Quotes 

• Matt Lee Whitlock : I gave her the Scarcetti money.

  Chae : Godd...

  Matt Lee Whitlock : SHHH.

  Chae : Would you have given it to me if I slept with you?

• Agent Strark : The guy never showed up, Whitlock.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Agent Stark...

  Agent Strark : Yeah. You know, I don't care if you're injured or not - I want that evidence money... or you're gonna be looking at a case of your own...

  Chae : [walking up to Whitlock with a gym bag]  Hey. Hey. Where the hell is Southeast 63rd street in Miami?

  Matt Lee Whitlock : 53rd street, Chae.

  Chae : No.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : I told you 53rd street, not 63rd.

  Chae : No, you did not.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Yes I did.

  Chae : You did not.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Southeast...

  Chae : I can quote you. You said: "Those assholes from the DEA are at 8400, Southeast 63rd street."

  Matt Lee Whitlock : No I did not. I'm very sorry. What I said, was: 'Those assholes from the DEA are at 8400, Southeast 53rd', Chae.

  Chae : 63rd.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Fifty... never mind - just give 'em the money. Give 'em the money. Give 'em the money.

  [to agent Stark] 

  Matt Lee Whitlock : You don't have to count it, it's all there. Have a safe ride home.

  Agent Strark : [to the two other agents]  Come on.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : [to Chae, after agent Stark left]  It is all there, is it?

  Chae : Mmh, most of it... it's all there.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : That was pretty good, eh?

  Chae : Mmh, was a little over the top...

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Over the top? Which part?

  Chae : Your part.

• Chae : A beer in the hand is worth two in the fridge.

• Chae : Matt, this is the gold pot, at the end of the storm... thing... cloud!

• Alex Diaz Whitlock : [mentioning the charred bodies in the ruins of the Harrison house]  Do you know who they are?

  Chae : I think it's definitely 'were'.

• Chae : [handing over the autopsy results]  Hey - got a surprise for ya: Both of 'em were already dead when somebody turned them into smores.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : What?

  Alex Diaz Whitlock : Both of 'em?

  Chae : No sign of smoke in their lungs. If they'd been alive when the place went up, their lungs would look like mine.

• Chae : Well, any trace of the money?

  Matt Lee Whitlock : None.

  Chae : Oh, man, I thought I had trouble with women. Well, maybe you should just tell her.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Who, Alex?

  Chae : Yeah. Tell Alex.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Are you out of your mind? I'm not telling Alex. I mean, look what they've got on me. Motive. Ann Merai names me beneficiary on her insurance policy, and I was having an affair with her. Opportunity. An eyewitness saw me outside their house the night it blew up. You want to hear some more?

  Chae : Alibi?

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Home, by myself.

  Chae : So, that good? Well, at least you changed your cell phone number.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Yeah, I'm lucky. I mean, even if Alex wanted to believe me, there's so much evidence against me, she'd have to turn me in.

  Chae : Yeah, you're right. You're right. Anyway, that'd probably kill any chance of getting back together with her.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Yeah, you're probably... what?

  Chae : Well, I'm saying, she walks out here right now, she says "Let's call the divorce off. Let's get back together."

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Man, what are you talking about?

  Chae : I'm just saying...

  Matt Lee Whitlock : I'm looking... I'm looking at murder charges, and...

  Chae : You know, I'm just saying, the gal's a peach. I don't know what you were thinking in the first place. Never mind. Forget it. Can I do anything?

  Matt Lee Whitlock : You don't think obstruction of justice is enough?

  Chae : I'm on a roll.

• Alex Diaz Whitlock : Easy, Chae. He can't take that money.

  Chae : What?

  Matt Lee Whitlock : I can't take the money?

  Chae : Why not?

  Alex Diaz Whitlock : No, you can't. It's a conflict of interest.

  Chae : Bullshit.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Yeah, that is a conflict...

  Chae : He's the legal beneficiary.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : I am the legal beneficiary.

  Alex Diaz Whitlock : And he's one of the arresting officers.

  Chae : Well, what the hell's that got to do with anything?

  Matt Lee Whitlock : I'm one of the arresting officers, though. I can't...

  Chae : So what?

  Alex Diaz Whitlock : Well, he could get... tell him how much trouble you can get in.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : A lot.

• Chae : [pointing on a stash of drug money in the open safe]  Is that it?

  Matt Lee Whitlock : That's it.

  Chae : Huh, man - 485 grand... can I touch it?

  Matt Lee Whitlock : No, you can't.

  Chae : I just want to touch it.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Get your hands outta there.

  Chae : Maybe I'll just steal it.

  Matt Lee Whitlock : Maybe I'll just shoot you, Chae...

  Chae : Yeah, yeah, yeah. Stop thinking like a cop for five seconds, alright?

• Matt Lee Whitlock : Just never leave your wife. That's what happened to me.

  Chae : [laconically]  I'd take the bullet.
