Why Women Kill 2×10

Alma Fillcot: Let it go. Hmm? For me?

Bertram Fillcot: And how do we do that?
Alma Fillcot: I think you know what needs to be done...

Alma Fillcot: I'm sorry. But at least you finally know the truth. Anyway, I'll go. You just lie here and try to control your rage.

Alma Fillcot: Let me? I'm not asking permission.
Bertram Fillcot: It's too risky.
Alma Fillcot: The only real risk is doing nothing.

Alma Fillcot: Bertram... I like Vern, too. I do, but... He must be dealt with.

Bertram Fillcot: It's your, your big night tonight, isn't it? You want to enjoy it? Think what all that shooting and escaping will do to your hair...
Alma Fillcot: That is a good point. Very well. You may save me.

Alma Fillcot: I think... when a woman's come as far as I have, that... well, it's a sin not to tell her she's beautiful.
