Unforgotten (TV Series)

Episode #2.6 (2017)

Nicola Walker: DCI Cassie Stuart

Quotes 

• DCI Cassie Stuart : You don't need to say anything.

  DS Sunil 'Sunny' Khan : Look. I just hope... this doesn't affect our work. Or, or our friendship.

  DCI Cassie Stuart : It won't. It hasn't. Alright? I promise.

  [smiling] 

  DCI Cassie Stuart : Now piss off.

• Colin Osborne : [in a pub with Marion and Sara]  They have no proof of anything, Marion, and they never will have.

  Marion Kelsey : But they know.

  Colin Osborne : But knowing something and proving it in a court of law are two very different things.

  DCI Cassie Stuart : [approaching their booth]  Yeah, they are. Very different.

• Mark Roberts : Paxton? Don't recall a Len Paxton. Before my time, probably.

  DCI Cassie Stuart : Really?

  Mark Roberts : Sorry?

  DCI Cassie Stuart : Well, no, it's just, um... Well, I found him with a simple Google search, so...

  Mark Roberts : What you asking me about him for, then?

  DCI Cassie Stuart : Because I want to know what happened to him after he left prison in 1988 for assaulting two boys from a platoon in Dumfries.

  Mark Roberts : Look, this is all ancient history.

  DCI Cassie Stuart : Do you know, I, I am getting really pissed off with that expression, because it's just not. The sort of things that people like Len Paxton did, they're still affecting people today. Catastrophically. It... fucks up whole lives. Okay? So unless you want me to come back tonight when all the parents are here, I'd start trying a little harder to remember if I were you.

• [last lines] 

  DCI Cassie Stuart : Okay. So... This is... significant. Sunny, this is... a pretty fucking huge thing I would do here.

  DS Sunil 'Sunny' Khan : You?

  DCI Cassie Stuart : Mm-hmm, yeah. To be absolutely clear: this is just me. You would never be implicated in any decision I make. But if you have a single shred of doubt, please, you, you tell me now. You tell me to go and see Andrews first thing tomorrow morning, report everything, tell him I saw them all together.

  DS Sunil 'Sunny' Khan : [sighs, head in hand]  I don't believe they could be charged, and I see no point in disrupting their lives further. So, no, I won't tell you to do that.

  DCI Cassie Stuart : [gives Sunny a peck on the cheek]  You're alright, do you know that?

  DS Sunil 'Sunny' Khan : You're not so bad yourself.

  DCI Cassie Stuart : I'm gonna leave now, before you try and snog me.

  DS Sunil 'Sunny' Khan : Smart move.

  DCI Cassie Stuart : [sighs and nods before standing up to leave]  Night night, Sunny.

  DS Sunil 'Sunny' Khan : Night, guv.
