So how's it all going in the ****- torturing business, Dixon?

So how's it all going in the ****- torturing business, Dixon?
It's 'Persons of color'-torturing business, these days, if you want to know. And I didn't torture nobody.
What's the matter with you, saying that goddamn stuff on TV?... My momma watches that station.
She doesn't know about the torturing?
No. She's against that kinda thing.
Who's against what?
My momma is against persons-of-color-torturing. She said ****-torturing. I said, You can't say ****-torturing no more. You gotta say persons-of-color-torturing. Isn't that right, Chief?
What?
Don't say "what", Dixon, when she comes in calling you a ****head, and don't you come in here...
Shut up! [to Dixon] You, get over here.
No! You, get over here.
Alright.
What? Don't, Dixon!
What? I'm...
You do not allow a member of the public to call you a ****head in the station house!
That's what I'm doing, I'm taking care of it in my own way, actually. Now get out of my ass! Mrs. Hayes, have a seat! What is it I can do for you today?
Where's Denise Watson?
Denise Watson's in the clank.
On what charge?
Possession.
Of what?
Two marijuana cigarettes. Big ones.
When's the bail hearing?
I asked the judge not to give her bail on account of her previous marijuana violations and the judge said sure.
You **** prick!
You do not call an officer of the law a **** prick in his own station-house, Mrs. Hayes. Or anywhere, actually.
What's with the new attitude, Dixon? Your momma been coaching ya?
No. My momma didn't do that. [as Mildred leaves the police station house] Take 'em down, you hear me?
You did good, Dixon.
Yeah, I know I did.
Hey, Dixon?
Yeah?
I need to tell you something... It was me that burned down the police station.
Well, who the hell else would it have been?
Dixon?
Yeah?
Are you sure about this?
'Bout killing this guy? Not really. You?
Not really. I guess we can decide along the way.
