Third Watch Season 6 Episode 19

Cruz: CI said the drop was gonna happen anytime between 12 and 5.
Santiago: Oh, man, that's like an appointment with the cable company.

Levine: The further from the rat race, the more relaxing the weekend will be.
Carlos: Relaxing? My ass is already killing me from the drive.

{about a cow}
Carlos: Okay, what about him?
Levine: She's outstanding in her field.

{Santiago is tapping on the window}
Levine: That noise, Manny, is so not working for me.

Levine: If I had said "hey, let's drive ten hours into the sticks so you can meet my parents" you would've had a complete meltdown.
Carlos: No I wouldn't.

Levine: You're having one now.
Carlos: It's because you kidnapped me.

Levine: You're allegedly not a kid.
Carlos: Well, it's person-napping. I'm being taken somewhere against my will. I'm definitely being some kind of napped.

{to Cruz}
Santiago: First time in a Botanica? What kind of Latina are you?

Santiago: There's a patron saint for everything.
Cruz: What about, uh, Santa Claus, huh? Is he the patron saint of toys?

Cruz: Don't tell me you're one of those guys that has to light a candle every time something goes wrong.
Santiago: Not every time.
Cruz: Yeah, well that's how my sister was…look how she ended up.

Santiago: Santeria's an interesting religion.
Cruz: Religion? More like hocus-pocus.

Cruz: I don't believe in this stuff.
Santiago: What do you believe in?
Cruz: Me.

Levine: They live in a rural area.
Carlos: How rural?
Levine: Very.

Carlos: Oh, tell me they have indoor plumbing.
Levine: Where's your sense of adventure?
Carlos: They don't have indoor plumbing?

Chuck: Charles Benjamin. Call me "Chuck."
Carlos: Carlos Nieto…You can--- you can call me Carlos.

Yokas: Hey, Larry.
Larry: Yokas. What are you, lost?
Yokas: No, I was uh... I was in the neighborhood.
Larry: Doin' what? You need a passport to get here from the 5-5.
Yokas: And shots.

{to Yokas}
Larry: You looking to trick-bag your ex-partner over an accidental shooting of some IAB rat bitch?

Larry: Bosco's right, you sure as hell aren't the same Faith Yokas you used to be.

Carlos: Actually, I'm--- I'm Hawaiian.
Chuck: A Hawaiian named Carlos?

Marleen: I didn't say anything was wrong with looking Spanish. Holly's fist husband was a Jew.

Carlos: We're more like, uh, casually serious.
Chuck: Oh, I see. You're just "casually" sleeping with my daughter.
Carlos: Oh, no, that part's serious.

Carlos: You know that cows are outstanding in their fields?
Chuck: Yeah, that's a good one.
Marleen: Oh, was that a joke?

Finney: Do you need us to come with you?
Santiago: Hey guys, uh, why don't you wipe some more of that brown stuff off your nose?

Cruz: Maybe Jamie Castro has the Santa Claus candle.
Santiago: And you still got the damn jokes.

Davis: You know, I've been trying to catch up with you. Just, uh…
Bosco: Listen, that woman went for her gun, all right? They struggled--- she pushed Monroe in the line of fire. That's it, all right? There's nothing I could do.
Davis: No. I was just gonna say you don't have to avoid me. You know, I know what kind of cop you are. You say it wasn't your fault, I believe you. I trust you.

Chuck: Would somebody please tell me how I ended up with a daughter who was raised in Virginia, moved to New York, and became a Californian.

{Chuck wants to take Carlos hunting}
Carlos: I'd love to go. It sounds like fun.
Levine: It's not fun for the deer.

Chuck: We'll throw 'em a little party before we shoot 'em.
Levine: {to Carlos} How about celibacy? Does that sound like fun?

{to Cruz}
Jamie: You don't have to believe it, but at least respect it.

Monroe: Wish you would've brought me a Big Mac. Supersized.
Davis: Come on now, you got your mashed potatoes. They look…edible. And you're uh, ham, or steak--- what the hell is that?
Monroe: It's supposed to be chicken and rice.

Davis: I'm sorry. I'm sorry for the way that I treated you and, uh all the terrible things that I said to you. I just…
Monroe: Why?
Davis: Why what?
Monroe: Why now?

