ALEX: Guv, you know, it's, um...it’s okay to be scared. GENE: They went after you, Bols, a woman. I mean, that's a line, right there. ALEX: Yeah, but we can't sink to Riley's level. GENE: You know, there's always been scum, preyin’ on decent ordinary folk. There was a code of honour as well. You came at him from the front, not like a coward from the back. Everybody wants to be the centre of the universe these days - writin’ their own rules, doin’ whatever they want. ALEX: And what’re you planning to do? GENE: D’you know a good beatin’ clears the head, Bols. Our Mr Riley thinks he can run his little empire, thinks he can bump off a someone like Colin Mitchell without retribution. Well, I'm just workin’ out exactly what sort of retribution is required. ALEX: Will you promise me something, Guv? That we'll do this the right way. GENE: Sometimes, Bolly, you have to fight fire with fire.
