Resynced n' Corrected By Chuck

[Mills] Five years ago Mr. Regan were you

a detective sergeant second class,

working in the robbery squad of the divisional CID Chumley?

[phone ringing]

Were you the sergeant who dealt with the Golden Maid dairy

robbery in Panda Street, Chumley?

You said on the phone Mills you had information for me.

Oh, we've got something for you.

Five years old?

I'm a busy man.

Trust me, I wouldn't bring you here.

Nobody brings me anywhere duckie.

All right, invite you.

Were you in charge of that job?

Yeah, but I don't like being cross-examined by rag men.

I'm sure we're both in the same business

of establishing the truth.

You don't need hidden tapes for that.

Is it not right the job was a three-hander

and one man escaped?

You still want that man?

You'll win a coconut if you give him to me.

Was that man five feet eight inches tall, sandy haired,

slightly built and sunken eyes?

Yeah.

One witness described him as wearing

a sort of garage man's dungarees.

[laughs] You reckon he'll still be wearing that gear?

I realize Mr. Regan that the duty of a police man

is always to protect his informant.

Nowadays if there is an informant there are strict rules

but we're talking about the past aren't we?

[Noah] This is the truth, I've been doing some work

for Mr. Regan over the years

but he been good to me and my mother.

But he was very ambitious.

I done it, I was with 'em, I was the third man,

the one what got away.

[Mills] Why did Regan want you

to pick on Woods and Davies?

[Noah] I crossed him and he wanted to work one out on 'em.

I was the man in the dungarees.

You smell nice.

Do you recognize the man?

Where's the man whose voice is on that tape?

[Funky music]

♪ ♪

Governor we're being smudged.

[camera shutter clicking]

[The Sweeney Theme] ;D

I'm sure we've got a very worried Mr. Plod,

but he hasn't admitted anything.

Get me Thomas.

He's too canny.

If I lay you the tiniest of bets, say 10,000 to one

that he won't report this to his Commander as he should.

[phone ringing]

Yep?

Mills, keep a good eye on Noah.

The noose is tightening very nicely.

Will do.

Cup of tea Noah?

No, just give me another one of them.

[upbeat music]

Drive round the block nine times

we'll meet you back at the factory.

Look I'm not gonna go into a great rigmarole I just wanna

tell you what that little scene was about.

What you just witnessed was aggro for me

and because you were there could mean bother for you.

I switched the button off before I spoke.

Nah, they'd got others.

But you know the score.

What you saw was an allegation of conspiracy against me.

Now when it hits the fan, you'll be in the safe corner.

Get off.

Look, as a result of that dairy job

I had a good run on the selection board.

I was promoted from detective sergeant second class

to first class.

It was a swing point, now take it.

[camera shutter clicking]

So, what now?

Well I should report this to Haskins but I won't.

What's bloody more, Mills knows I won't.

I rather think they wanna see me put myself about a bit,

they want the joy of jumping up and down on me

when I'm under the pancake.

I mean, they've given me a bit of time.

Well, let me help.

Look, that's your answer.

All right, okay, okay.

Look Governor, when we win

I'm in a queue for the medals, right?

So, why can't I be trusted now?

That dairy job got me where I am now.

All I'll get out of this is no promotion

for the rest of my service.

Do you want some of that?

[phone ringing]

Haskins.

[Man] I think your Mr. Regan's a very naughty man.

Who are you?

[phone static]

So, Jack, was anything true in that office?

The voice on the tape is one Noah Riley.

There were three men on that blag but Noah was the snug,

he never took part in it he just told me.

The two we nicked, Denis Woods and Ernie Davies,

well they're lunatics and I mean cannibals.

I first nicked Davies when he was 18.

And the last time they both got eight years.

The third one's still circulating.

And if they were put away for eight

and they're good little cannibals

they're about due out aren't they, five years?

They're out and I reckon they've sussed Noah was the snow

and then they're using him to put the finger on me.

I mean, he wasn't making a statement

he was reading a script.

Ambitious.

Well he can't win Governor.

I mean your Noah's obviously got form, right?

