“Unfinished Business” quotes from Criminal Minds

Nate

Oh, you know what? You don't want to be with me, then don't, alright?

Brenda

Nate, I'm kidding, come on... Of course I want to be with you, I love you!

Nate

Yeah? Well then why do you treat me like shit all the time?

Brenda

Because I had a really fucked up life and I use sarcasm to hide how ridiculously vulnerable I really am... Hey, come on, Jesus, you know that.

Brenda

All we have is this moment, right here, right now. The future is just a fucking concept that we use to avoid being alive today. So be here... now.

It's what our father wanted.

No, it's what you want, because you never liked me!

Well, you got that right.

You hate that you couldn't control your father when he was alive, and now you're trying to do it when he's dead.

It was his decision!

David

There is a significant unpaid balance on the account.

We'll pay for it!

If you take one cent from him, you'll be hearing from my attorney!

David

I really don't think that's necessary.

Oh, no? I gave the last six years of my life to that man; and contrary to what these stupid bitches think, I really did love him and I will not be humiliated like this!

Yeah, well, if you do not follow our father's instructions exactly, you'll be hearing from our attorney, who used to work for Disney.

Oh, bring it on, ferret face!

Oh, fuck you, you gold-digging slut!

How dare you!

There are naked pictures of you on the Internet! My son showed them to me!

Nate

Shut up! All of you, shut the fuck up! Jesus Christ, a man died. Your husband, your father lived a life, and now he's dead. Show some respect.

Billy

I'm not saying that you did it on purpose! But I do think we need to disengage from each other, because our relationship is really toxic.

Ruth

So, what's new?

Brenda

Actually, I spent all night doing it with this couple from Orange County. And I have absolutely no idea why.

Margaret

More punch, anyone?

Claire

Sure, I'll take another hit.

Margaret

Are you sick, dear, or are you always this deathly pale?

[as imagined by Brenda] I'm sorry, but I don't think I can help you because you don't need any help. You've clearly evolved beyond the need for therapy. I'm actually in awe of you because I'd be fucking strangers like a truck-stop whore on crack if I wasn't so inhibited by my pathetic Judeo-Christian upbringing.

Claire

If we live our lives the right way, then every single thing we do becomes a work of art.

Brenda

[after sex] Okay, you guys need to go now.

Okay, then.

Hm, can I have your number?

Brenda

Why? So we can date?

[as they leave] Late.'

Ruth

Claire, are you depressed?

Claire

I'm not even going to answer that question.

Ruth

Well, whatever you're going through, I hope you don't blame me.

Ruth

I would like to go on record as saying I am in full support of you going to art school.

Claire

Consider it recorded. But I'm just taking a tour. Let's not get our panties in a wad over it.

David

What are you looking for?

Keith

Anything that seems too, uh … funny.

David

Funny "ha-ha," or funny gay?

Ruth

Clearly there's something wrong with me that you hide something like this from me, your brother and sister knew for months.

Nate

I wanted to protect you …

Ruth

You're not supposed to protect me. I'm supposed to protect you. That's what a mother does. She tries. Most of the time she fails, but how are you ever going to feel loved if you don't ever let me try?

Nate

I do. I do feel loved.

Ruth

[crying] There's just so many months I could have loved you better.

Nate

You loved me fine.

Ruth

You're everything … you're everything to me, and you don't even know it.

Nate

[crying] Oh, God, I don't wanna go. Oh, I can't do this. I can't!

Ruth

I won't let you go. I'll never let you go.

Come back tomorrow noon, we'll torch him then.

That little Indian bitch turned herself in so that she wouldn't come back as a rodent.
