"I can see why Sam needed to come back here." "There is something about this world." "About my place in it." "I know what you did, three years ago." "I know." " Guv!" "You need to listen!" " No time for chat, Skip!" "He was hallucinating earlier, said you were in outer space, saw stars and everything." " You saw stars?" " 'Course I didn't, he's talking cobblers." "Ever stared at something so long the rest of your vision goes black?" "Find out what you need, Alex, now, before it's too late." "Viv, are you receiving me, over?" "The good ship Fenchurch is listing, Gene." "That crack in the hull is only going to get wider." "What now?"

"# Through cloud and sunshine, Lord," "# Abide with me. #" "I remember when we were evicted from paradise and sent down to this southern shit-hole." "Viv came over to me, shook my hand, and said he was sorry but all northerners looked the same to him." "Said he'd look after me." "I've worked with a few Skippers in my time but..." "Viv was the best by a country mile." "I'm gonna miss him." "I can't believe he's gone." "I look at the door expecting him to come through and bollock me for not doing me paperwork." " He was a lovely man." "But when it came to it, it was my turn to look after him." "Guv, it wasn't your fault." "It was nobody's fault but Viv's." "Oh, bollocks." "I just lost one of my finest and now I'm left with officers like you, Skelton, you clumsy bastard!" "Senor, please!" " Show some respect!" " Guv, it's gonna be all right." "We're all gonna be all right." "Where's Bolly?" "Another good officer gone, Alex." "Sir." "Find a dead police officer and a penny to a pound, you'll find Gene Hunt standing over him." "If you don't mind, sir, I've got things to do." "Still, you're the lucky one." " Your bullet didn't kill you." " It was an accident." "Who's this?" "It sounds stupid, but you know the ghost I told you about?" "Where did you find it?" " In the Guv's office." " Another dead copper?" "He's slippery." "Even putting this report together, working right here next to him, he covers his tracks." " He's a good copper." " He's a killer." " And this?" " That was with it." "Can I?" "I'm going to get it developed." "I..." "We've got superior facilities at DC." "I'll do it." "You know, you could no more turn your back on a bent copper as stop breathing." "We're the same, you and me." "Except that I don't want it to be true." "So we're not the same, are we?" "The time has come, Alex." "Do what you were put here to do." "Get me Gene Hunt." "My name is Alex Drake." "I was shot and found myself in 1983." "Is it real?" "Or in my mind?" "Either way I have to solve the mystery of what all this means and fight to get home." "Because time... is running out." "How is he?" "How do you think he is?" "He blames himself." "Have you heard from your friend in Manchester about the epaulette numbers?" " No." " Can you ask him again, please?" "What's so important about some plod's epaulette number?" "Just a line of enquiry." "I need an ID." "Please, Ray." "All right." "Who is doing that?" "!" "What the hell are you doing?" "Chris, you all right?" "Luigi's cheapest Chianti on an empty stomach," " always a recipe for mental disaster." " No, I'm not hungover." "Told you, you should've eaten a vol au vent." "What is happening to us all?" "Bugger off, I'm grieving." "How are you doing, Guv?" "I miss my pal." "Yeah, I know you do." "What are you doing tonight?" "I'm going to a revival of The Caretaker at the Royal Court." " Are you?" " No." "You know, we've been through a lot together, you and I." "Professionally and... you know, in other ways." "Come on, spit it out, Bols." "Let's have dinner together." " Tonight." " Why?" "Because I get the feeling that we won't have many more opportunities, that's why." "What, a date?" "Yeah, I suppose so." "All right, you're on." "But I have to warn you, Bolly, first date, upstairs outside only." " Guv." "Reports