No, he'd never hold water in the box.

Noah's clean, got no form.

That's why the heavies use him.

Yeah, but why'd he go the papers,

say that he did something he didn't.

'Cause he's terrified, that's why.

You get banged up for five years you do a lot of thinking.

They want my blood and they put the frighteners on Noah

to set me up.

They either want me doing porridge or out of the force.

And if I'm out the force I'm open to invitations

down dark alleys, right?

Then he goes to Mills, that gets in the papers,

well it's a new gospel init.

Only let me have clean coppers above me.

Yeah but I don't think they'd frighten him that much.

I told you they're lunatics.

They could take his mother's toes off one by one.

He loves his mother see.

Okay, well don't go looking for trouble.

You're all right, I'll come.

No, no, no, I can't remember addresses

from five years back.

You get over to Brentford if you want

and get the docket on that dairy job.

I'll meet you back at the factory.

[Ernie] When do the filth use public boxes Den?

[Den] When they don't want nobody to know.

[Ernie] Right.

Little Noah must be saying the right thing.

Quick learner.

You're in it Regan.

I'm gonna hit that filth like an air raid.

[Den] Yeah.

[phones ringing]

I've booked it in in the corres book with the clark.

Thanks.

Governor, why make it open, official?

Well how else can I get addresses from five years back?

There, that's Davies' old address.

Nobody there knows you work with me, see what you can

find out and remember we're not dealing

with the girl guides.

If they've set Noah up they'll be watching the way I walk

so I want somebody watching them.

[George] Yeah, well it's nice to be trusted.

[Jack] Hang on.

You busy Jack?

Yeah, yeah.

Oh, that's a bit old.

Yeah, it was just an idea, it came to nothing.

Tell me have you added any enemies

to that long list of yours?

Why?

Had a funny one this morning,

man reckons you're a naughty boy.

Yeah, I should be sent to bed with no dinner.

Is Jack all right?

Yes, Guv.

You sure?

Yes, Guv.

Good.

And don't look so relieved at my going Sergeant.

Look, you give us a signed statement

giving us exclusive rights to your story

and we'll publish and pay mum 200 quid down

and a lot more to come.

Why not now?

We're not ready are we?

With you I mean, 'til you've signed your statement.

You know you're costing us a bomb keeping you here.

Well, you're worth it but can't go on like this

forever now can we?

You want mum paid, that suits us.

Nobody can say we paid you.

Despite A10 we don't trust the police

to investigate themselves.

We don't like whitewash.

We want plenty of your black paint for Mr. Regan.

Why?

You came to us with the story.

It's all in the public interest.

Pinning bent coppers.

Who are you afraid of, hm?

Woods and Davies?

Well, they can't do anything to you when they're plastered

all over the Sunday breakfast table can they?

Regan?

He'll come looking.

Well think of all the thousands of hotel rooms in London.

I can't stand being cooped up.

Well, just as well you didn't go inside then, init, eh?

Drink?

Oh look Noah, everybody's got a mother.

Yeah, well, she's one of the angels.

I haven't heard from my Noah for four days.

Do you mind if I sit down?

No.

Doesn't matter much what I do it still hurts

but it's not so bad when I sit down.

Yes, I'll have one thanks.

Has anybody been here for him?

-No. -Off the manor?

No friends?

No, just went, thanks.

Does he still work at the same place?

You won't find him there.

They've been looking for him as well.

You want a cup of tea?

No, do you?

I find it hard without him,

getting round and doing things.

And I don't want any other woman in my house I know that.

He's one of the angels.

And when did ya last see him?

He rung on Friday, half past two.

Did he sound all right?

My Noah doesn't drink.

Was it a long distance call?

How would I know that?

He said he's something special to do.

I said are you in trouble son?

He said no he'd ring every day to see how I was.

Only he hasn't.

Where is he?

And now you've come.

He doesn't lie though does he?

Never.

Did he mention anybody else when he rang ya?

He always spoke well of you.

He must be in trouble.

I thought you knew where he was.

What's happening?

Did he mention any newspapers?

Have you received any strange money?

You tell me what's happening, please.

