Trish Walker quotes from Jessica Jones

Malcolm

You know, they don't always. Win. They don't always win.

Trish

They do enough that I can't do this anymore.

Young Trish

But... the parenthetical says "dramatic."

Dorothy

What did I tell you about parentheticals?

Young Trish

Cross 'em out.

Dorothy

Every girl is gonna be doing a goddamn fake swoon. Find something else.

Ms. Walker?

Trish

Omar.

I'm so sorry. She was a great lady. It happened on my watch.

Trish

There's nothing you could've done.

There's always something we can do. Satan wins when the forces of light stand idly by.

Trish

Thank you, Omar.

Trish

You blackmail guilty people.

Erik

I'm re-thinking that career path.

Erik

So I'm supposed to let you face off with a murderer alone?

Trish

I'm powered, too.

Erik

But he's armed. If you get hurt chasing my bad guy, Jessica is going to kick my face in and I'll let her.

Trish

Jessica is not my mother!

Trish

What are you doing here?

Malcolm

My job.

Trish

[scoffs] Jessica.

Malcolm

If this was my play, you'd be in police custody.

Trish

What? Because you're all about justice? Helping Hogarth exonerate rapists and murderers?

Malcolm

You're right. I have a lot to make up for. [Trish scoffs] You know, Jessica still believes in you. Well, she believes in Trish. I'm not even sure who that is anymore.

Trish

Carl Nussbaumer killed people. Montero burned people.

Malcolm

And their reckoning was your job? That's your defense?

Trish

You know, you're not the only one with a lot to make up for. It's about... balancing the scales.

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

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.

Jessica

Are you just sitting here in the dark?

Trish

It isn't dark for me.

They pulled jurisdiction, so I'll be handing you off to them. Due process doesn't seem to apply to enhanced peoples. We've been told to close all cases related to you. Please acknowledge that you understand the list of charges against you, for the record. "Two counts of murder in the first degree. One count of murder in the second degree. Multiple counts of aggravated assault, kidnapping, breaking and entering, trespassing. And one count of attempted murder... against your own sister". Ms. Walker, do you understand? Ms. Walker? Ms. Walker, do you understand?

Trish

[breathing shakily] I'm the bad guy. [exhales]
