- Sam McCloud: Chief, I can understand your need for peace and quiet, but I got a powerful need of my own, and it's not satisfied in Central Files. I'm here to learn big city police techniques, and you learn by doin', not by sittin' on your can in Central Files!
- Sam McCloud: Well, that's alright, Sergeant, I'll get a bottle of liniment, rub it in all the right places, and you'll feel like a new man. So will I.
- Sgt. Mildred Cross: I warn you, McCloud...
- Sam McCloud: I'm just trying to be friendly.
- Sgt. Mildred Cross: I don't want your friendship, I just wanna be treated as an equal while I'm wearing this uniform.
- Sam McCloud: Oh, what happens when it comes off?
- Sgt. Mildred Cross: Can't you forget I'm a woman?
- Sam McCloud: [chuckles] Oh, well, that's pretty hard to ignore.
- Sgt. Mildred Cross: You haven't even tried!
- Peter B. Clifford: They got any prints on that van?
- Sgt. Joe Broadhurst: Hundreds. Most of them smudged.
- Peter B. Clifford: Please, Broadhurst, my head's swimming from all the progress we've been making. Why don't you throw in something negative just to balance the ledger?
- Sam McCloud: [When first sees Sergeant Cross at the mounted unit training session] Well hello there, little lady!
- Sgt. Mildred Cross: Sergeant.
- Sam McCloud: Huh?
- Sgt. Mildred Cross: I'm not a little lady, I'm a sergeant.