You fancy a night out?

Knees up mother brown?

Oh, lovely.

Your car, unofficial.

You don't have to, I've given you your envelope.

I tore that up.

Gotta be double careful though aint we?

All belt and braces.

Listen what is it?

Who gets to Noah first, us or them?

There's gonna be a lot of face around.

Woods and Davies are having their coming out at Fred's pub.

Normally that scenes up the West End all flash

and double gins but tonight's gonna be a knees-up

so it could be a set up.

What, and we just walk in?

Through the back.

Look I haven't got time to wait.

Governor, look.

Look, I know there gonna be a lot of nervous people around

but I've gotta get a result.

Look, there's nothing stopping us having a drink is there?

Well it never has before has it.

[people applauding]

Oh, don't come too near Woodsie I'm only human darling.

On Mother Kelly's Doorstep and that's an order.

Ooh, get you duckie.

Well, it's your ball we're playing with dear.

Hang on a minute while I get into drag.

Ta very much dear.

Detective Chief Inspector Haskins, New Scotland Yard,

erm, could you please give me the present prison

the following two men are in.

Number one, Denis Woods, date of birth 1-9-35.

[phone ringing]

Morning Jack.

Governor.

Well she must have been some lady

if she could eat you both and spit you out.

Now, what is this?

I've said.

These are five years old.

Yeah, well you know our motto, we never give up.

Good, but why Woods and Davies?

In your room sir.

We don't have a secrets room Jack.

This is your own squad sitting in here.

I asked you a simple question, what's the simple answer?

Jack!

You're out of order in front of my troops.

You know the rules in this game.

If you wanna have a pop at me, in private.

Getting a rocket in front of DCs does not come right.

What rocket?

I'm working on something.

Well who's working on you?

You look like the M1 in a fog.

When it's right for your ears you'll be told.

I demand to be told now.

Request refused, sir.

Detective Inspector Regan, you have until nine o'clock

tomorrow morning to answer my question.

Failure to do so will result

in both of us going to see the Commander.

Don't forget your warrant card and pocket book.

Commander will want to take them from you

when he suspends you.

That I did not need.

You look beautiful.

Should see me ribs.

Well, I've got 24 hours, any ideas?

Why not go to A10?

What and get taken off the case?

Noah's lying right?

Soon as A10 are in they'll bang a caution on him

for the tape alone.

He's admitted a criminal offense on it.

Do you reckon he'd start telling the truth?

He might Governor.

No way, Mills wouldn't let them anywhere near him

without his brief saying, "Don't answer, don't answer."

No, I'm the only one who can find Noah, I've got to.

Permission to speak.

Woods and Davies know where he is.

No I want them following me not me them.

That way I'll know where they are when I do want 'em.

I've gotta find Hooter.

Listen, if we're short of time we better split up.

What should I do?

Well I'm supposed to be on duty.

You better stay here and look busy.

Oh, Jack, just a word please.

[suspenseful music]

You're not over busy at the moment,

our Canadian friend left via Shannon yesterday

so he's out of our hair for a few weeks.

The Divisional Commander Peckham is still screaming

about those handbag snatches.

He reckoned it's a hard core of 10 or 12 divided into teams

of three or four.

So, if you've got any spare you go looking south right?

Oh by the way, I see your two old friends

came up at the briefing, Woods and Davies.

Yeah?

And Davies is kipping down in Southport Street

not the address he gave on release.

With Johnny Standing's bird

in the flat over the launderette.

Standing's inside, she didn't let the bed get cold.

It's welcome back all the way.

They're driving around in mini cabs.

Any help?

Thanks.

Noah, you, you said you weren't violent.

What is all this?

Why do you want to hurt the dog?

I wanted you in here.

Some people do things and some write about 'em.

Look, I'm not a heavy, I'm a newspaper man.

I've got a wife and budgie.

You want my signed statement right?

Yes.

What happens then?

We research, we check up.

Then we publish, then you'll get paid the remainder.

What happens to me?

Well that depends.

On what?

Back off.

On what you want to do.

I wanna know that my mother's all right.

She can't deal without me.

