Taggart, Series 1

Taggart:
Who are you looking for?

Johnson:
That kidnapping story was a Tribune exclusive!

Taggart:
It wasn't my idea.

Johnson:
Now, a lot of folk are going to be waiting to go ahead with this story!

Taggart:
So?

Johnson:
So, how long are we going to be asked to withhold?

Taggart:
As long as necessary.

Johnson:
If that baby dies, your reputation isnae going to be worth a great deal, is it? What was your reason for taking the case? [Taggart ignores the question and starts to make his way to the station. Johnson follows him.] I don't want you to think that we in the Tribune are knocking the police, far from it. After all, we're doing you a favour withholding the story. We don't have to.

Taggart:
You'll get your story. There's a press conference this afternoon.

Johnson:
Will you be there? Or will you choose not to be?

Taggart:
Oh, I'll be there.
