Ruth Evershed : So, what are you getting Fiona for her birthday?
Adam Carter : Sorry, Ruth.
Ruth Evershed : What?
Adam Carter : You might be her mole. And even if you weren't, telling you would only put you in danger. Fiona takes her birthdays very seriously.

Adam Carter : I sometimes have to drug her the night before just to get her to sleep.
Ruth Evershed : I'm not a mole.
Harry Pearce : Glad to hear it.
Ruth Evershed : Harry. No, no, not, not that kind of mole. Um, Adam was joking about Fiona's...
Harry Pearce : It's alright, Ruth. I'm aware you were joking.
[to Adam]
Harry Pearce : Chocolates might be the answer. Nice ones, of course. Get Sam to nip across to that Belgian shop.
Adam Carter : Yeah that's, that's not a bad idea, Harry.
