CHRIS:

LEO:
Yes, I know Katherine.

CHRIS:
She's a bit of a spunk isn't she?

LEO:

CHRIS:
Yes she is, she's hot!

LEO:
No, no, I don't see it.

CHRIS:
You gotta open your eyes boy.

LEO:
Mate, ya wasting your time, she's on my side.

CHRIS:
Now, I'm the one who can pick them and I say she bats on my side.

CHRIS:
Oh, you're jealous aren't you?

LEO:
Oh…um…no.

CHRIS:
20 Bucks, may the best man win…

LEO:
Trust me on this, just don't go there.

KATHERINE:
How did you go?

CHRIS:
Oh...good, I just dropped off the 3 beer bottles to forensics; we should have clear prints for Cal Lewis and his buddies by the morning.

KATHERINE:
Fantastic...um good job.

CHRIS:
Yep, I was born to be a bar maid!

KATHERINE:
I don't think so, way too much attitude for that.

CHRIS:
You've got no idea about my attitude (smiles)

KATHERINE:
I'm willing to take a guess.

CHRIS:
Um...that's a provocative statement Miss Marks.

KATHERINE:
Oh...it was meant to be provocative Constable Dichiera

[Chris Laughs]

KATHERINE:
Anyway. You're um working so ah…

CHRIS:
Yes...I'm Working.

KATHERINE:
I'm distracting you...so I'll Leave ya to it (walks Away)

[Katherine walks away from Chris and goes and sees Luke, and walks straight back into where Chris is]

CHRIS:
Did you forget something?

KATHERINE:
Yeah...um (walks over to Chris and kisses her)

CHRIS:
(seductively) What are you doing? (Luke walks in...sees everything)

[Next Morning]

CHRIS:
So

KATHERINE:
Yes

CHRIS:
Somebody left bite marks on my back last night

KATHERINE:
Only on your back?

CHRIS:
I was being polite

KATHERINE:
Why? You weren't last night

CHRIS:
Neither were you

KATHERINE:
I was just following a lead

CHRIS:
You don't need any leading at all

KATHERINE:
I might sometimes

CHRIS:
Like when?

KATHERINE:
When you want it to be

CHRIS:
How bout tonight?

KATHERINE:
I'll see how my day pans out…

CHRIS:
You know where to find me…

KATHERINE:
I know a lot of things about you now…

[Later in the day, Katherine is interviewing Callum Lewis and Leo and Chris are in the Observation Room]

LEO:
These pricks get sent away for life

CHRIS:
Yeah me too... Oh, by the way, you owe me 20 bucks…

LEO:
What for?

[Chris looks at Katherine]

LEO:
Bullshit.

CHRIS:
I swear.

LEO:
You're an idiot, I told you not to do it.

'CHRIS:
Ah… don't be like that, you'll get over it.

LEO:
Crissy, I've already been there, like 2 weeks ago...

CHRIS:
Yeah right

LEO:
She's got a blue butterfly tattoo on her right arse cheek...

CHRIS:
Why didn't you tell me!

LEO:
I promised Harris I wouldn't tell anyone…

CHRIS:
Harris, why did you promise Harris for?

LEO:
Because she's his daughter

CHRIS:
Bullshit?

LEO:
Well, why do you think he's been giving me all the crap jobs lately…

CHRIS:
Shit, shit, shit, shit!

LEO:
Yep you're in deep shit...

[Leo and Bryan are waiting outside a University building waiting for Callum Lewis to exit so they can arrest him]

BRYAN:
You know what, sometimes I really regret not going to University

LEO:
Yeah, what would you study?

BRYAN:
Study... (laughs) ... mate I wouldn't be studying anything, I wanna hang around with chicks like that… (points to an attractive blonde teenager)

LEO:
Augh…

BRYAN:
Augh…

LEO:
What your sister?

BRYAN:
Ha Ha...shut up

[Angie is rather annoyed after she has found out that Peter and Luke planned a bust on Megan Walsh without informing her]

ANGIE:
I expect that sort of shit from Luke, but not from you Pete! We're mates, and after everything we've been through you do not treat mates like that!

PETER:
Ange, I'm sorry, I know you're angry.

ANGIE:
ANGRY!? No, I'm bloody furious; I have to calm down a hell of a lot to be angry! You guys run a sting on Megan Walsh; I have every right to be involved! I ran around like a bloody idiot for you, I broke all the rules and for what? To save your miserable arse!

PETER:
I understand. But it wasn't my call.

ANGIE:
What!?

PETER:
It wasn't my call.

[Luke walks in]

LUKE:
No it wasn't, it was mine. It was for your own good Ange.

ANGIE:
What!?

LUKE:
Well If Megan Walsh got even the slightest hint of what was going on the whole thing could have come undone, we needed you to do exactly what you did, be a loyal friend, and you were perfect. And if the shit hit the fan with I.A. there was no point in risking your career as well as ours.

ANGIE:
You patronising shithead!! You made a complete fool out of me!

LUKE:
Never mind...

ANGIE:
That's irrelevant, and while it makes my stomach turn, that either of you would treat me like that I really only have one thing to say, you two deserve each other, you're a perfect match!

[Angie leaves]

LUKE:
Give her sometime…

[Peter has just found out that Leo's cover has been blown]

LEO:
Well that's great isn't it...So how did Troy Jones get my photo!

PETER:
Well there police surveillance shots...No question...I checked with our lab.

LUKE:
Well how the hell did Troy Jones get his hands on them, unless he has access to someone in the Task Force?

ANGIE:
The only one who knows Leo's undercover with the Sumarto's is Rutherford.

PETER:
Buzz Rutherford won't betray a fellow cop, you don't know him like I do, I trust him with my life.

LEO:
It's not really your Life on the line now Peter.

LUKE:
Alright Leo it's your call, if you want to pull out now no-one will think the worse of you.

LEO:
Oh right, well maybe if I stay in so we can catch Serge's killer and the guy who took the Surveillance Photos, we'll give it a bit longer

LUKE:
Excellent answer. Peter, how would you like to shoot Leo?

PETER:
Don't tempt me!

LUKE:
Volunteer for the job. It's the best way to keep him alive

CHRIS:
Good call, he's a crap shot.

LUKE:
Chris you'll be there as backup, you might also prevent Peter from doing anything he might regret

[Everyone leaves except Angle and Luke]

ANGIE:
Are you going to follow up on Rutherford?

LUKE:
No...

ANGIE:
Why? Cause he's Peter's mate?

LUKE:
I'm not going to follow up on Rutherford 'cause you are

[Angie walks off with a rather pleased look on her face]
