1 | * Sam and Gene's synchronized desk-leaping from the pilot. |
2 | * Gene's introduction: |
3 | -->'''Sam''': All right, surprise me. What year is it? |
4 | -->'''Gene''': A word in your shell-like, pal. ''(slams Sam up against a filing cabinet)'' |
5 | -->'''Sam''': Big mistake. ''(shoves Gene away)'' |
6 | -->'''Gene''': Yeah? ''(sucker-punches Sam in the stomach)'' They reckon you've got concussion. Well, I couldn't give a tart's furry cup if half your brains are falling out. Don't ''ever'' waltz into my kingdom acting king of the jungle. |
7 | -->'''Sam''': Who the hell are you? |
8 | -->'''Gene''': Gene Hunt, your DCI. It's 1973, almost dinner time. I'm 'aving 'oops. |
9 | * After being threatened and nearly murdered for what he saw, Leonard, the key witness to an armed robbery, gets "witness protection" in the shape of a row of spotlights shining in the face of the identity parade. |
10 | -->"You don't have to say anything, just point and..."\ |
11 | ''[Leonard steps past the lights and up to Trent's face - and points.]'' |
12 | * Sam to Gene in 2.05: "I can just about handle you, driving like a pissed up crackhead and treating women like beanbags. But I'm going to say this once, and once only, Gene. Stay out of ''WesternAnimation/CamberwickGreen!''" |
13 | * In 1x06, during the hostage situation, Gene is shot three times, point blank. The thing is? He's got ''three flasks'' in his jacket. |
14 | * How, at the end of episode 2.01, Sam gets Tony Crane sent to an asylum, therefore preventing a future murder AND keeping his cover. AWESOME. |
15 | * Annie Cartwright's entire performance as "Cherie Blair" in episode 2.04. |
16 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5fr1b24yII Don't move! You're surrounded by armed bastards!]]" |
17 | * Chris Skelton saved the day in 2.06, showing up in the nick of time to resolve the hostage situation by shooting the hostage taker. |
18 | * Sam's suicide/epiphany, set to Music/DavidBowie's [[TitleDrop "Life]] [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic on Mars"]], was beautiful. |
19 | * Sam confronts the woman who led him into a HoneyTrap on the orders of a local gangster he was getting too close to, and when she makes the mistake of getting a bit snide about it he verbally demolishes her in response. |
20 | -->'''Sam:''' You're a loser, Joni... or whatever your name is. Because you live in fear. And that's not really living at all, is it? Now, I don't live in fear. I'm alive. |
