Quotes 

• Detective Mac Taylor : I'm just asking questions, Don.

  Detective Don Flack : No, you're not just asking questions, Mac. Come on, I know you. You wouldn't be here talking to me if you hadn't already tracked the chain of custody, checked with property, and called the DEA agents. And let me tell you something, cocaine from that raid wouldn't last six months on the street. So what is this? My interrogation?

  Detective Mac Taylor : You're overreacting.

  Detective Don Flack : Well maybe I am, but let me save you a little bit of time - none of my guys took a thing.

  Detective Mac Taylor : You can't be sure of that. You weren't there. You just said you didn't remember.

  Detective Don Flack : It didn't happen, Mac.

  Detective Mac Taylor : You're listed on the DD5 as the recorder on the scene. You had to take everything down in your memo book - every detective who was there, who searched the room, who found the drugs.

  Detective Don Flack : You askin' me for it?

  Detective Mac Taylor : You can check your notes or you can let me do it.

  Detective Don Flack : Is this official business?

  Detective Mac Taylor : It's a request, from a friend.

  Detective Don Flack : Then I'm gonna have to think about it.

  [He walks away] 

• Detective Mac Taylor : Don.

  Detective Don Flack : Hey.

  Detective Mac Taylor : You know why I'm here.

  Detective Don Flack : Do you care about the consequences?

  Detective Mac Taylor : I know this isn't easy for you.

  Detective Don Flack : I'm not talking about me, Mac. I'm talking about the hundred of arrests this cop was involved in, the thugs who are going to be screaming for an appeal because his credibility's in question, and the ones who are going to go free despite the fact they're guilty and he did everything by the book. I'm talking about child molesters, rapists, murderers.

  Detective Mac Taylor : Kym Tanaka's shooter stepped over his body and collected shell casings. He stuck his fingers into the victim's shoulder wound to retrieve a bullet all to save his own ass. He was there to sell drugs, poison, that destroys families, creates addicts out of babies in the womb, and accounts for twenty-three percent of the murders in this city. Don't make me subpena your memo book, Don.

  [Flack throws him the memo book. Mac walks away, stops, and turns back to Flack] 

  Detective Mac Taylor : The consequences I care about are the cops who never cross the line who now have to face critisim on suspicion because one of their own forgot the oath we took. Whichever one of these guys is found guilty I hope he goes away for a very long time because he disrespected the badge that you and I wear.