Will Mr. Regan go on trial?

Probably, your conscience is clear.

Our lawyers will try to get immunity for you.

You'll give evidence against Regan.

He's the one who's bent.

You want my signed statement,

you don't get it 'til I see her.

You can't.

Oh yes I can.

Give it me, come on.

You'll let me phone her then.

Then you can have this.

And I'll write.

[camera shutter clicking]

He's going for Hooter.

Well you open your mouth Hooter

and it'll be later for you my old son.

Mills.

Tell me, everything's dandy but our friend won't make

any statement unless he's allowed to ring his mother.

I don't know what you want me to do, you said no calls.

How is he?

Just a little bit tense.

But we can't make a move if he won't--

All right, but no tricks.

I know he came to us but I don't trust these mugs

any further then I could spit 'em.

You know the number so you do the call.

Oh and Tommy, when you get that statement I want it full

and enough to run for a month of Sundays, don't forget.

It's okay, give me that number again.

[Man] Okay, Harry that's it.

Leave me alone Mr. Regan.

You played both sides you get what's coming son.

Doing, I told you about the booze up.

And look what happened.

What about me?

Horrible.

Listen, they haven't been out long enough

to pick up anything but beer money

so who's supplying them with mini cabs?

Oh, he's straight Mr. Regan.

He's a kinda little John Bentley round here, Manny Bellow.

Straight, with those two for mates?

Oh, I know it's disgusting but he's right down the middle.

I mean I tried shoving beer his way, keep the old wolf and that.

But he wouldn't have it.

Nothing bent, just trying to make my million Mr. Regan.

Through charity?

[Man] Come on Hooter.

Was he in here last night?

Coming, ah, yes, come to think of it he was.

You know drinking quiet, Norma Faces patting Ernie

on the back but he just sat there and I let him alone.

I've gotta go.

How long's he been on the manor?

Six or seven years.

He's got all the concessions round the boozers.

Where's his till?

You better tell me Hooter if you wanna be lucky.

Maybe she's out shopping.

She has it done for her.

Well, perhaps having a cup.

How old is she?

She sleeps in the afternoon.

Something's wrong.

Look, we've got permission, we can try again later.

Her fingers, they're like twigs.

Bloody Regan!

[camera shutter clicking]

[Jack] Manny Bellow?

That's right.

[radio chattering]

Can I help?

You know Denis Woods and Ernie Davies?

You the old bill?

I asked a question.

So did I.

[Driver] 2-9-2-9.

-Yeah. -Clear at Civics corner.

[Manny] Yeah.

-2-9-2-9. -Ex-cons usually traipse

around collecting beer money, you give 'em a mini cab, why?

-2-9 clear at Civics corner. -Oh, it's taken me

a long time to get accepted in this area.

I keep everybody sweet.

[Driver] 2-9-2-9.

Look at me, where are they?

[Driver] Clear at Civics corner.

[Manny] Okay Danny, I'll manage that.

I see you've got a lot of little numbers

going round here, all ready.

[Driver] 2-9 clear at Civics corner.

I'm a gentile Mr. Regan, like you.

Who told you my name?

I make it my business to know.

Everything I touch is legit.

I'm a very careful man.

With friends like yours you need to be.

But knowing my name was a bit careless, what's your height?

Five foot, nine.

You wouldn't mind if I spend a couple of hours

in the basement of Company's House going through

your interests Mr. Bellow?

Directorships, fellow directors.

[Manny] Not at all, but why?

I wanna know where you were on the night

of the 27th of December, 1969.

1969, I was living in Lemmington.

Do you remember where you were?

[Driver] Is there anybody reading me?

Woods, Davies and I were having an argument

about 18 grands worth of Christmas takings

and a certain dairy.

[Driver] 3-7-3-7.

Hold on a sec.

Mrs. Riley?

Yes, who is it?

Ma, Ma, how are you, you all right?

Where are you?

Why does somebody else have to ring me?

Tell me where you are.

Are you all right, give me that number.

Yeah I'm all right.

I can't give you the number.

Look nothing's wrong.

