Angie, Danni and Oscar are sitting watching a news report on TV, relating to the Laurence Galloway murder allegation of a young fifteen-year-old schoolgirl.
Danni: All Lawyers are parasites.
Oscar: It's hard to get Galloway convicted without a body.
Danni: You don't think his innocent!
Oscar: Well, all they had was a couple of letters from an infatuated fifteen year-old kid to her English teacher.
Danni: No, no, they didn't have letters. They had a diary and the last entry said she was meeting Galloway after a school social. That was the night she was killed.
Oscar: That was the night she disappeared.
Angie: Oh, give us a break. He got off on a technicality, everybody knows he did it.
Danni: Yeah!
Oscar: Well I know at least thirteen people who aren't convinced.
Angie: Oh yeah! Who?
Oscar: Me and the retrial jury.
Angie: What choice do the jury have in it? The judge instructed they acquit him.
Oscar: They would have acquitted anyway. There was no case.
Angie: Only because the appeal hearing ruled the diary inadmissible.
Danni: Yeah! Without a body, that diary was the vital piece of evidence.
Oscar: It was the only piece of evidence and circumstantial evidence at that. If you want a conviction you need a case. No one could prove a crime was even committed. At the end of the day that's why the guy walked.
Angie: Love your confidence, Oscar. (Exits)
Oscar: At least next time they won't race to prosecute until they've got a watertight case.
Danni: That's a depressing thought.
Oscar: What? (Almost whispering)
Danni: Next time.
Later at the factory with Angie, Oscar, Church, Danni and Mac.
Danni: You're asking us to baby-sit the residents!
Oscar: Great assignment, like we haven't got anything better to do.
Mac: Low level surveillance. That's all it is. A couple of days.
Pete: We should be watching him, not them.
Mac: He has a right to expect our protection and that's what we're going to give him. Why don't you two take a stroll (referring to Danni and Oscar) See what they've got planned.
Danni: Well if they stone his house I might join in.
Pete: Yeah, flash your gun, they might turn violent.
Danni: (laughs)
Mac: It's just another job like any other, ok.
Peter: Yeah! Just like the last one.
Bill: We can't have people taking the law into their own hands, not even against scum like Galloway.
Mac: You're forgetting the judge acquitted him. His innocent until proven guilty.
Bill: Yeah and I'm Elvis.
Later at the factory after Mac's returns from her meeting with Bill Hollister.
Mac: Hi, who wants some work?
Oscar: What's the deal?
Mac: We've got to get amongst this resident group and try and flush out who took that shot at Galloway.
Oscar: Can't they post a couple of uniforms at his house!
Mac: We're working this with homicide. There's a residence meeting this afternoon. We need a concerned couple to go in and find out what they're planning.
Danni: Well if you want to send me that's fine, but personally, I think the residents are the good guys.
Mac: Angie?
Angie: Yeah, Mac, this already feels screwed up. Isn't there another way we can do it?
Mac: All right, if you feel that way, I'll go in myself. (To Oscar) And seeing as you went to Galloway's aide at the shooting, you're compromised, that means you're it (referring to Church)
Peter: I'm with Angie and Danni on this one.
Mac: Get over it.
Peter: Galloway's as guilty as hell.
Mac: Then you should fit in with the residents just fine.
Church and Mac are attending the residents meeting
Mac: How did you go with Jordan?
Pete: Well, they all say they want Galloway to leave, but what they really want is revenge. Anyone of them could have taken that shot at him.
Mac: Mmmm, Local lynch mob!
Later at the residence meeting.
Pete: There are others way's. Well there must be! There's got to be something we could do.
Simon Hall: You had something in mind! Well you did, didn't you?
Peter: Get in his face, if he leave the house, you follow him. If he gets a loaf of bread, you get a loaf of bread. If he gets on a bus, you get on a bus.
Simon Hall: What else?
Pete: Tie up his phone by constantly calling him. Make him a prisoner in his own home. You don't have to break the law, just push it a bit. Keep the pressure on. You never know he might crack and move away. The trick is don't give him a moments peace.
Simon Hall: Drive him crazy and drive him out.
Peter: Yeah, something like that.
