After Louise Gardiner's conversation with Chris, a shot of Ray smoking a cigarette follows. Then a shot of Alex in the International Version.
In the UK Version, Louise gets up and approaches Alex.
Louise Gardiner: "So what happens now?"
Alex: "Well, we'll need to keep you here for protection. I know it's not easy being somebody you're not. I'm sure you want to get back to somewhere famliar."
Louise Gardiner: "It's just ehm… it's just the pressure. I can't… I can't keep playing this stupid game."
Jim Keats appears.
Keats: "You wanna run, don't you? You wanna leave."
Louise Gardiner: "Yes."
Keats: "I don't blame you. The end of the road is in sight, and I'm asking you as a favour to me don't stop now. Keep going, see this through to the end, otherwise… Otherwise it's all been for nothing. And I think you're worth much more than that."
Louise Gardiner: "Thank you, sir."
Then a shot smiling Alex, followed by another one of Gene in his office. Gene also notices Louise talking to Alex and Keats. Then a shot from Gene's point of view, he keeps watching the conversation.
Keats (to Louise): "Take a seat."
Louise Gardiner: "Thanks."
Then Gene again. He takes a sip while he is watching Alex Keats.
The following scene shows Chris and Ray in Gene's office.
Gene: "Right. Tomorrow morning, bright and early, you two are gonna cast a beady eye over Daniel Stafford's house. If he moves, you tell me."
Ray nods, Chris barely moves.
Gene: "What?"
Chris: "Well, it's just that the guv asked me to come in early and look at some case files."
Gene: "Who asked you to do that?"
Chris: "Keats. Jim Keats."
Gene: "You see, because just for a second there, I thought you referred to him as the guv, but that's impossible, isn't it?"
Chris: "Yeah, er… yeah, I'm sorry. I meant… Tomorrow morning, bright and early, surveillance on Daniel Stafford."
Gene: "Because Jim Keats isn't running this operation, I am. Don't forget it."
Ray: "Yes, guv."
Ray leaves Gene's office and so does Chris.
Ray (to Chris): "Twat."

Gene: "No."
Alex: "Well, at least consider it."
Gene: "She's a decent enough cop, but she's a liability."
Alex: "Well, considering what she's been through, I ju..."
Gene: "I'm not a babysitter, Bolls."
