Sergeant Angel, Hi hi. Quick word for the Sandford Citizen?
Uh, it was very enjoyable.
'Cop Enjoys Watching Young Lovers'?

[Nicholas and Danny have just chased down a speeding vehicle. Nicholas confronts the driver, Martin Blower and his partner Eve Draper]
Was I going a tad fast, officer?
Well now you see, we are staging a homage to William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and we're a little late for the dress rehersal. I'm playing the eponymous hero. Romeo, not Juliet.
[he sees that Nicholas is copying down everything that he is saying on his notepad]
What are you writing?
Everything you're saying, I might need to refer to it later.
Now officer, I am a respected solicitor so there's no need to-- just stop writing now. Look, I am merely trying to explain why I might have exeeded the speed limit.

But I--
To flout speed limits specifically put in place to save lives?
Oh, now this is preposterous!
[exasperated]
Just stop WRITING!
'Stop writing.'
