"In the spirit of interdepartmental cooperation," "I will allow you to make the buy so that you can keep the guns... off your precious Miami streets." "But you get one thing straight."

"Gusman sent me here to check you out." "Man wants to make a deal in the worst kind of way." "Look, slim, I ain't exactly thrilled at the turn of events either, but I thought I'd try to make it palatable." "You want out?" "Introduce me to your partner." " I'll work with him." " I won't do that." "I'm stayin' in." "And you and me, we're not friends." "We're not partners." "We're not old buddies." "No between-inning dugout chats." "We make the buy, it's over, and you're out of here." "Since when do you got the stones to tell me what to do?" "Get the hell off my..." "Come on, Crockett." "Let's have it out." "You and me." "Twenty paces." "Back to back." "What do you say?" "[Clicks Tongue, Chuckles] I'm cool." "I'm cool." "Huh?" "One for you, one for me." "Let's go together." "Hmm?" "Hah?" "Huh?" "Huh?" " I'm not impressed, Evan." " Oh, you don't think I'd do it." "Do ya?" "[Chuckles] Whoa!" "Crockett!" "Here's one with your name on it." "Did you ever think that, Sonny?" "That there's a bullet somewhere with your name on it?" "You're a sick man, Freed." "Tell me, Sonny." "How's it feel to be perfect?" "Gusman's givin' you a dry run." "Five pieces." "American Scrap Metal. 8:00." "I'll be lookin' for ya." "[Clicks Tongue]" "Well, there really wasn't very much in the file." "Evan used to work with Crockett and a guy named Mike Orgel." "Orgel got killed in the line of duty." "Mean anything to you?" "Not really." "Well, after Evan left Vice, he became a real rock and roller." "Signed up for every suicide train that came down the track." "Thanks a lot, Gina." "I owe you one." "You owe me more than one." "[Engine Roaring]" "Sonny, who was Mike Orgel?" "[Brakes Screeching]" "Don't run around me, Tubbs." "What's gotten into you, man?" "You got a problem, and I'm just tryin' to help you with it." "Is that what you call it?" "What'd you do, pull Freed's jacket?" "Look, I wouldn't have had to pull his jacket if you'd have just been straight with me." "It's none of your business." "[Scoffs] Excuse the hell out of me." "We happen to be involved in an operation." "And if something is goin' down between you and our middleman, then I need to know it!" "There's nothin' goin' down." "You don't need to know anything." "And where the hell do you come off demanding that I bare my soul to you?" "You're my partner, not my priest!" "Hey, hey, hey!" "Don't be coppin' no attitude, man." "'Cause I don't need to hear it." "You wanna drop the friendship, and just be partners, so be it." "So be it." "Solid." "[Revving Engine, Screeching Tires]" "There has been one small change in the deal." " Wait a second." " Each item will now cost 3,000." "No way, Gusman." "2,400." "That's the number we set with your man here." "Others have made me a better offer." "We made a deal, pal." "So what?" "I gave that man a price." "Gusman." "[Snickering] Go ahead, Gusman!" "Shoot." "Come on!" "You did this in Bananaland all the time." "He used to shoot people just for bein' left-handed." "Go ahead." "Get it over with." "I don't care." "It's a graveyard." "Of sorts." "Do it!" "Then try and do business in Miami without me." "[Uncocks Gun]" "2,400!" "[Tubbs] Sold." "Tell me again how there's nothin' gonna go down." "[Tubbs Speaking French]" "Oh, I don't know." "If I let you take me home, you might expect me to sleep with you." "Not a wink." "[Laughing] [Laughing]" "Let me tell my ride." "[Slurping, Kissing]" "I need to talk to you." "You know where my desk is." "Office hours are from 9:00 to 5:00, partner." "Rico, my head's been spinnin' in about 1,000 different directions." "[Sighs]" "Give me a chance to explain." "I'm ready." "[Sighs]" "Michelle." "Yes?" "Michelle..." "Something's come up, and I would definitely love a rain check." "I bet you would." "[Sighs]" "It all happened right here." "Mike Orgel was off duty." "According to the report, some guy on angel dust was wavin' a 12-gauge shotgun." "Around right here." "Orgel didn't