Ice Cream, You Scream, We All Scream

Mr. Mercedes 1x9

Pete: This... is where, if I didn't care about my pension, I'd tell you... to go fuck yourself.

Holly: What? We all so happily believe that God is watching over us, yet the idea that the almighty might be so almighty that it could inhabit an inanimate object? That's just beyond the scope of our imagination? That's bullshit. Or, I mean, if you prefer the Irish translation... it's "fooked."
Bill: ... You can keep the bulldog.

Brady: You get the kids, you get the parents. Same as selling ice cream.

Robi: Am I in danger?
Bill: Only of being a dick.

Bill: What can you tell me about him, uh, Brady?
Lou: Uhh, well, for starters, he's maybe the sweetest person on planet Earth...

---

Lou: What? A homicide? Brady Hartsfield? .... Look, dude, I don't know where you're going with this, but, uh, I can tell you, you got the wrong ice cream man.

Ida: My God. You think you have a sense of people...
Bill: Right under my fucking nose.

Bill: Underneath their skin and bones, some people, rare people, thank God, just have black holes. They're born that way, but there's no getting at it. No changing its mind. The black hole rules until the host is dead.

Holly: Mike Sturdivant could have chosen not to bother me, and his life would have been exactly the same. But he did bother me, and my life wasn't ever the same again...

Brady: Somebody will write a book about me one day. Psychologists will profile me. Perhaps one of those horrormeisters will write a novel. Tonight's chapter could be called... "Things that go bang in the night."

Crews: Studies show 80% of all lottery winners regret ever having won it.
Tidwell: You just made that up.
Crews: No. It’s the truth.
Tidwell: Then the truth is stupid.
Crews: Could the truth be stupid?

Tidwell: The heart wants what the heart wants.

Dani: You’re climbing his fence to do it?
Crews: Yeah. I was first in my fence climbing class at Pelican Bay. Failed out of tunneling, though. You ever try to dig with a spoon? Tough stuff.

---

Crews: I do that, too... Tell a total stranger the absolute truth. It helps sometimes.

Tidwell: ...you don’t want to talk to me about it, which is okay because, I mean, I look at myself sometimes in the mirror, and I say, if I wasn’t me, I wouldn’t want to talk to me either, you know.

Tidwell: Come on, I’ll make it easy on you. I’ll concede to your list of demands.
Dani: How could you possibly know what my demands are?
Tidwell: Oh, it’s easy. To go to dinner with me... public place, well lit, someplace no one you know will see you with me, no bar, no sex talk, no use of the word «sex.» Am I close? I’m close, right?

Rat King

Grimm 5×5

«Rats! They fought the dogs,
and killed the cats...»
Robert Browning, «Pied Piper of Hamelin»

Wu: Somebody’s gone to a lot of trouble... the other trouble... to make Lauren Cole seem real.

Hank: How do you want to deal with this?
Nick: I’ll see if I can piss someone off.
Hank: Sounds like a plan.

Monroe: A rat king? Come on, that’s not real.
Nick: Why not?
Monroe: Are you kidding me? A 20-foot-tall Ratzilla that can’t be stopped? I mean, where’s a thing like that gonna hide? Somebody would have seen one somewhere.

---

Rosalee: There might be something in one of your books.
Monroe: I’m sure there is, but I’m telling you, it’s just an old rat’s tale.

Monroe: «.... As these cells cannot differentiate which body is the original vector, they merge into each other, causing the individual to become part of the greater whole.»
Nick: Anyone understand that?
Rosalee: I think it means the whole is worse than the sum of its parts.
Hank: I don’t like rats. I don’t care what size they are.

Christi: Occultatum Libera!
Meisner: You know, I’m getting a little sick of hearing that.

Дэн Дж. Марлоу, Имя игры — смерть

Стивен Кинг, Парень из Колорадо:

С восхищением — Дэну Дж. Марлоу, автору романа «Имя игры: Смерть». Самый крутой из всех крутых детективов.

  “Я видел с заднего сиденья «олдсмобиля», как руки водителя в белых перчатках повернули руль, и машина выехала с Ван-Бюрен на Центральную авеню. ...

&  Сплетни имеют другое свойство — они расходятся, как круги по воде.

&  — Жизнь, парень, это огромная машина. Она пережевывает тебя и выплевывает. Никогда не забывай этого.

  ... И тогда мне понадобится револьвер. Вот что мне надо — револьвер. А уж с ним я сумею отомстить за себя — и за Банни. Обязательно сумею.”

Beverly: It doesn't matter if the devil himself rises up from hell and starts killing people around here as long as no one sees him do it. The world isn't "tell me," it's "show me." People aren't scared because they haven't seen the goddamn clowns.

Winter: ...things are about to get really real.

Winter: This isn't knitting a pink pussy hat and marching with a clever sign. This is radical action.
Ivy: Radicals are the only people who've ever gotten anything done. I'm ready.

Ivy: I hate this country. What it's become. I hate my fucking wife for letting it happen. The only thing I love right now is my son, and I will do whatever it takes to make the world a better place for him, even if it means burning it all down.

