- Lt. Theo Kojak: You know why you're here, Marty?
- Marty: Yeah. Sometimes I black out.
- Lt. Theo Kojak: You OD'd, baby!
- Lt. Theo Kojak: Yeah, mojo, morphine, Mephistopheles, pins and needles, eeh... cubes, Aunt Emma. There are a dozen street names for it.
- Lt. Theo Kojak: Look, a stick-up man is a stick-up man. A robber is a robber and a hijacker is a hijacker. That's what they do: the rob, they steal and they hijack. They don't peddle morphine on the streets!
- Capt. Frank McNeil: Maybe they sold the whole load, split. Maybe the idea of sending in a chemist spooked them.
- Lt. Theo Kojak: And maybe they give away door prizes at the tombs.
- Lt. Theo Kojak: I see you got a new plant.
- Det. Stavros: Yeah. Shirley's lonely.
- Lt. Theo Kojak: Oh really? Eh, tell me, how could you tell?
- Det. Stavros: Well, her leaves are drooping down. And, eh, she's not her same gay, vibrant, effervescent, ebullent self.
- Lt. Theo Kojak: Ebullent self, huh? Well, she might have, eh, heartburn. Did you ever think of that?
- Det. Stavros: That's why I got Sam.
- Floyd: [on phone] Well you gotta be fresh out of marbles. 'Cause already I got a beanbag sitting in the narco ward that's gonna crumble like a bacon powder biscuit the moment the fuzz jumps on 'em. And now you're asking me to sit still for a visit from the heat?
- Marty: [to Kojak] You do what you gotta do. But you ain't gonna bust me up like some kinda cheap watch. You can bust my jaws if you want, that's your thing, but all you're going to get's a whole lot of ouches.
