- Rebecca Doyle: When were you gonna tell me about the $65,000?
- Vic Mackey: I wasn't.
- Rebecca Doyle: First you're being persecuted, then you're a prime suspect in a cop killing, and now you're just a cop on the take?
- Vic Mackey: Sometimes things crossed our path. Drugs, money. Sometimes we took a little to use later to help with intel on the street.
- Rebecca Doyle: Some just ended up in your pocket.
- Vic Mackey: I gave it to my ex, actually... Looks like Kavanaugh got to her.
- Rebecca Doyle: I am trying to defend you. Do you get that? I let your guys answer Kavanaugh's questions because I was told there was nothing to hide. If you really want me to help you, you better mend fences with your ex and me.
- Vic Mackey: We're not gonna have to worry about her.
- Rebecca Doyle: We need to find out what side she's on.
- Vic Mackey: Look, I got two autistic kids. There's special schools, there's doctors... No, that's bullshit. I'm not gonna use my kids as an excuse. It's bullshit.

- Vic Mackey: It was easy, all right? No fuss, no victims. I was clearing twice as many cases as anyone here. I worked my ass off, I knew I was making a difference, so I took some for me. Me. City got their money's worth. Trust me. But that was then. I'm not the same person now.
- Rebecca Doyle: Why? Because you got caught?
- Vic Mackey: Because I wanna still be a cop. Because I don't wanna be smeared and pushed out of my job by the same people who patted me on my back every time I brought some murdering rapist asshole in here. Because I can do better. But if I'm gonna have a second chance, I'm gonna need your help to get it.
