Hugh Dillon: Constable Ed Lane

Quotes 

• Ed Lane : [to Sam]  It doesn't get any easier. We don't get to win every time. You got to be at peace with who you are to get through that. There's a bunch of guys I know - they're cops, they're military guys - we meet up and we talk, and we help each other keep it together. Greg and I are going Friday night. You should come.

• Ed Lane : You get a visual on the shooter?

  Demolition Expert : No, but we weren't looking around; we got out of there fast.

  Ed Lane : You get a sense of what direction the shots came from?

  Demolition Expert : No, the place is huge. A lot of concrete, echoes. And like I said...

  Sgt. Gregory Parker : You were getting shot at. You weren't thinking detail. I get it.

• Sgt. Gregory Parker : [the team enters an arena building where shots were fired]  April 2, 1957. You know who played here? Memphis Flash.

  Ed Lane : Boss, focus.

  Sgt. Gregory Parker : The King!

• Sgt. Gregory Parker : [hears gunfire on radio]  Eddie, talk to me.

  Ed Lane : I'm good! Wordy?

  Kevin 'Wordy' Wordsworth : Uh-huh. No harm!

  Sam Braddock : That's live fire.

  Ed Lane : We got an active shooter. He's here.

• Sgt. Gregory Parker : [after Ed finds a secret door - whispering]  Down the rabbit hole.

  Ed Lane : Spike?

  Mike Scarlatti : No rabbit hole on the floor plans.

• Jules Callaghan : Winnie cross-referenced recent vets with criminal records. I have 37 names.

  Ed Lane : We need a shorter short list.

• SIU Blair Kowalski : No talking to witness officers until you've made a statement.

  Ed Lane : I heard you the first time. Sam!

  Sam Braddock : You heard the man. Don't talk to witness officers!

  Ed Lane : Sam, you got to listen to me.

  Sgt. Gregory Parker : Where you going, Sam?

  Sam Braddock : [holding up his bloody arms]  I'm going to shower and go home.

  Ed Lane : We're not done here.

  Sam Braddock : Well, maybe I am.

  Sgt. Gregory Parker : We got to debrief.

  Sam Braddock : I got nothing to say.

  Sgt. Gregory Parker : That's not an option. Get in there...

  [grabs Sam and shoves him towards the door] 

  Sgt. Gregory Parker : Now!

• Sam Braddock : He wasn't going to hurt me.

  Ed Lane : We couldn't take that chance, Sam.

  Sam Braddock : You've never taken that chance? I've seen you do it!

  Mike Scarlatti : He's got a point. You've done it, I've done it, but the question is, why'd you do it? For Darren or for Ben? Maybe you wanted a second chance to save your friend.
