"He was about 45, blond hair, graying." "May have been a toupee." "Really waxy skin." "And, uh, his eyes were intense." "He was well dressed." "Thomas Eichhorst." "Give me a minute." "Let him talk to her." "What's your history with this German?" "It's long." "Complicated." "He's a strigoi."

"You are their employee, not part of their family." "There is danger in that house." " Audrey!" "Keene!" "Get your coats on." " No!" "You can't!" "Don't argue with me about it." "Okay, we're taking them back." "Okay." "But if it is as I say... if she is sick... we will take the children away from there." "I'm a nurse, Mom." "If Mrs. Luss is sick, I'll know what to do." "Kids, get your coats on." "[Speaking French]" "Dr. Moise said one of the side effects of corticosteroids is weight gain." "In your case, that could be a good thing." "Did he happen to comment on the elephant in the room?" "Now, what happens if his drug cocktail fails and my body rejects the liver?" "Sir, I don't think it's productive for you to think about that." "In a few days, I'm sure we'll look back on this... as a small bump in the road to your recovery." "[Eichhorst] I am most gratified to hear that." "We're all terribly fond of Eldritch." "Herr Eichhorst..." "I'm not aware that we're on a first-name basis." "I'll be right outside." "Your manservant has developed misgivings about our relationship." "He's a keen judge of character." "And very protective." "Understandably." "He's been with me since his birth." "His parents worked for my mother and father." "It's disappointing that is no longer a common practice." "I assume you've informed your master... that the plan I've constructed is unfolding perfectly." "Everyone is focused on the Citizens for Liberty cyber-attacks." "And only a small wrinkle."

"I want you to have the German... bring $100,000 cash to Grand Central at 3:30 this afternoon." "The Vanderbilt entrance." "I get the money, you get Redfern's body... and I'm never to be heard from again." " You assured me that you had this fellow under control." " It's a bluff." "Kent would never have the courage to try this on his own." "The Jew is behind it." "I thought you were going to deal with him." "He has more tenacity than I thought." "Well..." "I hope it won't be a problem." "No problem." " I'll take care of it." " Wunderbar." "[Chattering]" "[Coughing]" "Felix." "[Speaking Spanish]" "[Coughing]" "Make room." " You all right?"

" [Buzzer Buzzes]" " Look, Sylvia, I'm..." " No." "Don't bother." "Look, I'm sorry I lied." "All right?" "I was only trying to protect you." "[Scoffs] Let's go." "Goddamn it." "[Sighs]" " She'll come around." " Will she?" "Look, I'm all in with you guys." "Let's hope this works and the German guy shows up." "He has too much hubris." "Once challenged, he will show."

"Quite the opposite, my friend." "It's what humanity craves." " A strong leader, a visionary." " Visionary?" " Hitler is a megalomaniac who declared himself dictator." " Wrong!" "Hitler was elected democratically!" " [Explosion]" " He went before the Reichstag." "He asked the elected representatives of the people to grant him extraordinary powers." "And they did, by an overwhelming majority." " Because they were terrified." " Yes." "Terrified of democracy!" "They'd lived through the chaos of the Weimar Republic!" "Governments gridlocked by partisan bickering!" "They realized Plato was right." "A republic can only be led by a philosopher king... with the wisdom... to look after the needs of the many."