of something kicking off at a shebeen in Dalston." " A what?" "It's an illegal drinking den." "That's hardly CID, is it, Ray?" "Yeah, but it's an ANC shebeen." "Right then, we better go and splinter some skulls for Viv." "How touched he would be." "This is nonsense man, nonsense." "What do you mean nonsense?" "You are Judas!" "A Judas!" "Are we in Dalston or did just we take a wrong turn to Bogobogo Land?" " No need for that." " Can I help you?" "We've had reports of a disturbance here." "As you can see, all is well." "Is it true that in your country the police don't need warrants?" "They can hang a man just cos they don't like the cut of his jib?" "If you mean the colour of a man's skin." "Yes, it's true." " Ray, take this place apart." " Yes, Guv." " That's a bit extreme, isn't it?" "Come on." " Thank you." " Why do you do this?" "If you don't shut up, I'll arrest you for obstruction." " OK, the middle of the room, please." " What the bloody hell are you doing?" "No point in giving 'em a hard time." "We don't know if they've done anything." "When I want your opinion, I'll ask for it." "And I will never ask for it." "Prick." " Guv, I know you're upset but..." " Ray, get on with it." "These people have been fighting against an abhorrent society..." "They're members of a terrorist organisation and they're on my patch, Bolly." " They didn't kill Viv." "Nor did Chris." "And nor did I." "Please, don't stop talking on our account." "Guv." "There's some blood." "Hang on, there's more here." "Bloody Nora!" "Right, a bit of hush, please." " Nobody's falling down any stairs here!" " Oh, I don't know about that." "What did the Guv say to you?" " It doesn't matter." " You need to stand up for yourself, Chris." "Oh, yeah, and police officers will fly" "Right, listen!" "Get these people processed now!" "Come on!" "Can I take your names, please?" "Chris." "Make copies of these." "I'm a bit busy at the minute, Guv." " Other Guv." " Now." " You look unpleasantly happy." " My report is almost done." "Good." "You'll be sodding off, then." " What does it say?" " That's for me to know and you to read." "He's got nothing." "A couple of unpaid parking tickets, a few lost forms." " If you want to think that." " Nothing a big juicy collar won't override." "Can I please have a bit of peace and bastard quiet!" "There are 13 knife entry holes to his stomach and torso." "But the wound that killed him is this little chap." "Cut into the trachea, leading to massive haemorrhage and death." " Time of death?" " The phone call came in at nine 'o clock this morning." "That would be about right." "What do we know about him?" "His name is Oliver Ndlovu, he's a member of the ANC." "Fled South Africa six months ago where he was accused of organising strikes in township schools." " Murder weapon?" " A small knife, serrated edge." "My guess would be a kitchen knife of some sort." "Right, let's go nab yourselves a terrorist, Bolly." "Let Keats put that in his pipe and smoke it." " So, what did you see?" " Nothing." " Someone got murdered and you saw nothing?" " I was in the bathroom." " You were in the bathroom, too?" " Yes." " Must be one helluva big bathroom." " You were not in the bathroom." "You, my bolshy African friend, are the head honcho which means you know who murdered Oliver Nd..." " Ndlovu." "No, I do not know who murdered him." "I might not be able to pull your fingernails out but I'm not stupid." " He was murdered on your watch, in your club." " I was in the bathroom." " Do you know what I think?" "I think you killed him." " No." "Have you ever been inside an English prison?" "They'd love you." "Bit of African rough, something different for the weekend." " You wouldn't be able to sit down for a thousand years." " Thousand years." "Classic." "There's no need to be afraid, Tsitsi, I give you my word." "Did you know Oliver?" "I was in the bathroom." " I saw nothing." " That's