• Angel Martin : [Angel enters the squad room, trying to avoid meeting Sgt. Becker]  Jimmy, Jimmy, come here.

  [motions for Rockford to come over to him] 

  Jim Rockford : Angel, where have you been?

  Angel Martin : Jimmy, can I talk to you for a second? I know you're mad at me. I know this thing can be explained, I swear.

  Jim Rockford : Where's my car?

  Angel Martin : Your car? It's fine. There's no need to report it stolen, Jimmy. I filled it up with gas, I even got it washed.

  [Angel looks at Becker and waves to him] 

  Angel Martin : Hi Captain!

  Dennis Becker : You've got jailbird written all over you. Where'd you do time, sport?

  Angel Martin : Time? Time...

  [he reaches into his pocket for his watch] 

  Angel Martin : It's five o'clock.

  [He reaches for Rockford] 

  Angel Martin : C'mon let's go.

  [Becker gets up and walks over to Angel] 

  Angel Martin : San Quentin. Four years, but I got out in three for good behavior. I even sang in the choir, didn't I, Jimmy?

  Dennis Becker : Who's this guy?

  Jim Rockford : Oh, uh,

  [points to each in turn] 

  Jim Rockford : Angel Martin, Dennis Becker.

  Dennis Becker : Angel Martin... you're in the known associates file.

  Angel Martin : Right, right, probably with Jimmy, we were both in at San Quentin, together.

  [laughing] 

  Angel Martin : I guess you could say we both owned a 'piece of the rock.'

• Dennis Becker : Angel. Now there's a strange guy. Is he really a lay-preacher?

  Jim Rockford : [Taken totally off guard, but, slightly bemused. Quizzically]  Angel?

  [Fumbling for words] 

  Jim Rockford : Wel... why... he... Dennis! Are you gonna report my car stolen, or what?
