- DCI Cassie Stuart: Dr. Balcombe did various tests on the major bones and teeth. And she was able to determine, with actually a pretty good deal of certainty, that these remains are actually those of a young female between the ages of 13... and 15. So, this is not an adult, it's not even a young adult. This is the body of a child. So, as of now, we have a window of 34 years. And as soon as we hear back from A&C, we start searching for all missing children of that age. Uh, we're gonna start with the UK, but if we have to, we'll liaise with Interpol, and roll this out across Europe. Because not many children of that age go missing without leaving people behind. And, somewhere, there surely must be parents who have lived in a world of almost unimaginable pain for many, many years. Let's give them their child back.
- DS Murray Boulting: [holding up a missing person flyer] Anyone remember the Hayley Reid case?
- DC Jake Collier: She was on her way to a party, wasn't she?
- DCI Cassie Stuart: [nods] Mmm.
- DS Murray Boulting: From a shift at a pub.
- DS Sunil 'Sunny' Khan: New Year's Eve?
- DCI Cassie Stuart: It was the millennium. 1999. Awful, she just disappeared.
- DC Jake Collier: What was the name of the guy they thought did it? Mullins, was it?
- DS Sunil 'Sunny' Khan: Mullery. Adrian Mullery was the boyfriend.
- DC Fran Lingley: We were exactly the same age. Yeah, I remember, my Mum wouldn't let me get a Saturday job when that happened. Yeah, I remember her.
- Barry: [at a restaurant where Tim is celebrating with his family] Excuse me. Just wanted to say, Dr. Finch, for what it's worth, nobody I know believes a word of it.
- Dr. Tim Finch: [summons a waitress] This is corked.
- Waitress: Is it? Right, sorry about that, let me just...
- Dr. Tim Finch: No, no, no. You don't need to smell it. I smelt it. It's corked.
- Waitress: [pauses in mutual discomfort with Tim's family] I'll bring you another bottle.
- [last lines]
- Jessica Reid: [tearfully, on mobile] Yes, she had a plate fitted and it was in Cyprus.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: It's her.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: [just arriving at the new crime scene] I am so sorry.
- DS Sunil 'Sunny' Khan: It's not a problem.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: I woke up stupid early again, then fell asleep in my kitchen chair.
- DS Sunil 'Sunny' Khan: You tried valerian?
- DCI Cassie Stuart: No, I can't do sleeping pills. They zonk me out for the next day.
- DS Sunil 'Sunny' Khan: No, no, no, these are herbal. No, you're absolutely normal by 11, next day, easy.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: Right.
- DS Sunil 'Sunny' Khan: Although they do stink like rotting fish.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: Oh, they sound marvelous.
- James Hollis: How's he been the last few weeks, how's his mood been, would you say?
- Ed: I dunno, he's just seemed... really stressed.
- James Hollis: [sharply] Stressed?
- Ed: Yeah.
- James Hollis: Stressed by what?
- Ed: [shaking his head] Dunno.
- James Hollis: Stressed by watching back-to-back Family Guy all day long?
- Mel Hollis: James...
- James Hollis: Stressed by having to choose exactly how he's going to fuck my life up this week? What d'you think?
- Ed: I'm just trying to help, mate, but to be honest, it's not my problem. For what it's worth, having a father like you would stress the fuck out of anyone.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: [on a video call with Adam] And have you, um, started pronouncing words stupidly, yet?
- Adam Stuart: [mock American accent] Only when I eat oreh-gen-oh.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: [mock American accent] On your ris-oh-toh?
- Adam Stuart: New... New York's actually pretty like London, it's just cooler.
- DCI Cassie Stuart: Yeah, well, don't get too attached, 'cause you're not moving there.
- Adam Stuart: Oh. Am I not?
- DCI Cassie Stuart: Sorry. Needed here, I'm afraid.
- Adam Stuart: Right, you see I... I didn't realize I had no say in this decision.
- [laughing]
- Adam Stuart: How's Granddad?