not what I asked." "I understand he had quite forthright views on how the struggle should progress." "We found these in his belongings." "Did he upset someone, Tsitsi?" "Is that why he was killed?" "You know, we will find out what happened." "And when we do, they'll be discussions as to who will be deported." "Please!" "Don't send me back." " Well, I..." " They will kill me." "Like they killed my father." "How did your father die?" "They put wires in his penis and shocked him." "The shock cracked his spine and hurt his vocal chords." "He couldn't even say goodbye to me before he died." "I'm sorry." "I was in the bathroom." "# Men of Harlech stop your dreaming" "# Can't you see their spearheads gleaming...?" "#" " Can I be Michael Caine?" " Here they come, chaps!" "First rank." "FIRE!" " Second rank." "FIRE!" " Pathetic, aren't they?" "Guv." "I've come across some stone-wallers before, but this lot are First Division." "They're doing the civil disobedience thing, hoping we won't be able to separate the killer from the herd." "We need something to shake them up." " Ray, get yourself back down that shebong." " Shebeen." "Shebang." "Shebeen." "She-waddy-waddy, whatever." "See if we've missed something." "Take the plonk, will you?" " Yeah, about that, Guv, you do remember saying I could join CID..." " Now!" " So, what have you got?" " It's Tsitsi." " She's seems agitated, I think she may have something." " Good." "Time she had a little chat with her Uncle Gene." "Go easy on her, she's had a hell of a life." "The very thought." "Right, Zitty!" "You're in with me." "I just wish Chris would stand up to the Guv." " Just once." " It's not in his nature." "You can't ask a Labrador to become a Rottweiler." "I don't believe that." "People can change." "Not Chris." "Look, if you stabbed somebody here, what would you do with the knife?" "Dunno." "Depends if I was hiding what I'd done from the others or not." "They're all in on it." "Boozy argument gone wrong." " That drunk in the morning?" " They're Africans." "Stab, stab, he goes down." "Lots of screaming, panic." "What do you do with the knife?" "Make a run for it, and lob it in the canal out back." "Broad daylight, somebody might see ya." "I really think it's holding Chris back." "What if I was..." "Ray Carling!" "What are you doing?" "Just getting a sneaky pint." "Must be a blockage." "Anyway, as I was saying, Chris must take control of his own destiny." " He's in denial." " Denial?" "Isn't that a river in Egypt?" "It's the way I tell 'em!" " They're illegal!" " Are they?" "Maybe you should tell the police." "Uh-ho!" "What have we got here?" "A one-stop illegal immigration shop." "Bingo." "Tobias, I can only guess at the experiences you have been through in South Africa." "I have the profoundest admiration for your struggle." "This may sound trite, but..." "I argued against apartheid at my school's inter-house debating society." "And I very nearly won." "Does sound a bit trite." "I know what you're doing." "You're creating a conversational vacuum that you think my white liberal guilt will fill with inane chatter and banalities almost completely without punctuation or coherent syntax thus take the heat off what it is we're meant to be talking about." "Which is murder." "It's not going to happen." "It will all end beautifully, Tobias." "In seven years' time, Nelson Mandela will be released and he will become the first democratically-elected President of South Africa." "I want you to be there on that wonderful day." "Not rotting away in some London prison." "But you HAVE to help me." "I don't care what happened to you in South Africa or what happens to you when I send you back." "No, please you don't understand." "They'll probably wire you up like a lightbulb and then plug you into the mains." "Please, don't send me back." "Who killed Oliver Ndlovu?" "Was it Tobias?" "Come on." "You can tell me, he can't get you in