 Jack Webb QuotationMovie Title: Dragnet (1951) as Sergeant Joe Friday / Sgt. Joe Friday: Sgt. Joe Friday : This is the city: Los Angeles, California. I work here. I'm a cop. Sgt. Joe Friday : We could've piled up a hundred years of great policemen and great detectives: men with honor and brains and guts. You tore down every best part of them. The people who read it in the papers, they're gonna overlook the fact that WE got you; that we washed our own laundry and we cleared this thing up. They're gonna overlook all the good. They'll overlook every last good cop in the country. But they'll remember YOU. Because you're a bad cop. Sgt. Joe Friday : All we know are the facts, ma'am. Officer Frank Smith : Christmas cards, huh? A little late, aren't you? Sergeant Joe Friday : Well, I was going to send them out Monday, but we had that stakeout. Sergeant Joe Friday : Do the youngsters know what these goofballs are made of, son? Sergeant Joe Friday : No, sir, it's no mistake. Marijuana. Movie Title: Dragnet 1967 (1967) as Sergeant Joe Friday / Friday: Friday : You're pretty high and far out. What kind of kick are you on, son? Friday : There are over five thousand men in this city who know that being a policeman is an endless, glamorless, thankless job that's gotta be done. I know it, too. And I'm damned glad to be one of them. Friday : Don't you con me with your mind-expansion slop. I deal with kids every day. I try to clean up the mess that people like you make out of 'em. I'm the expert here. You're not. [Forrester glares at his unconscious wife] Harvey Forrester : Lousy stinking drunk. Friday : Don't knock her, Forrester, she had a reason to drink - she was married to you. Friday : Unless you're growin' sit down. Detective: The first two blows to face with the hammer killed him. Friday : Yea, and the next four changed his personality. Sergeant Joe Friday : By the way, what do you do for a living? Systems Analyst : I'm a systems analyst, myself. Sergeant Joe Friday : Oh? What's a systems analyst do? Systems Analyst : I analyze systems. Sergeant Joe Friday : Makes sense. Sergeant Joe Friday : The subject was booked under Section 601 - in danger of leading an idle, dissolute, or immoral life. Friday : Flinch and you'll be chasing your head down Main Street! [a young couple let their toddler drown in a bathtub while they were stoned] Officer Bill Gannon : After twenty-five years on the job, it's finally happened. Friday : What's that, Bill? Officer Bill Gannon : I'm going to be sick. [hands the bag of marijuana to Friday and runs out of the room] Movie Title: Dragnet 1966 (1969) as Sergeant Joe Friday / Sgt. Joe Friday: Sergeant Joe Friday : Now you listen to me, you gutter-mouth punk. I've dealt with you before, and every time I did, it took me a month to wash off the filth. I'll tell you what you did to that four-year old girl out in Westlake Park: you staked out a bench like you've always done. You bought a sack of penny candy; you waited until the right little girl came along... You got her in your car. She started to cry; you hit her across the mouth twice. You cut her lip with your ring. Knocked out three of her teeth. And then you know what you did to her... Now, I didn't say that, Rockwell, you did. That's exactly what you told those officers who arrested you. They advised you of your constitutional rights before you opened your mouth. Now you're trying to tell us you didn't understand. Well, you're a liar... Like every hoodlum since Cain up through Capone, you've learned to hide behind some quirk in the law. And mister, you are a two-bit hoodlum. You've fallen twice for A.D.W. Burglary, three times. Twice for forcible rape; I tagged you for those. And now you've graduated: you've moved to the sewer. You're a child molester. Sgt. Joe Friday : Let's go, Markell, you're going downtown. Ricky Markell : I ain't gonna talk to you there, either. Sgt. Joe Friday : Well now, you don't have to. Shelton copped out, told me the whole story, he said you stabbed the guy and shot him three times, once in the right temple. Ricky Markell : Max didn't tell you that! Sgt. Joe Friday : He said it was your show, all he did was throw the mustard power in his face, just wanted to roll him, but you were so geed up you had to cut him open. Ricky Markell : Maxie's a liar! Movie Title: Dragnet (1954) as Sgt. Joe Friday: Max Troy : I still need that ash tray. Sgt. Joe Friday : You've got the Cadillac - drive over here and get it! Sgt. Joe Friday : Unless you're growin, sit down! Captain R.A. Lohrman, Homicide: What about the victim, you think Starkey was in trouble? Sgt. Joe Friday : He was at 4 o'clock this afternoon. Max Troy : This gonna take long? Sgt. Joe Friday : You've got the time. Max Troy : Mine's worth money, yours isn't! Sgt. Joe Friday : Send in a bill. Max Troy : I asked you a question! Sgt. Joe Friday : You're here to answer 'em, not ask 'em! [Friday has unsuccessfully interrogated Chester Davitt] Captain James E. Hamilton, Intelligence : He won't cop out. Sgt. Joe Friday : He can smell the gas. [Hamilton and Friday read the Dead Body, or DB, report on Miller Starkey] Captain James E. Hamilton, Intelligence : Shotgun, extreme close range, double-O. Starkey was hit four times, first two cut him in half. Sgt. Joe Friday : The second two turned him into a crowd. Max Troy : Now you listen to me, cop, I pay your salary! Sgt. Joe Friday : All right, sit down, I'm gonna earn it! Doctor : I'm sorry, was Mr. Troy a friend of yours? Sgt. Joe Friday : No sir, we hardly knew him. [an eyewitness is afraid to testify] Jesse Quinn : Mr. Friday, I'd like to ask you a question. If you was me, would you do it? Sgt. Joe Friday : Can I wait awhile? Jesse Quinn : Huh? Sgt. Joe Friday : Before I'm you. Movie Title: The Drill Instructor (1957) as TSgt Moore: TSgt Moore : Private Owens! Was the sand flea you killed male or female? Pvt. Owens : Male, sir! TSgt Moore : Then this ain't it. Keep looking. TSgt Moore : Out on that drill field yesterday, you people were miserable. You people ain't even a mob. A mob's got a leader. You people are a herd. I'm gonna get me a sheep dog! |
