Provides examples of:
- Disposing of a Body: McGregor leans on Anderson in Thames Division to dispose of Steve Fisher's corpse.
- Don't You Dare Pity Me!: Deakin's reaction to Tony trying to tread carefully with Deakin learns that Huxtable wanted him kept out of the loop because he was too closely linked with McGregor.
- Establishing Character Moment:McGregor uses his speech at his retirement party to moan about the end of old-fashioned, two-fisted policing and make a racist joke.
- Jurisdiction Friction: Tony butts heads with Ryman in Customs and Excise while the two teams try to investigate McGregor's activities.
- Shout-Out:
- When Harry realises that Tony wants him to scope out Thames Division without approaching any of the officers, Mo jokingly responds with "I think he's got it.".
