- Officer Jim Corrigan: What's Dietrich's problem, is it the job, or is it something personal?
- Sgt. T.J. Hooker: Think it's a lotta both. Mostly it's his wife.
- Officer Jim Corrigan: Does she play around?
- Sgt. T.J. Hooker: Oh, not with other guys, with Sam's money. She likes to live big...
- Officer Jim Corrigan: Then she shouldn't have married a cop.
- Officer Vince Romano: So what's this guy's name?
- Sgt. T.J. Hooker: Milo Pie.
- Officer Vince Romano: You're kidding?
- Sgt. T.J. Hooker: No, but I think his mother was.
- Laura Dietrich: Hooker, tell me something: why won't you let us in? Why are all of you so damn macho? You push us out, create a distance, the only way you relate is in terms of law and logic. Not with honest emotions.
- Sgt. T.J. Hooker: [to Dietrich] You look like yesterday's leftovers. I guess I don't have to ask why, do I?
- Detective Sam Dietrich: Thanks... you bought me an extra pass...
- Sgt. T.J. Hooker: You know what you almost bought me? A ticket to the graveyard. You're dangerous man, you're lethal. To yourself and everybody around you.
- Detective Sam Dietrich: I'm sorry... I really am.
- Sgt. T.J. Hooker: Sorry doesn't cut it any more!