here." "Quick word, Guv." "You can say what you like in front of Titty, we're old friends." "Stand up." "Stand up!" " Take your dress off." "Dress." "Off." " We should really get, Shaz, Guv..." "If you don't take your dress off, I swear to God" "I will put you on the next plane to Johannesburg." "I was in the bathroom." "This isn't just a drunken murder." "This is a fully-fledged, one-stop ANC cell." " I'm calling Special Branch." " No, you won't." "We have to." "If we suspect any link to a potential terrorist..." "There's a big fish here and he's ours." "It'll scupper Keats' report once and for all." "He?" "I thought it was the girl who killed him." "She's just a kid, she's not the prize." "Get Tsitsi up from the cells, tell her the South African police want to speak to her." "Right, Guv." "What are you up to?" "A sprat to catch a mackerel." "Don't touch me." "Right, Chris, let the others go." "Shaz, get this girl a brief." "A good one." "Kuhambe kanjani?" "Bawuphethe umese." "Bayazi ukuthi bekuyimi!" " Bangi thumela emuva!" " Speak English!" "Hamba uy' eHarari, namhlanje ebusuku." "Bazoku nakekela." "Ngithembise!" "Ngokuhlwa!" " Right, get her in a cell!" " Ngithembise!" "Ngiyaku thembisa!" "I did it." "I killed Oliver Ndlovu." " Why?" " He was a hothead." "Talking of armed struggle, of bringing violence to the streets of London." " I couldn't let that happen." " I don't believe you." "I was peeling potatoes when he came at me." " It was self defence." " Didn't look like self defence to me." "What about her clothes?" "They're covered in blood." "She tried to revive him." "They were lovers." "Ray, get him in my office." "No!" "No!" "I was in the bathroom." "Right, what can you tell me about this little lot, Tobias?" " What are these?" " We run a cleaning company." "It gives our people work." " Can you explain this?" " You'll let the girl go?" "Illegal passports, forged visas, laundered money." " I'll tell you about it all." " Everything?" " Everything." " Full confession." " Ray." "This isn't right, Guv." "He'll say anything to get Tsitsi off." "Sprat." "Mackerel." "So you'd let a potential murderer go just to get a bigger collar?" "This is the final chapter, Bolly." "In case you hadn't noticed, we're fighting for our lives." "Look, I'm not saying I agree with apartheid." "But just take a look at the rest of Africa, set of corrupt murderers." "It's like Liverpool but with sunshine and elephants." "You're the most intolerant, prejudiced man I've ever met, Ray." "I bet you say that to all the boys." "Come on, let's get this report typed up." "I'm scared, Ray." "It's OK." "I'm here." " We're all going mad." " Oi!" "What the hell are you doing?" " I'm talking to you two." "What is going on?" " Nothing." "How can you say that?" "My best mate and my..." "I don't believe it." "Something strange is going on, we've heard noises, Chris!" "And we've both been seeing stars." "Tell him, Ray!" " Tell me you've seen it too, Chris." " I've seen all I need to see." " You're both nutters, you deserve each other." " Chris!" "Chris!" "A man was killed and another man owned up to his murder." " Which means you are free to go." " Did you kill Oliver, Tsitsi?" " No." " Give it a rest, Bolly." " If you've got something to say, you must say it now." " Chris!" "Show this young lady out." "And you tell your terrorist friends to keep out of my manor or I'll hunt them down like rats." "Understood?" "Bye-bye." "You can't be sure it wasn't her." "And you certainly can't be sure it was Tobias." "He's giving me an entire ANC illegal immigrant centre." "He's the prize." " But what about the truth?" " Oh, grow up!" "Jimbo!" "My moods improved." "Murderer apprehended, international incident avoided and terrorist leader in the cells." " And on something of a promise." " In your dreams." "Glad you're in a good mood, Gene." "So if you need to know how to spell the word "stupendous" in your