[Music] now come in Spector O'Connor's here bring him in yeah nice cup of coffee there Billy boy you know how I like it I'll be done to the office so Spartan I want to get a few plants in here you know live in a place up a bit my old fellow now he was a great man for the plants shrubs spare me the [ __ ] Frank how do you know Benjamin Cisco a lawyer gets here anyway here the police can't be trusted nice looking lads what's it like working with a snitch Billy I'd watch my bike if I was you good lad when Frank was still a copper we used to call him the magician didn't matter what case he was working on evidence would just appear was still like a bit of magic but I'll tell you what I'm really tired it's getting lit so why don't you show me yours Anna and I'll show you mine we found Cisco and his wife and the corpse of a young man who don't know face was blown off with a shotgun what's Cisco doing in the house beautiful isn't it it certainly is perfect small actually that's slightly larger than average and after all this is only a guest bedroom right get in the bounce in the bath yes photograph ER right stretch out good boy three more views you say yeah can they pay cash I really wouldn't know I can and at the asking price think that might interest the owner I'm sure it would but he's bound to ask me whether I think a better offer might be forthcoming and well I used to own a Porsche do you like fast cars Dr Cisco what if you said no sorry what if you were to tell the owner that he wasn't likely to get a better offer why would I want to do that money Richard makes the world revolve around I'm willing to pay you a fee to explain the advantages of my offer to the seller a fee yeah successfully 100 to the asking price and if he says yes I get my house the owner gets a cash deal and well you buy your own Porsche you can't be serious why maybe many things Richard but a comedian I'm not good God no I mean this is ridiculous I could lose my job only if you tell you keep a secret what's he saying what's Cisco saying Cisco's in hospital with a heart attack his wife hasn't made a statement yet which brings me to you so how do you know Benjamin Cisco it's a long story do you like to tell stories five years ago not another word Frank inspector how nice to see you again it's great to cooperate perhaps later right now my client and I need to have a little chat I'm sure you understand boss foreign I'm so sorry I'm late this has been one of those days I've been rushed off my feet and then my dad turned over time and the Chiefs [ __ ] the circles so anyway the most important thing is that I'm here now I don't know oh what's stopping you ethics you're an estate agent not a doctor leave the ethical questions to me look why are you doing this I mean you obviously have money why not just put in a higher bid I may lose this way I'm in control one percent 0.75 and that's as far as I can truly are an astonishing man Dr Cisco deal who is he I don't recognize him in or out of the back take another look really inspector my client has already answered who is he don't answer that Frank we're leaving it's this isn't about planting evidence Frank this is murder what you want to plant this on me as well Frank no watch yourself don't keep me waiting call me all right how ironic what would happen if I walked out of here onto the road and bang hit and run leaves me for dead what would happen next to my organs are you young man reasonably good health smoking probably hasn't caused too much damage at this stage so we'd take your heart getting his liver pancreas okay God yes young healthy men like you are very valuable to us once you're dead of course Suppose there was two people who needed the same organ I mean I died what have you liked one of them more than the other very strict criteria and ultimately it's a review board that decides not me is that not frighten you I mean praying God I just said it's not me the besides all right I just recommend but the board listens to your recommendation right yes of course they do so what if um one of them was black one of the people was black that changed your recommendation just what are you implying nothing I just I would never allow personal feelings to affect my professional conduct of course not I understand that I mean what a racist thing to say I'm not a racist that's call me when the owner gets back to you bloody marvelous oh [ __ ] can I help do you realize how much my hands are worth look I behaved precious in there and you have absolutely every right to be angry but I'm really not a racist I just heard that there can be problems when you swap organs between races you know rejection issues and all of that honestly sometimes my big mouth you know look please let me make it up to you why don't you go inside and take care of those hands and I'll change the wheel if I have it finished before you can say heart transplant I promise have we got anything new from forensics the only thing that's certain of is the man in the bath is not the man in the basement but there is some good news Mrs Cisco wants to make a statement okay bill I expect your full support on this case no matter where it leads so the man in the bath is Richard short an outstanding arrest warrant from three years ago before he's a mercenary [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music]
