The Fourth Protocol1987

Brian Harcourt-Smith:
[after Preston finds out about the polonium disc and presents his report] I regard this report as alarmist, irresponsible and lacking sufficient evidence.

John Preston:
[surprised and irritated] Evidence? Can't you read? [Forcefully] That metal disc can only be used as part of trigger for an atom bomb...

Brian Harcourt-Smith:
That remains to be seen. Don't think I don't know what's goin' on Preston. You're trying to worm your way back into favours by dreaming up some far fetched story of which you naturally are the hero...

John Preston:
And you're trying to kick out anyone who doesn't make themselves available to get your arse. But if you were to look at this thing straight, just for a moment, you'd find that there is something goin' on out there...

Brian Harcourt-Smith:
It is my prerogative as the head of this country's security service... [interrupted by a visibly disgusted John Preston]

John Preston:
*Acting head* sunshine. And if you ask me you're acting like a complete a**hole.

Brian Harcourt-Smith:
[after a brief pause a fuming but restrained Harcourt-Smith takes the report and writes as he speaks aloud] NO FURTHER ACTION. And you are suspended for insubordination, indefinately. [a frustrated Preston has a resigned look on his face]
