14.107 The Rate for the Job

BEECH: He’s one of the best, old Geoff. Straight down the line. BOULTON: Oh, I’m his biggest fan, Don. Second only to you.

BOULTON: Eat that. PROCTOR: Aw, blimey. BOULTON: That’s an order.

PROCTOR: And we’re shopping, right? That’s our cover, yeah? BOULTON: Well, shelf stacking involves intellectual skills, so shopping, yeah. SKASE: Baskets or trollies? BOULTON: Well, you’re gonna be in there a long time, so I would’ve thought trollies would make a bit more sense, wouldn’t you? SKASE: Now I know why they made you sergeant. PROCTOR: Er, what should we load up with? BOULTON: Just whatever gives you a bit of credibility. SKASE: There are three of them, yeah? BOULTON: Yes. SKASE: And they’re coming in with iron bars and lumps of wood? BOULTON: That’s our information, yes. SKASE: Right. I’m going to load up with disposable nappies. BOULTON: Thanks for the input, Rod. Let’s get back to the nick, shall we?

I love this exchange so much. Tom and Rod both having fun with John, and John actually going along with it, as much as he tries to act grumpy. *coughOT3cough*

John really should’ve taken Rod along instead of Tom. Rod would’ve just given him a concerned look, instead of getting him to back down.

BOULTON: So, as far as the target’s concerned, my role in this is…? BEECH: Bagman. BOULTON: So who am I? Am I just some little scrote who owes you one? BEECH: Yeah. Scouser, bit handy, touch of the psycho… just be yourself.

Don’s so smart here. He doesn’t pretend to be spotless, but paints a picture of bending the rules that John will be okay with: the occasional exaggeration of evidence; a little rough handling of suspects. He gets John onside by claiming—validating—John’s own tactics, instead of his own way of breaking the rules.

Not generally a big fan of episodes focused on Don being bent, but this one has some killer lines in it, and it’s more about getting one over on Geoff in the end, which I’m always down for. (Yeah, there’s a Daly plot going on too in this episode, despite my lack of caps. Sorry, not sorry.)

The colouring and lighting are terrible in this episode, alas.
