L.A. Confidential Quote
Ray Pinker : Bud White - what brings *you* to the basement?
Bud White : I got a couple Nite Owl questions.
Ray Pinker : I don't know if you'd read the papers, but that case is closed.
Bud White : Is there anything bothering you about it, Ray?
Ray Pinker : Yeah, the fact that the pack-up boys haven't carted this shit out of here yet. [ Bud sees all the boxes of case files, and starts to look through the crime scene photos ]
Ray Pinker : I got three shotguns, taken from the suspects, that match the strike marks on the shells from the Nite Owl. What more do you want?
Bud White : [ suddenly spotting a detail in a photo ] There's blood on the wall here. I thought everybody but the cook got shot in the men's room?
Ray Pinker : That is Stensland's blood.
Bud White : Stensland?
Ray Pinker : He took a blow to the head. Was probably unconscious when they dragged him in the john.
Bud White : Did they hit anybody else?
Ray Pinker : No. But he was a cop, he probably tried to "do something."
Bud White : [ remembering that Stensland said he had a date that night, he studies a photo showing a table with two settings, including a coffee mug smudged with lipstick ] Grilled cheese, black coffee... two of the victims were women, right?
Ray Pinker : Yeah - Patti DeLuca, the night-shift waitress, and a Susan Lefferts.
Bud White : Susan Lefferts...
Ray Pinker : Yeah, what about her? [ Bud runs out of the room ]
Ray Pinker : You're welcome!
