Chief Superintendent Reginald Bright: A reprimand is one thing. Humiliating junior ranks in front of senior officers is quite another.
DI Ronnie Box: I was putting her straight.
Chief Superintendent Reginald Bright: Indeed, and let me put you straight. I will be making express requests to Division the Hobbs case be taken back solely into Cowley's hands and you will not oppose it. Am I understood?
DI Ronnie Box: She was asking for it.
Chief Superintendent Reginald Bright: Don't ever let me hear you talk to one of my officers like that again. Hm.
DI Ronnie Box: Well, we all know you've got a bit of a soft spot for her, sir.
Chief Superintendent Reginald Bright: I beg your pardon?
DI Ronnie Box: Proper little Chief Super's pet. Maybe that spot's not so soft, eh?
Chief Superintendent Reginald Bright: One phone call from me to Division, you'll find yourself facing a disciplinary board.
DI Ronnie Box: Extension 388. Ask for the Chief Constable. It's a new world out there. By the book's all well and good. But it's fire with fire that gets results. Division knows it even if you don't.
Chief Superintendent Reginald Bright: Get out! Go on, before I forget myself! Get back... to whatever disgusting sewer you crawled out from! And don't ever dare to show your face in my station again. Or I promise you, you'll have cause to regret it.