Davis: I…
Monroe: Because you come and visit me everyday and you bring me a plant? Because I'm the same person that you didn't want to have anything to do with last week. And I just want to know what the difference is. Because I was pregnant with your child and now you feel sorry for me?
Davis: No.

Monroe: Why? Because I got shot?
Davis: No.

Monroe: Then why, Ty? What's the difference now?
Davis: Me. Ever since we broke up no matter how hard I tried I couldn't convince myself that I didn't care about you anymore. Couldn't do it. And I couldn't figure out why. And then I heard you got shot and uh…right at that moment, I mean, before I even heard about the baby, right at that moment, I realized that I love you. I do. I love you. And I never told you that.

Jamie: Sergeant, don't be afraid to ask for it.
Cruz: Hmm?
Jamie: Help.

Santiago: Look, Sarge, I don't want to front or anything but th-th-this whole setup is creeping me out.
Cruz: Well, don't get too creeped out, because we're gonna sit here and we're gonna wait.

Marlene: …her husband has a great job. He works for the government.
Levine: He's a mailman.
Marlene: That's the government.

Levine: A real doctor as opposed to paramedic?
Marlene: Holly's so sensitive about her underachieving.

{about Carlos being a paramedic}
Marlene: You know, it's a noble profession.
Levine: When I do it I'm underachieving, but when he does it it's noble?

Marlene: Honey, he's a minority.
Levine: He's Hawaiian.
Marlene: How many Hawaiians did you have in your graduating class? That's a minority.

Cruz: She looks so empty.
Santiago: What?
Cruz: Dead people. They always look like they're missing something.
Santiago: They are. Their soul.

Cruz: Do you ever think of dying?
Santiago: No.
Cruz: Are you afraid?
Santiago: All I know for sure is I don't want to. I'll fight to stay alive. But if I needed some kind of operation or something, I'd take the risk.

Cruz: Well, what if the treatment was gonna make you sicker than you already were and then even then there was no guarantee that it was gonna really work?
Santiago: There's no guarantee you're going to live through a shift on the job. But you keep coming back.

Yokas: This isn't about you anymore. You either go to Swersky or I will.
Bosco: Do what you gotta do! Now get the hell out of my way.

Marlene: He's just trying to get under your skin.
Carlos: Why?
Marlene: We live out here in the country. What else do we have to do?

Cruz: I went to tell you that we caught Ernesto and to see how you were feeling.
Jamie: That's thoughtful…
Cruz: Goodnight.
Jamie:…but what is it that you really want?

Cruz: Being a cop you realize pretty early on that lighting a candle isn't gonna make a junkie not rob and kill an old man or a little girl not be raped by her father.
Jamie: Lighting a candle is only supposed to ask the spirit for someone like you to come along and help.

Cruz: Spirits didn't make me become a cop. I grew up in a neighborhood where I was constantly seeing women being victims and I didn't want to be like that. I didn't want to be a victim.
Jamie: Do you think any of these victims ever lit a candle, ever prayed for someone like you to come and save them? Everyone has to have something to believe in.

Cruz: I believe in me.
Jamie: Well, you don't have to be alone, Sergeant.

Levine: Would you stop being nice!
Carlos: I'm not that nice.

Carlos: I didn't grow up in a family. I thought it was interesting.
Levine: Interesting?
Carlos: I've only seen that kind of dysfunction in the movies.

Levine: I told them that I had this perfect life in New York. That I had a nice apartment, and a great job and an amazing boyfriend and somehow I walk away from the whole situation feeling like it's not true.
Carlos: You said I was amazing?

Levine: My mother…
Carlos: What?
Levine: She asked me how bad the situation was in New York that I would actually consider you amazing.
Carlos: Well, I gotta say, that's…that's a good question.

Levine: I wouldn't blame you if you wanted to run away from me now.
Carlos: Are you kidding? You taught me something today that no one ever has.
Levine: I did?
Carlos: You made me appreciate being an orphan.

Jamie: Do you have family? Someone to come home to?
Cruz: No, but that's because I work a lot.
Jamie: No. That's why you work a lot.

{to Cruz}
Jamie: I don't think you came back tonight to tell me Ernesto got arrested. I think you came back because you're afraid.

Jamie: Santeria can't fight Lukemia. That's going to take doctors and medicine. But for what's in here {points to heart}, well, we can help. And for what's up there {points to head}, definitely. Can't heal the body if the spirit's broken.
Cruz: And you're gonna help me?
Jamie: Come with me.
