[Godley and Abberline are in a cab heading for Bucks Row]
Godley: So what else did Old Bootface have to say?
Abberline: Detective Chief Superintendent Arnold thinks I need a rest.
Godley: Rest? I've never heard it called that before!

[Chief Superintendent Arnold is complaining to Abberline about the press reports]
Abberline: I'm not responsible for the papers!
Arnold: No, you're responsible to me! And I want this case closed, Inspector!
Abberline: Yes, and why is that, Chief Superintendent? Mary Nicholls was a shilling whore. She wasn't killed for money, she didn't have any, her neighbours don't remember any enemies, and according to the doctor, she wasn't even sexually assaulted, yet somebody tore her to pieces in the streets!
Arnold: So find him.
Abberline: Do you want the killer, or will anybody do?
