Quotes 

• Det. Lt. Everett Backstrom : [thoughtfully]  I'm a soft boy... pretending to be a hard man... I need a gun, where do I go? My dad the anti-gun senator? Nope. The guys on my rugby team who are afraid of shoe polish? Uh-uh. To my girlfriend, the low-life stripper. And where does she get it? From her boyfriend, the low-life drug dealer. We know you loaded the gun, we found your fingerprints on the bullets.

  Cassandra : [crying]  Ok, I gave Toby the gun, but only because I was afraid for his life. I didn't know it was broken.

  Det. Lt. Everett Backstrom : How do you know... NOW?

  Cassandra : [glaring]  You're a racist pig who hates women!

  Det. Lt. Everett Backstrom : THERE she is... good.

  [laughs] 

  Cassandra : [evil grin]  I lost the boy I love. Who do you think people will believe?

  Det. Lt. Everett Backstrom : [looks Cassandra dead in the eyes]  I'm a stripper, who sends a boy that loves her to his death. Why does she hate him so much? Because there was a moment in which he made me believe in him. True love. White knights. But someone as corrupt as me... can never have faith in a person like that. I stood on the cusp of an extraordinary life, and I chose the wrong path. Like everybody always does.
