ?
Elizabeth Miller : I appreciate it, Good Night !
Capt. Barney Miller : Good Night !

Det. Phil Fish : What ?
Capt. Barney Miller : Wojo ?
Det. Ron Harris : No, Schuster ? I let a few rumors sneak out, it's right here on the second page. Check it out.
Det. Phil Fish : You !...
Capt. Barney Miller : An unconfirmed rumor from an undisclosed source, Alan Schuster state witness scheduled to appear today before the crime commission, went to a Eastside Hospital... critical condition... overdose... undisclosed... died this morning at 5:15 AM... .Perfect... Sorry to see you go , Mr. Schuster

Capt. Barney Miller : Not really.
Yemana : Of course, they don't know you like we do
Capt. Barney Miller : How's Wojo ?
Det. Ron Harris : Sick as a dog ? But he's going to be okay. The doctor said a dude with an ordinary constitution would have cashed it in.
Yemana : He could eat a desk
Capt. Barney Miller : All right, Mr. Schuster get ready to travel. Harris, you and Fish take him over to City Hall, and turn him over to the Crime Commission
Det. Ron Harris : Okay, Schuster. Oh, no handcuffs. You'll ride in the back with me. Try to act as if your just another one of the detectives in this squad.
Alan Schuster : How do I do that ?
Det. Ron Harris : Oh, just look at me with admiration and respect
-
Capt. Barney Miller : Open it up, Nick
Yemana : Yeah
Capt. Barney Miller : Marty, I just spoke to the Department store, they're willing to accept the fact that you intended to buy the luggage, so ,uh, get over there, give them the money and they'll drop charges
Marty Morrison : Well, they are really expensive bags. I don't think I can afford them.
Capt. Barney Miller : They go with your shoes
Yemana : Bon Voyage
Marty Morrison : Thank you. Good luck. I don't suppose we'll be seeing each other again
Alan Schuster : I probably won't be seeing anybody again
Capt. Barney Miller : Check in Marty, I want to know what happens.
Marty Morrison : Yes, Captain... Uh... Goodbye, I really enjoy our brief encounter
Alan Schuster : Likewise