Harrison: Wouldn't it be better if we said "Hail Satan" in English? So that people understand.
Kai: Not that I ever feel the need to explain myself, but it's about spreading terror. Latin is inherently scary.

---

Kai: Ave Satanas, motherfucker.

Beverly: You wanted to make the news. Stop being a bitch.

Meadow: It's a cult, Ally. It's a sick cult, and everyone's in it...

Kai: The world record for nails in the head before death is 13... We'll take turns.

Beverly: Where's your mother and father? On a Mormon mission to Mars, or did you kill them, too?... There it is.
Kai: What?
Beverly: The man behind the mask. The boy behind the man. What happened to them?
Kai: I don't talk about it.

Ofelia: Sure you're gonna be okay down here?
Alicia: Sure you're gonna be okay up there?

Alicia: It's okay. It's gonna be okay.

Christine: Even when you're hopeless, hope is all you have.

Alicia: You were right.
Christine: Were we? I'm not sure. We spent our last years hiding from the world... when we could've been out there exploring it.

---

Christine: Promise me... you'll never make decisions based on fear.

Christine: Ripping my bra off at Woodstock.
Alicia: Pink's with Dad after school.
Christine: Bridge jumping in Montana.
Alicia: "This Land is Your Land" at Camp Big Cove...

Alicia: I can't remember a single word. And I'm standing there staring out at the audience... when I see Nick's face, looking at me in horror like he's living it with me or something. So, he runs up on stage... but then he forgets everything, too. So, he just starts blasting,
        ♪ This land is your land, this land is your land ♪
        ♪ This land is your land... ♪
over and over. Like, after, like, the 20th time, he... he takes this giant bow and everyone applauds. It was a standing ovation.

Alicia: I need to find a way to live for myself. And I can't do that running in fear.

Alex: It's a rock-paper-scissors robot I just built.
Phil: What?!
Alex: Its sensors anticipate your next move.
Phil: Maybe for civilians...

Jay: Gun to my head, my top three: Cheddar, Swiss, Gouda.
Gloria: As someone who has actually had a gun to her head, cheese is not what they're going to ask about.

Jay: We dropped you off at college two hours ago. My God, even Haley lasted longer.
Manny: I needed my white noise machine.
Gloria: Or did you need your brown noise machine?

Lucifer 3×1

Lucifer: Detective Decker.... I'm afraid I don't know her badge number. But I'd say with certainty she's a 34-B, if that helps.

Lucifer: Hot as hell out here, isn't it? Well, close, anyway.

Lucifer: Well, I wasn't sure what you fancied, so I ordered a little of everything.

Linda: I-I-I didn't know that they could grow back. Are wings like... body hair?

Lucifer: I'm fairly certain that my Father's behind it.
Chloe: Your father kidnapped you?
Lucifer: Well, no, not Him personally. God never gets His own hands dirty, does He?
Chloe: Uh-huh.

Amenadiel: No, Luci. I meant Mom.
Lucifer: Ah. Well, didn't you get my text?
Amenadiel: What? You mean the string of nonsensical emojis? Fire, sword, doughnut, spaceman, clock, dancing lady, flashlight, thumbs up. How am I supposed to know what that means?
Lucifer: I ignited the flaming sword, used it to cut a hole in space and time, Mum's light flooded through it, then it closed up behind her. All good!

Ella: Anyway, any bro of Lucifer's is a bro of mine.

Chloe: What are you doing?
Lucifer: Consulting.
Chloe: Then consult less.

Josh: I just assumed he was... busy planning payback. It's why I thought you weren't real cops. I mean, a guy named Lucifer and the chick from Hot Tub Hotel?
Lucifer: High School. Hot Tub High School. She wasn't in the sequel.

---

Ella: Oh, man. I searched the IP address, like, a zillion times and it keeps pinging to some random Russian server.

Lucifer: He's angry that I gave Mum her own universe. I mean, nothing pisses God off more than exercising free will.

Chloe: Lucifer, whatever it is that you want to show me or that you want to tell me, it's okay. I'm here for you.
Lucifer: Okay. Then, once and for all, I'd like to show you who I really am.

Lucifer: No, Detective! I... I... really am the Devil.

Ella: You a believer?... Well, then, whatever it is you're going through, I'm sure it's all part of His plan. I mean, even the most pathetic, sad sack, powerless of creatures serve a purpose.

Ella: That's the thing. You never know when your rock-bottom pain and humiliation can end up helping others. I mean, God works in mysterious ways. So you just got to believe that when He crushes your nuts, He does it for a reason.

Amenadiel: But you... you cut them off.
Lucifer: I did, but the pesky things seem to be a bit more tenacious this time around.

Lucifer: ...he didn't just give my wings back, he took my Devil face as well.
Amenadiel: Luci, do you realize what this means?

Amenadiel: Perhaps Father is trying to show you that, that you've been forgiven.
Lucifer: What if I don't want His forgiveness?!
Amenadiel: But, Brother, if you can be redeemed, that means that anyone can. Now, isn't that divine?

Lucifer: ...the more I think about it, the more I think... maybe this isn't our Father who art in Heaven at all... But something much, much darker.

