Quotes 

• Harry Orwell : You playing games with me?

  Lt. K.C. Trench : Perhaps. Off the record, Orwell, this does look like a setup.

  Harry Orwell : Yeah, and Sully's the patsy. Just suppose he called Hacktel and was invited here?

  Lt. K.C. Trench : Then somebody would have a golden opportunity and a perfect alibi.

• Lt. K.C. Trench : I get in this morning and find a phone message on my desk informing me that a Mr. Harry Orwell is interested in talking to me about an elderly black trumpet player.

  Harry O : Yeah, he took my car and I want it back.

  Lt. K.C. Trench : By an intriguing coincidence, I too am interested in the whereabouts of just such a character, one Arthur Daniels, professional name Art Sully.

  Harry O : That's him.

  Lt. K.C. Trench : A convicted murderer who has violated parole. Why didn't you tell me about him yesterday when you reported the theft?

  Harry O : I thought I could handle it then. And I didn't know he had a gun.

  Lt. K.C. Trench : He has a gun?

  Harry O : And he's got my car. And I think he's drunk and he's driving my car.

  Lt. K.C. Trench : How many ways are there to violate your parole? Thanks, Orwell.

  Harry O : Hey, listen, is this gonna send him back?

  Lt. K.C. Trench : Like a Billie Jean backhand.

• Lt. K.C. Trench : That's right. But that's procedure. I have to follow through on procedure. You know that.

  Harry O : Procedure. You're not giving him a chance.
