- Scary Mary Jackson: [in the morgue talking to Gill and Julie about skeletons neatly arranged on gurneys] Number One's Michael. The others are numbered in the order we unearthed them. So, Michael and remains Two and Three were in Grave A. Remains Four and Five were in Grave B, and Remains Six and Seven were in Grave C. So, to reiterate, they all underwent some form of dismemberment. Remarkably few bones missing. Teeth, nails, small bones, they're all there. Four and Five are missing vertebrae from the neck, that's all, but they were both decapitated, presumably to fit into Grave B, which was smaller than the other two. And that would account for it. Hacking away at the neck, you're going to dislodge something.
- Sean McCartney: [sitting on the sofa as Rachel enters their flat] Hallelujah! Nice to see you.
- DC Rachel Bailey: Oh, whatever.
- Sean McCartney: It's nice of you to pop in.
- DC Rachel Bailey: Do you want to have this conversation or shall I just walk out again?
- DC Janet Scott: Nice interview, by the way.
- DC Rachel Bailey: Yeah?
- DC Janet Scott: Mmm.
- DC Rachel Bailey: Be nicer when he coughs.
- DC Janet Scott: I was waiting for you to ask him why he...
- [laughs]
- DC Janet Scott: Um...
- DC Rachel Bailey: What? Why he what?
- DC Janet Scott: Why he wanked on his mattress.
- DC Rachel Bailey: Oh, shut up!
- DC Janet Scott: That's attractive, Joe. But why? No really, why would you? To make it smell better? Or because you'd mistaken it for a toilet or a tissue?
- DC Janet Scott: He's called Phil Cairns. Phillip Cairns. You'd have been twelve at the time that he visited your house in Peveril Street, in the January of 1977.
- Helen Bartlett: Okay.
- DC Janet Scott: He was homeless. He had no money. Joe, your dad, picked him up near Piccadilly Station and offered him food and shelter at your house. Was that normal at your house?
- Helen Bartlett: People... Lads... came and went. I don't remember any of their names. I told you, they never stayed long and I never bothered with them.
