• Harold Lutz : Who the hell are you?

  Axel Foley : Uh, my name is Johnny Wish-Wishbone. Johnny Wishbone. And I am a psychic from the island of St. Croix. Yes, I am psychic from the island of St. Croix. And I read in the St. Croix Gazette that the Beverly Hills Police Department having some trouble figuring out crimes. So, what I did was come to Beverly Hills to help the police out. They tell me they don't want my help, they don't *need* my help, so I'm gonna go on my merry way. I'm a psychic! I am a psychic phenomenon. Watch this. I don't know who you are, but watch this. Ummm... Your name is, ummmm, Lutz! Right? Chief Lutz. That's your name. See? The name pop inside my head like that. And your name is, ummmmm, ummmmm...

  Biddle : Biddle?

  Axel Foley : Biddle! Yes, see? I- You- Two more seconds I would have said it myself. I don't need no help from no one, because I'm Johnny Wishbone, psychic extraordinaire. And if you need me, just think "Johnny Wishbone" and I come running. Lutz and Biddle, it's like Kibbles n' Bits, but different.

• Sergeant Taggart : [to Biddle]  Putz.

  Harold Lutz : Did you say something, Taggart?

  Biddle : He called you "Putz", sir.

  Sergeant Taggart : I didn't call him a putz, I called you a putz.

  Harold Lutz : He's right, Putz.

  [Biddle's face drops] 

• Harold Lutz : Have you submitted yourself for drug testing yet?

• Harold Lutz : [Lutz and Mayor Egan arrive on scene after Taggart, Rosewood, and Axel have apprehended everyone involved in the Alphabet arms deal after the warehouse shootout]  What the hell have you done here? Looks like a goddamn war zone! What have you done here, Taggart? Tell me!

  Billy Rosewood : We solved the Alphabet Crime!

  Harold Lutz : You shut up! Who the hell is talkin' to you? I personally sewed up the Alphabet Case in a body bag over an hour ago!

  [to Axel] 

  Harold Lutz : And you! I don't give a goddamn what federal agency you say you're working for! You're in jail, buddy!

  Billy Rosewood : Chief, wait a minute...

  Harold Lutz : SHUT UP! What the hell do you think you're doing here, bringing down a firefight in the middle of my city! You're out of the cop business FOR GOOD! FOREVER!

  Billy Rosewood : Will you just listen a minute?

  Harold Lutz : SHUT UP! You shut your mouth once and for all!

  Billy Rosewood : No, goddamn it, YOU shut up!

  [Taggart and Foley smile, impressed] 

  Billy Rosewood : This is what the Alphabet Crimes are all about, GUNS!

  Harold Lutz : [shocked]  Guns?

  Billy Rosewood : [pointing to a detained Thomopolis as he's being loaded into a police car]  That guy sold 'em, and Dent bought 'em with stolen money from Adriano's and his own race track! He was on his way to Central America! And, if you'd bother to TAKE YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS, you'd see we solved the WHOLE GODDAMN THING!

  Harold Lutz : You watch yourself!

  Mayor Ted Egan : [a uniformed officer hands Egan a passport, he thumbs through it, confirming Rosewood's story]  Just a minute, Lutz. Why didn't I know about this?

  Sergeant Taggart : [stepping forward]  Because Chief Lutz doesn't have to guts to hear the truth from REAL cops. That's why we had to go undercover with Detective Foley to solve this case.

  Harold Lutz : That cuts it, Taggart! You're fired.

  Sergeant Taggart : Yeah? KISS MY ASS!

  Harold Lutz : [Alex smiles proudly at Taggart]  KISS MINE!

  [turns to Foley] 

  Harold Lutz : YOU'RE fired too!

  Mayor Ted Egan : Lutz...

  Harold Lutz : Isn't that right?

  Mayor Ted Egan : I think I've just about had it with your abusive attitude.

  Harold Lutz : I'm sorry, I get carried away, I'm sorry...

  Mayor Ted Egan : YOU'RE fired. Do you understand that?

  Harold Lutz : Don't overreact, Ted! Please!

  Mayor Ted Egan : YOU'RE FIRED. I want you out of here now. GET OUT OF HERE! FIRED!

  Harold Lutz : [whimpering]  You'll regret this, Ted!

  Mayor Ted Egan : I regret it now, I've regretted it for the last two months!