If nothing's the matter why aren't you here

where you should be?

Why is everybody looking for you?

And what's so important that you have to go away?

My health's all right, I'm just been ignored.

Ma, I'm all right.

I'm all right if you're all right.

I'm earning, I'm where I always wanted to be,

four star comfort, d'ya know what I mean?

All right son.

That Mr. Regan's been here.

Are ya eating enough?

[laughs] Yeah, I'm eating enough.

Are you eating enough?

Ah, how can I when I don't know

when you're going to ring again?

Well you tell anybody who wants to know that--

No tricks we said.

Well how that's gonna leave her?

She wants to know where I'm phoning from.

Your part of the bargain, Mr. Riley.

Yes Governor, there's been one.

Noah's mum, she wants to see ya.

Noah's been on.

All right, I'll go.

Listen George get on to Company's House,

dig up all the dirt you can on one Emmanuel Bellow, Manny.

I've still got 'em with me.

I'm keeping 'em out of trouble.

You tell Mr. Davies we're okay.

Mr. Woods says to say we're okay.

Good, you go home now Danny.

Dad.

Ey, come on son, home you go.

[Driver] I'm stuck in heavy traffic at Edgeware Road.

He has to wait for me with the wife gone.

The point is are we okay Manny?

I don't understand you.

I don't know what you want.

Denis wants his six grand.

I want mine.

Well it's all tied up.

You've got two thirds of the action, they're yours.

We earned it.

Look, if it's reddies you want there's some in there.

If you can hang on, let me take my time, sell it bit by bit,

there'll be 40 grand.

But I mean it's gonna take time.

Hot dogs, mini cabs, fish stalls, scaffolding.

I've already put another five grand into that escort agency.

Look, Ernie, I wanna try launderettes.

All you gotta do is check on her once a week and collect.

All the slaves do the running about, we draw the dough,

we're sleeping partners.

Please Ernie, see sense.

Stuff your fish food, all of it.

I wanted my dough minded.

I told you from Hull I had a plan, with reddies.

Regan's the plan, he's a cyst, then we're going.

Ernie, you've been away.

Is that so.

Your judgment might not be as sharp.

Look, Ernie, the only people we're doing are the tax lot.

Even the old bill do them.

We're legit.

Everybody loves me, even the old bill.

You've had a visit.

Well, well you don't think that I'm in with the old bill.

I told you he was coming.

Look, all I'm saying is things are moving.

I want my money.

Look, conveyancing, transfers--

Well, you conveyed it away from the dairy old son,

you'll just have to convey it back again to us, Friday.

Four star comfort.

Definitely four star?

Yes.

Now look Mrs. Riley, I don't know, neither do you,

whether that was a hint or not

but for a lot of reasons I've got to take it as one.

Who's in trouble, you or him?

Both.

All right, that's why I phoned you I suppose.

Yeah, I'm just waiting on the teleprinter

coming back on Bellow.

It'll take time Guv.

Ring round all the four star hotels and above.

You know where my little book is.

Only speak to security and make sure they're ex-coppers

and find out if there's a two up in any of the rooms

and his poison's vodka.

They'll be lacing him with it and he never comes out.

Now don't bother with reception and computers, fast.

When my Noah was born we could put him

in a two pound sugar box.

Stick with him Den I'll get down there.

Convey.

[Driver] 1-8-1-8 POB Marble Arch 1-8-1-8 POB Marble Arch

You frightened Dad?

[Driver] Oi, is anyone there?

Should I help?

[Ernie] Well?

[Denis] He aint come out yet.

[Muzak]

Would Mr. and Mrs. Fredrick Kennedy

from Boston.

[phone ringing]

Yes?

Governor, I reckon we've got him.

Where is he?

I'm gonna get him.

Now listen, until I come back you don't

open the door to anybody, all right?

Looks, what's he done?

Nobody and you lock the door behind me.

[camera shutter clicking]

Here we go.

He's tumbled 'em.

He's going where Noah's at.

You want me to follow him or you?

And I'll pop up and do her manicure, right?

[Ernie] No, we'll stick with him.

[Denis] I'll never get through that.

