Echo quotes

I found out who cut the brakes. They're taken care of.

Chula

Oh, and you think that makes me feel better? That another family is now destroyed?

It makes me feel better.

Wilson Fisk

I'm growing concerned, Maya. You're not alone. We all mourn your father. I understand your rage.

Maya

Do you?

Fisk

My father was killed also. When I was twelve years old. The pain that I felt in the wake of that moment is something I've never felt again since. Let me help you release this rage in, in a more constructive way.

Maya

How?

Fisk

A job. You have greatness in you. Take your hurt. Your loss. Take your pain. Make it into something useful!

Henry Lopez

Gretchen's our resident mortician.

Maya

You're an undertaker?

Henry

If you want a body fixed... if you want a body gone... She's the person you call.

Maya

You want me fixed or gone?

Henry

Let's start with "fixed".

Henry

I won't bring a war here, to the people I love, and who love you. Why are you doing this?

Maya

Kingpin had his run. It's time for a queen.

Maya

I have a strategy. It's playing out the way I planned.

Henry

People will die.

Maya

I say when it starts. I say when it stops. That's not chaos. That's power.

Henry

You sound like Fisk.

Maya

Are you with me or against me?

Henry

All I know is, I gotta figure out how to clean your mess. Just lay low. You seem to have forgotten that people close to you are the one who get hurt.

Maya

And who's that, exactly?

They will see me. Not as they think I should be. They will see me as I am.

You know, you two are exactly alike.

Chula

We are not alike. Everything I've done has been to protect my family, no matter how much it hurt.

You lost your daughter. Why don't you swallow your pride before you lose your granddaughter, too?

Chula

I can't talk to her now. I got nothing to say.

Well maybe you shouldn't talk to her. Maybe you should just listen for once.

Maya

Look, I'm just here for work stuff. No sense disrupting your life if I'm not gonna be here long.

Bullshit. You can't even look me in the eye. I waited for you. Every night, for years. And you still couldn't be bothered to send one message.

Maya

We drifted apart. It happens.

We didn't drift. All those emails, texts. Nothing ever came back. You didn't text me back after your dad died. I would have been there.

Now, you know I don't get in the family business since your grandmother and I... not together. No more. But you won't go see her.

Maya

She doesn't wanna see me.

Her heart was broken when you left. She left this place like it was. Like a museum.

Maya

She could've reached out any time.

I guess we all do things we wish were different.

Fisk

It hurts that you were so ready to believe the worst. You raised a hand to me in violence.

Maya

Violence was always our language.

Maya

He's handing me "queenpin".

Henry

Please tell me you're not that stupid.

Maya

Just because you don't think I can--

Henry

I know you can! That's what scares me!

Chula always says "There's nothing too broke to fix. If you want it bad enough, don't throw it away."

Fisk

I suspect you've come to kill me. Again. I can't remember a time when I haven't loved you like a daughter. We only had each other, don't you remember?

Maya

My memories are a lie. A child's fantasy that turned a monster into a hero.

Fisk

"A monster"? You knew what you were part of at every turn. All the people you killed for me, did you plead for their lives? I ask you... who's the monster?

Fisk

I know now that I failed you. The same as my father failed me. I keep this with me. It's to remind myself of where I come from, and what I had to do to get there. [Fisk presents the hammer he beat his father to death with.] My father felt stronger when he beat my mother, until I got strong enough to stop him with that.

Maya

You... killed him?

Fisk

I killed him to be free. To move forward in my life. So, enough games! [he hands her the hammer] Here. Free yourself. Go ahead. Free me!

Fisk

[referencing his father in a deleted scene] If you feel half of what I felt for him, then I've become what I hate.
