Ruth quotes from Spooks

Ruth

On the head of the King, let all the sorrows lie?

Ruth

Angela believes that Princess Diana was murdered by the British Security Services. By us. [Jo laughs]

What's funny?

Nothing.

You find that funny?

No.

Funny? That your boss was on a committee that ordered the faking of the car accident which killed Diana?

Harry

Angela, what are you talking about?

I'm talking about you being chair of the contingent events committee.

Harry

The what?

The committee that organized, then ordered the assassination.

Harry

This is madness.

You can't deny there was such a committee.

Harry

I can. Angela, you must let us help you.

Zaf

Okay, I'm ready.

Adam

Now don't forget, we're only playing "What if?"

Zaf

You mean what if Harry organized the assassination of Princess Diana? I think he could have.

Ruth

You don't mean that.

Zaf

Don't I?

Ruth

It's the conspiracy theories, they suck you in.

Zaf

Yeah, they do. Some say it was caused by satanists because Diana's mercedes crashed into the 13th pillar in the tunnel. Then there's the theory that limo was stolen a month before by the Israeli secret service. The steering was modified so it could be controlled by a remote radio signal.

Ruth

Now Mossad did it?

Zaf

No. MI-5 and MI-6 did it in a joint operation. And I'll show you how. The British Embassy in Paris denied ever knowing that Diana had arrived in Paris. But they did. And the night before she arrived at the Ritz, two very high-ranking MI-6 officers arrived at the embassy.

Zaf

You awake?

Ruth

Didn't sleep.

Zaf

No, neither did I.

Ruth

I'm going to have to remind myself of why exactly I did this for the rest of my life.

Zaf

You know why.

Ruth

How much longer?

Zaf

Only a few hours now.

Ruth

And then?

Zaf

And then it's up to you.

Ruth

Yeah. If we ever bump into each other again... either here or abroad, I know what you are trained to say, but if we do...

Zaf

I'll smile.

Ruth

Promise?

Zaf

Of course. I smile at every pretty woman I pass.
