Jessica Hyde quotes from Utopia

Jessica

Let me make this very clear. Your lives as you know them are over. What the next 48 hours are about is abandoning everything you know or thought you could rely on and adjusting to the new reality. If you can adjust you will live. If you can't, you will die.

Jessica

Ian, you won't be able to shoot me.

Ian

Yeah? Don't imagine I won't, Jess.

Jessica

No, really, you won't be able to shoot me. You've got the safety catch on. [Ian looks at it, Jessica yanks it away] They don't generally have safety catches. Except on telly.

Ian

[as Jessica steals a car] Is this your car?

Jessica

You're so cute.

Ian

He's on our side, isn't he?

Jessica

There are no sides. Just people who help you and people who don't.

Arby

It's not easy, is it? Growing up without a childhood. I was brought up in an institution. My room was a cell, really. There was an air vent there. I drew pictures around it, faces to keep the Devil out. I was told I'm like this 'cause of early trauma. I disconnected. A beneficial side effect, I suppose.

Jessica

I know this place.

Arby

It was me. I killed Christos. I tied him to that tree. I broke arms and fingers, tore the skin from his body. And in the end, I opened his stomach, reached inside, and pulled out what was in my hand. I was 15 years old. But he didn't say one word. Didn't speak. Didn't say where you were. That's how much he loved you. I wanted you to know that you were loved, because I wasn't.

Jessica

Where did he put them? I want those pages and I want...

Becky

I know! You want Mr. Rabbit. But going off and killing him isn't going to make your father any less of a cock than he was!

Jessica

You psychoanalyzing me, Becky? We best pals now? You want to wear my lipstick?

Becky

Shit. You're wearing makeup.

Jessica

We'll be outside. That's not to leave this room.

Becky

Could say please.

Jessica

Please, Becky, don't take the manuscript out of this room or I will rip your fucking head off.

Michael

I am not with them.

Jessica

Michael, don't worry. If I thought you were with them, you'd be dead.

Jessica

Look, find out where they have them. Take a mobile, the GPS.

Michael

They search me. They fucking search me. How do I get a phone in there?

Jessica

Shove it up your arse. No, I'm serious. You have to shove it up your arse. It's the only way. Don't use a big one.

Jessica

If he moves, shoot him.

Arby

We're family. There's no need for that.

Jessica

Aim for his chest.

Jessica

He's going to release the virus now.

It would appear so, dear.

Jessica

Call me "dear" again and I'll cut your face off.

Jessica

Are you scared, Becky?

Becky

Yeah. Sort of terrified. But I know it's what I want.

Jessica

And you think this is right? For him, I mean? Have you ever looked into the eyes of someone you love who's dying? It's not something that leaves you.
