LUTHER by NEIL CROSS Episode 1
Page 42 .
LUTHER I’m here. Right now. Look at me. I’m here. ZOE Part of you. But never all. Because you care more about the dead than the living. That’s where your heart is. LUTHER That’s not true. ZOE All those years spent up to your neck in malignancy. All those months looking for Henry Madsen. All those months that came after. You were just - gone. And you weren’t coming back. Not my you. Not my John. LUTHER And him - ? ZOE When he’s with me, he’s with me. LUTHER Is that all it takes?
Painful beat. She doesn’t rise to it. LUTHER Do you love him? ZOE Yes. I’m sorry. LUTHER And me? ZOE
Always. But not like that. Not any more. I know it’s a cruel thing to hear - but you need to accept this, John. If you love me, you need to accept it. LUTHER I don’t know how to do that.
Before she can answer, the door breaks open - and TWO SECURITY GUARDS spill in - Luther stands, backing away, badging them. LUTHER Police! Police!
