State Security Chief Donovan: You won't.
Det. Thorn: Turn the air conditioning way up.
Shirl: Way up! We'll make it as cold as winter used to be.

Det. Thorn: Because it's your job. Besides, you love me.
Det. Thorn: Who bought you?
Hatcher: You're bought as soon as they pay you a salary.

Det. Thorn: You know, there are 20 million guys out of work in Manhattan alone just waiting for my job.
