Gideon Goddard quotes from Mr. Robot

I think they got a rootkit inside the server.

Gideon Goddard

What's a rootkit?

It's like a crazy serial rapist with a very big dick.

Angela Moss

Jesus, Lloyd.

Gideon Goddard

We might get lucky, they might get sloppy, make a mistake, you know, catch some...

Elliot Alderson

This is the world we live in. People relying on each other's mistakes to manipulate one another, use one another, even relate to one another. A warm, messy circle of humanity.

Mr. Robot

Without you, there is no plan.

Elliot Alderson

That's it? It's over? You expect me to believe that? See you in another life. Did you hear that? I can't believe it. Is that really happening? Fsociety's finally over. The recent glitch in the otherwise neat reality I created over the years, I'll never slip up like that again. I'm gonna be more normal now. Maybe Shayla could even be my girlfriend. I'll go see those stupid Marvel movies with her. I'll join a gym. I'll heart things on Instagram. I'll drink vanilla lattes. I'm gonna lead a bug-free life from now on. Anything to protect my perfect maze. [pokes his head into Gideon's office] Hey, Gideon. Is that dinner still on for tonight?

Gideon Goddard

Um, yeah, sure. Uh, uh, you want... You want to come?

Elliot Alderson

Yeah.

Gideon Goddard

Great.

Elliot Alderson

Can I bring my girlfriend?

Gideon Goddard

You have a girlfriend?

Elliot Alderson

Well, I haven't asked her yet, but I will. Hopefully she'll say yes.

Gideon Goddard

Uh, yeah, sure... Perfect.

Elliot Alderson

Thanks. [leaves]

Gideon Goddard

Was he drinking Starbucks?

It's obvious why they use you as their patsy. You give off a very sympathetic, honest vibe. You're the perfect vessel for their lies.

Gideon Goddard

Yeah, well, I don't... I don't know what to say to that but, uh... I'll agree with you that, uh... it sure as hell feels like there's something bigger than me in control.

Thank you.

Gideon Goddard

For what?

Tomorrow, I'm gonna be a hero.

Gideon Goddard

I'm sorry?

You may just be a patsy, but you're an important one. In fact, I don't think I've ever met a bigger crisis actor than you before. This is for our country.