About a Girl

The Orville 1×3

Ed: A female baby born to a member of an all-male species...
Gordon: Yeah. Bortus, this kid is one in a million.
Isaac: In fact, a Moclan female is born roughly once every 75 years.
Ed: Well, here’s to the only girl in town.

Dr. Finn: What procedure?
Bortus: To conform our child. To make her a male.

Dr. Finn: Bortus, this is not an illness. Your child was born female. I got news for you. It happens all the time.
Bortus: My world is different than yours. I would hope that you would respect that.

Ed: You want to perform a transgender operation on a baby? ... Why not just let the kid decide for herself when she’s old enough?

Kelly: Well, couldn’t save a marriage, but we just saved a planet.

Ed: Let’s say you and I had a baby...
Kelly: On purpose?

Bortus: Of course! Without Rudolph’s nose, Santa would not have been able to complete his voyage... Christmas would have been ruined if Rudolph had been euthanized at birth, as his father wished.... What was clearly a deformity became a supreme advantage. One can never know...

---

Klyden: I would have been an outcast! Do not pretend otherwise.
Bortus: Or perhaps you would have achieved glory for guiding Santa Claus on Christmas Eve.
Klyden: What?!

Captain Vorak: You are very fragile, Captain Mercer. Are you aware of this?
Ed: There’s an antibullying law named after me. Yes, I’m aware of it.

Bortus: «Between soul and sacrifice beats the heart of civilization.»
Ed: What’s that from?
Bortus: It is from a novel by Gondus Elden, a Moclan writer of great esteem... It is customary to respond with a fitting passage from the literature of one’s own planet.
Ed: ...
Kelly: «I’m a survivor... I’m not gon’ give up. I’m not gon’ stop. I’m-a work harder.»
Bortus: Those are words of great power. Who wrote them?
Ed: I think it was actually about 15 different people.
Bortus: They must be very wise, these 15 people...

Kelly: Advocate Kagus, why is it so bad to be born female?
Kagus: It is a serious birth defect, which severely limits the ability to function: biologically, intellectually and socially.

Heveena: «The blackest abyss is a pock in the flesh when one has gazed in solitude upon the infinity of self...»
Kagus: You dare to bastardize the words of Gondus Elden to serve your own purposes?! If he were here, he would spit on you for that!
Heveena: Would he? Why don’t you ask him?..

Did You Feel That?

Life 2x6

Zen Coach: Chasing after the world brings only chaos. Allowing it to come to be, brings only peace. Retreat from the world, and it shall pursue you. To exist, to allow the world to exist, all things at once, all things as one, this is the path to serenity, to balance. See yourself as part of the world—

Crews: I’m thinking that when I woke up today, I wasn’t thinking that I’d have to kill somebody.
Dani: Now you think you have to?
Crews: No. Now I think I want to.
Capt. Tidwell: Okay, see, as your commanding officer, I hear something like that, I have to take your weapon. So it’s a good thing I didn’t hear that.

Dani: When did Tins get so smart?
Crews: Prison gives you a lot of time for self improvement...

Zen Coach: The greatest mistake is to be continually fearful of making one...

Zen Coach: The Buddha was asked if he ever made mistakes... He answered, I am making a mistake... even now. Nothing more.

Ted: Don’t say it’s the pencil talking because it’s not the pencil talking. It’s me talking.

Gordon: Yes, exactly. This is what I was getting so excited about.
Joe: We could have entertainment, news...
Gordon: Sports.
Joe: ...sports, uh... stock market. And, yeah, sure, we would deliver people to other sites, but they always come back to us.

Joe: I think "re-launch" would be better.

Kai: That's the first thing you have to understand... Nowhere is a great place to be. That means the shackles have fallen off your shoulders. You're free. You can be anything, take any path, do whatever you want.

Kai: Harrison... I'm just a mirror. Anything you see in me is in you. I am you. And if I say you're great, then you're great.

Kai: You have to live your life the way it was meant to be. To live is to suffer, and to suffer is to find some meaning in that suffering.

Kai: ...pain can be a motivator. Pain is a call to action. Pain is essential, just like anger is. Take pain in one hand and anger in the other. Use them.

Meadow: Just when I think my life can't get any worse...

Beverly: Aren't you more curious about why I was doing it?
Kai: The specifics don't matter. I know why. The world is set up to humiliate us. And someone like you, a black woman? You have it the worst. On the one side, you have people saying, "Diversity hire, affirmative action. She doesn't deserve that." And then on the other side, they say, "Well, she's just as good as we are. She just got a raw deal." But then they don't do shit to square it.

Beverly: I'm fine with a rigged game.
Kai: Knowing the game is rigged isn't worth shit if you're still willing to sit at the table and play with those bastards.

Kai: Slashing tires? You should be pulling out a knife and slashing their fucking throats.

Kai: The world has become tiny, which means the fear in a small town in Michigan can infect the country, the world in a few days.

Kai: Now, fear, fear isn't like a virus. When fear finds more hosts, it gets stronger, scarier.

Kai: Great men and women have been weaponizing fear forever, but what all those men had... was a great messenger. Someone with a pulpit and a microphone. Someone to give that fear a name. Believe me, Beverly Hope. If you get the world scared enough, they will set the world on fire for us.