call for backup, nothin'." "Just walks right in." "Gets both barrels right in the chest." "Sounds brave." "It was suicide." "'Course, that's not the way they wrote it up." "Were you two guys... tight?" "Yeah. [Sighs] Me, and Mike, and... believe it or not, Evan Freed." "Freed?" "I don't see how anybody could hang with that dude." "[Chuckles]" "There was a time..." "[Laughs]" "The three of us did some serious hell-raising." "We all went through the academy together, like... the Three Musketeers." "And then what?" "And then we hit the streets." "Green as hell." "[Exhales] It was a long time ago." "We got assigned to do a shakedown on these dance joints." "Dealin' poppers." "Mike wanted off the gig." "No big deal." "Turns out there were a couple of gay bars." "So, one day..." "Evan starts razzin' him, you know, good-natured stuff." "Sayin' stuff like," "Mike'd be afraid somebody would recognize him." "And then he went and told us the truth." "Somebody would recognize him." "He was in the closet." "He was gay." "How'd you handle it?" "I didn't." "At the time..." "I didn't know how to handle that." "L..." "Hell, I couldn't say anything." "You're allowed." "Evan really freaked." "All of a sudden, it was "faggot" this and "faggot" that." "And then he put in for a transfer." "What about Orgel?" "What'd he do?" "What could he do?" "Next day they shoved a desk at him." "Started lookin' for ways to dump him." "I didn't stick up for him." "He was my friend." "I failed him." "I couldn't find a way to handle it." "You had the right feelings." "Yeah, but I didn't do anything about it." "What could you do, man?" "You didn't know how." "They don't teach that in the academy." "You learn it in the street." "In the world." "In our hearts." "Where I know you have it." "I don't know." "You better know." "'Cause I don't pass up beautiful girls like Michelle for nothin' less." "[Chuckles] [Laughs]" "You know something, Tubbs?" "[Laughing] What?" "You ain't half bad." "Ditto." "[Laughs]" "Now you..." "You can drive your tired partner home." "[Laughing] Come on." "Good." "Thanks a lot." "Been lookin' for you guys." " [Clears Throat]" " You're drunk." "[Grunts]" " Give us a moment, will ya, pal?" " Stick around." "[Tubbs] Yeah, I gotta go see my broker, anyway." "Let's you and me have a drink." "Man to man." "That's right, Crockett." "I'm a real man." "A real man makes mistakes." "I made one with Mike." "And I've paid." "A real man thinks." "And he changes." "A real man uses his brains." "If he's lucky, after a couple of years, he gets wisdom." "But you..." "You still want to hang that rap on me." "[Breathes Heavily] Well, buddy, I found more ways... to hang that rap on myself than you or the devil will ever know about!" "[Sniffles]" "Is that why you've tried to catch a bullet for years?" "What's that?" "Adjustment?" "[Sobs] Forgive me, Sonny." "Say you forgive me!" "[Sobbing]" "Please!" "[Crying] Come on, Evan." "Make me happy, Sonny." "Make me happy!" "[Gasping] I'm so damn sorry!" "[Continues Sobbing] Evan, come on." "[Knocking]" "[Laughs]" "[Clears Throat] OI' Papa Gusman took the bait." "Tonight we reel him in." "[Chuckles, Clicks Tongue]" "[Sighs] Midnight." "Shipyard." "Don't be late." "[Tubbs] What the hell was that all about?" "[Doors Bang]" "Confession and redemption." "And a guy hanging' by a string." "Nice place." "Phew." "Yeah." "I love the smell of industry and stagnant water." "Reminds me of home." "You can't carry it around forever." "They're late." "Doesn't matter." "You know, you're not, uh... doin' anybody any favors." "God, I hate the waiting more than anything." "You've both been livin' with it all this time." "It's been eating away at you." "And now, there's a chance for you to lay it to rest." "I can't." "You got the courage to do this job, every day." "Have the courage to tell Evan what it is you have to say." "I'll think about it." "If we pull this off, you may not see him again." "If we don't, it won't matter." "It's goin' down." "Stand by." " Gentlemen." " You're late." " Traffic was busy." " We didn't see any." "It doesn't appear you brought the money."
