I love my new canon

[bjornwilde]

From this weeks episode...Nolan (the sheriff) and Datak (the town crime boss) are forced to work together to rescue the Mayor's sister who has been kidnapped. Right before this bit of dialoge, Datak shows how smart and resourceful he is and how much Datak knows the towns folk and Nolan doesn't; leaving a clear impression that Nolan is nothing but a slowwitted thug. They confront the boyfriend of the person they suspect is the kidnapper and the following dialog happens after the lead refuses to talk.

Nolan: Funny, I'm the guy with the gun yet you aren't looking at me, you're looking at him (Datak). I think Datak’s boys got here before me. I think they impressed on you the importance of not cooperating with me. Then I get to beat on you fruitlessly for a while until Datak swoops in, whispers in your ear, and all of a sudden the information flows. I get to look like a big dumb ape, you get to look like a hero…How close am I?

Datak: (Looking embarrassed and slightly off guard) Close enough. But for the record, I had no intention of whispering in this disgusting man's ear.

I swear Nolan is like Han Solo and Captain Vimes' love child or something.
