The Pretender 2001 (2001 TV Movie)

Jon Gries: Broots

Quotes 

• Broots : First there's the explosion in the D.C. underground. The there's Miss Parker seeing visions, and the Mr. Raines getting murdered, then unmurdered. And then Mr. Lyle, who used to not have a thumb, getting a thumb and Mr. Raines, who had a thumb, losing his thumb to Mr. Lyle. And then finding out that not only one pretender escaped from the Centre. No, three of them did. And then trying to locate a live psychiatrist, only to find a dead doc and being arrested by a guy who's not really a federal agent. Oh, and while we're at it, why don't we just throw Mr. Parker into the mix?

• Broots : Miss Parker, I'm getting a pretty weird feeling about this.

  Miss Parker : Everything about my family is weird. Including, the last time I saw my father... just after he murdered Raines.

  Broots : Last time I saw my father was just after he sculpted the shrubs into "Snow-White and the seven dwarfs".

  Miss Parker : [Awkward Pause]  I guess everyone's family is weird in their own way.

• Miss Parker : [after Miss Parker almost hits Broots with a car]  You okey, Broots?

  Broots : Yeah... I have a little more empathy for roadkill than I did a second ago, but I'm fine.