DNC report, just give us a shout." "The dead man, Oliver Ndlovu." "What about him?" "He's Special Branch." "His real name is Vincent Sarpong." "He was originally from South Africa but had lived in London for five years, worked for Special Branch for three." "Heard rumours that the exiled ANC was gathering bomb-making materials, looking to avenge last year's attack on their Patten Street offices." "I remember that now." "It was the South African Secret Service." "This guy confessed to it all at the Truth And Reconciliation trials." "The what?" "The point is the ANC have been plotting their revenge ever since." " Sarpong figured that out." " Which is was why he was killed?" "The President of South Africa PW Botha is due in London for secret talks with the Prime Minister." "You think they're going to try and off Botha?" "Sarpong thought so." "Which is why they executed him." "No." "His wounds were the result of frantic stabbings, not an execution." "I don't buy it." "Well, quite frankly, nobody's very interested in what you buy, Gene." "Special Branch have lost one of their own and they'll be taking the accused off our hands." " What will happen to him?" " That's none of our business." "Where's their request form?" "Form APR 13, I believe." " What?" " Alien Prisoner Release." "Do everything by the book of Fenchurch, Jim." "So if you can get me APR 13, signed and dated," "I just might consider Special Branch's request." "Have you any idea how serious this is?" "Yes, I do." "It's gonna be one hell of a last chapter, hey, Jim." "We've got their belongings." "Now look through them thoroughly." "The ANC never waged a terror war outside of Africa." "Yet." "Which means a bloody big feather in our cap if we foil a terrorist attack on a visit of a head of state." "Find me a smoking gun!" "Oh, I spoke to my mate up in Manchester." "Apparently there's been a fire in the records department, so your epaulette records have all been destroyed." "Forensics on the knife, Guv." "No prints." "There's no explosives in here, Guv." "Well, keep looking." "When you're done go and search Tobias' flat, and be thorough." "He's a crafty bugger." "Chris, I want you to stay in CID tonight." "Tobias Ndbele whatever his name is, is our prisoner and he stays in our cells, understand?" " Guv." "They can't take him unless they get an APR 13 form, can they, Guv?" "There is no APR 13 form, you dozy mare." "Right, nobody comes in, nobody goes out." "Is that understood?" " Guv." " I'd trust an estate agent before I trust Special Branch." "Bra opens at the front or back, Bolly?" "SHE LAUGHS" "You will never ever, ever know, Guv." "Good night, Chris." "Ma'am." "Guv." "Ma'am." " Is everything all right?" " Why wouldn't it be?" "Just asking." "Have you ever had the feeling that things are falling apart?" "And the world as you know it is about to end, and nothing will ever be the same?" "DI Drake." "Could I borrow you a moment?" " I'm, I'm just..." " Just a minute." "In my office." "We've found no evidence, sir, to support Special Branch's allegation that there's..." "Do you think this is a game?" "Hm?" "Some flirty, silly little game being played out by me, you and Hunt?" " No, I don't think it's a game." " Sam Tyler lost his life." "By all accounts an extraordinary man, his life was taken from him." " Murdered." " We don't know that for sure." " Yes, we do!" "In our hearts we know that." "Now it's down to you to take that final step, to find out from Hunt's own mouth how he did it, where he did it and why he did it." " It's not that easy, is it, sir." " Actually, it is." "It's about being a solution to a problem, a despicable problem." "Or being part of the problem itself." "I'm having dinner this evening with DCI Hunt." " Hopefully I'll find out the truth then." " Last chance, Alex." "If you don't have the courage to do it, I'll find someone who has." "Oh, I have the courage, sir." "Get." "Him."

