Quotes
-
Ray Vecchio : [approaching Fraser's new apartment] Fraser, you do not want to live in this neighbourhood. Cops do not live in areas like this, most people we bust won't even live here!
Constable Benton Fraser : Why? It's central, convenient. I can walk to work in seven minutes.
Ray Vecchio : Not without backup.
Constable Benton Fraser : 231. It's just up on the right.
Ray Vecchio : Look, do me a favour and let's turn around and I'll take you back to your hotel?
Constable Benton Fraser : Well, we can't, I checked out. The windows wouldn't open.
Ray Vecchio : Fraser, this is Chicago. The only reason to open a window is to get a better aim.
-
Ray Vecchio : Does the word 'incarcerate' mean anything to you?
Constable Benton Fraser : Well, it's from the medieval Latin, 'incarcerata', to imprison.
Ray Vecchio : Medieval Latin? You let a perp go and you're giving me medieval Latin?
Constable Benton Fraser : Actually, 'perpetrator' is also Latin, from 'perpetrare'...
Ray Vecchio : Shut up, okay? Just shut up!
-
Dennis Argyle : Yo, I found the key.
Constable Benton Fraser : I'll be right up, sir.
[whispers]
Constable Benton Fraser : Ray, Ray, Ray.
Ray Vecchio : What?
Constable Benton Fraser : Is my lanyard straight?
Ray Vecchio : [referring to Dennis] He's a slum lord!

Caroline Morgan : Don't move, Boy Scout. Back right off.
Constable Benton Fraser : You alright, Ray?
Ray Vecchio : I'm well, Fraser, and you?
Caroline Morgan : [to Fraser] Dead in your tracks! Right there. Take out the gun and drop it on the floor
Ray Vecchio : Don't do it, Fraser. Take the shot.
Constable Benton Fraser : I'm afraid I'm not carrying a gun.
Caroline Morgan : Drop the gun!
Constable Benton Fraser : I honestly don't have one.
Ray Vecchio : [about Fraser] Sharp shooter first class. Can take the head off a pin.
Constable Benton Fraser : He's right about that
Ray Vecchio : [to Morgan] Drop it or he takes you out
Constable Benton Fraser : I would if I had a gun, Ray.
Caroline Morgan : Show me the gun!
Constable Benton Fraser : Well we'd have to go back to my office. I do have this knife.
Ray Vecchio : Oh, that's good Benny. Threaten her with your camping utensils
-
Constable Benton Fraser : She shot my hat, Ray.
Ray Vecchio : She shot you in the hat?
Constable Benton Fraser : I can feel air coming in through the hole.
Ray Vecchio : She shot you in the hat, all right.
Constable Benton Fraser : How does it look?
Ray Vecchio : Doesn't look good.
Constable Benton Fraser : We'll have to go home and get my other one.
Ray Vecchio : We can do that, Fraser.
Constable Benton Fraser : Thanks, Ray.

Cleaning Salesman : [cleaning Fraser's boots] Now you strike me as a man who has only one thing on his mind. You're saying to yourself, Why do I need another all-purpose cleanser? Now Dandy Cleanser isn't just another all-purpose cleaning product. It removes rust, stains, mildew - always leaves a dandy shine. Hey, look! You can see your face in it!
Ray Vecchio : [coming up behind him] No kidding. Can you see my badge in it?
Cleaning Salesman : Yep, I can.
[packs off]
Ray Vecchio : Okay, I know you're acting as Canada's last line of defense here, guarding your consulate against marauding cleanser salesmen, but we've got a problem. You know the gun you took off that purse snatcher yesterday? We ran it through ballistics, and guess what it spit out. Go ahead, guess.
[Fraser doesn't even blink]
Ray Vecchio : You need a clue? It rhymes with, the kid shot somebody. All right, not interested? I'll catch ya later.
[church bells toll]
Constable Benton Fraser : Ray!
Ray Vecchio : Oh, sure, now you wanna talk.

Female officer : Like your dog.
Constable Benton Fraser : He's white.
Ray Vecchio : Oh, very smooth.
Female officer : Call me.
Ray Vecchio : [waving a hand in front of Fraser's face] Get out! And you, get out! 'Call me'! You throw out a lame line like that and she says 'call me'?