Kai: City council is just the beginning. Then it's state senate, then Congress. Followers in the millions, tens of millions. And then, as we have seen... anything is possible.

Beverly: Why me?
Kai: Because I've watched you. And you have it. Rage.

Kai: Tell me what that feels like.
Beverly: It's not like anger. Everyone feels that. It feels like wanting to be the last person on Earth because, that way, you got to watch every other son of a bitch die before you.

Beverly: Equal power?
Kai: Equal power.

Ivy: It's historic. The first two presidents our son will remember are black and female. Don't you want to be a part of that?
Ally: Yes, I do, but it's just... she acts as if it's owed to her. What does she even believe? Then I see someone like Jill Stein, pushing for green energy, labeling GMOs, against the DAPL...
Ivy: Don't be one of those people. Remember what happened with Nader in 2000.
Ally: Honey, I swear to you, if I thought Trump had a chance in hell of winning, I wouldn't even consider it. He's a reality-TV star, for God's sake, honey! It's never gonna happen.

Ivy: You're young. Endless possibilities. So, um, what do you want to do with your life?
Winter: Easy. I'm gonna be Huma Abedin. Behind the scenes, right next to a powerful person, pushing them to greatness.

Mr. Mercedes 1x8

Brady: Hello? Earth to Detective Hodges.

Holly: I'm 31 1/2 years old. I can make decisions!

Bill: I was a cop for 35 years, I know all about protocol, and there's a time to dump it in the shitter. This is one of those times.

Lou: Is she okay?
Brady: Yeah. It was just, uh, angina or gas... Maybe both.

Ida: How are you?
Bill: What're you gonna do, right?
Ida: What is that, the Everything's Fucking Pointless Motto of the Irish Male?! "You've got cancer, Mr. Hodges." "Well, what are you gonna do, right?" "Your family burned up in a fire, Mr. Hodges." "What are you gonna do, right?.." I asked how you are!

Bill: You don't want to stick around?
Ida: I've been confused with a saint, but never a martyr.

Паоло Бачигалупи — Заводная (3/5)

<< Ранее

&  Хок Сен ... срывается с места и бежит так быстро, как только позволяют старческие ноги, кляня себя последними словами за то, что был дураком, не держал нос по ветру, разрешил себе не просто выживать, а желать большего.
     Всякий раз, когда он строит планы на будущее, что-то идет не так. Стоит чуть распрямить спину, как мир тут же наваливается всем своим весом и прижимает к земле.

&  Он пожимает плечами: — Что сделано, то сделано. Ничего уже не изменишь. Так зачем переживать? Май пен рай. Выбрось из головы.

&  Это игра. Тайцы всегда идут ва-банк. Значит, и мы так должны.

&  Немного погорячиться — так по-китайски. Позволяют себе эмоции, как тайцы никогда бы не посмели.

---

&  — Люди тебе верны, только если показываешь им пример.

&  Символ министерства природы — глаз черепахи, который означает прозорливость, понимание того, что быстро и дешево не бывает и что у всего есть скрытая цена.

&  Худшее в любой работе — разоблачение, когда внезапно обнаруживаешь, что всем вокруг известно о тебе слишком многое.

&  Ничто не вечно. ... Все непостоянно — вот главное в учении Будды. Карьера, работа, жена, дерево — все может исчезнуть, все может стать иным. Изменение — единственная истина.

The Orville 1×2

Ed: That is, uh, Kermit the Frog.
Bortus: I do not recognize the species.
Ed: It’s an amphibious life-form from Earth. Bortus: Is it someone you know? No, no, he’s just a leader I admire. Always keeps his cool in a crisis, inspires greatness in his people. He’s...

Bortus: Sir, I wish to request a leave of absence.
Ed: For what reason?
Bortus: I have laid an egg.

Ed: And you sit on it? You sit on the egg?
Bortus: Yes, sir.
Ed: Wow. Well, listen, tell Klyden congrats, and, uh, if you got one more in you, dibs on the omelet.
Bortus: Sir?
Ed: Sorry. Bad joke.
Bortus: Yes.

Lamarr: Well, where does it come out of? The butt?
Ed: You know, John, I didn’t really pry into those kinds of specifics.
Lamarr: How’s that not the first thing you ask?

Mrs. Mercer: You know, uh, Eddie tells us you’re just a wonderful first officer. I’m-I’m glad you two are friends again, after the, um, infidelity.
Kelly: O-Okay. Yeah. No, no, we’re... we’re fine.
Mrs. Mercer: Was it worth it?

Ed: It wasn’t that bad.
Kelly: Be honest.
Ed: She once called you a bitch 46 times in one sitting.

Ed: I say this with all due respect... you are high.
Kelly: Well, since we are seeing your mother, that’s not a bad idea.
Ed: What are you doing?
Kelly: One cannabis edible.

Gordon: Think they’d give me three weeks off to sit on an egg?

Dr. Finn: Command is all about the balance between inspiring confidence in your leadership and knowing when to trust your people.

Dr. Finn: Now, the question is, did you learn from this error?

