- Brian Gamble: You know, I didn't know that they made bulletproof bras. Is it just me? But you know, I didn't know that.
- Chris Sanchez: What they need to make are bulletproof condoms big enough to fit your big head.
- [about Hondo's S.W.A.T. selection]
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: Sanchez is a woman and Street, well he's on my shit list
- Hondo: Hey! I'm on your shit list too and I'm the team captain.
- Gus: [discussing his wife's disapproval of the soft drink Dr. Pepper] You know the deal, Jim. When we got married, I converted to Mormonism. We can't consume anything that alters our state of mind. We treat out bodies with respect.
- Street: And I treat mine like an amusement park. That's the differences that make this country great!
- Neighbor in Alley: Y'all ain't got nothing better to do than to be haulin' off black people off to jail? Just perpetuatin' a cycle you know!
- Deke: [putting the criminal in the police car] Let's see how liberal you are when he breaks into your place!
- Neighbor in Alley: MMmm hm!
- Deke: Mmm hm my ass!
- Chris Sanchez: Just because I bought you a drink doesn't mean you're getting laid tonight.
- Street: So, what does two drinks mean?
- Alex Montel: American Greed.
- Street: Shut up.
- Alex Montel: So reliable.
- Street: Shut Up! Another officer is dead because you shot your mouth off.
- Alex Montel: That's how I like cops - dead.
- Street: You wanna join him? Huh?
- Alex Montel: He knew the dangers, no? That's why he signed up to be a police officer. Carry a gun in the Wild West - like you, Cowboy. Would you be sitting here if this job wasn't dangerous? Huh? Anyway... killing him probably got you 20 new recruits. You should thank me.
- Street: Yeah, you're right, I should. Boxer, thank him for me, will ya?
- Boxer: Love to.
- [Elbows Montel in the stomach]
- Hondo: 10-David, this is 70-David.
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: 70-David, where the hell are you?
- Hondo: We are somewhere around Sixth and Trenton. We lost communication in the tunnels. Where's our backup?
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: [**POSSIBLE SPOILER**] Everything I have is going to Hawthorne Airport. That's where your friends Gamble and T.J. McCabe are headed.
- Hondo: That's the other side of town! Send a couple units to pick us up.
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: PICK YOU UP? For all I know you're in on this! I got a good mind to bring you in!
- Hondo: [to Street, Sanchez, and Deke] Like hell. Come on, let's go.
- Hondo: Sorry. Wrong room.
- Chris: Who are you looking for?
- Hondo: Chris Sanchez.
- Chris: I'm Chris Sanchez.
- Hondo: YOU'RE Chris Sanchez?
- Chris: Look, if you're Internal Affairs, that guy had razorblades in his mouth. I had to put him down hard. I'm sick and tired of these bullshit complains because some vato doesn't like getting thrown to the pavement by a woman.
- Hondo: [Raises eyebrow] I look like IAD to you?
- [Sanchez shrugs]
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: Nice job.
- Hondo: Don't sound so happy.
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: Still got a problem. He's still here.
- [Gestures towards Alex Montel]
- Chris: Road trip?
- Street: [Beaten up from the fight with Gamble] Road trip.
- Hondo: Yeah... road trip. Guess you'll have to fire us later.
- [Street spits blood out of his mouth, team walks away toward arriving SWAT truck with Fuller smiling at the team for once in the whole movie]
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: Sometimes doing the right thing isn't doing the right thing.
- Sgt. Howard: What the hell is that supposed mean?
- Velasquez: We have ID'd those suspects.
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: Great! Who are they?
- Velasquez: Former officer Gamble and Officer T.J. McCabe.
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: Gamble, as in Street's ex-partner, Gamble?
- Velasquez: Roger.
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: We have got two SWAT-trained guys leading this attack. How do we know the rest of the team isn't in on it?
- Velasquez: Because I can vouch for Hondo.
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: You wanna bet 100 million dollars on that?
- McCabe: This was supposed to be simple snatch and extract.
- Brian Gamble: Boxer was a threat, T.J.
- McCabe: Boxer was my friend!
- Brian Gamble: He was mine too.
- Alex Montel: Stop crying. You can buy new friends.
- McCabe: Don't give me any more reason to kill you.
- Alex Montel: What are going to do, shoot me? You should relax a little bit, my friend. I'm the money here. Don't forget it.
- Brian Gamble: We don't have time for this shit. Look, you can go ahead. I know this sucks. Let's worry about it in paradise, all right?
- Velasquez: [Deleted Scene: Hondo's Introduction- Lt. Velasquez says to Officers of SWAT Division] Gentlemen! Our new 70-David has just made his first stealth entry. If you don't know him, you've probably heard of him: Sergeant Dan "Hondo" Harrelson!
- [Officers cheer and applaud, with Boxer and McCabe's voices louder than the others]
- Velasquez: Here is a man who will outrun, outfight, outshoot
- [Hondo raises his eyebrows in disbelief at Velasquez]
- Velasquez: , outsmart, out-paperwork, ALL OF YOU.
