Life on Mars – Gen – G
Assurance
(prompt: the car)
“Looking for these?”
Sam knocks his head painfully on the underside of the desk, straightening gingerly.
Phyllis is standing on the other side of the reception, eyebrow cocked, a set of car keys dangling from one sturdy finger.
“Oh thank God,” Sam says. “I must've dropped them somewhere. I thought you might have a spare.”
“You didn’t drop them. The Guv took the car to the shop.”
“Why?” Sam frowns. “There was nothing wrong with it.”
Phyllis shrugs. “He muttered something about loose brakes and stupid DIs getting themselves killed.” She tosses the keys to Sam. “Apparently it’s fixed now.”

See, AtoA isn't going to inspire posts like this. (Watched it after you'd gone and don't think I'll bother with next week).

Some part of me can't help think that this is just a fantasy of Gene's, in the way everyone who's ever lost someone fantasises about going back and stopping it from happening somehow.

I know what you mean. That scene in A2A with the newspaper clipping on the wall and Gene downing a drink... I may have almost cried there.