Alara: Will you help me?
Dr. Finn: I’m not gonna whisper the right answers in your ear, but I’ll try to be your Obi-Wan however I can.
Alara: My what?
Dr. Finn: Never mind.

Alara: Kaylon is comparable to the Calivon themselves, which means they should be willing to talk to us as long as he’s with us.
Lamarr: White dude can go to Compton long as the black guy says it’s cool.
Alara: I have no idea what that means, but yes.

Alara: Oh, Claire, I have bad news.
Dr. Finn: What’s wrong?
Alara: You’re the ranking officer, which means you have command. Enjoy.

Not for Nothing

Life 2x4

Ted: That was your partner. She says there’s a dead guy. She wants to know if you’d like to, uh, catch who killed him.

Crews: Oh, yeah. Kind of freaky-deeky.

Dani: «Freakin’ gooey head?»
Crews: He was just asking if I was okay. And I am. It’s a crime scene.
Dani: And we are detectives.
Crews: Then let us detect.

Capt. Tidwell: Wife number?
Henry: One... and only. I just want her back.
Capt. Tidwell: I got this, guys.... Yeah, the first one’s the toughest. That’s the one that usually leaves you. Let me show you something... Mia. Carly. Jasmine. Number three usually has a name like that. Amber, Jasmine, Jade. You’ll see.

Capt. Tidwell: First wives are like chicken pox. You gotta go through ’em when you’re young. If you wait till you’re older, you wind up sterile.

Crews: A guy who knows computers and prisons. What are the odds?
Dani: Oh, that fella that lives in your garage.
Crews: Ted is on parole and he lives in a room above the garage. And if he comes down here, don’t bring that stuff up. He’s very sensitive about it.

Henry: She was the best thing that ever happened to me!
Capt. Tidwell: No, she wasn’t. She was the first.

Capt. Tidwell: No bullets. I don’t leave loaded guns lying around.
Davis: Then why did we—
Capt. Tidwell: Because sometimes a guy’s just gotta talk.

Prof. Halliday: They couldn’t walk out because they accepted the idea they were supposed to be in here. I never locked anything. You don’t need locks for a prison. Just prisoners.

Bobby: Look, detectives. I’m no detective, but I gotta ask... Who exactly is the killer?

Crews: The first three years will be the hardest. But just because you’re in there, you don’t have to be there. You can go somewhere else.

Паоло Бачигалупи — Заводная (2/5)

<< Начало

&  Вот в чем штука: стоит положить деньги в банк, как в мгновение тигриного ока оказываешься в ловушке. То, что было твоим — уже их. Полученное в обмен на труды, литры пота и годы жизни теперь принадлежит совершенно чужим людям...
     Если перевести все в годы — те, что сперва меняешь на зарплату, а потом сдаешь на хранение, — то банк, выходит, владеет половиной тебя. Или как минимум третью, если ты какой-нибудь ленивый таец. А человек, лишенный трети своей жизни, на самом деле лишен жизни полностью.
     Тогда какую треть отдать — от груди до макушки лысеющего черепа? От пояса до пожелтевших ногтей на ногах? Две ноги и одну руку? Две руки и голову? Отними у человека четверть тела — еще есть шанс выжить, но треть — это уже слишком.
     Вот в чем штука с этими банками. Едва засунешь деньги им в пасть, как тут же обнаруживаешь, что вокруг твоей головы сжались тигриные челюсти. Треть тебя там оказалась, половина или один только покрытый старческими пятнами череп — разницы нет.
     Но если нельзя доверять банкам, то чему можно? Хлипкому дверному замку? Осторожно выпотрошенному матрасу? Месту под выдранной с крыши черепицей, проложенному листьями банановой пальмы? Нише, вырезанной в бамбуковой балке в лачуге среди трущоб, ловко выдолбленной полости под пухлые рулетики банкнот?

---

&  Всё зыбко — вот первый урок. ... Всё зыбко, ничто не безопасно.

&  У любого хранилища свои недостатки: банкам нельзя верить, тайники не защитишь, а комнату в трущобах могут ограбить, пока тебя нет дома.

&  Все преходяще — так говорит Будда. В молодости Хок Сену были безразличны и карма, и дхарма, но с возрастом он стал понимать религию своей бабки и горькую правду этой веры. Его удел — страдания, а привязанности — их источник. И все равно он не может заставить себя не копить, не готовиться к будущему и не беречь отчаянно свою жизнь, которая пошла совсем не так.

&  Сожалеть — тоже значит страдать.

Franchise Prequel

South Park 21×4

Jimmy: My name is Jimmy Valmer. And I am very f-f-fast.

Jimmy: And now I look for others like me to fight crime as part of a superhero team. I am... Fa-Fa-Fastpass.

Eric: Fastpass, welcome to Coon and Friends. You are about to make a shit load of money.

Toolshed: Whoa, whoa. Wait. How come we gotta start off with a Netflix series? Can't we just go right into movies?
Eric: Netflix is starving for new shows right now, Toolshed. They will literally buy anything people pitch them. We need to strike while the iron is hot.

Eric: Later, in phase three, we can finally get to Civil War, where we will all...

