[last words of episode and series:
the police have recaptured escaped prisoner Crazy Frankie, and have arrested Arthur for harboring a wanted criminal and Ray and Dave as Arthur's accomplices; they are all being driven away in a police van]

Arthur Daley:
Oh that is nice. That is very nice. I spend my life worrying about my fellow man, my friends, my family, making sure 'Er Indoors has a crust, pushing the economy of this septic isle ever upwards with my entrepreneurial skills. I don't have to apologise for that. Oh God, I've tried.

Frankie:
He don't half go on, don't he?

Dave Harris:
And on.

Ray Daley:
And on.

Arthur Daley:
I don't understand it. Why me? Why me? Have I not always conducted my life with decency and dignity? Have the time-honoured values of yesteryear deteriorated to the point that there is no place left in the black economy for men of vision?
