Linus Oliver appreciation post
I'm a big fan of the small role Linus Oliver (portrayed by Ron Taylor) played in Calderone's Return. He had some smooth and funny dialog in the episode and I was disappointed when he was killed off.
Some of my favorite quotes by Linus or in the interactions with him:
Tubbs: "Don't you read the newspapers? Dealers like you are dropping like flies."
Linus: "Dealer? What you mean dealer? Like car dealer?"
Linus: "You're infringing with my constitution. You got no right to open that suitcase."
Linus (when caught with drugs): "Look man. It ain't mine. I was just holding it for this guy, you see?"
Crocket: "Holding for or holding out on."
Linus: "Look here, man. Looks like this is the time for me to check out and for you dudes to take over. Ciao."
Crocket: "Guess again, Bucko."
Linus: "Uh uhhh. No way, Jack. If you're thinking what I think you're thinking, no way am I gonna go in there tonight and get my face shot off. You're looking at a conscientious objection. No man, look. The dude walks in the door, you grab him. Simple."