"I mean, I hear a police whistle, I jump out of my skin." " It scared you?" " I don't know why." "Then we'll be scared together." "Come on, Shaz, let's go and turn this geezer's flat over." " Will you be all right?" " I'll be fine." "Grazie." " Mr Hunt." "A pleasure to see you." " The pleasure is all yours, Luigi." "Senor Hunt is on a date?" "I am not on a date." "I am meeting a colleague for a meal and a professional chat." "I know enough about restaurants and men to know a date when I see one." "And I know enough about Italians and vats of boiling cooking oil." "La Bella." "Luigi, a glass of champagne for the lady." "Si, Senor Hunt." " Thank you." " Bellisima." " Scrub up well, Bolls." " Thank you." "You don't look so bad yourself." "Why did you do it, Tobias?" "Why did you kill him?" "I didn't do it." "You know that, I can see it in your eyes." "Are you covering for the girl?" "But why would you do that?" "If they send you home..." " If they send me home I die." " So why?" "What time is it?" "It's ten past nine." "Can't see what you've got to smile about." "Tsitsi is on the evening flight to Harare." "She's safe now." "Have you noticed how strange the atmosphere is in CID?" " It's a nut house." "Always has been." " No, it's more than that." ""Things fall apart;" "the centre cannot hold." ""Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world"." " Pam Ayers?" " WB Yeats." "It's Viv." "They're all missing Viv." "You miss him too, don't you?" "He was the quiet centre of things." "The middle of the wheel." "And now the spokes are coming off." "Blimey, it's like going on a date with Leonard Cohen!" "You know, we've had our differences in the past." "Differences?" "All we are is difference, Bolly." " Like Tom And Jerry." " Eric And Ernie." " Abelard And Heloise." "The Saint And Greavsie." "Come on then, say it." "Say what?" "Alex, there's an elephant in the room." "Let's get it out of the way, eh." "Did you or did you not kill Sam Tyler?" "I was a teacher." "I didn't have much but I had more than most." "I kept my head down, did what I was told." " Why are you telling me this?" " There was a school strike, all my students were at the demonstration." "They fired into them." " They must have had a reason." " They were black, that was their reason." "Or Communists." "I mean, I don't know much about what goes on down there..." "They were children." "Look, if this is about you trying to justify a murder." "One of my students got shot in the head." "Through the eye." "I held her in my arms and as she died, I swore that I would not live my life like a dog, shivering in fear of what its master might do." "Better a dead lion than a live rat, my friend."

"# Can't you see the spearheads gleaming?" "#" "Ray." "You're a disgrace." "Sam Tyler was a friend of mine." "Bloody irritating friend most of the time, it has to be said." "But I learnt more from him than I've ever learnt from anybody I've ever met." "He was strong, decent, a brilliant copper." "What happened?" "He'd been acting strange for a few weeks." "And Sam Tyler strange was very bloody strange indeed." "He was happy here, everybody said so." "He had a girlfriend, Annie, he had you." "I asked him what was wrong, he wouldn't tell me." "Said he couldn't tell me." "What did you do?" "He said he wanted to leave." "He only asked me to help him fake his own death." "That's why we set fire to the car and pushed it in the river." "So Sam asked you to commit an illegal act and you just did it?" "Well, I wasn't happy for him to go." "I wanted him to stay, I didn't want to lose him." " What happened next?" " I never saw him again." "Oh, come on!" "What, he just vanished?" "Sam was like me." "He wasn't quite as annoying, as it happens." "Whatever happened to him, might happen to me, Gene." "I have to know." "I asked him why." "He said it would be better for me that I didn't know." "You see this is about respect, Alex." "About trust, about faith." "Something you haven't learned yet." " Senor Hunt, do you want a drink?" "Some coffee?" "Brandy?" " Brandy." "Just the bill, please, Luigi." "You're the feminist." "You can pay half." "Get your coat." "You've pulled." " Guv!"

