In this episode, we see some details of Morse's bank account on a computer screen, and the account is called "E. Morse". This is long before Morse's first name, Endeavour, is at last revealed.
Morse: Wouldn't you say I was fair, Lewis?
Lewis: Fairer to women than to men, sometimes.
Morse: They are the fair sex.
Morse: I was meant to pick up the knife! It's handle was toward my hand.
McNutt: You can leave out the literary flourishes, Morse. They always were a weakness.
McNutt: Have another beer, it may help you to think.
Morse: No, thanks.
Lewis: You're in shock.
Morse: Someone, I don't know who and I don't know why, it trying to frame me.
Strange: I'm sorry, Morse, but I don't think you've been telling us the whole truth. I'm putting you under arrest.
Morse: Myself, I always work on the principle that the last person to see them alive did it. He [meaning Bottomley] thinks it's the first person to see them dead.
Bottomley: We've counted the money, it's all there.
Morse: You'll want to wash your hands, then - it's dirty stuff.
Morse: If I didn't know he was dead, I'd swear it was Hugo De Vries. It's got his fingerprints all over it.
Lewis: Like yours on that knife.
Morse: It's quite interesting, being the hunted for once, instead of the hunter. You should try it, Lewis. Gives you an insight into the criminal mind.
Hugo De Vries: (to Morse) I'm going to kill you. Or am I?
Rated PG in the UK and 12 in Ireland
When Morse says "I was meant to pick up the knife! It's handle was toward my hand", and McNutt replies "You can leave out the literary flourishes, Morse", the reference is to the dagger speech in Shakespeare's play, Macbeth:
Macbeth:
Is this a dagger which I see before me,
The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee -
I have thee not, and yet I see thee still!
Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible
To feeling as to sight, or art thou but
A dagger of the mind, a false creation,
Proceeding from the heat-oppressèd brain?
