  Jim Rockford : Now what is that suppose to mean? I got kidnapped by two guys, and they beat the poo out of me, I'm making a legitimate complaint. What do you mean, "don't count on too much," I'm counting on you and this girl scout troop in here, to solve it.

  Police Det. Dennis Becker : Shut up, will ya? What do I have to do, spell it out for you? You know, you're not exactly Princess Margaret in this department. Every time you come in here with a bloody nose, morale goes up ten points, and if I weren't a buddy of yours I wouldn't even type this up. OK?
