Taggart, Series 1

Taggart:
Uh-huh? Who sent you?

Livingstone:
I came to see how you were.

Taggart:
Pour yourself a drink.

Livingstone:
It's too early in the morning for me.

Taggart:
[Raising his voice] It's too early for me as well! Pour yoursel' one!

Livingstone:
[Reluctantly pouring himself a Scotch] When are you going to stop wallowing in self-pity?

Taggart:
What?!

Livingstone:
The first time I worked with you, I came to the conclusion you were a bastard. Well, this time I've come to a different conclusion.

Taggart:
Have you?

Livingstone:
Frankly, I'd rather see the bastard.

Taggart:
Really?

Livingstone:
[Sitting down] The Mint says he gave you the chance to look for that trunk.

Taggart:
And the chance to make another mistake. It was a long shot. The Clyde's a long river.

Livingstone:
You have your likely spots where a car could pull up, starting near Dalmally Road.

Taggart:
Out there a baby's lying dead. Right now, that's the most important thing to me.

Livingstone:
So, why resign?

Taggart:
[Sighs] Well... We all need faith in something, Peter. Someone. [Getting his little green buddha out of his coat pocket] Remember me telling you about Al Mackie?

Livingstone:
Yeah, he went to Japan and became a Zen Buddhist.

Taggart:
He achieved something because he believed in it.

Livingstone:
And you believe there was more to Margaret Balfour's murder, well now's the chance to prove it!
