Episode #1.2 (2012)

Annabelle Apsion: Kay Mullary

Quotes 

• Kay Mullary : Do you have children?

  DC Sue Upton : A little one. Just eight.

  Kay Mullary : You know everything about them at that age, don't you? They're just an extension of you, really. Aren't they? Then, slowly, they start to pull away. Make their own lives. Become their own people. Make their own choices. Own mistakes. Which is what you want. It's what your job was, wasn't it? Roots and wings. Then it's okay, because you know that they'll come back when they're ready. So you ask about boyfriends and friends, but the truth is I didn't really know her very well in the last year or so. You know, she was out there making her own life. And she hadn't come back to us, yet. And now, she never will.
