Out of the mouth of Babe Cop

Black Buddha 1

• It's like it's a big neon sign over my head. "Commissioner's daughter. Proceed with extreme caution."...

• [to Nick] They really let you drive this fossil?

• Tracy: I heard that you were allergic to the daylight? Phototropic, or something?
  
  Nick: Yeah.
  
  Tracy: So why the convertible?

• You're full of it, Vachon.

• Tracy: Three people are unaccounted for. Two women seated over the wing, and a twenty-five year old Toronto man, no known means of support.

Vachon: Do I look like a slacker to you?

Tracy: What you are, I have no idea, but I'll bet you're a dead ringer forJ.D. Valdez.

Black Buddha 2

• You will take me out of this sewer immediately. Do you have any idea how many diseases are represented down here? Some of us can actually die from them, you know.

• Reese: Isn't that what you were wearing last night?

  Tracy: As a matter of fact it is, Captain. Worse for wear, but it is the very same jeans and t-shirt.

• Night shift--it takes it out of me.  I always need a good hit of coffee for the drive home.

Outside the Lines

• If I impress my father, it'll be because of something I've done, thank you.

• You don't know what it's like to doubt someone you've trusted all your life!

• Bruce: Look, you've gotta be tough. That's what the trash knows, that's what they respect.

  Tracy: No it's not. It's what they get.

Blackwing

• Tracy: Yeah. Power animal of the medicine man. Iktomi the Trickster bird. He was a very popular icon in native culture. He stole the sun from his brother, and gave it to the world...
  
  [Natalie and Nick are staring at her in surprise, so she grins.]
  
  Tracy: Sixth grade. Girl Guides. Merit badge in Native American culture.

• You know, my whole family's cops. When I was a little kid, I kind of thought everyone was a cop. So when I went to college, I tried pre-med, pre-law, computers. Anything but another Officer Vetter. But you know what? I am a good cop. Sometimes I think
  we're just meant to do what we're meant to do.

• Tracy: Let's talk Mr. Concerned Citizen.

  Vachon: You saw me on television.

  Tracy: This was a side of you I was not aware of.

Blind Faith

My Boyfriend Is A Vampire

• Oh, no--not dead, Mr. Upton. Just... ssssssstt... [She pantomimes a cutting motion in the general neighborhood of his groin.]   ...a little less of a man.

• But that's part of any relationship, isn't it? It works both ways. Sometimes we use, sometimes we get used.

• [to Vachon] Okay, now that I've expressly told you I don't need you help - I need your help. 

• I can just see it. They'll put me  in this tight spandex dress, cut up to here. And then neckline  somewhere down around my waist. Four-inch spikes. Leather. Babe- cop.

Hearts of Darkness

• Guys--do we really believe she came to a place like this  expecting flowers and poetry?   [Camera pan around the room. There are sexually explicit prints on the  walls, various S&M paraphernalia spread around.]

Trophy Girl

• [to Vachon] You know, you ought to keep that hypno thing in your holster!

• [to herself] Should have taken the three days off. But no, Tracy has to keep busy!

Let No Man Tear Asunder

• Vachon: So, what is this now? Every time you run across something really weird, you run to your supernatural chum, Vachon, for the inside dope?
  
  Tracy: Well, you're the only supernatural friend I have. [giving him a disarming grin]

Night In Question

Sons of Belial

• Nick, are you in there?

• That was some very elaborate put-on. Like the wizard said, 'Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain'.

Strings

• Don't worry, Ma'am, I wouldn't dream of using my head in here.

• Captain Forrest: What are you doing?
  Tracy: I'm being insubordinate.

Fever

• Augh. What is it about these places that always smell the  same? Like they use the same cleaning service--Lab Smell   Incorporated? Did you ever notice? It's like a cherry car  deodorizer, only not.

Dead of Night

• [to Nick about CERK] Sorry, Nick. That guy gets under my skin!

Games Vampires Play

• Tracy: Okay. Here's the deal: in the last few weeks I have been swamped with paperwork. Our paperwork. Our arrest reports, our weapon discharge reports, our brief sheets, our requisitions, our case summaries, the works. I've had our paperwork up to here. Our paperwork. As in, you and me? So, my question to you, Nicholas B. Knight, is this: why am I doing all the paperwork myself? I mean, partners work together, right? So that means you should be helping me with the paperwork! You and me. Good. Got that off my chest, and, now, I feel much better. (pause) Nick?
  Nick: Yeah?
  T: Did you hear a word I said?
  N: Yeah, sure. You said you were feeling better, and that's good...Isn't it?
  T: *makes sound expressing her disbelief that Nick could be such a brick*

• Tracy: "What is wrong with you lately? You are so out of it!"
  Nick: "Out of what?"

• Nick! Reese is going to blow an important blood vessel if you don't stop pushing this!

• Nick! Someone is yanking your chain! You need a reality check,maybe. I don't know, but this is not you.

• So Rita, there's no get-out-of-jail-free card where you're going.

Human Factor

Avenging Angel

• Mrs. Vetter: "Well, I like to have a little drink on special occasions."
  Tracy: "Oh yeah? And what's so special about today? Let me guess. Wednesday?"

Fallen Idol

Jane Doe

Francesca

• [to Fuller] Go swallow a sock.

• Nick: Friend of your's?

  Tracy: Reporter, putting two and two together and getting five. I dated him once.

  Nick: Oh yeah, anything serious?

  Tracy: No. I mean, I dated him, once.

  Nick: Oh.

Ashes to Ashes
