GILL:
Ms Denton, I’m Gill Biggeloe, Legal
Counsel to AC-12.
LINDSAY:
I imagine they keep you very busy.
GILL:
(Beat. Unsure how to react)
Have a seat. You know
Superintendent Hastings.
LINDSAY:
I do.
Lindsay calmly takes her seat facing Hastings.
Gill sits tensely in her “conciliatory”
position. Hastings bears the look of a man about
to undergo root-canal work.
GILL:
As part of a new initiative
christened Truth and
Reconciliation, following a
miscarriage of justice parties are
invited to engage in dialogue to
initiate the healing process.
LINDSAY:
There seems to be an oversight.
Some of the officers involved in my
wrongful conviction are missing.
GILL:
Superintendent Hastings, as Senior
Investigating Officer, represents
the whole team.
LINDSAY:
Well. I want them here. Or this new
box you need to tick just... won’t
get ticked.
Lindsay regards Gill and Hastings coolly. Gill
looks embarrassed. Hastings snaps and stands.
HASTINGS:
God, give me strength.

CUT TO:
INT. AC-12. MEETING ROOM. MOMENTS LATER.
Steve and Kate troop in behind Hastings. They
sit tensely facing Lindsay, with Gill still off
to the side.
LINDSAY:
Thank you. It wouldn’t have been
the same without you.
Steve and Kate look daggers at Lindsay, in
response to this first “victory” by her.
GILL:
Ms Denton, on behalf of this
department and this constabulary, I
offer you a sincere and
unconditional apology for your
wrongful conviction in respect of
the offence of conspiracy to
murder.
Gill looks to Hastings.
He hesitates.
GILL (CONT’D)
Ted.
HASTINGS:
(Through gritted teeth)
As the senior investigating
officer, I acknowledge your
feelings regarding your conviction.
LINDSAY:
Wrongful conviction. And you
haven’t actually said sorry.
Hastings looks like he needs to go somewhere and
puke.
Lindsay turns her gaze full on Steve.
LINDSAY (CONT’D)
Maybe you’ll do better, DS Arnott.
Lindsay’s continued glare at Steve doesn’t
result in an apology from him. After a long
beat.
LINDSAY (CONT’D)
You require me to sign off that I
accept your apology. I won’t unless
it comes from the officers who
wronged me.
KATE:
You’re out. What more do you want?
LINDSAY:
An. Apology.
KATE:
Jesus Christ.
LINDSAY:
(To Gill)
This isn’t going very well at all
is it?
Excruciatingly tense beats.
GILL:
Ted.
HASTINGS:
As Senior Investigating Officer, I
apologise for your conviction.
LINDSAY:
You omitted “wrongful”.
Kate gazes at her with disgust.
