[A Cousin]

He realises how good it feels to be needed, and how much he wants the puppy after all. He runs back, calling the dog but can't see him anywhere. Suddenly he hears a bark and the puppy comes running back to him and throw himself into his arms, licking his face and squirming with joy. And the last line of the book - "it's late, Brown, let's go home". Well, you get the picture, don't you?

OK - I'm see where this is going. Veeeeery provocative DogSoSmall. Part of the reason I love Spooks are the literary allusions they include. However, not being British, I did not know this story.

I am for it because we would be at the above mentioned portion where Harry jumps in her arms and licks her face, which I would dearly love to see!

If Ruth gets that last line somewhere in S10, I'm gonna scream so loud you will hear me in the UK!
