Plot:

Set somewhere around series 3 episodes 5. Alex ventures into Keats office unaccompanied and finds files on herself and team including Sam and Annie Tyler, but most importantly she finds Keats diary where she discovers the shocking truth about this world and everyone around her.

"Right now bugger of back to Manchester". Said gene in a good natured voice to DCI Litton.

Just then Keats strolls through the double doors of CID with two uniformed officers and holding a piece of paper looking like the cat who got the cream.

"DCI Litton" begins Keats in a smug voice. "You're under arrest. You will be escorted back to Manchester where you face a disciplinary trial. And possibly criminal charges"

"Um excuse me." Says gene looking possibly livid. "What the hell for?"

"For failing to prevent criminal activities penetrated by his own officer." States a smug Keats.

"He's got 25 years service. I mean he's a prat. But an innocent prat."Relies Gene

"You better hope the judge agrees with you." says Keats in a voice witch sujest he will do everything in his power to prevent that from happening. "Personally I wouldn't be so sure"

And with that Litton is escorted out of CID and back to Manchester.

Gene looks livid. After glaring at Keats he storms into his office and pours himself a large whiskey.

Alex also looks at Keats with hatred in her eyes.

"Do we need to talk?" asks Keats

Alex gazes at gene through his glass office window and makes a decision. Whatever happed to Sam will be discovered when the time is right. Keats will only make things worse and drive the wedge further between herself and Gene.

"No we bloody well don't!" replies Alex looking at Keats furiously "You porously got Litton arrested because you know it would get at Gene. And now you try to drive a wedge between us. well sir I don't bloody well care what happened to Sam because I believe Gene didn't kill him. And by all means find out for yourself but don't involve me any further. You were sent her to find out if gene porously shot me. Well Keats he didn't. So you can write your bloody report and get the hell out. OK?" Says a fuming Alex

Before Jim has a chance to reply gene comes out of his office and heads towards them. he looks astonished at what Alex had said. What everyone had been thinking since he arrived but no one had said. He has thought Alex was on Keats side. It had now become apparent that she was firmly where she belonged.

"Well Jimbo. You heard the lady. Now I sujest you finish that report and get the hell out of my station capish!"

Keats looks positively defeated and with that he shoots a death glare at Gene and Alex and heads for his office.

" How could this fail?" thinks Jim to himself. "I was so sure I had her completonaly believing all that crap about Tyler. She must really love hunt to give up on her investigation and trust him. Mabie that's how I get to her. Use her love for gene agents them both. But how?" Suddenly it clicks. He grabs a pen and scribbles something down in a leather bound book he then reattaches the lock and places it inside his desk. He means to lock that two but is two exited by his theory than to do anything except walk briskly back to D&C to plan his evil scheme further.

Shaz meanwhile had been outside Keats office the whole time and had heard everything. Alex really was right she made a better detective than ray and Chris put together.
