You're so great at imaging the worst.That's part of why you're good at your job.But try, just...For a minute, imaging something better.
-> And where there's no motive, there's no meaning.
-> Well, you only think there's no meaning 'cause you're looking for it.But meaning isn't something you find, chief Johnson. Something you give. Maybe send out of Reggie's murder. Well, that's up to us.
-> So what meaning would you say it had?
-> Well, i'd say that Reggie's death had brought this community closer together. Don't you think? Including the neighborhood and the police. Including you and me.
-> Now, that's something you don't see every day.
-> I can't believe you're falling for this.
-> What's a little paint, huh?
-> It's not gonna change anything. And tomorrow or next week, this wall's gonna be covered in graffiti again.
-> Well, until then...
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
-> Brenda, I have had it with her.
-> You're the one who said she could stay.
-> One week. It's up.
-> She's inconsiderate. She is difficult. She's completely self-centered.She's disrespectful.
-> She's 16. What else would she be? If you can't handle this...you're the one who wants kids.
-> I wanna be ignored and alienated by my own children,not someone else's. She's going home tonight.
-> We can't give up on her like her parents have. Like my parents have. If she leaves now and gets in trouble again...I think we ought to hold on to her for a little while longer...just so she knows she has someone that she can rely on.
-> Which is exactly what a good mother would say.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
-> Is this gonna be your attitude the whole day? Cause it is really irritating.
-> I'm not talking to you until I get my ipod and phone back.
-> Well, that's not happening until you apologize.
-> I apoliogized to uncle Fritz, and he accepted my apology.
-> Well, you didn't apologize to me yet. Which shouldn't be that hard to do. Considering I told you exactly what I want to hear.
-> I'm sorry, aunt Brenda, for drugging you with the pot brownies I made and putting uncle Fritz in a terrible position.
-> I'm not feeling it.
-> Oh, my god, forget it. I don't care.
-> Well, you better care because if I don't start believing that you've developed a thought in your head. Then when grandpa comes to pick you up next week...
