Eric Gotts quotes from Wonderfalls

Eric

Why do they always sacrifice the pretty ones?

Jaye

I guess killing pretty people is easier than killing ugly people. Although, you'd think the opposite would be true.

Eric

Why do they always sacrifice the pretty ones?

Jaye

I guess killing pretty people is easier than killing ugly people. Although, you'd think the opposite would be true.

Eric

So, did you defy the chicken?

Jaye

Uh-huh.

Eric

And how'd that work out for ya?

Jaye

I think I may have killed a man.

Eric

Oh. So not as well as we'd hoped then?

Eric

The man, do you remember what he looked like?

Strange looking sort. Dressed in all black. I remember thinking that if Johnny Cash had been born an Irishman, the music would have been more lilting.

Mahandra

...the story of Millie Marcus and her barrel.

Eric

It is sort of the quintessential American tale.

Mahandra

Yes! It teaches us there's nothing a person can’t do.

Eric

Or nothing a person actually has to do. I mean look at her, she’s 100% fabrication. She decided what she wanted to be and damn the facts. You don’t get much more American than that.

Eric

You know, even if you got rid of me, you'd still be left with the biggest obstacle to Jaye's heart.

Peter

What's that?

Eric

Jaye.

We answer to a higher law.

Eric

We do?

Jaye

Love. Love is our higher law. And we're here to save it. Not that it was ever in any danger. From me.

Mahandra

Alright, what're we drinking to?

Eric

How about crazy women and losers who love them.

Mahandra

You are not a loser. She is your wife. You don't just stop loving her because...

Eric

I am not talking about Heidi.

Mahandra

Uh... wow, really? [Eric gave her a convincing look] You love her? [another look from Eric] well, then you have to tell her.

Eric

Not until she tells me.

Mahandra

Now you're playing chicken. She has to say it first?

Eric

Not it, but something, anything. I just need a word. One word, so I'd know I am not the only one feeling this. But she can't say it and I don't know why.

Eric

I'd like to return these items.

Jaye

Did they break? 'Cause we sell a lot of crap here.
