John Mills: [with the fellas] I mean, what kind of a moron tries to flush body parts down a toilet, especially when he's got a perfectly good furnace out back.
[laughter]
[first lines]
Edmund Cutler: [knife to her neck] I can hear your heart beating. Sounds like you've got an animal in your chest, trying to get out. Sounds like blood. Sounds like flesh.
[starts unzipping her jacket]
Edmund Cutler: What's this? *What* *is* *this*?
Jessica Shepard: It's my gun.
[suddenly overpowers him and he's on the ground]
Edmund Cutler: Don't hurt me!
Wilson Jefferson: [Over the radio] We heard everything, commissioner.
Jessica Shepard: [smugly] You remember my old patrol partner Wilson don't you?
John Mills: You're father had that same look in his eyes! I told him about her!
[shouts]
John Mills: I HAD TOO! HE WAS MY PARTNER! YOU TELL YOU'RE PARTNER EVERYTHING... YOU ALWAYS TELL YOU'RE PARTNER THE TRUTH! I TOLD HIM SHE WAS FUCKING THAT HIPPIE SCUM! HE LOST HIS MIND HE RAN IN THE HOUSE I HEARD ARGUING
[Mike comes round behind him]
John Mills: LOOK ALL MY LIFE I WISH I...
[sees Mike bolting out of the door]
John Mills: HEY!
[punches Jessica]
Edmund Cutler: [goading her through the jail bars] We all have the capacity to kill! You... Me... Anyone! The problem is control.
[last lines]
Jessica Shepard: [cradling a drugged hypothermic Mike] I'm so sorry I thought you were the guy.
Mike Delmarco: [smiles] I am the guy.
John Mills: [his last line aiming his gun at Mike] TEST
Jessica Shepard: NO
[shoots him off the dock]
Jessica Shepard: You killed them all
John Mills: They were scum... they didn't deserve you
Mike Delmarco: You've made enemies already.
Jessica Shepard: Step away from Mike
John Mills: Don't you understand?
Jessica Shepard: Understand what?
John Mills: [shouts] I'M DOING THIS FOR YOU!
