He doesn't want to think too hard about why she doesn't have a home out here right now. Because all his copper's instinct tells him, if he does think about it, that there's a lot more to the story than taking venegance for Sam. Or if there isn't yet, there will be. And he doesn't want to know. Not yet, at least.
'Soon as I step out, I jus' carry on like I'd never been there. Tha's why I have to stay in the place if I've had a scrap or somethin'. Can't take anythin' out that wasn't there when I came in, or I won' have any clue how it got there.'
And he doesn't want to start thinking he's going mental, or sleepwalking or something, in order to account for bruising. It's important to him that his world's left on an even keel, with him steady at the helm.
'What'd you think of Manchester, when you came?
....and I am not a bloody weirdo.'
