[Kenner is aiming a gun at the main bad guy and is shaking with rage]

Det. Kenner : [Jonny beats up some guys to let Kenner through] How long did you study?

Minako : This is a nice place.
Chris Kenner : I built it.

Johnny Murata : Really? Damn.
-
Chris Kenner : [they've been partners less than a day] Look, I'm gonna call your chief, tell him it's not working out, and send you back to wherever it is you came from.
