Asher Brauner: Mitch Denton

Quotes 

• Mitch Denton : My old man stuck me down here for eight years and what did it get me?

  Vincent : We offered you a chance for a better life.

  Mitch Denton : Living like a rat? I had a chance for a better life and I took it.

  Vincent : No. Not a 'better' life.

  Mitch Denton : Don't tell me that. You don't know anything. Do you want to hear about the real world?

  Vincent : Is that the real world?

  Mitch Denton : It beats living in this hole! Up there, if you're smart, you get anything you want. After I ran away from here, I had to sweat blood to get work. Getting onto those docks took some doing. A lot of mean guys were in the way.

  Vincent : So you killed them.

  Mitch Denton : Law of the jungle. You ought to know something about that.

  Vincent : You were better than this. You still can be.

  Mitch Denton : Noble Vincent. Forget it.

  Vincent : I'll guide you out. Don't ever come back.

• Mitch Denton : Who's there?

  [Vincent steps out of the shadows] 

  Mitch Denton : Vincent. Don't you recognize me? I've come home, old friend.

  Vincent : You're not welcome here.

  Mitch Denton : Well, I couldn't resist a little nostalgia. Came by to see my old man. I thought I'd check out the tunnels.

  Vincent : What do you want?

  Mitch Denton : You changed the tunnel entrances. I got lost.

  Vincent : We changed them to keep out intruders.

  Mitch Denton : Me, an intruder? I used to live down here, remember?

  Vincent : What I remember is our friendship as children. Those times I remember.

• Mitch Denton : The day we went to the train yard - you, me, Rennie, and Ike. Those hobos were chasing us, they had their knives, they were gonna carve us up, and they were right on your heels. Who held open the grate so you could slip through by the skin of your teeth? Who held open the grate? Remember?

  Vincent : Yes. I remember.

  Mitch Denton : Not well enough! Not enough to help me when I needed help, when I was in trouble!

  Vincent : You betrayed our faith in you. Our trust. You ceased to be a part of us years ago.