Craig: Somebody is messing with our Facebook page. They're spreading all these lies and saying we like, burn the American flag and pee in each other's mouths.
Toolshed: Spreading lies how?
Craig: Take a look. Someone is systematically targeting our Facebook followers and feeding them misinformation.
Eric: Who would deliberately use Facebook in such a horribly reckless way?

Kyle: Butters, you can't just make stuff up about us. People are thinking it's true.
Butters: Look, fellas, you have a right to be on Facebook, and I have a right to be on Facebook. And sometimes, that's going to cause a little... chaos.

Randy: You know what I say we do? Let's invite Mark Zuckerberg to come and talk to us all about our concerns in this community.

Butters: You see, what we do here is utilize Facebook not only to spread chaos but to actually profit from it.

Butters: You see, what I've done, Adam, is built a completely self-sustaining chaos machine... Doing nothing more than what Facebook was designed to do. I make money from Facebook for my fake content in order to pay Facebook to promote my fake stories. And thusly, we're growing bigger every day.

Butters: You can take this workstation, Adam. Just start writing horrible things about people and presenting it as reality on Facebook. All right! Don't forget we have a chaos quota, gang! Let's really fuck shit up.

Eric: Wilson Aubrey? It's us, your heroes, Coon and Friends. We're, uh... just wondering why you stopped following us on Instagram.
Wilson: Because you victimize innocent people and poop in little girls' mouths.
Eric: That's not true, Wilson. We're Coon and Friends, not Harvey Weinstein.
Wilson: Facebook says it's true.
Eric: But it's not true.
Wilson: But Facebook says it's true.

Jimmy: Who cares what everyone else thinks? I joined this franchise because I believe that it can make a lot of money. And being a superhero means you keep believing in that money no matter how hard things get.

---

Mark Zuckerberg: I am the founder and chairman of FACEBOOK. But I also have a style that is completely unblockable.

Mark Zuckerberg: Now, you try to block me. Brzzz! Byeow! Now you have learned that you cannot block me, yes? Yes. What is your question?

Mark Zuckerberg: Ah! I see what you did there. Trying to block me, right?

Mark Zuckerberg: This puny refrigerator could not block me. What makes you think you can?... Bzzt! Oh! Jrmm! Pyow! Wha! You are no match for my style.

Mark Zuckerberg: You call this a car? It wasn't even remotely able to block me. What is this car's style?

Mark Zuckerberg: So, you are trying to block me, huh? That's fine. What's your style?

Butters: It's the 21st century, gentlemen. There's nothing illegal about what I'm doing.
Jimmy: Yeah? Nothing illegal about us kicking your a-a-ass either.
Butters: Actually that is illegal.

Toolshed: Dude. This kid is deliberately lying about us on your platform for no other reason than to cause harm. Why are you protecting him?
Mark Zuckerberg: Simple. He paid me $17.23.
Butters: It's the Facebook safeguard program. Just $17 monthly gets you personal protection from Mark Zuckerberg.
Mark Zuckerberg: Come on! What's your style?

Capt. Yates: All right. All right. Everyone! I just want to know one thing. Who invited him here?..... Come on. Who invited Mark Zuckerberg to town in the first place?

Capt. Yates: Uh-huh. That's what I thought. You all brought Mark Zuckerberg into your lives and now you want the police to shoot him.

Capt. Yates: .... Well, that doesn't mean he's done anything illegal. Now, the police will help deal with Mark Zuckerberg, but... we aren't going to shoot him... I'm sorry, that's just the way it is. You all should have thought harder about this before letting him into your lives.

Eric: We are just kids trying to have our voices heard for black, handicapped and Jewish rights. Cut down in our prime by Mark Zuckerberg.
Mark Zuckerberg: But... but hold on. That... that's not true!
Eric: Facebook says it's true.
Mark Zuckerberg: Nooo!

Stephen: Go on! Tell Mr. Putin what you told me!
Butters: Well, I was just... Well, I just said how I just used Facebook like Russia did and really didn't break any rules...
Stephen: Didn't break any rules! Good job teaching our children that's all that matters! Just because there's a way to cause chaos in a town or disrupt an entire country doesn't mean you go and do it, does it?
Putin: Нет, сэр.

Eric: Go ahead. I bet you don't even get halfway through phase one on your franchise, DC Comics!

Craig: I thought Civil War wasn't supposed to happen until phase three.

That’s why the Web’s so great, ’cause no one pretends. You just put it out there, who you really are. And if people respond to it, that’s great. But if not, who cares? At least they saw you and not just some projection, you know?

Donna: With Rover we cannot only count the number of users, we can track what they click on, how long they look at it... I mean, it’s an advertiser’s dream.
Bobby Aron: So, it is about selling.
Donna: No, it’s... It’s about change. At Rover, you could be part of a universal, decentralized platform that’s already changing the world.

Donna: Look. You could join Microsoft and let them tell you what the future will be. Or you could join us and tell them.

Donna: The truth is, I am trying to build another version of Community. Except, this time, it’s the entire Internet. It’s everyone.

