Quotes[]
Bradford: We're cops, not influencers. Grey: Like it or not, Officer Bradford, you're both. A strong relationship with the public makes us all safer. So let's show them we're people, too. Get out there, take a few selfies. Yes, Officer Nolan? Nolan: Back in Foxburg, I knew most of the cops by name. Harper: Because there were four of them.
Nolan: You're working out how to kill me without your body cam catching it. Harper: Yeah, actually, that is what I was thinking.
Bradford: I've got no problem with community engagement. Citizens play a vital role in policing. The more they like us, the more they help us. Chen: That's a surprisingly enlightened attitude.
Bradford: What am I? Google? Do your own research.
West: How much did you pay Dispatch to give us the first call? Lopez: A bottle of Wesley's fancy wine.
Nolan: You're saying if we cover our badges, they're not gonna notice us? Harper: Yep. Watch. …
Bradford: You might find this surprising, but we don't talk about you. Ever. Chen: Wow.
Lang: Bradford's your TO? Chen: Yeah. Lang: My condolences. Chen: That's what everyone says.
Banks: Nyla was the most hardcore UC I've ever seen. She could lie to God Himself and get away with it. Grey: You don't say. That's surprising, 'cause she always tells me the truth. Right, Detective?
Bradford: Your social life is not my responsibility. I learned that lesson the hard way. You wanna vet Emmett, you go to somebody else.
Lopez: Sleeping with the enemy? This is about Wesley?
Chen: Oh, my God. I am the third wheel. West: Uh, beautiful, talented, badass third wheel.
Calderon: But there is a teller in interrogation. You think you got what it takes to get a confession out of this guy? Lopez: Watch me.
Bradford: Why would you even care what I think? Chen: What? Bradford: The last time I gave you romantic advice, I-I pushed you towards Caleb, and...you almost died. Chen: That's -- That's ridiculous. There was no reason to suspect anything. What happened -- What happened wasn't your fault. W-Wasn't mine, either. Look, I-I wouldn't ask your advice if I didn't value your opinion.
Grey: I'm gonna do something I never thought I would. I'm gonna buy you a beer. Nolan: Sir. Wow. I'm touched that you would even offer -- Grey: You gonna make this weird? 'Cause I can take it back. Nolan: No. I'm shutting up about it right now. You want to grab a bite to eat, too? Because there's -- You know what? Just a beer. That's fine. I'm busy, too.
