DSU George Stark quotes from Luther

DSU George Stark

There was a park ranger. In America, that is. He was struck seven times by lightning. Seven times. Actually made the Guinness Book of Records for being the unluckiest guy in the world. Or maybe the luckiest guy in the world, depends on how you look at it.

DSU George Stark

DCI Luther will be taking on a case of a waste of semen called Jared Cass.

DS Justin Ripley

It was you. You had him assigned to the Jared Cass murder.

DSU George Stark

I want to know exactly how he handles that investigation. And I mean every move by move, breath by breath. If he breaks the law, I want his head on a stick.

DSU George Stark

[opening a book in Luther's flat] He underlines.

So?

DSU George Stark

We tend to underline observations that confirm our view of the world. Give me a day with those books, and I'll serve him to you on a plate.

DCI John Luther

[after barging in on Stark's operation, observing photos on the wall] Do you remember that show This Is Your Life? It's like the big red book. Except for all these people are dead. Well, most of them.

DSU George Stark

Don't make it any worse for yourself.

DCI John Luther

And who are you, exactly?

DSU George Stark

Me? DSU George Stark.

DCI John Luther

[scoffs] I'll tell you what, George. You're a big man, and I'm tired. But if we are gonna take lumps out of each other, it won't be the first one I've had tonight. And someone's gonna have to find out. Your boss, my boss. And they'll ask why, how I just walked in on your... operation. And how I walked out of here with all the evidence you've got against me. What's that gonna do to your reputation, eh? Now, you can continue if you want. Chase me down. [gets up and looms over Stark] But if you take me down, I'll take you down even faster and even harder.

DCI John Luther

George, if you sow these seeds...

DSU George Stark

And what? I reap the whirlwind? Is that right? You know your problem? You've spent your life thinking you're the whirlwind. Well, you're not because I'm the whirlwind, John. I'm the whirlwind.

DCI John Luther

We'll see.
