Stephen Baldwin: Mechanic

Quotes 

• Mechanic : So, you're a cop?

  Det. Catherine Palmer : Yeah. You like that?

  Mechanic : Yeah. What do you work, vice?

  Det. Catherine Palmer : Homicide.

  Mechanic : That's a little weird, isn't it? I mean, you being a woman and all?

  Det. Catherine Palmer : [pause]  What do you do?

  Mechanic : Mechanic. I fix things.

  Det. Catherine Palmer : Say you got an old lady, she comes into the shop. She's driving a '72 Chevy, she's hearing a little ticking noise. Turns out she's got a busted transmission, gonna cost her 2,000 bucks. Only thing is, she doesn't have any money. What are you gonna do?

  Mechanic : I'd say 'I don't fucking care.'

  Det. Catherine Palmer : You're looking at someone's mother, pal. And all you see is an old lady with a busted-up car and not enough cash. All I ever see... people's dead mothers. Just a name on a file... guy in a dumpster, girl in a landfill, little dead boy in a park. Can you fix that?
