Third Watch (1999–2005)

Cara Buono: Grace Foster

Quotes 

• Grace Foster : Carlos is going to ask Holly to marry him. He said it's because she thinks he's amazing. I think that's pretty stupid. You dont marry someone just because they think you're amazing. I guess some people are so afraid to get hurt that they wont do something like that until they know for sure that they wont, wont take a chance until they know how the other person feels. But the problem is if you play it safe like that if you wait until you're sure, something might happen and you may never get the chance to say; I never met anyone that made me wish so much that I knew how to do this. So please just get better because I dont care how you feel about me. I just think you're amazing.

• Grace Foster : I am gonna jump out of my skin.

• Carlos : Look. I respect how much you loved your old detail. But we aren't any country club.

  Grace Foster : Yeah. Okay.

  Carlos : Don't walk away from me! Come here. You know what? None of us were born the day that you got here. You don't know anything about us. You have no idea how many calls we take, how many lives we've saved and lost, how many bullets we've dodged. No matter how minor you manage to make it all sound! I don't care whether you came from Bed-Stuy or Baghdad. You're not gonna minimize my experience here just because it's not yours. So you either learn to respect us the way that we respect you, or just keep your mouth shut until you've clawed your way back to that warzone where you'd rather be! You got that?

  [to Kim] 

  Grace Foster : Guy's got stones.