" My patience is growing thin." " I don't understand." "A hole in MY wall?" "Where is the dynamite, who is it meant for?" "There's clearly some missing, Tobias." " Where is it?" " I don't know where it is." " Liar!" " We don't know if he's lying." "He said himself there were lots of factions." " He could be being set-up." " Shut up!" "Listen, I want answers." "And I want them now." "Or I'll hand you over to your Afrikaner chums who'll make Biltong out of you." " I told you, the movement was starting to split." "There were elements who wanted to bring the struggle to the streets of London." " What, Oliver?" " I don't believe in violence." " Bollocks." "You stabbed a Special Branch Officer to death!" " Now where's bloody dynamite?" " I don't know!" "Do you mind, I'm working here!" "Who the hell are you?" "My name is Anders De Villiers." "You've got something I want." "Running around London with a box of dynamite." "Bloody amateurs." " A little bit more than a murder now, Gene." " I'll take him now." " You're coming with us." " I don't think so." "He's our suspect, he stays here." "Got you wrapped around his little finger, hasn't he?" "He does that." "Howzit, Joshua?" "How are you doing, my friend?" "Been a long time." "Will somebody please explain what the hell is going on here?" "He likes police officers, does Joshua." "These guys were just coming off duty when the bomb went off." "Murdered." "In cold blood." "When was this, Joshua?" " Ten years ago." " Enough talk." "He belongs to Special Branch now." "Guv, he won't stand a chance." "We need to find that explosive." "Botha's due in two hours!" "Guv, a bomb's just gone off at the South African Embassy." " You people did this!" "YOU!" " Where's Botha?" " Still at Heathrow." "He's flown straight back to South Africa." " Any fatalities?" "One." "Think she was a cleaner." "The bomb went off before the timer was set, otherwise it would've been worse." "Bit amateurish for international terrorists, eh?" "They were never international terrorists." "Now you bastards know what it is we're fighting for you!" "To stop the Communists." " Oh, shut your face, you racist git!" " I suggest we all try and keep calm." "This never gets out." "Never!" "If people back home thought the ANC had the power, the gall to attack the President." "I give you my word." "We'll leak the papers a story about a gas explosion." "I want no publicity for these bastards!" " I want your prisoner." "Now." " No." "It's out of our league now, Bolly." "He took it out of our league when he did this." " Tell Chris to get him ready." " Guv." "Wait." "Tsitsi." "Is this down to you, Joshua?" "Are you behind this?" "They found the explosives in your room." "I'd confiscated them." "Tsitsi knew where they were." "Why didn't she go back to Africa?" " You gave her the chance." " She wasn't in her right mind." "All I can think is she saw an opportunity to hit back and she took it." "She was in love with Oliver and then she found out he was a traitor." "A British police officer!" "She killed him, didn't she?" "Why did you cover for her?" "Because I'd had my life, Chris, and hers was ahead of her." "Why did you kill those police officers?" "I was younger." "I was angry that my people were degraded." "I'm still angry." "But now I want to persuade them out of their wrongness, not to kill them out of it." "What's going to happen to you when they send you back?" " You know what will happen." " Are you frightened?" "Of course I'm frightened!" "But I'm weary, too." "The struggle makes you very weary." "You had nothing to do with the bomb?" "I give you my word." "I don't like it any more than you but this is now an international incident." " Not something Fenchurch East needs." " I don't care about your report." "Oh, yes, you do." "That's what all this posturing has been about." "Guv, this is bigger than a spat with Special Branch, this is another state, another country." "Gene Hunt versus another country." "I like the sound of that." "You make my job so easy." " Why haven't you gone home?" " I did but I couldn't sleep, Ma'am." "I don't know why." "Thought I'd see how Chris was." "Where's the Caped Crusader?" "Go and bring Tobias up from the cell." "I can't do that." " Why not?" " He's not there." " What do you mean, he's not there?" " Where is he, Chris?" "I don't know." "I realise it's been a long night and you're not the brightest button on the planet..." "I let him go." "You let him go?" "!" "Yes, sir." "You idiot!" "You have released a murderer." "A terrorist." "Hang on, you let him go." "Although I expressly gave orders to the contrary?" "Guv." "He was never going to get a fair trial in South Africa, probably no trial at all." "So..." "This is the ship you run, Hunt." " No discipline, no loyalty." "No clue." " What were you