The Bill: Episode 21
Tóm tắt
Quinnan returns to work after his stabbing. Questions are raised about his capabilities, and when he manhandles a suspect, Stamp thinks he's losing it. However he goes from overboard to lax when he attends a death notice, opting against returning to duty by talking to the man whose wife has been killed. Realising the man is a former soldier who is being bullied by his upstairs neighbour, Quinnan bottles a noise complaint call, and the neighbour is later found beaten and sprayed with CS gas. Hollis clashes with Garfield over his handling of Quinnan's attack, and out of spite, Hollis mentions Quinnan disappearing on shift to Brownlow. As the relief try to track Quinnan down, he shows up at Sun Hill, and while they try to clear his name with the assault victim, Boyden gives Quinnan a chance to prove himself to the relief once and for all.
