Bad Cop, Bad Cop

Red and Lou are called to a trashed motel room where the retired Leader of the Opposition, Francis Bowers, lies dead. Pud reveals he had been 'sticking his sausage on someone else's hotplate' and it's up to Red and Lou to explain Mr Bowers' passing in a straightforward manner, ensuring there is no fuss about the circumstances.Armed with some 'spray and wipe' and a vacuum cleaner, they soon take care of the motel room and use their most persuasive manner on the hotel manager and cleaner to ensure their story is a more appropriate version.Next step is the woman responsible for Bower's expiration, but far from denying she was in the room, Deborah Sidebottom (Sarah Chadwick) appears pleased with the way things worked out.The boys are beginning to think they might have covered their tracks, until Tracy reminds Lou about Bowers' wife, Evelyn (Angela Punch McGregor). When Pud advises against interviewing the grieving widow, Red sniffs that there's more to the case than meets the eye.
