Quotes[]

Sully: Our job. What are we doing out here?
Davis: Enforcing the law.
Sully: No, we're solving problems. We go from job to job solving problems as quickly as we can.

Sully [to Davis]: I'm not your father, I'm your partner. Just like I was his partner. And I'm not about to call your mother and tell her you're dead. I made that call to her once already. Look, you want to get yourself killed you do it on somebody else's watch.

Bosco: 220 horses, I got a gun, a siren, a tank full of city gas. Don't you love it?!

Sully [to Davis]: They puke on you at the academy too?

Bosco [after a man asks him for directions]: Do I look like an information kiosk to you?

Bobby: Jimmy Doherty.

Kim: It was a weak moment.

Bobby: Kim, you married him.


[When the words: "Bosco is a Dick" is written on the side of Bosco and Yokas' patrol car]

Sully: A lot of people might have written that.

Bosco: What is that supposed to mean?


[When Yokas and Bosco are directing traffic at an accident scene]

Man: Excuse me, I have to get through. I live just on the other side.

Bosco: Hey Yokas. Yokas! We got ourselves a big problem here. This guy, he lives just on the other side and he has to get through. Hey everybody! Get the hell out of the way! This guy needs to get through.

Man: That's okay, man.

Bosco: Come on. You drive, I'll shoot anybody that gets in your way.


Sully: Bosco couldn't find his ass with both hands and a map.

Yokas: You know you can be a real jerk; you know that?
Bosco: But you love me anyway, right? Huh? Right?
