Quotes
-
Jeanne : The mayor's here.
Will Girardi : I noticed the seas parting.
-
Helen Girardi : Kevin! Luke! Dinner!
Will Girardi : No Joan?
Helen Girardi : No. She's, um... she's babysitting. Her latest enterprise. Do you think she's saving up for a tattoo or something?
Will Girardi : Nothing would surprise me.
-
Joan Girardi : Why can't they make homeroom at a reasonable time? I mean, you're the chief of police. Can't you take care of it?
Will Girardi : [sarcastic] It's on the top of my list: investigate public school schedules.
-
Joan Girardi : [seeing a news report about Will's police brutality case] Whoa. Dad, you're not in trouble over this, are you?
Will Girardi : I'm the chief of police. It's my job to be in trouble.

Will Girardi : What you reading?
[Helen shows him "On Death and Dying"]
Will Girardi : Why?
Helen Girardi : Because... for me, sometimes, it's like... Kevin died, and I need to deal with that.
Will Girardi : Helen...
Helen Girardi : I know. I'm the one... who's always preaching... gratitude and moving on, and I was clinging to that so hard, and then it... it stopped working for me. I felt alone, and... I, um... I talked to a priest. I didn't want to bother you.
Will Girardi : That was the deal we made a long time ago. You get to bother me. You don't have to do anything alone.
Helen Girardi : I'm sorry I lied to you about the priest. That's... who I met on my lunch break.
Will Girardi : You come to me, not some stranger. Promise me.

Will Girardi : Do you have a take on this?
Lt. Det. Toni Williams : Well, I'm working it out right beside you.
Will Girardi : And Koczara?
Lt. Det. Toni Williams : Not my favorite. The odd offensive remark now and then, when he's been drinking. Across the board, though, he doesn't single out any particular brand.
Will Girardi : And yet you can't really look at me when you say that. I could benefit from your candor, Detective. And don't worry about the blue wall. Everything stays right here.
Lt. Det. Toni Williams : The guy's a racist. In my opinion, he was looking for an excuse.
