Look, you made me a really nice offer. And a few months ago, no problem. But now everything is different, and you’ve changed that. And you can’t change back. I want more. I want the fairy tale.

You’re the devil, and you’re rotten to the core, and you’re ruining my chance to train some people who might make pretty good cops