Risa: I’m sure they still don’t even come close to what you saw in your head.
Cameron: Well, the computer for that doesn’t exist yet.
Risa: You sure? Processor speed is growing at an exponential rate. I’ve seen what’s happening, and it’s mind-blowing. ’Cause here’s the thing: I don’t think you’re a game designer.
Cameron: Oh.

Ed: You’re 23, and you’re chief of security on a starship?

Yvonne: Will I see you tonight?
Rick: I never make plans that far ahead.

Captain Renault: I’ve often speculated on why you don’t return to America. Did you abscond with the church funds? Did you run off with a senator’s wife? I like to think you killed a man. It’s the romantic in me.
Rick: It’s a combination of all three.
Captain Renault: And what in heaven’s name brought you to Casablanca?
Rick: My health. I came to Casablanca for the waters.
Captain Renault: The waters? What waters? We’re in the desert.
Rick: I was misinformed.

Rick: What ever gave you the impression that I might help Laszlo escape?
Captain Renault: Because, my dear Ricky, I suspect that under that cynical shell... you are at heart a sentimentalist. Laugh if you will, but I happen to be familiar with your record. Let me point out just two items: In 1935, you ran guns to Ethiopia. In 1936, you fought in Spain on the Loyalist side.
Rick: And got well paid for it on both occasions.
Captain Renault: The winning side would have paid you much better...
Rick: Maybe.

Captain Renault: Carl, see that Major Strasser gets a good table, close to the ladies.
Carl: I have already given him the best, knowing he is German and would take it anyway.

Major Strasser: Do you mind if I ask you a few questions? Unofficially, of course.
Rick: Make it official if you like.
Major Strasser: What is your nationality?
Rick: I’m a drunkard.
Captain Renault: And that makes Rick a citizen of the world.

Captain Renault: Oh, no, Emile, please. A bottle of your best champagne. And put it on my bill... It’s a game we play. They put it on the bill, I tear up the bill. It is very convenient.

Rick: If it’s December 1941 in Casablanca, what time is it in New York?
Sam: What? My watch stopped.
Rick: I bet they’re asleep in New York. I bet they’re asleep all over America.

Rick: Here’s looking at you, kid.

Ilsa: Kiss me. Kiss me as if it were the last time.

Captain Renault: I’m delighted to see you. Did you have a good night’s rest?
Victor Laszlo: I slept very well.
Captain Renault: Strange. Nobody’s supposed to sleep well in Casablanca.

Carl: Monsieur Rick, you are getting to be your best customer.

Major Strasser: Captain, are you certain which side you’re on?
Captain Renault: I have no conviction, if that’s what you mean. I blow with the wind... and the prevailing wind happens to be from Vichy.

Rick: I’m not interested in politics. The problems of the world are not in my department. I’m a saloonkeeper.
Victor Laszlo: My friends in the underground tell me that you have quite a record. You ran guns to Ethiopia. You fought against the fascists in Spain.
Rick: What of it?
Victor Laszlo: Isn’t it strange you’re always fighting on the side of the underdog?
Rick: Yes, I found that a very expensive hobby. But then I never was much of a businessman.

Rick: Don’t you sometimes wonder if it’s worth all this? I mean, what you’re fighting for.
Victor Laszlo: We might as well question why we breathe. If we stop breathing, we’ll die. If we stop fighting our enemies, the world will die.
Rick: What of it? Then it’ll be out of its misery.

Rick: Ilsa, I’m no good at being noble. But it doesn’t take much to see that the problems of three little people... don’t amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world. Someday you’ll understand that.

Victor Laszlo: Welcome back to the fight. This time I know our side will win.

Capt. Tidwell: ...Then the assistant is your killer. Human nature. Men and women working together always end up banging. And most people are killed by the person they’re banging.
Dani: Well, that’s just not true.
Capt. Tidwell: Yeah, it is. It’s a fact. Come on, Crews, back me up on this.
Crews: Well, you two work together. When you have sex, who’s gonna kill who?
Dani: If I have sex with him, you’re gonna kill me immediately.
Crews: She’s an aggressive female.

Crews: «I hate you. We have to stop... But I can’t stop. I never want to stop.»
Dani: Is that a love letter or hate mail?
Capt. Tidwell: Love and hate, both four-letter words.

Crews: Betsy-Deborah. If you have sex with a woman with two names, does that...
Dani: No, it doesn’t count as a threesie.

Crews: Anybody else think this is weird?

Crews: Start with the corners...
Capt. Tidwell: You’re joking, right? They’re all corners.

Crews: You guys see that? She was here, right? You saw her, hit me?

Willow Lake

Mr. Mercedes 1x7

Bill: There’s a limit to the ass I’ll kiss. I’ve no gift for puckering.

Holly: Excuse me, Jerome? I was just wondering if it would still be a pleasure for you to meet me, but this time with your left hand?

Josh: World’s real simple... It’s made of winners and you. Now, you might assume that I feel sorry for you and your «disadvantages»... whatever the fuck they are. I don’t. You don’t work hard, you don’t believe in shit, and you never pull together for the greater good. You whine and make sarcastic comments, but when it comes time to get paid, you’re always there sticking your hands out... So how about you all go find a job somewhere else?.... Oh, that’s right. There is nowhere else.

