Lt. Ethan Bishop : How did you come by a name like Napoleon Wilson?
Napolean Wilson : I'll tell you some time.
Lt. Ethan Bishop : When will you tell me?
[the street gang breaks through the barricade and rush at Bishop and Wilson]
Napolean Wilson : Make that in a minute or two!
-
Lt. Ethan Bishop : [shoves cop violently to one side] Get away from him!
[to Wilson]
Lt. Ethan Bishop : It would be a privilege if you'd walk outside with me.
Napoleon Wilson : [deadpan] I know it would.

Wilson : That basement's not a bad place to be if they come at us again. The only way in aside from the vent is through that long narrow hallway. We might be able to hold them back for a couple of minutes... at best.
Lt. Ethan Bishop : We'd be trapped down there. No chance of escape.
Wilson : Well, we're not going to last one minute up here with only eight shots between us. The upstairs is out. It's flat, wide open up there. No cover at all.
Lt. Ethan Bishop : [after a pause; confident tone] Someone will come.
Wilson : A man with faith. That's a rare quality.
[to Leigh]
Wilson : What about you?
Leigh : I've never had much faith in anyone coming to my rescue.
Wilson : Maybe you've been associating with the wrong kind of people.
Leigh : I've worked with police officers for five years.

Wells : Look, they've moved the cars.
Bishop : I can't belive it. They parked them where they were before.
Wells : Why'd they do that?
Wilson : From a distance, the street looks normal. Like nothing happened.
Bishop : Like nothing happened? They gunned down five police officers! A secretary, one prisoner, we kill a dozen of them, and that's nothing happened?
Bishop : Well, where are the bodies?
[Bishop looks down at the ground and notices nothing there]
Bishop : They took them away!
Wells : How'd they do it so fast?
Wilson : Maybe they got the good fairy to help them.
Wells : Oh, you really are a smart-ass!

Lt. Ethan Bishop : [looking at the maintenance hole, before Wells goes out] Looks pretty good to me.
Wilson : Looks like hell. It's all we got.
