Alan Boone : [after Mannix brings Boone up to the Stabler's apartment to question him about taunting Tom] Look, I'm sorry. It was just a joke.
Tom Stabler : A joke?
Alan Boone : Yeah, a bad joke. I'm sorry.
Tom Stabler : You scared my wife half to death!
Lisa Stabler : You must be sick!
Alan Boone : I SAID I'M SORRY!
[pause]
Alan Boone : Sometimes I get these crazy impulses.
Joe Mannix : Let's see some identification.
Alan Boone : What for?
Joe Mannix : Okay. We'll let the police ask the questions.
Alan Boone : Oh, wait! Wait!
[takes out his wallet]
Alan Boone : Here.
Joe Mannix : [takes the wallet and looks inside] "Alan Boone. 2135 Cerrito Road. Sacramento."
Alan Boone : Yeah. You see, I'm a salesman. I'm on the road all the time. Sometimes I get these crazy impulses. But I'm leaving town tomorrow.
Joe Mannix : There's a one-way plane ticket to San Jose.
Alan Boone : You see? You see? I'll be gone! I'll never come this way again.
Tom Stabler : Why did you do it?
[pause]
Alan Boone : [looking at Mrs. Stabler] It's her. Beautiful girl. I guess I get jealous. I don't know. I'm sorry.
[pause]
Joe Mannix : You want to prefer charges, Mr. Stabler?
Tom Stabler : [thinks for a second] He's out from under his rock now. Let him go.
Joe Mannix : Well, he frightened your wife. He could call somebody else. The only way you can stop him is to prefer charges.
Alan Boone : No, no, honest!
[pause]
Tom Stabler : Mr. Mannix, we don't want any trouble. I mean reporters hanging around and all that. I don't want to prefer charges. Let's just drop it.
[Mannix nods and hands Boone his wallet back]
Alan Boone : [takes the wallet and runs toward the door] Thanks a million. I promise I'll never... I promise. Thanks.
[walks out the door]
Tom Stabler : It's over. We're grateful.
Lisa Stabler : Yes, thank you.
Joe Mannix : Glad I could help. As a matter of fact, I think I may have eliminated part of a problem of my own.
