Officer Shaw: “That’s a- That’s a long time ago…”

Rookie Andy McNally: “Not really.”

Officer Shaw: “Ok, um - I’m Oliver. Oliver Shaw, I’ll be your training officer, uh, until further notice.  You don’t touch anything in the car until I tell you to, you don’t write anything down in your memo book until I tell you to.  You don’t talk to ot- other people, you look at me first.  You do as I say, not as, um - I do.  I know you probably think right now I’m being a bit of a hard-ass, but if it gets stressed out there, I will be, because my - (pause) - my job is to keep you safe… This crest, uhh, on my shoulder… this represents you, McNally, and we’re - …we’re both going home today.”

Rookie Andy McNally: (tears forming) “…That’s a really good talk.”
