"But I didn't see what you were." "I was blinded by..." "I don't know..." "I..." "I thought it was love." "You weren't blinded." "The love was there." "You murdered so many Votans."

"You didn't tell us you were sleeping with her." "In fact, you told us the exact opposite." "Why'd you lie?" "I didn't sleep with her." "I'm faithful to my wife." "Good." "Because if you were sleeping with her and we caught you lying about it, that would look pretty bad." "(BEEPING)" "Of course, it would look a lot worse if we learned that Deirdre had been secretly taping and editing a blackmail package." "That would be a pretty strong motive to kill her, don't you think?" "(MOANING)" "Maybe she threatened you over a nice picnic lunch?" "If you stir up trouble, if you get in my way," "I swear I will drop your skinny ass off the top of this Arch!" "You know, this is a horrible mistake." "Alak didn't hurt anyone." "You know that!"

"I know you didn't." "But I also know that you betrayed me and you betrayed our child." "(CLANGING)" "I've been so stupid." "Yes." "(EXHALES)" "But it's good that you now understand that your wife is not Castithan." "You swore a human oath of fidelity which she expects you to honor." "Perhaps, some time behind bars will help you grow, as it has your father." "Did you set me up?" "Is this supposed to be some sort of weird family life lesson you're trying to teach me?" "Of course not." "What about Dad?" "How could you say such a thing?" "I don't know, Mom." "You tell me." "I'm late for my food walk." "(BREATHING HEAVILY)" "(DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES)" "(COUGHING)" "This is amazing." "Can I have another?" "Oh, eat as much as you wish, Andina." "These were my son's favorite, when he was your age."

"It's an old Castithan saying meaning..." ""We should help others." My mother used to say it." "(SIGHS) She died in the last razor rain storm." "I am so sorry." "Please, can you fill this for your father?" "Yes, Favi." "I brought some kataranga roast." "A small reminder of home. (CHUCKLES)" "But a large comfort." "Thank you." "What will become of your daughter after you have passed on?" "I have tried to locate family to care for her, but I have been unable." "My household recently lost a handmaiden." "Perhaps we could bind her to us." "You..." "You would do that?" "The purpose of a food walk is to provide comfort and peace to the dying." "I imagine knowing that your daughter would never go hungry again would provide that." "Favi, I could never repay such kindness." "That's not precisely true." "IRISA:" "We're not killing him." "If you let him go, he'll be back." "He's too dangerous!" "I said, "No." You're putting everything at risk!" "NOLAN:" "Oh, looks like you're stuck, Sukar." "The boss wants me alive."

"Hey, did you tell your cultist buddies about the time I stole that ark-tech out from under your nose, made you and your crew look like monkeys?" "Probably too embarrassing." "How did that stab wound heal up?" "Tishinkaa." "He's trying to get under your skin." "It's working." "Or what about the time I, uh, kicked your ass, shot you full of holes and then threw you out of the Gateway Arch?" "(LAUGHS) Do you remember that?" "The look on your face, it was priceless." ""Tishinkaa!" (LAUGHS)" "(GRUNTS)" "(GROANS)" "Sorry, Sukar." "Sorry, the stink from your beard, it caught me by surprise." "(INHALES DEEPLY) So you wanna punch me or what?" "Hurt him."

"Anything you have, anything worthwhile..." "There is someone out there who will take it from you." "So you have to fight, or you're gonna end up with nothing." "I had a guy.

"You're right." "I won't let anybody take him away from me." "ALAK:" "I didn't kill her." "But I did treat her badly." "She was hot and fun for a while." "And then I got bored and I threw her away."

"Do you know her real name?" "I didn't want to." "Real names spoil the magic." "Do I look really stupid to you?" "Maybe this will convince you." "This is what I hit her with." "I've just gone to a great deal of trouble to free our son from the Lawkeeper's jail." "You're a good mother." "(SCOFFS)" "Is that sarcasm?" "Well, if you have to ask, it probably is." "So, Alak..." "Did he do it?" "I think we both know the answer to that." "Do we?" "I know you placed the microphone under his bed." "What I don't know is why." "What microphone?" "Are you seriously trying to tell me you did not kill Deirdre?" "Well, actually, I assumed it was you." "Then, who..." "Oh." "(LAUGHING)" "ALAK:" "Christie, I'm home." "(SIGHS) Christie!" "(SNIFFS)" "Christie." "This is poison." "I know exactly what that is." "Prostitutes use it to end unwanted pregnancies." "A few splashes can trigger a miscarriage."

"Are you trying to kill me?" "Not you." "It." "Alak loves me." "But he won't leave his pregnant wife." "You're lying." "Not this time." "You were never my friend."

"This is not the time." "Ah, you follow the rules, you obey the law, you do everything right, and here I am giving you a hard time, right, kid?" "I've noticed." "I got a different relationship with the rules." "They bug me." "It's hard to be a lawkeeper unless you follow the law." "Yeah, well, my way, it gets results." "Mind you, your way...
