Sergeant Dan Scott : All right. I'll be honest with you, sir. Maybe I don't like the countryside. Maybe I can't tell one herd of chickens from another. I am prepared to put up with it for the time being.
DCI Tom Barnaby : Oh, you're prepared to put up with it.
Sergeant Dan Scott : Yeah, because I'm willing to learn. You see, with all due respect, sir, I've been involved with two murders from the moment I arrived here. I haven't had time to suss out the launderette or where the local post office is. And I'm tired. And it's Sunday.
DCI Tom Barnaby : And your tie is crooked.
Sergeant Dan Scott : Thank you, sir.
DCI Tom Barnaby : And you don't get Sundays off when you work with me.

DCI Tom Barnaby : [looks around at his surroundings] I... I'm afraid it is.