thinking of?" " Maybe Chris shouldn't have done it but..." " You dared to disobey me?" "I didn't join the police force, Guv, to be a party to state murder." "You joined to wipe my arse!" "You joined the police force because nobody else would bloody have you!" "You released Tsitsi, cos you wanted a big score." "She killed the Special Branch guy, set the bomb." "Don't you talk back to me!" "You useless piece of shit!" " Come on now." "That's enough." " You don't make decisions." "Do you understand me?" "I understand you, but I don't happen to agree with it." " We can get in touch with uniform." " What do you mean you don't agree with it?" " I don't agree with you, sir." "You can phone the Commissioner." "You can explain why you let a terrorist loose on the streets of London." " For God's sake." " Stop it!" "Bastard!" "Ray, just leave it." "Just let them get it out of their systems." "Come on." "Get out." "Chris, Chris, are you all right?" "Impressive." "Very impressive." "I think I'll go and finish my report." "This place is a disgrace." "A mockery." "We're better than this, sir." "It's just that Chris..." "What do you want?" "I'm busy." "I don't believe that Gene Hunt killed Sam Tyler." "And how did you come to that conclusion?" "I asked him." "You asked him?" "Yes." "And I believe him." "And what about the evidence?" "The falsified murder scene, the falsified police reports, the destroyed evidence, the photographs, the grave." " We don't have a grave." "Close the door on your way out." "I work with him." " I have to believe him." " He's polluted you." " Just like the others." " No, no, he hasn't." "You disappoint me, Alex." "Now get out." "You should be in bed!" "You?" "Senorina." "Try to cheer him up, my other guests are slitting their throats." "Every police officer in London has got Tobias' description, every port and airport have been alerted." "Pam Ayers was right, things fall apart." "They'll be OK." "If I can't look after my own, then I'm nothing." "Viv." "Now Chris." "Sam." "You know Keats, Keats thinks you murdered him." "He's never going to give up." "I don't care what Jim Keats thinks," "I care what you think." "And if you don't believe me then what's the point?" " Why were you following me?" " I wanted to thank you." "I was weary and you gave me life." "You shouldn't be here." "Every copper in London is looking for you." "They won't find me." "What happened, man?" "The rat became a lion, Tobias." " Does it feel good?" " Not especially." "Thank you, Chris." "So what are you going to do?" "Return to the struggle." "You should go." " The woman you work with, the tall one." " DI Drake." "Something she said about Mandela being free in seven years' time." "How would she know a thing like that?" "Well, she knows all sorts of things, does Alex Drake." "Sometimes I think she can see into the future." "What's in that glass, Shaz?" "Water." "Good God, woman." "And you want to be in CID." "I'm not sure that I do any more." " He went against orders." " You've been riding him for months, humiliating him." " You have been tough on him, Guv." " It won't happen again." "You're the best DCI I've ever met and I've been proud to work under you." "But I'm not going to be your doormat any more, Guv." "Those days have gone." "Are they now?" "Buy me a drink, and we'll say no more about it." " Luigi, get Mr Skelton a drink." " Si, Senor Hunt." "Senor Chris." "I'm so proud of you, Chris." "'What you having?" "'" "I heard music." " Did ya?" " All right, mate, keep it to yourself, eh." "I left the children playing." "You did well." "With Chris." "I think we have unfinished business, Bolly." "Yeah, yeah we do." " What did it mean?" "The music." " It probably doesn't mean anything." "Of course it does." "We've all heard it." "I hate all this weird stuff, it makes me feel uncomfortable." "Mine sounded like a pub." "And ours." "Grazie, senor!" "Amazing news!" "My cousin in Battipaglia is dead." " I couldn't be happier for you, Luigi." " He leave me money." "I can go home!" "Get off!" "Even Luigi's going mad." "Did you hear the voice?" " Lots of voices, couldn't make any out in particular." " I could." " What was it saying?" " What'll you have?" " You're probably just imagining it all, mate." " I'm not imagining it." "And I'll tell you something else about that voice." "You're frightening me, Chris." "Remember that black bloke who was landlord of The Railway Arms?" "Nelson." "Of course I do." "It was him." "So Fenchurch East lives to fight another day." "Everyone's rattled." "Viv's funeral." "Chris stepped up to the mark." "I wasn't sure he had it in him." "We'll be all right." "We'll all be all right." "Will we, Bols?" "Let's have a dance." "No." "Gene Hunt does not dance." "No." "He doesn't hug Christopher Skelton either, does he?"
