Episode Quotes

(To Sam about Dickie Fingers' confession)
Annie: You've got to tell DCI Hunt.
Hunt: Got to tell me what? Well, it's all becoming clear now. Glances across the canteen. Late night conversations in the office. Before you know it, Cartwright, you'll be stuck at home with nine kids doing the ironing while he's touching up the youngest blonde in the typing pool. Don't say I didn't warn you.
Sam: How does your missus put up with you?
Hunt: Must be my legendary prowess as a lover.

Hunt: (to Sam) You know, if I was as worried as you, I'd never fart for fear of shitting myself.

(Before arresting Arnold Malone)
Hunt: Don't move! You're surrounded by armed bastards!