- McCabe: I got 20 bucks says otherwise.
- Boxer: I'll cover 10 of it for you.
- Velasquez: Now you know gambling's not allowed, and I shouldn't have to tell you that... but I'll cover that 10.
- Boxer: Done.
- Velasquez: Few words, Sergeant?
- Hondo: As a matter of fact...
- [Pretends to smack TJ with his book]
- Brian Gamble: [getting chewed out by Fuller for his stunt at the bank] That woman is alive because of what we did!
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: Yeah, alive and suing the city for millions. The Chief said if he's gonna pay, somebody else does, too, and it sure as hell isn't gonna be me.
- Brian Gamble: C'mon Fuller we get...
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: [Interrupting] *Captain* Fuller.
- Brian Gamble: Captain Fuller, we get two seconds to make a decision! You get two months to sit there and tear it apart!
- Velasquez: SWAT means "Special Weapons *And* Tactics". Where were your tactics out there?
- Street: Saving a woman from getting shot. That's where are tactics were.
- Brian Gamble: Yeah, every cop in this department knows that we did the right thing.
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: Sometimes, doing the right thing isn't doing the right thing.
- Sgt. Howard: What the hell does that mean?
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: Sergeant?
- [Fuller turns to Street and Gamble]
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: You disobeyed a direct order, end of story. You're both off SWAT.
- Velasquez: Captain. They're two of our best officers.
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: Well I'm not sticking them back in the field after a stunt like that.
- Brian Gamble: [Becoming angry] Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know that saving lives was goddamn stunt!
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: [Angry] Hey, you've got a big mouth, and apparently you're quick on the trigger, and *that* is why your ass is in a sling!
- Velasquez: Captain Fuller, if you're really gonna put them off SWAT at least keep them in the division. Give'em a shot at getting back.
- Capt. Thomas Fuller: [pause] Fine, stick'em in the gun cage. Get'em out of my sight.
- [after shooting through a hostage to take out the bank robber holding her by the neck]
- Gamble: I saved a hostage from getting shot.
- Alex Montel: What do you make, $66,000 a year?
- Street: Not even with overtime.
- Alex Montel: Ha, loser.
- Deke: [Deleted Scene: Locker Room] So my wife's all worried about me workin' SWAT.
- Boxer: They always are at first.
- Deke: [Imitates his wife] "How am I gonna take care of the kids if something happens to you?" So I called to get a little extra insurance. When I tell the chick down there I'm workin SWAT, guess what she does?
- McCabe: Laughs?
- Boxer: Hangs up?
- Deke: She laughs her ass off, AND hangs up.
- McCabe: [as Boxer and TJ laugh] Bitch. Alright guys, take care.
- Brian Gamble: Terrible day, I need a cocktail.
- Street: I'm staying.
- Brian Gamble: [In disbelief] You're what? After that?
- Street: In time, Fuller will have some new asses to chew on, and he'll put us back on the team.
- Brian Gamble: Fuller, is a cop pincher in this department, brother and he's never gonna give us a second chance.
- Street: So, what are you gonna do, piss away the hard work you did to get here?
- Brian Gamble: Piss *what* away, Jimmy? The cage? C'mon man, we're better than that and you know it. Wanna join me? Oh, I guess that a real partner wouldn't have to ask that would he?
- Street: A real partner would stood up for what he did at the bank.
- Brian Gamble: I saved that hostage.
- Street, Brian Gamble: You disobeyed the hold.
- Brian Gamble: No. I saved that hostage.
- Street: [Sternley shouting] You disobeyed the hold! You made that decision yourself, and you shot a hostage, Jesus Brian!
- Brian Gamble: [Shocked] Woah, you sounded a lot like Fuller. Isn't that what you were talking about in there, you rat me out, you cut a deal to get back on the team, Jim?
- Street: Did I cut a deal?
- Brian Gamble: Yeah, did you?
- Street: How many times have I cover up for you and all your goddamn stunts?
- Brian Gamble: [Shrugs] That's what a real partner
- [Picks up his badge]
- Brian Gamble: You just picked a paycheck over me, bro.
- [Tosses his badge to Street]
- Street: You just picked yourself over everything else.
- Brian Gamble: You wanna stay here, be Fuller's bitch? You go right ahaead, but I can't do it, nope can't do it. Goddmanit goddamnit god
- [slaps a locker in anger]
- Brian Gamble: damnit, Jim
- Street: We were partners for 5 years, and this is how you wanna end it?
- Brian Gamble: Nuh, uh. *I* didn't end it. You sold me out to the press.
- Street: You know, I never realize until now how full of shit you are.
- [Tosses the badge back to Gamble, who comes over and grabs Street by the shirt in anger]
- Brian Gamble: Fuck you, and SWAT.
- [Pushes Street back and breaks a mirror behind him]
