Jessica Jones quotes from Jessica Jones

Trish

Mom, it's complicated, and actually kinda private.

Jessica

I think you should tell her.

Dorothy

Please don't tell me you're a couple.

Trish

What?

Dorothy

There are much better lesbians out there.

Jessica

Why do serial killers always come from small, bucolic towns?

Trish

I'm not sure that's a hard and fast rule.

Jessica

[regarding Trish's salad] You know, you don't have to eat that shit anymore. You're powered now. Your body can process a Cheeto or two.

Trish

Yeah, I'm not a fan of anything that orange.

Jessica

[shows Dorothy a picture from the news of Trish] You recognize this pose?

Dorothy

Oh no!

Jessica

I know.

Dorothy

Her costume is a disaster.

Jessica

[sarcastically] Once again you've hit the nail on the head.

Dorothy

It should have a theme, something relatable. Like cats. The Internet is gaga over cats.

I'll be here processing all the women you've terrified.

Jessica

Well, maybe one of them is actually Sallinger's victim.

Jessica

I hate giving a shit.

Trish

I'm beginning to see why.

Jessica

We're gonna get through this. I was strong way before I gave a shit. But you gave a shit long before you were even strong. But we figured it out.

Trish

My mom would've been proud of that.

Jessica

But your mom was always proud. You are who you are because of Dorothy. I've gotta give her that.

Gillian

The cops came by while I was cleaning up the mess they made. Did they apologize? They most certainly did not.

Jessica

What did you tell them?

Gillian

That I'd never personally seen you murder anyone.

Jessica

Thanks.

Malcolm

I quit.

Jessica

Got fired.

Malcolm

Both.

Jessica

Welcome back to humanity.

Malcolm

You should know, uh, working for Hogarth, I did some things, the kind that change you. You know.

Jessica

If the new you is less of a sanctimonious asshole, then it'll be an upgrade.

Jeri

Trish is going to need a good lawyer, and I'm the best. You'd be helping her by facilitating a meeting.

Jessica

Dorothy had no clue that she was about to die and even she wanted to do something good before she checked out. You know you're dying. What are you doing?

Trish

You were willing, too, once, with Kilgrave.

Jessica

And it nearly destroyed me.

Trish

But it hasn't destroyed me. Maybe that's my real power. I can carry the burden.

Trish

But I'm so angry.

Jessica

So am I. But that's the burden we have to carry.

Trish

I'm not sure I can.

Jessica

I hope it continues.

Erik

What, you and me?

Jessica

The upward swing.

Erik

Same thing.

Luke

He made a decision. And forced me to make one, too.

Jessica

The only decision I'm qualified to make is bourbon or more bourbon.

Luke

Bullshit. In fact... if I ever go too far... I hope that someone gives enough of a shit about me to take me down.

Jessica

Is that a risk these days?

Luke

Going too far? Some would say it's inevitable.

Jessica

The masked vigilante has killed three people. Bad people. Maybe you're glad they're gone. Maybe you're even rooting for her. But that's not heroic, it's murder. She won't go down without a fight, but she needs to go down. So I'm asking you to help me find her. Her name is Trish Walker.

Trish

No. Shit!

Jessica

You may know her as Patsy.

Trish

She can't do this!

Jessica

She's on the run. She's holding her attorney, Jeryn Hogarth, hostage. She's dangerous. Do not approach her. Don't try to be a hero. It's a shitty job.
