LINDSAY (CONT’D)
But thank you, that’s very
gracious.
Lindsay turns her gaze from Hastings to Steve.
LINDSAY (CONT’D)
DS Arnott. We’re all waiting.
STEVE:
Your allegation that I planted
incriminating evidence against you
is false.
LINDSAY:
Point of information. I’ve made two
allegations --one, you engaged in
inappropriate sexual relations
whilst on an undercover operation
and, two, you planted fifty
bribe.
STEVE:
And it’s all crap.
HASTINGS:
(Calming.)
Steve.
LINDSAY:
Really? Do tell.
STEVE:
(To Gill)
Lindsay Denton knows our procedures
inside out. She exploited doubts
and grey areas to tie our
investigation in knots.
LINDSAY:
Oh, you did that all by yourself.
First DC Fleming’s failed
undercover operation and then
yours.
KATE:
I didn’t do too badly. You ended up
in prison.
STEVE:
We didn’t fail. We got you
convicted. But you know sexual
misconduct by undercover officers
is a hot topic so you invented this
together so the jury sees you as a
wronged woman. They obviously felt
I must’ve shagged you into
conspiring to murder a protected
witness.
HASTINGS:
(Less calming, more admonishing.)
Steven.
LINDSAY:
(Doesn’t bat an eye.)
Thank you, DS Arnott. I couldn’t
agree more, that the question of
your sexual integrity quite rightly
made the jury sceptical.
Lindsay reaches into her jacket and lays a phone
on the table.
Everyone immediately gets very tense.

LINDSAY (CONT’D)
But I've got a recording that will
be of interest to you all.
Hasting’s leans in.
HASTINGS:
All right then. This just isn’t the
time or the place.
LINDSAY:
Now is exactly the time and exactly
the place. Not in court, in a room
full of rubberneckers and
reporters, my pathetic private life
laid out for everyone to laugh at,
to pity. I couldn’t bear that. But
to show you all what kind of
officer got me locked up for 585
miserable days, of that --that I
can live with.
(To Steve)
I’ve had my whole life put on trial
and now it’s your turn.
The others are spectators, not knowing what’s
going on between Lindsay and Steve but being
forced to watch.
STEVE:
You’ve been charged and tried but
the one person that refuses to
examine what you’re accused of is
you.
LINDSAY:
I’m innocent. The question is, Are
you? This phone was next to the bed
the entire time. Although I can
believe that you were too
preoccupied to notice. Would you
like me to play it for everyone?
(Off Steve’s defiant silence.)
DS Arnott?
STEVE:
(Beats)
No.
KATE:
Christ sake, Steve.
Exit Kate, thoroughly disappointed in him. Steve
looks ashamed.
