The guv wanted me to see if you're doing anything stupid. You're not are you?

No.

Annie Cartwright

Right, that's me off duty then.

[She turns and starts walking away]

Annie, I just wanted you to know, the business with...

Annie Cartwright

...Layla.

Yeah, it's not what you think.

Annie Cartwright

Y'know it's none of my business.

It was just unfinished business and now it's finished. That's all. [He smiles and kisses Annie on the cheek]

Annie Cartwright

Bye, Sam. [She turns to leave but then turns back] And get some sleep. [She leaves]

Tyler!

Sam! Help us!

Now that's just showing off.

[To Annie] Are you alright?

[She nods]

I told you I'd never leave you.

Well, good for us!

Get off. I'm not a fairy!

Tell me...

Tell you what, Sam?

Tell me what I should do, Annie.

[Pause]

[Emotionally] Stay. Here. Forever.

Okay, then. I will.

[They kiss]

[Gene pulls up in the car]

TYLER! Put that soppy plonk down and get in! Blag on at Archer Lane, shots fired, lovely! [Chris and Ray emerge from the pub] You two tarts, get in! And you, flash knickers!

You shouldn't be driving with that leg.

Well, I am.

You were shot.

Yeah, and so will you be in a minute if you don't get in!

[On the car radio, Sam hears a doctor speaking]

DDoctor

We're losing him. Sam? Sam?

[Can hear heartbeat go faster then flatline.]

I hate this channel.

[Sam switches radio channels and Life on Mars? quietly plays. Sam turns the volume up.]

That's better.

What are you doing, Raymondo?

Can't get the door shut.

I should be driving.

You drive like my Aunt Mabel!

If you injure someone while driving this, it's technically a criminal offence!

Oh shut up, you noncey-arsed fairy boy!

[smiling to himself] Such elegant banter! Try and keep under 70, oh, and radio for uniform!

I don't need plod getting in the way!

It's procedure! You're not above the law, you know, guv!

What're you on about? I AM THE LAW!

Yeah, in your dreams.
