- DCI Tom Barnaby: You might be hurting a little bit too, Scott, once Zara is finished with you. I don't think that girl is as meek as you think she is.
- Sergeant Dan Scott: Oh no, she's a, she's a shy one, sir. Bet you can tell. Anyway, I think being locked in the cellar all night by a triple murderer is a better excuse than saying the car broke down, there was no signal on the mobile. Oh, Zara...
- Zara: Before you say anything, I'm really sorry about last night, but the car broke down; I was stuck for hours.
- Sergeant Dan Scott: What?
- Zara: I did try my mobile, but I couldn't get a signal; it's just...
- Sergeant Dan Scott: That's okay. No worries. It's fine.
- Zara: I've got a friend that might like to go out with you.
- Sergeant Dan Scott: Really? Thanks anyway.
- [Zara walks over to another guy and kisses him]
- DCI Tom Barnaby: Oh, she'll take a long time to recover, Scott, no question.
- [finishes his beer]
- DCI Tom Barnaby: Well, I must be off.
- Sergeant Dan Scott: Don't forget the yoghurt, sir.

- Steve Hope: [Sarah fondles his right buttock] Mmm, yes! Oh, it's you.
- Sarah: Cheeky sod! Who else is it going to be?
- Steve Hope: I have my admirers.
- Sarah: In your dreams you do. Anyway, get a move on. I want you to do that shopping on the way back.
- Steve Hope: How's it going inside?
- Sarah: Mr Turner hasn't got up yet, and Mrs Turner is downstairs taking coffee with Mrs Wilmot. They're just rushed off their feet.
- Bernie: Come and have a cup of tea. Or maybe something stronger.
- Antonia Wilmot: Do they know who did it?
- Bernie: I think they'd be spoiled for choice in the enemies of Otto Department.
- DCI Tom Barnaby: Can you give Joyce a ring, please, Scott? I just want her to know that everything is all right.
- Sergeant Dan Scott: Hello, Mrs. Barnaby? This is Dan Scott.
- Joyce Barnaby: Oh, Daniel. How lovely to hear from you.
- Sergeant Dan Scott: Yeah. Mr. Barnaby asked me to call you to let you know everything was all right. We were unavoidably detained last night. But now we're... yeah. Yeah. Well, I'll tell him.
- DCI Tom Barnaby: What? What is it?
- Sergeant Dan Scott: Mrs. Barnaby asked if you could pick up a carton of plain yogurt on your way home this evening, sir. You're having curry tonight.
- DCI Tom Barnaby: Yes. Thank you. Thank you, Scott.
- Cabbie: I know you, don't I ? You're on the telly.
- Mike Spicer: Well, just um, some sort of little trivial game show. Mike Spicer's Game of your life!
- Cabbie: Oh, that was awful.
- Otto Benham: Oh, just through the gate, sir. You can pull out by the chariot.
- Otto Benham: Bernie, is that you? What are you doing? For god's sake, call the police. Bernie!
- Bernie: You're in a bit of a pickle, aren't you?
- Otto Benham: Oh, you stupid woman! Do something. Call the police! Did you hear me?
- Bernie: Can I suggest... about five degrees to the left?
- Otto Benham: Nooooooo!
- Sergeant Dan Scott: I think I know that one.
- DCI Tom Barnaby: Yeah, you do. You know the face, you know the glasses, local celebrity and former TV quiz show host Mike Spicer.
- Sergeant Dan Scott: Bloody hell, he was awful.
