Quotes 

  • Vic Mackey : Good cop and bad cop have left for the day. I'm a different kind of cop.

  • Vic Mackey : Well maybe in your own mind, amigo. But in the real world, I don't answer to you. Not today, not tomorrow, not even on Cinco de Mayo.

  • Claudette Wyms : The evidence is lacking.

    Vic Mackey : So is Dutchboy's dick but I'm not helping with that.

    Vic Mackey : Just that is great to be back in the States.

  • Vic Mackey : [after he identified Ben Gilroy's body]  How'd he die?

  • Shane Vendrell : It was gonna be a surprise.

    Vic Mackey : It is. A bad one.

  • Vic Mackey : Until now I've tolerated you. Come near my men again... I'm gonna lose patience.

  • Vic Mackey : What the hell are you doing?

    Vic Mackey : And what level is that? Prison?

    [Shane doesn't answer]

  • Smitty : Why are you guys always coming to me with this shit?

    Vic Mackey : Because you're the last honest guy we know.
