Harry tries to bring everything to light, make Silvester tell the truth, whereas Mace is all for hiding it. Perhaps both options were equally good, but it was interesting to see their differing motives.

Agreed. I thought the main storyline about Alfie was crap, but the subplot with Harry, Silvester and Mace was really good. Loved the way Harry forced the guy to look at the pictures of the dead girl and write his resignation. That's the thing about Harry - he's willing to do morally questionable things in his job, but I get the impression he never lies to himself about these things and face the fact that he does these things head-on.
