** And then immediately after:

{{quote| '''Lynley''': You are not meant to know this. Weberly wanted to have you sacked. I had to ''persuade'' him to let you stay. Which is why I wasn't going to let you throw it all away. ''[hands her her resignation letter]''}}

** This is capped off by the final moments of the episode, with the two of them [[It Makes Sense in Context|standing next to a bonfire]]. After they've finished burning what they came there to burn, he turns to go - and she stills him by placing a hand on his chest, then throws her resignation letter into the fire.

She's terrified out of her skin, but largely keeps in control until she is rescued - at which point she whales the tar out of the {{spoiler|hostage-taker}} until Lynley pulls her off, then bursts into tears and [[Cry Into Chest|cries herself out against Lynley's chest]] as he [[Cooldown Hug|holds her]].

* "Word of God": Lynley shows up at Barbara's flat in the middle of the night. Heartfelt and emotional baring of souls ensues, concluding with the mutual admission that they are each other's reason to get up in the morning.
