Taggart, Series 1
Mike:
Why here?
David:
Meet the man that killed Margaret. You wanted somewhere private. Where's more private than a cemetery? How'd you find me?
Mike:
Phoned the Tribune. Spoke to that reporter, Laurie Johnson. Why are you staying there?
David:
Do you expect me to stay with you?
Mike:
[Sighs] ...I need a favour, a big favour. We've got a son, Christopher. He's ten months old. He's been kidnapped. They're asking a ransom of £50,000. They say they'll kill him if I phone the police. So I'm not gonna... [Sighs] Did you know we had a son?
David:
I heard.
Mike:
A daughter too, she's six.
David:
Everything gets to you inside.
Mike:
I've nae right to ask... it's your money they're after.
David:
How'd you know?
Mike:
All that stuff about you in the papers.
David:
You make me laugh(!)
Mike:
Davey, I don't know what we're gonnae do!
David:
You left me to rot in there. A year campaigning, and then nothing. Not even a letter. Was it guilt that stopped you visiting us? Or were you just too busy bringing up a family?
Mike:
Come on, look at what I did do for you!
David:
You know what kept me going? Knowing there'd be compensation when she was found. A lot of it. I wasn't coming out to do a trip down the social. That money is all I've got. I've earned it.
Mike:
So you'll no' help me?
David:
Why should I?
