Detective Julio Sanchez : So, uh, Andrews? This TV show that you and Lieutenant Mike write for...
Lt. Mike Tao : I'm not the writer, I'm the technical advisor.
Jason Andrews : Right. Uh, Lieutenant Mike is just making sure that we follow rules and regulations and we use police jargon.
Detective Julio Sanchez : Okay. So what's this show about?
Jason Andrews : Uh, it's called "Badge of Justice," and it's about a small team of detectives fighting crime and corruption inside the LAPD.
Detective Julio Sanchez : [pause] What corruption?
Jason Andrews : Oh, you know, the usual - beating up suspects, planting evidence, uh, taking bribes, racial profiling...
-
Detective Julio Sanchez : Do you have a wife? Huh? I'm going to arrest her. You have a dog? I'm gonna kill it!
Lt. Mike Tao : [to Jason] He probably doesn't even have a dog.

Jason Andrews : [during a high speed chase] Uh, Det. Sanchez, if it's "s-safety first"...
Lt. Mike Tao : [observing traffic at intersections] Clear.
Jason Andrews : ...shouldn't you be wearing your seatbelt?
Detective Julio Sanchez : No.
Lt. Mike Tao : Clear. Clear.
Jason Andrews : It's, like, the law, though, right?
Detective Julio Sanchez : If somebody shoots at us, I wanna get out of the car, maybe jump out of the way. Seatbelts can get you killed.
[Jason moves to remove his seatbelt]
Detective Julio Sanchez : Don't do that.
Jason Andrews : Why not?
Lt. Mike Tao : If you hurt yourself through a crash, we have liability issues.
Detective Julio Sanchez : But if you get shot, we're off the hook, 'cause you signed a release.

Jason Andrews : So now you can arrest this guy.
Lt. Mike Tao : For what?
Jason Andrews : He's covered in human blood.
Captain Sharon Raydor : Which is not a crime; but, he left his trunk lid in the street littering, reckless driving, and without a license, and perhaps he didn't use his signal when turning.
Amy Sykes : Three or more moving violations while refusing to pull over, that's felony evasion. Great idea, Captain.
