- Dr. Tim Finch: Oh, just ask the actual fucking question, Em, please. Look, I've got ten minutes before I'm due back, and I really don't have time for endless dreary euphemisms.
- Emma Finch: You don't have to get so unpleasant, Dad.
- Dr. Tim Finch: Oh, you think? It's just that, as your father, I thought you might already know the answer.
- [pauses and sits down]
- Dr. Tim Finch: I'm sorry. I'm very stressed by all of this. But no... I never hit your mum. Apologies, but I have a two-o'clock.
- [stands up and kisses Emma the top of her head]
- Dr. Tim Finch: And for the avoidance of any doubt, I'm not a psychopathic murderer, either. Just pull the door to when you leave. Love you.
- Usha: [at a cafe with Sunny] I miss... us as a family. I miss us all being together. I miss you.
- DI Sunil 'Sunny' Khan: And I missed you, Usha, when you left for your soul mate. Do you remember? The girls missed you so much.
- Usha: And I'm so sorry for that, for all the mistakes I made, which I want to put right now.
- DI Sunil 'Sunny' Khan: [sighs] Except it's too late. We've moved on. I've moved on.
- Usha: And... you love her, do you? This Sal?
- DI Sunil 'Sunny' Khan: Yes, I do.
- Usha: And the girls... Surely we owe it to them to ask what they'd like?
- DI Sunil 'Sunny' Khan: We?
- Usha: Well, surely you can't deny them that? I mean, if they wanted, the chance for us all to be together again? A proper family. You always said the girls came first.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: [turns off the television in her sitting room just before her dad enters] Hey.
- Martin Hughes: I just went out to grab a bag. I didn't forget to turn it off.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: Dad...
- Martin Hughes: I just wanted to say that, you know, I've been thinking about what we were discussing the other day. And I am genuinely sorry about what you're going through.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: [shaking her head] I'm fine.
- Martin Hughes: The problems at work or whatever it is personally.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: My personal life's fine, too.
- Martin Hughes: And, of course, I'll always be there, you know, to give you whatever I can, whenever you need it.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: Wow, well, thank you so much.
- Martin Hughes: It's just that, um... right at the moment, I think it would be better for the both of us if I were to give you a bit of space, so I think it's best if I move in with Jenny for a bit.
- John Bentley: [standing up] Yeah, I better push off.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: No, thank you for coming in.
- John Bentley: No worries.
- [pauses]
- John Bentley: Uh... Look, I'm probably gonna head back down to Hampshire tomorrow, so...
- DCI Cassie Stuart: [nodding] Right.
- John Bentley: But um... can I, can I call you?
- DCI Cassie Stuart: [closes her office door] I don't know if this is a good idea right now, John. I've just got so much uh... crap on right now that I need to sort out and... I'm not sure starting... uh... Wouldn't be fair on you. Sorry.
- John Bentley: I'll call you, then.
- John Bentley: [over dinner with Cassie] Well, we all mess up, we're all fallible, we've all done things in which we are ashamed. The trick in life, I think, is knowing which things we should forgive ourselves for, and which not.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: Except I'm not sure it really is that.
- Uniformed Copper: [reporting into his radio as Pete is shown on a gurney undergoing chest compressions] Suspect is a white male, mid-40s, wearing a navy top and a grey baseball cap. He was last seen walking towards Burley Road, and the witness here said he had a knife in his hand, over.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: I think a part of me wonders if I'm just coming to a natural conclusion here. I've been doing this for... 28 years?
- [nodding]
- DCI Cassie Stuart: There are other things to do in life.
- John Bentley: Not like this.
