Rawles to McNulty:

Listen to me, you ****! You did a lot of **** here. You played a lot of ****ing cards, and you made a lot of ****ing people do a lot of ****ing things they didn't wanna do. This is true; we both know this is true. You, McNulty, are a gaping asshole. We both know this. **** if everybody in CID doesn't know it! But **** if I'm gonna stand here and say you did a single ****ing thing to get a police shot! You did not do this, you ****ing hear me? This is not on you. No, it isn't, asshole! Believe it or not, everything isn't about you! And the mother****er saying this, he hates your guts, McNulty! So you know if it WAS on you, I'd be the son of a bitch to say so! **** went bad - she took two for company. That's the only lesson here.
