In this episode: Gene Hunt (6), Alex Drake (4), DS Ray Carling (4), DCI Jim Keats (1), Shaz (1)

[extremely annoyed] Right, you lot, sit down and do some bloody work! I've got D&C coming down on me like a ton of bricks, and all you bastards can do is bicker like girls! It ends now! Right, can we just have five minutes peace and quiet, while I feed my hangover a small Scotch, thank you?

[After Chris finds a severed hand in the mail] Looks like you got your hand-job after all, mate.

[Keats brings Ray to his office to interview him as part of his evaluation of CID]

Take a seat Ray.

Blimey. It's hotter than a Majorcan minge in 'ere!

Sorry. Poor bloody circulation.

[Comparing their false dating forms]

You know what!? You'll get every soppy, pustular virgin this side of the Blackwall Tunnel!

[smugly] At least I'll get some replies.

[Having apprehended a potential murder suspect]

Are you a killer, Harris?

HHarris

No, Mr Hunt!

Are you a dishonest little scrotum who's been buying shit lager with somebody else's chequebook?

HHarris

Yes, Mr Hunt!

[Gene grabs Harris in a headlock]

[exasperated] Is this strictly necessary?

No, but it's bloody good fun!

[After Drake learns she was lied to at a speed-dating event]

[chuckling] The oldest trick in the book. "Oh, the wife's just died. I'm bringing up two kids on me own". Next thing you know, your ankles are right behind your ears!

Looks like you've been stitched up like a kipper, Bolly!

[furious] Little shit! Let's get him!

I know your professional pride is...

Piqued?

Trampled on like a dead rat. But one gloomy prognosis doesn't make a case, we need evidence. [to Chris] See if he's got a record.

I could go in again as bait.

No, he's already seen you. He liked them young.

[offended] I am young, you rude git!

[After Shaz has played an instrumental part in bringing down a killer]

Can I just say, that I might not have been the biggest supporter of women in the police force. [the rest of CID laugh] Hey, it's not my fault I've got an illness with a posh name! What's it called?

Misogyny.

But what Shaz did tonight was incredible. [the others applaud] And I for one am very proud to have been a colleague of yours. [the others applaud and cheer]

Right Shaz, let's put an end to this leaving nonsense!

Guv, I thought you said you wouldn't mention it!

I lied. It's long been an ambition of mine to see you out of your uniform -- [the rest of CID laugh]

GUV!

No, I mean out of THE uniform. What I'm trying to say is you keep up this quality of work, you'll be in CID by Christmas!

You know, Keats and people like him, they wanna take us down, Alex. So whatever he says... don't help him.
