Fritz: Is there anything special you want from Santa this year?
Brenda: Maybe an Albanian translator?
Fritz: Oh, you are so hard to shop for.

Brenda: I understand, Doctor, but there is a child involved here and we have to find out who killed his mother.
Doctor: God, that's terrible. In fact, it's stories like that that I am going to be completely forgetting while I'm in Palm Springs.

Deputy Chief Johnson, help me! I mean, how can I help you?

Mr. Johnson: We're moving to LA!
Brenda: You're what?
Fritz: They're moving here, they're looking for a house in our neighborhood; isn't that exciting?!

Brenda: And, for now, you get to be acting Chief.
Pope: Eh, livin' the dream.

Brenda: What else do these eleven stores have in common?
Provenza: Other than free love and patchouli oil?

Fritz: As a liaison to the LAPD, I could pass on some highly confidential info to you. But you'd have to get back in bed with me for five more minutes.
Brenda: Five minutes? Well, this clearly isn't going to be about me.

Brenda: (Holding up the Nazi tattoo design) This isn't enough proof of what Kevin was up to?
Raydor: No. (walks away)
Brenda: Bitch.

Brenda: And because the way Force Investigation Division operates, I'll be investigating murders of more good cops. Just like them.
Rayder: Excuse me?
Brenda: When officers are killed in the line of duty, they're investigated by me. When they shoot back, they're investigated by you. That means they'll think twice before defending themselves. That hesitation will mean more good cops will die. I have to ask, have you ever considered what your principles cost?

Pope: What's wrong?
Brenda: I just forgot to take Kitty ourt of my purse this morning.
Pope: Out of ... where is she?
Brenda: She's here.
Pope: I gather she took a turn for the worse.

Brenda: Lieutenant Flynn, your resignation surprised me most of all. The whole time I've been here, you've never said one complimentary thing about or to me.
Flynn: Chief, you have really great legs.

I'd like to start with you, Ms. Powell. I'd like to say how sorry I am that I was unable to ignore your general level of incompetence in the wrongly obtained conviction in the case of Bill Croelick. And I'm sorry if you felt hurt and defensive about putting a man on death row for the wrong crime, and I certainly hope that that will never, ever happen again. Agent Jackson, I deeply regret that the FBI handed over two million dollars to a man on a terrorist watch list without the capacity to trace it, or managed to follow him for months without knowing his wife was having an affair with a doctor, and I hope you do much better in the future. Captain Taylor, I suppose I should apologize to you for not having been born in Los Angeles, but having seen you work up close now for several months, I can honestly say that try as I might, I can't think of any fair and reasonable system on earth where I wouldn't outrank you. There. I hope that clears everything up.

The Closer Quotes

[To Sgt. Gabriel] I should probably explain that I do not form my relationships with people based on how they're treating you. That would be your mother, maybe.

Brenda

If I liked being called a bitch to my face, I'd still be married.
