[voiceover] The three suicide sisters shared the same therapist, Dr. Emmett Meridian. He must be terrible at his job.
SS Scott Solomon
Meridian? Best thing that's ever happened to me ... so far. How about you? You finding him helpful?

I'm not joking; I kill people. Whoo. There it is again. [pause] You should try it. I know -- your big bad wolf has racked up a tidy little death toll.
[to Dr. Emmett Meridian in the kill room] You're awake. Shall we analyze your dreams?
