Barney Phillips: Lt. Sam Geller

Quotes 

• Johnny Midnight : Oh, Sam, you and I are friends. Aki just turned up. I got a lot of questions I want to ask him.

  Lt. Sam Geller : So do I, only I got a legal right and you don't. Mitsu Kyoto died a little while ago. The charge is murder, first degree, so you better get a lawyerto ask him your questions. Sorry, Johnny.

• Lt. Sam Geller : Then you come with another trick word like "Daimyos," as if I didn't have enough mysteries.

  Johnny Midnight : No mysteries, Sam. Daimyos was a Japanese secret society.

  Lt. Sam Geller : Secret societies!

  Johnny Midnight : Sam, that's right. I looked it up. The Daimyos were an organization who were an outgrowth of the ancient Samurai period of feudal warlords, and these people had a lot of weird customs...

  Lt. Sam Geller : Like murder!

  Johnny Midnight : Like murder, torture, and more. The Daimyos were declared illegal many years ago in Japan, but it is believed there are still many secret practitioners, fanatics.

  Lt. Sam Geller : Aw, nuts! Why couldn't you come up with something simple, like Mafia maybe?

• Johnny Midnight : He thinks he's been tricked, now he won't trust me. He's been humiliated. He's lost face. And you know what a Japanese usually does when he's lost face? He tries to kill himself.

  Lt. Sam Geller : Oh, c'mon! Wouldn't be much chance of that sitting in jail.

  Johnny Midnight : That's where you're wrong, Sam. Aki's trying to kill himself right now. By his silence.