[Ernie] Go round the outside then, lively

Den you berk!

I never knew reverse was on the left,

I'm out of practice aint I?

Yeah, lost him.

Look, let's get back to mother Riley's doorstep.

She's bound to know where her little Nelly is.

[gentle music]

It's 4026, the way the vodka's been going in there

they'll be singing red sails in the sunset.

You get rid of Thomas.

[door knocking]

Telegram for Mr. Thomas.

[Charlie and Thomas shouting over each other]

Get off.

Listen, what in the hell are you doing?

Have a bath.

That dairy job was hit and miss.

'Cause when you tipped me off you didn't know when it was.

Thursday, Friday or Saturday, did ya?

Detective Sergeant Second Class

can't call up the cavalry can he?

You're a steaming idiot.

You've got a mother going out of her mind.

What the hell are ya playing at?

Noah.

Don't ask me Mr. Regan.

We've been mates a long time.

You're out of your tiny skull.

Friends don't lie so why are you lying?

You're lying because of mum.

You don't want her toes coming off so down I go.

You don't matter.

Oh yeah?

Why the four star clue then if I don't?

I don't know.

All right, you go ahead, you go to jail for a lie.

You weren't there, I know it, you know it

and Woods and Davies know it.

And I warn ya, you haven't got a snowball's chance in hell

of banging me up.

Well by the time I get through with my testimony

and Woods and Davies finish theirs, even with their form,

into why it was a mess up and where the money went--

You've still no chance.

Well maybe they don't even want you banged up.

Just create a stink.

Hold you lot up to the light and not a brain in sight.

Yeah, yeah, they want me loose on a dark night.

They're animals Mr. Regan, you don't know how.

[door rattling]

[door thudding]

I know where she is.

You've been fair but if it comes down to you or her,

I'll do bird for her every time.

I can protect her.

For how long?

Convince me I'm wrong.

Why the hell should I?

Look I like her but you're tryna bang me up in a big cell.

We'll crucify you in the box.

I'm the third man.

You and Manny Bellow?

So you were lying.

I don't help liars son.

Help me, help me.

Okay, okay, I'll put mum somewhere safe with men alongside

and you say nothing.

Right, I'll go with you.

No, no, you stay here.

Refuse to write anything but stay here.

Why, why can't you hide me with her?

Not on your sweet nelly.

Listen, I'll keep my promise.

Mum'll be safe and that's your clear

but when I've done A10 I'll want to talk to you

and that's my clear.

You stay here.

I can't stand being cooped up, how long for?

Just as long as it takes me

to prove conspiracy against those two lunatics.

[camera shutter clicking]

You can have him.

[Noah] You bastard Regan.

Your Noah's a right little thespian isn't he?

Where to know, A10?

Not yet, I keep my promises.

He'll only tell them what he told us.

Not 'til mum's safe.

I had to leave her, it were unofficial.

And I also had to lose Ratman and Bobin on the way here.

Even their thick skulls will work out

we must've got the information from her place.

They'll be there.

We'll collect.

Stairs.

Regan's been here.

Well they forced their way in.

They kept me in the loo.

They had a quick go at Noah, then they went

and now he won't say a bloody thing.

We'd started on the statement.

Wait, hold on a minute.

Noah's gone now.

Call it.

I'll say all the details and very slow, Regan, times,

what was done, words, exactly what was done to you.

These are the nails we need for running

through his hands and feet.

[phones ringing]

Okay, let's go.

I want the keys to the yard and the motors.

What's all the rush?

I need another motor, the Sweeney know mine.

Well come on, there's an old dear to transfer.

Who?

Keys you maniac.

[Manny] You tell me which old girl.

Temporary kidnapping my old son.

You've flipped Ernie, you've really done it.

We had an empire going here.

I'm seeing the lawyer tomorrow.

Tomorrow's yesterday, keys.

I've worked for this.

On my five years.

There's a lot of bricks to count when you're banged up.

I used to count up to 6,000 stop there

and every year add interest.

We're legit, there's no need for all this.

Thieving's all right, what you're doing--

Is necessary.

