Blind Spot

Colony 1×4

& Phyllis: People have a psychological need to find the super-villain, but in my experience, reality is a lot more complicated.
    Will: So who is Geronimo?

& Phyllis: Morality’s complicated for people in our position. I was in Iraq after the invasion, and in hindsight, we had a window of opportunity before everything turned to shit. Maybe if we’d shot the first five guys who looted the National Museum, everything would have been different.
    Will: Or maybe not.
    Phyllis: A million people died in the Iraq war, and for what? Is the life of the average person better or worse?

& Phyllis: There’s no version of an effective resistance. There’s just misguided idealism that leads to death and despair.

& Geronimo: I want you to remember the words of Frederick Douglass... If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did, and it never will. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress. The one thing they cannot take from you, my fellow Colonists... is hope.

& Bram: I know you’re good at your job, Dad, but maybe with Geronimo, you don’t have to be so good.

& Phyllis: You’re wondering if you have a choice... You don’t. You work for me now.

& Phyllis: I don’t know. Their perception of time makes that unpredictable.
