Blue Heelers

PJ & Maggie conversation while trapped down the mine together. Maggie: Oh no problem at all. I'll just curl up in the fetal position and try to forget that I've been buried alive shall I? PJ: Well at least you've got good company. Maggie: Oh that is so bloody typical. You can't deal with anybody else's feelings but your own so you've got to make a joke of it. PJ: What am I supposed to be dealing with here? Maggie: I can't believe I've been working with you all this time, and you still don't know the first thing about me do you? PJ: Well you've got, you've got 48 hours and a captive audience, now do you want to try me? Maggie: Relationships and police work they just don't mix. You know someone should really write that in the rule book I think. PJ: Yeah, well maybe what they should write is, you shouldn't fall in love like someone like your Dad. PJ: Who do you you know who is like your Dad? Maggie: Go to sleep. The next day (morning) Maggie: Bacon and Eggs or a full contential breakfast sir, courtesy of hotel management if you prefer I could do you a soft boiled egg PJ No I don't want anything, next time I'm down caught in a mine shaft, remind me to have something more substantial Maggie: How's your tooth PJ: Fantastic, how did you sleep? Maggie: Oh brilliantly, what do you want to talk about then? PJ: Nothing, I don't want talk about tooth, my stomach, about food Maggie: You always this grumpy first thing in the morning? PJ: Always Maggie: No wonder you never got married, no self respecting women would ever put up with you PJ: No, I never got married Maggie, cause I haven't met the right women. Maggie: Oh now whose using emotional shorthand. PJ: You serious Maggie: Yeah I am, don't you reckon its time I got some answers. PJ: I always thought love was one of those chemistry things you know? I must be getting fussy in my old age. And now I think it is, I think it's more like what my um, my father's got with my Mum, you know like beauty, intelligence, strength of character Maggie: For all of which your mother scores exceptionally high marks I take it? PJ: Yeah, out of a score of 1 to 10 she's a twenty. Maggie: That's a pretty tough act to follow. PJ: Yeah it is. There is, there is one person I know.. Who comes pretty close. Umm, I guess if I lose her, I lose for good. Maggie: And how does she feel about that? PJ: I don't know, I've often wondered. I've tried to tell her I just never found the right words. But then, then she said I was, I she told me I was too much like her Dad, and I couldn't take a chance on that. So, that's the end of that. Maggie: Ahh, maybe she never knew what a big chance you were prepared to take on her PJ: You think she understands now Quotes Come on Doyle, your not scared about the dark are you - PJ Hasham Anymore bloody silly questions Mr Dick Tracey - Hec O'Farrell He's under the thumb already, he's pathetic - Nick Schultz
