Quotes
-
[Sipowicz and Clark are examining a dead body]
Ian Braithwaite : Uh... pardon me, so sorry. I don't mean to appear maudlin, but well, um, no one's going to believe me back home. It would mean a great deal to me if I could have my picture taken with you both.
Det. Andy Sipowicz : Nuh-no. Show's over, pal.
Ian Braithwaite : We've had such a terrible time in your city. This would go a long way to making it...
Det. Andy Sipowicz : Why don't you take off.
Ian Braithwaite : Certainly.
[turns away]
Det. Andy Sipowicz : [to Clark] That little dickhead is gonna snap a picture regardless. Watch.
[Ian turns to take a photo as Sipowicz and Clark both give him the middle finger]
Ian Braithwaite : Brilliant!

John Irvin : Have you signed the card?
Det. Andy Sipowicz : [after John passes him a giant card] What the hell?
John Irvin : I needed one big enough for everyone in the precinct to sign.
Det. Andy Sipowicz : Are there going to be pony rides?
Det. Connie McDowell : It's a nice card, John.
Det. Andy Sipowicz : [after signing the card] Any word yet on who's replacing Rodgriguez?
Det. Connie McDowell : No, and I've been calling around.
Det. John Clark, Jr. : [Reads Andy's message as he's preparing to sign the card] "Hope it works out"?
Det. Andy Sipowicz : Yeah.
Det. Connie McDowell : Andy!
Det. Andy Sipowicz : What? I hope it works out for the guy
[looks over at Clark]
Det. Andy Sipowicz : Why don't you mind your own business over there, huh?
Det. Connie McDowell : "Hope it works out" sounds like you don't think it will.
Det. Andy Sipowicz : If I'd have thought that, I'd have wrote it.
Det. Connie McDowell : Just add "good luck" or something
Det. Andy Sipowicz : Connie, it's not like he's gonna be framing this thing.

Sgt. Eddie Gibson : Gentlemen and ladies of the 15th, I've arrived!
[salutes Rodriguez]
Sgt. Eddie Gibson : MIssion aboard, Lieutenant.
Lt. Tony Rodriguez : Come in, Eddie.
Det. Andy Sipowicz : It's busy, Gibson. What are you doing here?
Sgt. Eddie Gibson : Ha, Ha, Andy.
[to Rodriguze]
Sgt. Eddie Gibson : Sorry for the boxes coming in piecemeal. My car broke down so I'm bringing in loads in the wife's Festiva.
Det. Andy Sipowicz : [surprised] Those are YOUR boxes?
Sgt. Eddie Gibson : Course they are.
Lt. Tony Rodriguez : You're the new C.O.?
Sgt. Eddie Gibson : The Chief of Detectives didn't give you a head's up?
Det. Connie McDowell : No.
Sgt. Eddie Gibson : Oh, geez! I'll come back after the tour.
Lt. Tony Rodriguez : No, no. It's all right. Come on in.
Sgt. Eddie Gibson : Chief of Ds told me today was the day, so I figured they'd tell you. But maybe it's for the best because I got about a million questions, Lieutenant. And I'm eager to pick your brain.
Lt. Tony Rodriguez : Well, let's get started
[gestures]
Lt. Tony Rodriguez : your office.
Sgt. Eddie Gibson : Guys, just so you know, I'm well aware of the abilities of the personnel on this squad and I got no intention of fixing what ain't broke. And my management style? Hands off. Unless one of you really steps on your Johnson. Kidding.
Det. Andy Sipowicz : [after Eddie goes into the office with Tony] This is April Fool's, right?
