• Lamb: This is the Sheriff's Department. I want your IDs out and everyone remain where you are. Sacks: We...gonna go after them? Lamb: Nah, let's get out, get the kegs. Tell the guys cookout at my place tomorrow night.

• Keith: You hear that, honey? That's leadership. Way to stand up on your own two feet, Lamb, and say, "Hey, the buck stops...there."

• Wallace: Do I look like James Bond to you?

• Ms. Dent: This is a 35mm camera. Now my suggestion as you're starting out is just to set it on auto and that way you — Veronica: I'd really be more comfortable if I could just use my own camera. Um, the swivel LCD really comes in handy when you're doing overhead shooting or ground level macro shooting. Ms. Dent: Right...

Ms. Dent: And...when it's dark outside, you...you should use a flash.

  Veronica: Wallace, King Kong ain't got nothin' on you.

• Veronica: I printed out the entire browser history from Logan Echolls' computer in his fourth period computer lab class.

  Wallace: So? Is he guilty?

  Veronica: Well, of wanting desperately to see pictures of Alyssa Milano naked, yes.

• Veronica Voiceover: I should have walked to Gold Coast. It's only 30 miles, but with the awkward silence, it feels like 300. In five seconds, I'm just gonna do the Charlie's Angel roll right out of the moving car. 5...4...3...
