E.J. Bonilla: Denny Padilla

Quotes 

• Denny Padilla : We got security footage from around the plastics company. A black van was headed away from Real Plastics seven minutes before you guys got there. None of the other factories claim it as their own. Boom. We got a BOLO out.

  Al Burns : Good. Homeland intercept any communications about shipping weapons out of New York? Anything like that?

  Denny Padilla : Yeah, they're thinking it's probably a local target. They're checking domestic chatter.

  Al Burns : There's some peace summit. Midtown. I saw it on the news. Jay, check it out.

  Denny Padilla : [Jay runs a search]  Whoa, guys, we're talking about the South Asian Cooperation Summit. The prime ministers of India and Pakistan are meeting at the Omni Hotel.

  Al Burns : Tell Homeland to go to the Omni on 47th.

  Jay Lee : Oh, hey, hey, guys, guys. Hold on, I got a hit on Sartain's personal car. He just blew by a traffic cam coming off the Hutch, near Westchester Airport. There's a second male in the car. Looks like he's traveling with his war buddy Lushing.

  Al Burns : Skipping town before the fireworks.

  [to Denny] 

  Al Burns : Go with Homeland, find that van, I'll get Carrie and Eddie, go to the airport, grab Sartain.

  Denny Padilla : Roger that.

• Carrie Wells : [in a firefight]  We go on three.

  Denny Padilla : Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa. You don't want to evaluate the situation real quick?

  Carrie Wells : [firing two rounds]  I just did.

• Al Burns : That guy's a mobster?

  Denny Padilla : Hey, hey, hey. Don't let his baby face fool you. Guy's a killer. Before he takes you out, he makes you look right up at him...

  [pantomiming] 

  Denny Padilla : I mean, like, makes you, you know? Then he kills you. Guy's a psycho.

  Carrie Wells : [remembering bruises on the victims]  He grabs their faces. Which could leave bruising on their jaws, right?

  Denny Padilla : Sure.

  Carrie Wells : Okay, both of the DeMars brothers had bruising on their jaws consistent with someone grabbing their face just like that.

  [demonstrating on Al] 

  Carrie Wells : Let's go pay your friend Vlad a visit.

• Jay Lee : All right, so these are guys who would all have an interest in outsiders bringing meth into New York.

  Al Burns : Paulie Fitzgerald? I put that guy away a couple years back.

  Jay Lee : Prison overcrowding. He's out, Al.

  Al Burns : I don't see him as an execution-style killer.

  Eddie Martin : Yeah, so who's our prom king over there?

  Denny Padilla : [Jay pulls up a rap sheet]  Oh, yeah, that's Vlad Nostrov. Hey, I've had the pleasure. Jay-bone.

  Jay Lee : Uh, it's... it's just Jay, man.

• Denny Padilla : Listen, about Carrie. And that hot new M.E. running around here, what, Delina? Right? Right?

  Jay Lee : Okay, you do realize there's no actual thought there, right?

  Denny Padilla : Yeah.

  Jay Lee : Okay.

  Denny Padilla : I'm just saying, the both of them. Hot. Hot stuff.

  Jay Lee : Agreed. Dibs on Delina.

  Denny Padilla : Dibs? What are we, twelve? Come on, hot detective, hot new M.E., you know? Come on, you never thought about a threesome with that-that technical head of yours?

  Jay Lee : [seeing Al]  No, dude, come on.

  Denny Padilla : What, is it too much? Come on.

  Al Burns : Yeah, definitely too much.

• Austin : You bastard, Al. Why'd you punch me so hard?

  Al Burns : Had to sell it for the crackheads, huh?

  Austin : Thought you'd appreciate it.

  Denny Padilla : Hey, what the hell's going on here?

  Al Burns : Denny Padilla, meet Austin Caswell, Detective second grade, Queens Narcotics. Denny here likes to ask a lot of questions.

  Denny Padilla : Ah, son of a bitch.

  Austin : What's on your mind?

  Al Burns : Five barrels of methylamine went missing right before Vlad was killed. You hear anything?

  Austin : No. And I won't. No way Vlad's buying methylamine right now.

  Al Burns : Why's that?

  Austin : Doesn't need to. There's more out there than there are buyers.

  Al Burns : So why take out two couriers just to get his hands on it?

  Austin : Something's not right. Cooks are overstocked up and down the east coast. Believe me, Vlad's not burning anyone over methylamine these days.