Are they in your safe?

No, no Ernie, I'm gonna save you from yourself.

I can't stand holy Joe's.

John the Baptist saw the seven steps to salvation,

now give me those keys.

No Ernie!

Give me those keys and I'll buy you a paper shop to eat.

[Driver] 5-2-5-2 POV Kings Cross, roger.

I take the keys home with me.

They're in the car.

[upbeat music]

Danny stop!

Now give me those keys son.

You leave my dad alone.

I aint gonna hurt ya, come on.

Nah, you pulled his hair off.

Look, if you don't help me your dad can't live.

Now come on.

You're mad, dad said you're mad.

Stay up there Danny, go on.

What the hell's going on here?

Get back to her, move her.

She can't--

Move her!

They can only have taken her to one of two places,

Manny Bellows' or Johnny Standing's birds' place.

I thought we said she couldn't move.

Every time that women thinks her bones scream.

[dramatic music]

Governor this was a new car.

Hello.

We have a perfectly adequate system

for investigating complaints.

I'm not talking about complaints Mr. Haskins

I'm proving corruption.

Regan is not only corrupt he will also intimidate witnesses

into not giving proper evidence.

If you will have the courtesy

to provide me with any proof.

Oh, I've got that Mr. Haskins believe me.

Guilt Mr. Mills--

Surely guilt, Mr. Haskins, lies in not reporting to you.

Not reporting what took place in this very office

36 hours ago to you or his Commander.

Has he done that?

If you think for one moment that I'm--

[phone ringing]

Excuse me will you.

Yes?

Regan, that docket you've been worrying about

and the two lunatics on it,

they've got hold of an old woman.

But it's a long complicated story for a trumpet call

so I'll explain later.

Listen, could you get all the troops

you can muster down Gollum Road?

The three-way mini cab office.

We've got lots of trouble.

Do we need firearms?

No, but plenty of muscle.

They're not gonna come easy.

Ah, Cully ring the pool for cars

and get everyone but everyone down front, this is urgent.

Mr. Mills bring everything that you have to me

at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.

If it holds water we'll go to A10 together.

You can't publish tonight

and I can't investigate my own squad.

In the back.

Well come on Den, get those wires going.

Give us a chance, this is a new set of wheels.

No one had this motor when I was around.

How we gonna do them gates.

Sledge hammer 'em down.

You forgot to tell us your kid only chucked yours.

Now, which are the keys to the transit?

We don't go in, what about the old woman?

No, we wait.

She can't tell 'em anything, she knows nothing.

What about my dad?

Look son if we go in now your dad could get hurt,

you want that?

-No. -And they got

enough bother on their hands with the old lady.

But mister--

Look, be good and quiet.

Oh George, this time we wait on the US Cavalry

according to the book.

I made that mistake the last time.

We wait here.

Come on Den, lively.

Right up behind that motor there.

That's it, now get in that transit.

Come on, look lively.

Come on missus hurry up.

All right, all right.

Well come on.

All right.

Careful.

Through them gates.

[dramatic music]

Leave it George, let him have the glory,

we need him on our side.

[grunts]

[all shouting over each other]

Are you all right madam?

Yes, thank you.

What have we got?

Well, take your pick.

Conspiracy to pervert me or kidnapping an old lady.

Yes, well stay away from it.

I have.

Until nine tomorrow, sharp, my office.

[dramatic music]

[Man] You all right?

[Frank] You failed to notify a superior officer

of an allegation of crime made against you.

You made a man allegedly a material witness against you.

You detained a man in a bathroom against his will.

You know, there's a multitude of offenses

under the discipline code they could throw at you

so why the hell didn't you come to me?

We could have gone to A10.

[Jack] The good book doesn't cover all circumstances.

I've gotta stand by what I've done.

It was done to save me.

[Frank] You and I have never seen eye to eye.

You went against the book and for me that's wrong

and if it's any help I'll put a word in.

Right, A10.

As the result of a little meeting I had this morning.

If it's any consolation I was torn into little bits too.

I'll never make Chief Inspector.

But I'm still a bloody good DI.
