• Capt. Highland : [Jim's been called in to tell Capt. highland what he knows about Charlie Manning. He's in the Capt.'s office with Becker, and Rockford refuses to tell the captain what he knows, unless the captain's more forthcoming with info as well.Captain Highland tells Jim Manning is an undercover cop, on a job, and hes supposed to check in with Manning every hour, but, he's two hours overdue]  If he turns up dead, and I can find anything to prove that you knew something that could have saved him, you're gonna wind up an accessory after the fact in his murder.

  Jim Rockford : No, I'm not. I'm not even gonna be a material witness, unless the DA can establish me on preliminary, which he can't. There's no foundation. And he can't get me into cross-examination for the same reason. So

  [Jim winks at Highland] 

  Jim Rockford : , thanks for the invitation. I think I'll go fishing.

  [Capt. Highland's taken aback, and stunned into silence. He looks at Becker] 

  Dennis Becker : [Chewing his lips, and looking up at the ceiling, to avoid Highland's eyes]  He's been around, captain.
