NotesEdit

• International airdates:
  • Germany: October 28, 2006
  • France: September 21, 2007
• When Vic Mackey is trying to make peace between Kern Little and Diagur Leyva, he says "No one wants to settle this thing in a locked steel container with our bare hands. Right, Kern?". This is a reference to what Vic did with Kern and his rival T-Bonz during the Season 1 episode "Dawg Days".
• The shirt that Jaelene wears remembering Raymond Montes reads "1983-2004" as his years of birth and death. This establishes 2004 as the current year in the show.

QuotesEdit

• Garza: Mow your own lawns, putas!

• Claudette Wyms: So you're telling me that a chief has been outpoliticked by a captain?

(Chief Bankston gets up and looks at her)

• Claudette Wyms: When Aceveda takes office, do I have your word I'd move up?
• Tom Bankston: You have... my support. But you might try playing a little politics yourself... with him

• Lonzo Wang: My lawyer's gonna read this warrant. If there is even an apostrophe missing... *poof*
• Vic Mackey: Why don't you roll the dice on a 20-year stretch. See how good we spell-check... Or you could put your ass on the phone with Garza and tell him you got new shipments of "H" and coke you're selling at deep discounts... *poof*

• David Aceveda: Think of it as a promotion.
• Claudette Wyms: I *had* a promotion. You took it away, remember?
