Quotes
-
Mathew Sloan : Jesse Cardoza. From California. Well, you're a long way from home, aren't you, Hollywood? You know, I've never been to Cali. Oh, you're an actor, right? Everybody there's an actor, right? I mean, even the governor.
Jesse Cardoza : I'm not an actor.
Mathew Sloan : So why are you here?
Jesse Cardoza : You forced us in here, as I recall.
Mathew Sloan : No, why are you *here*? In Miami?
Jesse Cardoza : I'm just on vacation.
Mathew Sloan : Why are you here at this crime lab?
Jesse Cardoza : Someone stole my car. I was just filing a report is all...
Mathew Sloan : With her?
Jesse Cardoza : Yeah.
Mathew Sloan : I find out you're lying, I'll kill her.
Jesse Cardoza : Yeah, and you'll leave here in a box. I guarantee it.
Mathew Sloan : Oh, man. I really hope you're an actor. 'Cause you scared me.

Lieutenant Horatio Caine : I'm unarmed.
Mathew Sloan : It's Horatio Caine. You know, you look just like you do on TV. You know, like... like when you found that Walsh baby last year. Nobody thought you'd find that kid alive.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : I need the woman.
Mathew Sloan : I want a helicopter. And I want $100,000.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : This is not a negotiation.
-
Mathew Sloan : [turning himself in] I knew it. I knew you would do it.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : Well, you were looking for justice, Mathew. I guess you found it.
Mathew Sloan : But now you know the truth.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : I do know the truth.
Mathew Sloan : Can you tell my son why I did this? That I did it for him.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : You know, Mathew... I think you can explain that a whole lot better than I can.

Danielle Hansen : [after getting shot in the leg] How bad is it?
Jesse Cardoza : It looks like it may have hit the femoral artery, but I gotta get this bleeding under control.
[taking off his shirt]
Jesse Cardoza : Hey, you! Come here, come on.
[Perkins runs over]
Jesse Cardoza : Look, keep constant pressure on this wound, okay?
[taking off his belt to use as a makeshift tourniquet]
Jesse Cardoza : Sorry. How you feeling?
Danielle Hansen : It's cold. It's so cold.
Mathew Sloan : What's going on?
Jesse Cardoza : Her pulse is thready and tachy.
[feeling her foot]
Jesse Cardoza : She's lost distal pulse; she's going into shock. Take your lab coat off. Come here, let's cover her up.
[Sara and Perkins take off their coats]
Jesse Cardoza : Here you go. We gotta get her warm. Here we go.
Sara Clark : [giving him a clean shirt] Here.
Jesse Cardoza : [putting it on] Thanks. Okay...
Danielle Hansen : [weakly] Sure you wanna come work here?
Mathew Sloan : [realizing as Jesse hangs his head] You're a cop.

Lieutenant Horatio Caine : Ted, is there anyone I can contact, a wife or a girlfriend? Is that the justice you're looking for?
Mathew Sloan : You don't even know who I am.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : I know you're not Ted Wells.
Mathew Sloan : Tanya. She used to look up to me. You know? I made one mistake. One bad business deal.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : [muting the call] Look into public records. Check any recent divorce action. Plaintiff name's Tanya, surname unknown. Do it right now.
Dave Benton : Got it.
-
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : I didn't catch your name, friend.
Mathew Sloan : It's 'cause I didn't tell you, Horatio. Look, you can call me Ted.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : Okay, Ted, is everybody okay in there?
Mathew Sloan : Oh, everyone is fine, so long as you keep answering the phone.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : Okay. It's just you and me, Ted. We can all walk away from this together.
Mathew Sloan : No, no, no one is walking. You just listen! That's what you do here!
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : And I can do that, too, Ted.
-
Mathew Sloan : You have ten seconds!
IAB Lieutenant Rick Stetler : He is on his way. Is there anything that I can...?
Mathew Sloan : Four, three, two, one...
Jesse Cardoza : [shielding Danielle] No, you don't want to do this!
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : [taking the phone] This is Horatio.
Mathew Sloan : Congratulations, Lieutenant. You have just saved a life. Now let's see if you can save all of 'em.
-
IAB Lieutenant Rick Stetler : This is Lieutenant Rick Stetler. Who am I speaking with?
Mathew Sloan : Rule number one: I ask the questions!
IAB Lieutenant Rick Stetler : Listen, uh... we're gonna have to work together.
Mathew Sloan : No, you listen to me. Get me Horatio Caine. I will only talk to him!
IAB Lieutenant Rick Stetler : Lieutenant Caine is in the field right now. It may take us some time to find him.
Mathew Sloan : Well, how about ten minutes? Hmm? And after that... a hostage dies.
-
Mathew Sloan : You probably think I'm a whack job, right?
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : Ted, I don't think you're a whack job. People find themselves in bad situations all the time.
Mathew Sloan : That sums it up. The American Dream trampled on by anyone and everyone.
[threatening Jesse]
Mathew Sloan : Get that in front of the door! But you... you're gonna get us out of this one. You're gonna make sure justice is done. That's why I asked for you.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : [writing and circling the word "justice"] Ted... how can I help you get justice?
Mathew Sloan : Right, I tell you, and you ignore me like everybody else. No! This is my thing, my way, and my timetable.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : Ted, I understand that, but I can't hold SWAT back forever.
Mathew Sloan : Well, I got something for them. Rule number three is... I see a cop, I kill a cop.
-
Mathew Sloan : One of y'all better negotiate with me!
IAB Lieutenant Rick Stetler : Okay, I'm listening.
Mathew Sloan : Look, I want a copter and 100k.
IAB Lieutenant Rick Stetler : All right, we'll work on that.
Mathew Sloan : Yeah, well, work faster, otherwise your cop Cardoza here is next. And no fed money. No banks, no dye packs. Go to one of those check-cashing places.
IAB Lieutenant Rick Stetler : Yep, I know a place.
Mathew Sloan : Yeah, I know a place, too. There's one on Eighth and Gillpark. Royal Vista. Go there, and believe me, I'll know if you don't.
-
Mathew Sloan : I want the building clear and everyone out. And then clear a path via the south stairwell.
Jesse Cardoza : You know, that isn't very smart. You're gonna be exposing yourself to SWAT out there.
Mathew Sloan : Yeah, well, I got a plan for that. You just get on the phone and tell them I expect to see Horatio out there.
-
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : Ted, do you want me to find Tanya? You two can talk it through.
Mathew Sloan : No, I think she's done talking to me.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : What if I were to set it up?
Mathew Sloan : [hearing a banging in the ceiling] What the hell is that?
Jesse Cardoza : It's just... just the AC, man.
Mathew Sloan : Horatio! You got SWAT coming in here?
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : It's probably the AC, Ted.
Mathew Sloan : I see a cop, I shoot! Don't you try me, Horatio!
-
Mathew Sloan : Darren Ripley's gonna get what's been coming to him, right?
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : Yes. But now he's facing felony counterfeit charges, Mathew. You should have come to me first.
Mathew Sloan : Not everybody can live in Miami, man. Out here in the sticks, we got a bunch of Keystone Cops that never make the 6:00 news, but you... you all over TV. Helping people.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : So your answer is to commit a crime in my backyard.
Mathew Sloan : Well, it worked, didn't it? I got justice.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : Yes, but now you're a felon. And as a felon, Mathew, you need to turn yourself in.
Mathew Sloan : No, not yet. You got the person that ruined my life, but not the one that took all I had left.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : Who would that be?
Mathew Sloan : That's what I need you to find out.
Lieutenant Horatio Caine : What happens, Mathew, if I find you first?
