The Shield Quote
Rawling: I also looked into the crime stats. The numbers are up because you manipulated yours to make things look better. I'm getting punished because I reported mine accurately.
Aceveda: Sounds to me like now's a good time to start formulating an exit strategy for the seizure policy.
Rawling: The only person who can take me off this is the Chief and not without one hell of a fight from me.
Aceveda': Well then, I'd start training. I just spoke to him. He's still blue in the face from having to explain to the ACLU lawyers why you put a cop like Vic, in charge of such a controversial program.
Rawling: That's what all this is about, Mackey?
Aceveda': Starting tonight, Vic is the face of that church invasion. Pulling him off the street might buy you some slack.
Rawling: He's working. I stand by my choice.
Aceveda': You just won't take help, will you?
Rawling: Help from you? Sure. Orders? No.
Aceveda': If Mackey's off the table, I'm going to have to set my sights on the policy in general.
