Nick: When are you gonna get me something with a little relevance, a little social conscience, something that doesn't have a goddamn Roman numeral in the title? You ever hear of "Hamlet III", Ang? "Midsummer's Night IV"?
Angie: They made "Henry V"! It won awards for that little Scottish fellow!

Nick: Ever killed anybody?
John: Counting today?
Nick: Come on, John. Look, my character kills this guy. It's probably an innocent by-stander. I just want to know what it's like.
John: You can't. Not by asking someone.
Nick: Will you open up? I just want to know what it feels like to be inside you skin.
John: I DON'T WANT YOU INSIDE MY SKIN, YOU UNDERSTAND? It's private! What's in there belongs to me! You're not going to learn what it means to be a cop by eating hot dogs and picking your teeth and asking stupid questions. We live this job. It's something we are, no something we do! Every time a cop walks up to a car and has to give a speeding ticket, he knows he may have to kill someone or to be killed himself. That's not something you step into by strapping on a rubber gun and riding around all day. You get to go back to your $1,000,000 beach house and your bimbos and your blow jobs and you get 17 takes to get it right. We get one take. It lasts our whole lives. We mess it up and we're dead.
Nick: [

John: No one since my divorce even stuck around for a second date. They say they don't like me being a cop, or I don't know. Maybe it's something about my personality-
