Sgt. T.J. Hooker : You Catholic, Romano?
Officer Vince Romano : Yes, sir.

Sgt. T.J. Hooker : What about doctors who make house calls? Repairmen who know how to fix things? And ballplayers who hustle? And boxers who get carried out of the ring, instead of quitting because of stomach cramps? And what about the death penalty for scum who take a human life and snuff it out like it's so much garbage? I've seen the past, gentlemen, and it works.

Sgt. T.J. Hooker : Romano, you got a partner! You lucked out: you got me!
