- Rev. Aubrey Stewart: So why don't you tell us what you're doing with yourself, now you've been thrown out of the police?
- Samantha Stewart: I wasn't thrown out, I resigned. Anyway, I can't tell you anything except I'm making a vital contribution to the war effort.
- Rev. Aubrey Stewart: I'll drink to that.
- Samantha Stewart: It's not the same, you know, sir. You should have stayed.
- DCS Christopher Foyle: Really?
- Samantha Stewart: Well, if you're writing a wartime history of the Hastings police, you ought to stay until the last chapter.
- DCS Christopher Foyle: No... Belongs to somebody else.
- Samantha Stewart: DCS Meredith, you mean. He was the one who fired me.
- Rev. Aubrey Stewart: I thought you said you resigned?
- Samantha Stewart: Well, I would have... Given the chance.
- Adam Everitt: Miss Stewart?
- Samantha Stewart: Yes?
- Adam Everitt: I'd just like to say about this afternoon... It's not good to eavesdrop, especially in a place like this.
- Samantha Stewart: I don't know what you're talking about.
- Adam Everitt: Well, listening on things that have nothing to do with you. I'd be... careful, if I were you.
- Samantha Stewart: Are you threatening me?
- Adam Everitt: I'm just advising you not to repeat things you shouldn't have heard in the first place.
- Samantha Stewart: Eh... It's Mr Everitt, isn't it?
- Adam Everitt: That's right.
- Samantha Stewart: Well, I'd forgotten all about it, if you really want to know.
- Adam Everitt: I'm glad.
- Samantha Stewart: But as you're so worried about it that you've come out here to bully me, I'm going to mention it to everyone I can!
- Sgt Brooke: [Surprised] Mr. Foyle!
- DCS Christopher Foyle: Good morning.
- Sgt Brooke: Sir... Well, don't tell me... are you coming...
- DCS Christopher Foyle: Only for a while. Just a temporary arrangement 'til we sort out what happened to Mr. Meredith. Okay?
- Sgt Brooke: Sir. Well, thank goodness someone at the top has finally shown a bit of sanity.
- DCS Christopher Foyle: Right. You question the judgement of any senior officer in front of me ever again I'll make sure you're transferred and demoted. Better still, I'll have you discharged.
- [Foyle leaves]
- Sgt Brooke: [Genuine big grin] Nice to have him back.
- Samantha Stewart: All the raids that are going on there now, you wouldn't believe it...
- DCS Christopher Foyle: [Holding his hand up] You might want to stop there.
- Samantha Stewart: I haven't done anything wrong, have I, sir?
- DCS Christopher Foyle: You mean apart from breaking the Official Secrets Act?
- AC Henry Parkins: [as Foyle is walking toward him] Mr. Foyle.
- DCS Christopher Foyle: Uh-oh!
- Rev. Aubrey Stewart: What is it?
- DCS Christopher Foyle: Trouble!
- W/Cmdr Stephen Foster: I thought you'd have better things to do with your time.
- DCS Christopher Foyle: You'd be surprised.
- Joyce Meredith: [to Foyle and Milner] Justice won't help my husband now, will it? But I know you'll do your best.

- Henry Scott: Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned.
- Father Martin Keppler: How long since your last confession?
- Henry Scott: Two weeks.
- Father Martin Keppler: Tell me your sins.
- Henry Scott: I... have broken the sixth commandment.
- Father Martin Keppler: "Thou shalt not *kill*."
- Henry Scott: I have killed. I have committed murder.
