[Fitz and Penhaligon reconstruct the events at the scene of a rape in an alley]
Dr. Eddie 'Fitz' Fitzgerald : He steps out. He comes down. Bang, bang, bang. Cormack drops down. He grabs his accomplice by the hand. They start running up the alley. Do you remember the soldiers coming back from the Falkands?
DS Jane 'Panhandle' Penhaligon : Just about.
Dr. Eddie 'Fitz' Fitzgerald : Remember all those women who lined the quays, waving their knickers and their bras in the air? Patriotism, no. Lust! Some of those men had killed, and those women wanted them. What is death, Panhandle?
DS Jane 'Panhandle' Penhaligon : The finest aphrodisiac in the world, Dr Fitzgerald.
Dr. Eddie 'Fitz' Fitzgerald : Right. Now there, a button off a pair of Levis. Somebody undid his trousers in a hurry. There, there's long strands of hair. So what happens is... They run up the alley. They stumble and they fall. They help each other up. They're frightened. But they're turned on too. So - 'scuse me - he pins her to the wall, he tears at his trousers, the button goes flying. And they have sex. Great sex. The earth doesn't just move, it registers 8.9 on the Richter Scale. Mass evacuation of Southern California time. Rip-roaring, rivetting, shaking, shuddering sex.
DCI David Bilborough : You're sick.
DS Jane 'Panhandle' Penhaligon : 8.9?
Dr. Eddie 'Fitz' Fitzgerald : Give or take a tremor, yeah.
DS Jane 'Panhandle' Penhaligon : I'd sooner watch Arsenal.

Chief Super : This girl Tina. What do you aim to get out of her?
Dr. Eddie 'Fitz' Fitzgerald : [Dryly] How far did your wife go on your second date?

Dr. Eddie 'Fitz' Fitzgerald : [as he shows up hungover at a murder scene] If I was a house, I'd be condemned.

[Fitz tells Bilborough that they previously had Sean in custody]
DCI David Bilborough : You had him in custody!
DS Jimmy Beck : For taking and driving away, sir! That's all!
DCI David Bilborough : Fitz recommended a psychiatric!
DS Jimmy Beck : I don't recall that, sir! Did he put it in writing?
DCI David Bilborough : [to Penhaligon] You were there.
DS Jane 'Panhandle' Penhaligon : I don't recall, sir.
Dr. Eddie 'Fitz' Fitzgerald : [quietly] Hell hath no fury.
DS Jane 'Panhandle' Penhaligon : If that conversation did take place, Dr. Fitzgerald would have every right to say "I told you so". He's obviously dying to say "I told you so", so let's just assume...
DCI David Bilborough : THAT'S ENOUGH!
DS Jane 'Panhandle' Penhaligon : Let's hear him say it! We're the ones who've lost a friend, but to Hell with that because Dr. Fitzgerald wants to say "I told you so"!
DCI David Bilborough : You finished?
DS Jane 'Panhandle' Penhaligon : I can recall no such conversation, sir.

DS Jimmy Beck : He's throwing fits, Fitz.
Dr. Eddie 'Fitz' Fitzgerald : I'm in custody, custody
