Quotes 

• Lt. Jefferson Burnett : Well I'm surprised to see you here McCall. Thought you were retired.

  Robert McCall : Yeah that's what I thought. Apparently the rest of the world doesn't agree.

• Lt. Jefferson Burnett : What went down here?

  Robert McCall : Well I dear say there will be an explanation. Polite telephone call to your people.

  Lt. Jefferson Burnett : To hell with polite phone calls. I don't like people playing cloak and dagger games in my sector. An innocent person could have been killed in that cross fire.

  Robert McCall : An innocent person was killed.

  Lt. Jefferson Burnett : Look McCall you can't hide behind that security clearance anymore. You're just a private citizen now.

  Robert McCall : Yeah. Well there's a thing called the constitution I can hide behind now, isn't there. You have any further questions Jefferson?
