The Penguin · Season 1, Episode 15

Oz and Vic in “Unfinished Business”

I gave you clothes, money, a place to crash. You got all the opportunity in the world right fuckin' here, for chrissake! But this? This is all you feel? You could've left whenever you wanted. But you chose to stay. How 'bout you ask yourself why?

Oz, I don't--

No, no, no, let me help! You stayed... 'cause you want something better. You want more than your father ever had.

No! My dad would be ashamed of me.

You wanna know what's shameful, Vic? Working your whole goddamn life, having nothing to show for it. You still think there's... good, bad? Right and wrong? There ain't. There's just this. Survival. Security, pleasure. They don't give out awards for dying in the projects.

Fuck you.

Fuck me?! FUCK THE GODDAMN WORLD! They don't give a shit about you, or your family! You think you're nothing. You are nothing 'til the day you die. I thought you were smart, but that's the life you want. Guess what, Vic? Good news! You already got it. So go, get the fuck out of here. You don't deserve this.
