Quotes4

  • Detective-Inspector McCall: Only three people here? You're sure?
  • David Stephens: Yes, absolutely. Who said there were four?
  • Detective-Inspector McCall: Make a note of that, Mitchell. Only three, rather than four. Write it down. You can use numbers or words. I have no preference. Which are you using?
  • Detective-Constable Mitchell: Both, sir.
  • Detective-Inspector McCall: Excellent.
  • Detective-Inspector McCall: In your work you must meet lots of different people every day. New people, new faces, no?
  • Juliet Miller: Yes.
  • Detective-Inspector McCall: What do you recognize most, names or faces?
  • Juliet Miller: Diseases.
  • Detective-Inspector McCall: Like recognizing criminals by their crimes.
  • Detective-Inspector McCall: And the other three people living in the flat?
  • David Stephens: There are only two other people living in the flat.
  • David Stephens: [David is being interviewed by detectives McCall and Mitchell about the burglary in the flat] So I just heard her cries for help and all that. And when I went downstairs there were already those other people there. So I just stood around, you know, waiting - the way people do. And when your colleagues arrived, I came back upstairs. That's about all I think. I didn't actually see anything useful, I don't think.
  • Detective-Inspector McCall: And the other three people living in the flat, did they hear anything?
  • David Stephens: There are only two other people in the flat.
  • Detective-Inspector McCall: [looks quizzically at Mitchell then flips through his notebook] Two?
  • David Stephens: Who said there were four?
  • Detective-Inspector McCall: We understood there were four people living here. Not always, of course, but now. Four.
  • David Stephens: No, three. Who said there were four?
  • Detective-Inspector McCall: [looks to Mitchell] How strange. And how unsatisfactory to have misleading information.
  • [looks back to David]
  • Detective-Inspector McCall: Only three people here? You're sure?
  • David Stephens: Yes, absolutely. Who said there were four?
