Inspector Morse, Series 7 (1993)

Morse:
Yes. But what would I do when I got there?

Lewis:
You mean, you've never come across him at the Lodge, Sir?

Chief Supt. Strange:
Not exactly, Serg... (to Morse) And what exactly is SO funny?

Morse:
Nothing. I was just reflecting on Sergeant Lewis' view of polite Oxfordshire society!

Morse:
I sent her some once before. They had a much higher price-tag!

Chief Supt. Strange:
Has the hospital confirmed who it is?

Lewis:
John Peter Barry sir, also known as the "Devils Disciple".

Chief Supt. Strange:
Oh God!

Lewis:
They discovered him gone at seven this morning.

Chief Supt. Strange:
Did they say how he got out?

Lewis:
No, no details sir, but we do know that Barry’s as sharp as they come.

Chief Supt. Strange:
Don’t we just!

Chief Supt. Strange:
Something like what? I simply want you to go there early and get the li of the land.

Morse:
Your gambling with that women’s life. At the very least it's a professional dubious course of action.

Chief Supt. Strange:
Don't you lecture me on professionalism matey. (quiet pause) Look what if we pull this off, ah. We’d of done everyone a favour.

Morse:
I don’t know everyone! But I know who Holley Travis is and I know her husband. We put her in this predicament and now we’re guna compound that by trying some gun hoe rescue attempt.

Chief Supt. Strange:
I think you’ve said enough, don’t you chief inspector?

Morse:
I really don’t know sir, but you can help me there. Is there any point in putting my argument to higher councils?

Chief Supt. Strange:
Absolutely none!

Morse:
I see, calls to make and soundings to take.

Chief Supt. Strange:
You know the rules.

Morse:
The rules.

Morse:
I understand the lifestyles were incompatible.

Mrs Baydon:
No, No! she liked the life. She liked the money. (pause) It was the sex. He was no good, at sex, not even very interested and many artists have healthy appetites you know. Well Gwladys is not as beautiful as she once was perhaps and her taste is for very young men.
