TV show quotes
Agent Malone, I would like it to be noted that my client is cooperating fully in this investigation.
Apart from hiding every crucial piece of information your client has been very cooperative and we'll be sure to make a note of that.
[Samantha is looking through Eve's modeling photos.]
Eve Cleary as J-Lo. Eve Cleary as Britney. Who the hell are we looking for?
[Danny and Martin are discussing the condition of an apartment.]
Here's what eighteen hundred gets you in the city.
Aw, come on, they can't all be this bad.
You're right--most of the time the bathtub's in the kitchen.
Well, it's a big city out there. I think if you grow up here, you take it for granted.
You're right.
Wonder how many girls are all like Eve? They come to this town full of hope but really, they're just these tiny pebbles that get thrown into a lake so big they barely leave a ripple. You know, it's amazing. Chet Collins is so desperate to find out anything about his son, but we can't find one person who noticed Eve was missing.
Jack, about Chet Collins--I don't think you should give up.
Sometimes I wish I could.
No, you don't. You're a hope junkie, like the rest of us.
Trevor Haines is a con artist. He read about your son's case on-line. He memorized some details and he made up the rest. He's done it before, Chet. Several times. I'm truly sorry.
Feels like drowning, Jack...like drowning so slowly you don't even realize what's happening. Well, I-I have to go. I can't let Sean go, but...you know, each time...each time I'm scared that I might not be able to hang on.
You can hang on to me.
Gentlemen, I got to tell you, this guy Spaulding sounds like real scum. I hope you can put him away for the rest of his miserable life and I'll be glad to help you do that...as soon as you appear before me with constitutionally-obtained evidence. Now, just so you understand Agents Taylor and Malone, you may not enter a house without a search warrant under the flimsiest of exigent circumstances and then bootstrap that questionable entry into a fishing expedition for other evidence. [to Danny] And you, son--you had no right to continue the search after finding that dog. You had no right to open the photo album and you certainly had no right to remove it from the premises. And you have absolutely no right to an arrest warrant based on the photographs found therein. Make sense?
I meant what I said before, Graham. You care about these kids. That's why you took Andy under your wing. He was confused, vulnerable. You were the only one who understood him.
Is that right?
I think so. But then he turned on you, didn't he? I know how that feels. Know how...painful that can be. You pour yourself into someone--your time, energy, and devotion. You give them everything they need to grow and then they just abandon you.
Are you speaking from experience?
Sure. You love someone...you make love to someone...you give your life to them and then they don't even look at you.
I know about the other boy.
What other boy?
This kid. The young, scrawny, frightened, lonely kid. The kid who only wanted love and approval. I know his pain. I know that boy.
Do you?
Yes. I do. And I know that you want to put that boy out of his misery. You know, Graham, your father wasn't a strong man. He wasn't supportive man. He was a weak, cowardly, sadistic bastard. I know he used to touch you and I know you used to beg him to stop.
You believe whatever you want. You don't know anything about my father.
You know, I've been giving something a lot of thought. It's occurred to me that...in some ways, I envy you.
You envy me?
Yes. The power...that you have with those boys--what that must feel like.
What boys?
Andy, Eric Lipinski, Robert Griffith. I know there have been others.
There have been many.
Do me a favor, Graham. Tell me what it's like...the moment that you take them out. Tell me. You can see the terror in their eyes, right? You can feel their hearts racing. You can feel the cold sweat under your hands just before you stick the needle in. It must be such a rush. Martin, put the CD in.
[Martin plays the CD; Moby's "One of These Mornings" begins playing.]
Andy made this CD for Phoebe. He wanted her to think about him when he wasn't there. Is that what you wanted? Is that why you stole it? You wanted to think about him. Is it what you two listened to when you were together?
No.
No, that's right, that's right. That's right, you never got a chance. You never got a chance to go back to him because he's still out there. He's waiting. It must be hard. It must be hard knowing that he's out there...waiting. The touch of his skin, the feel of him under you. I understand you, Graham, I do. I've been to that school. I've seen those beautiful boys. Their beautiful bodies...to hold all that innocence in your arms...to take...the power. It must be really frustrating knowing that Andy is out there waiting for you...waiting...waiting...waiting and you can't get back to him. You can't be with him one last time. But I tell you what I'm going to do. I'm going to give you fifteen minutes with him, if you tell me where he is.
You'd do that?
I'll give you fifteen minutes with him...alone. You can do whatever you want.
Fifteen minutes.
Whatever you want.
[They find Andy]
Agent Malone, do I get my fifteen minutes now?
Your fifteen minutes are over.
[Jack throws up after he walks away from Spalding]
[Talking to the stepson of a missing person]:
You know what I used to do when I was your age and I missed someone?
What?
I used to lay in my bed at night and I used to look out the window and I'd stare up at the sky and I would name each of the stars after someone that I missed. So whenever I felt lonely, I'd look up at the sky and I'd see Daniella, Erica and Andrea right there. It made it a little better.
I know everything. I know about your California whore.
Katherine, calm down.
Calm down? You have been lying to me for two years. Every day for two years. How could you do this to me? To Father?
Five A.M.--Danny's up early.
That's assuming he went to bed.
Great. Martin, you're on your way to San Diego to liaise with Danny.
[to Martin] Don't forget your surf gear.
[Martin leaves.]
Should we send a referee?
Nah, let 'em duke it out.
The boys just called from San Diego. Patrick hasn't lived in that corporate apartment for months.
There's no hotel charges on his credit card statements.
Well, Mr. Brooks Brothers's not living out of his car.
That's just it. He's only Mr. Brooks Brothers on the east coast. New York, he's Noble, Ralph Lauren, Tiffany's; but in San Diego, it's Denny's and discount outlets.
Two lives.
