Quotes 

• Detective Danny Price : [first responder enters command post and talks to SRU officers]  Hey, there's a kid up there with a gun. We got to get up there as soon as possible. Every second counts!

  Gregory Parker : Which is why we're slowing down movement until we get further intelligence. See, right now, the subject is inactive.

  Detective Danny Price : And by "the subject" you mean the gunman.

  Gregory Parker : [turns away and talks to Scarlatti]  Zero fatalities, two injuries. Sounds like they were unplanned.

  Mike Scarlatti : Which affects our subject profile, which affects our response.

  Detective Danny Price : Okay, and what about the injured?

  Mike Scarlatti : [annoyed]  We're on it! Sir.

• Gregory Parker : This kid hasn't killed anyone yet. He's had ample opportunity.

  Mike Scarlatti : Nothing on the Internet. No creepy photos. No "look at me and my gun" stuff.

  Gregory Parker : Classic domestic scenario. Regent Park, projects, poverty... Mom's unemployed, dad's got a criminal record. Drugs, couple of domestic assaults on the mother.

  Mike Scarlatti : Probably where he got the gun.

  Gregory Parker : Yeah, well, a kid like this, no money, horrible home life, stuck in a fancy-pants high school? It's a perfect storm. It's still no excuse.

• Gregory Parker : Okay, last, but certainly not least, tomorrow a big drill with Team Five. And I, for one, am firmly anticipating a Team One victory.

  [everyone gets excited] 

  Ed Lane : Which is why we're going to spend the rest of this afternoon training, in gear, with weapons, in the six-story building we're going to use for tomorrow's training.

  Mike Scarlatti : [unexcitedly]  Training for a training exercise?

  Ed Lane : We play to win, Mr. Scarlatti. We play to win.
