Joan of Arcadia (TV Series)

The Uncertainty Principle (2003)

John Getz: D.A. Gabe Fellowes

Quotes 

• Will Girardi : I met with Roy Roebuck yesterday. He had quite a few interesting things to say about Arcadia, some of them involving the former chief, Rowley.

  D.A. Gabe Fellowes : Should I be following something here?

  Will Girardi : Oh, let's not play our usual games, shall we, Gabe? Roy Roebuck collected enough evidence on corruption in this city to take you and possibly everyone else down to the ground. Now, I know you cut a deal with Rowley about this to shut him up. I want the same deal.

  D.A. Gabe Fellowes : I'll say one thing, Girardi. That's, uh... that's an impressive learning curve.

  Will Girardi : Oh, I catch on eventually.

  D.A. Gabe Fellowes : But I'm afraid you've got the wrong guy. As far as I know, Chief Rowley retired to be with his grandkids. So if you have something I should know about, I suggest you leave it with me, and I'll see if it warrants an investigation.

  Will Girardi : Well, if you're not willing to work with me, I'll find somebody who is.

  D.A. Gabe Fellowes : Hold up. I suggest we follow protocol. Otherwise, the consequences could be dangerous.

  Will Girardi : Well, still, I'd prefer to hold on to it.

  D.A. Gabe Fellowes : It's not your area of expertise, Girardi. Let me handle it.

  Will Girardi : Perhaps I didn't make myself clear.

  D.A. Gabe Fellowes : Perhaps I didn't make *myself* clear. Give me the package, Girardi, now.

  Will Girardi : Then again, maybe it's best to play by the rules.
