Julian Acosta: Steve Preciado

Quotes 

• Steve Preciado : This is *our* arrest. Always has been. We got no time to wait for your *mommy*!

  Kimball Cho : Hey, there's always time. All right? Let's do this right. Go in too quickly and someone could get hurt.

  Steve Preciado : This is *real* police work, sonny! People get hurt.

• Teresa Lisbon : Look I don't want to make this official, talk to a judge or anything. Once we do that, the cat's out of the bag for good. If you're clean on this, here's the way to prove it.

  [Prciado hands his weapon to Lisbon. Jane grabs Preciado's wrist] 

  Teresa Lisbon : Is this the only .38 in your possession.

  Steve Preciado : Yes it is.

  [Angrily to Jane] 

  Steve Preciado : And if you try to hold my hand again, I'm going to tear your arm off and beat you unconscious with it! Get me?

  Patrick Jane : Gotcha.
