S.W.A.T. quotes

Brian Gamble
[Jim Street and Brian Gamble are in Captain Thomas Fuller's office, facing punishment for their stunt with the bank robbery]

That woman is alive because of what we did.

Capt. Thomas Fuller

Yeah, alive and suing the city for millions. The Chief said if he's gonna pay, somebody else does, too, and it sure as hell isn't gonna be me.

Brian Gamble

C'mon Fuller we get...

Capt. Thomas Fuller
[Interrupting]

*Captain* Fuller.

Brian Gamble

Captain Fuller, we get two seconds to make a decision! You get two months to sit there and tear it apart?!

Velasquez

SWAT means "Special Weapons *And* Tactics". Where were your tactics out there?

Saving a woman from getting shot. That's where are tactics were.

Gamble

Every cop in this department knows that we did the right thing.

Fuller

Sometimes, doing the right thing isn't doing the right thing.

Sgt. Howard

What the hell does that mean?

Fuller
[stern]

Sergeant... [turns to Street and Gamble] You disobeyed a direct order, end of story. You're both off SWAT.

Velasquez

Captain. They're two of our best officers.

Fuller

Well I'm not sticking them back in the field after a stunt like that.

Gamble
[Becoming angry]

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know that saving lives was goddamn stunt!

Fuller
[Becoming angry with Gamble]

Hey, you've got a big mouth, and apparently you're quick on the trigger, and *that* is why your ass is in a sling!

Velasquez

Captain Fuller, if you're really gonna put them off SWAT at least keep them in the division. Give'em a shot at getting back.

Fuller
[Everyone pauses. Fuller looks at Velasquez, then back at Street]

Fine, stick'em in the gun cage. Get'em out of my sight.

[After dropping off Montiel, the team receives a report of a stand-off on the way back]

Technically, our watch has been over for 12 hours.

So? [looks at Hondo]

[understands]

Yeah ... What the hell. [prepares weapon] Mount up!

Brian Gamble
[Brian Gamble and Jim Street argue over the aftermath of the bank robbery that has threatened to get them dismissed from service]

Terrible day, I need a cocktail.

I'm staying.

Gamble
[In disbelief]

You're what? After that?

In time, Fuller will have some new asses to chew on, and he'll put us back on the team.

Gamble

Fuller, is a cop pincher in this department, brother and he's never gonna give us a second chance.

So, what are you gonna do, piss away the hard work you did to get here?

Gamble

Piss WHAT away, Jimmy? The cage? C'mon man, we're better than that and you know it. Wanna join me? Oh, I guess that a real partner wouldn't have to ask that would he?

A real partner would stood up for what he did at the bank.

Gamble

I saved that hostage.

You disobeyed the hold.

Gamble

No. I saved that hostage.

[shouts]

You disobeyed the hold! You made that decision yourself, and you shot a hostage, Jesus Brian!

Gamble
[Shocked]

Woah, you sounded a lot like Fuller. Isn't that what you were talking about in there, you rat me out, you cut a deal to get back on the team, Jim?

Did I cut a deal?

Gamble

Yeah, did you?

How many times have I cover up for you and all your goddamn stunts?

Gamble
[shrugs]

That's what a real partner ... [picks up badge] You just picked a paycheck over me, bro. [tosses badge to Street]

You just picked yourself over everything else.

Gamble

You wanna stay here, be Fuller's bitch? You go right ahead, but I can't do it, nope can't do it. Goddmanit goddamnit god-[slaps locker in anger]-damnit, Jim.

We were partners for five years, and this is how you wanna end it?

Gamble

Nuh, uh. I didn't end it. You sold me out to the press.

You know, I never realize until now how full of shit you are. [tosses badge back to Gamble, who comes over and grabs Street by the shirt in anger]

Gamble

**** you, and SWAT. [pushes Street back and breaks a mirror behind him]

Chris Sanchez
[Chris Sanchez notices something while the team drives on the way to Hawthorne Airport]

Did they build an airport downtown in the past two days?

I don't think so, Sanchez, why?

Sanchez

That Learjet on your right. It's flying real low.

Deacon "Deke" Kaye
[Deke Kaye is impressed with a prototype device Street introduced to the team for a takedown]

We need to sell that shit on eBay.

I only have one.

Deke

We'll split the profits fifty-fifty, corner the market. Break 'em down like a shotgun - The Polish Penetrator!

[Hondo monitors the team as they play poker by sniper rifle] [Deke shoots a card]

Ten of spades. Spade flush. Not good enough.

Hondo, isn't that a straight flush?

[reads cards through binoculars]

Hold the phone. Six, seven, eight, nine, ten of spades. Straight flush. Deke!

Deacon "Deke" Kaye
[smiles as Hondo evaluates his shots]

Beats four aces in Compton any day!

Michael Boxer

I think that works in Orange County too!

TJ McCabe
[Hondo sees TJ McCabe lying in the disabled Learjet]

How's Boxer?

What do you care?

McCabe

C'mon, Hondo, just give me that.

He's going to make it.

McCabe

Good.

Just couldn't resist, could ya? So what do you wanna do?

McCabe

Goddamnit, Sarge. [commits suicide]

Michael Boxer
[Michael Boxer and TJ McCabe chance upon Jim Street]

I just want to know what you did to my little sister.

She's 28, Boxer, okay? And trust me, she's not so little.

TJ McCabe
[laughing]

Oh no, you didn't...