Josh: You can sit in the dark and starve. Or you can step up and accept who your Daddy is... You better get it through your heads right fucking here and right fucking now, or you can stay home tomorrow and forevermore!

Josh: That’s coming out of your hides. Not his. He’s a good man. Limited, sure, but good.

Josh: To make up this 1%, we have to go full-on fucking Mayan. The gods demand a sacrifice... That gonna be you?

Bill: You just concentrate on the eulogy. That’s plenty right now... Uh, write down the things you liked about her best. It’s probably what everyone else liked about her, too.

Janey: Did you know her?
Bill: I did know her, yes. She was my mother.
Janey: Did you know her?
Bill: Not really, I guess. That generation.
Janey: Exactly. That generation didn’t talk about their feelings.

Janey: ...But that’s not the person. That’s... That’s what the person did.
Bill: We are what we do.
Janey: Oh, thank you, Aristotle... Are we?

Janey: Is it possible that I didn’t really know my own mother?
Bill: You knew as much as any of us can about anybody else.

Deborah: What did this mean again?
Brady: You know what it meant.
Deborah: Refresh me.
Brady: «Die, Motherfuckers, Die.»

Brady: What do you want to know, Mommy? Just ask...

Janey: ...I asked her once, «What does this Heaven look like?» And she said, «Willow Lake.» Willow Lake, it’s in the Berkshires...

Janey: My mother ... said to me once, «It’s all a beautiful accident, Janey, who we meet, who we love, who we’re loved by. And t-this life, it’s our dream and it’s God’s dream, too. And then... we wake up.» My mother’s awake now.

Janey: ...She has the softest smile on her face.

La Serpiente

Fear the Walking Dead 3×11

Qaletqa: What have you gotten us into?
Victor: «Jesus saves.»

Qaletqa: What about the truck?
Victor: The dead don’t drive.

Qaletqa: Oh, there’s gotta be a better way.
Madison: If there was, Strand would take it. He’s not the sewer tunnel type.

Daniel: How can I believe you with this culero by your side?

Qaletqa: Everything’s funny to you.
Victor: It’s not possible to have a sense of tragedy without having a sense of humor.

Lola: It’s rare a leader does right by everyone.
Madison: It’s not rare. It’s impossible.

---

Victor: We’ve got a saying back at home... «Don’t bite the hand that feeds you.»

Victor: Dissatisfaction breeds dissent, and dissent leads to revolt. You not wanting Daniel to be right does not make him wrong.

Victor: Now, what do you want?
Madison: I don’t know, it’s been too long since I’ve thought about what I want. Since before they were born.
Victor: Let’s go back to then. It was, what, the late ’80s, right? I bet you had a perm. What did permed Madison want?

Lola: I know they are hungry and thirsty— but one day they’ll see the good that we do.
Daniel: Maybe— some of them. There will always be unhappy ones. And they will be the ones who come looking for us— for you.

Daniel: I don’t know what you’re thinking, but I’m sure that serpent brain of yours is coiling around an idea.

Daniel: Be careful. A friendly face will slip a knife in your back when it’s turned. I know this.

Madison: Thirsty?

The Infiltrator

Robert Mazur: Aunt Vicky, what do you want from me?
Aunt Vicky: Bobby, Bobby, Bobby. Please, dear. Don’t be Bobby Loser. Be Bobby Somebody.

Bonni Tischler: ...Look, she’s just window dressing. So is this. Compliments of your government’s impound authority.
Robert Mazur: Mercedes?
Bonni Tischler: It’s who you know, Mazur. Now go out and get to know whoever it takes to make me look like I rubbed the right dick... It’s a metaphor.

Evelyn Mazur: You’re starting to look like them...

Roberto Alcaino: ... The economy is addicted to drugs. You know who’s the biggest money launderer in the US?
Well, I thought it was me. No?
Roberto Alcaino: No. Your Federal Reserve Bank. It’s called the anonymous window. They accept pallet loads of cash that used to be drug pesos, hundreds of millions of dollars from my country’s central bank, no questions asked. If your government didn’t have my dirty money, your economy would collapse.

---

Banker: We have a protocol. All we need from you is a signature. And don’t you worry about a thing.
Ospina: Why, what’s he gonna worry about? Bankers, all they are is crooked men with capes. Only they have suits, like Superman. Except, they’re maybe like the Joker.

Robert Mazur: We can get the founder and chairman, Abedi! But I need more time.
Bonni Tischler: There is a beginning, middle and end to everything.
Robert Mazur: Bonni. Bonni...
Bonni Tischler: This is the end, Mazur.

Kathy Ertz: It’s like you get close to people, you know them.
Robert Mazur: Yeah, well, that’s what happens when you’re doing your job.
Kathy Ertz: I know you don’t believe that. It’s not just a job.

Robert Mazur: Roberto, I’m glad you’re here. But there is a part of me that wishes you hadn’t taken that risk.
Roberto Alcaino: Without family or friends, what kind of world would this be? There would be no reason to be alive.

Robert Mazur: I loved Bob Musella...
Emir Abreu: Me, too. Me, too.
