The Sweeney1975

Det. Chief Insp. Frank Haskins:
I had an electronic surveillance device on test. It's disappeared. Matthews said you took it.

Det. Insp. Jack Regan:
Yeah, that's right, guv. I locked it on the bottom of Moose's Range Rover.

Det. Chief Insp. Frank Haskins:
Oh, all right. Where's the Range Rover now?

Det. Insp. Jack Regan:
Well that's the point. It's disappeared. Right here.

[Regan points at a spot on a map]

Det. Chief Insp. Frank Haskins:
With my ESD?

Det. Insp. Jack Regan:
That's right, guv.

Det. Chief Insp. Frank Haskins:
You lost my ESD? Have you any idea how much those things cost?

Det. Insp. Jack Regan:
Wait a minute. I haven't lost it, guv'nor. It lost itself. After all, it's supposed to be unlosable. That's the whole point of the machine, isn't it? Gives off these little bleeps so you can tell where it's going.

Det. Chief Insp. Frank Haskins:
It cost a fortune.

Det. Insp. Jack Regan:
Look, we were asked to evaluate it. Well, I just evaluated it. In fact, I can give you my considered verdict: it's useless. We've lost the Moose, and the dog, and the machine.
