Denis O'Hare: Spalding

Quotes 

• Madame Delphine LaLaurie : Is she dead?

  Spalding : [shaking his head]  She cannot die.

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : What?

  Spalding : She's immortal.

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : But you said...

  Spalding : I just wanted her out of my hair. You were most likely to cooperate.

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : Well, turds on that. What am I supposed to do with her now?

  Spalding : I don't know. Bury her.

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : She'd just dig her way out!

  Spalding : Make sure she can't.

• Madame Delphine LaLaurie : Butler. I've done what you asked.

  Spalding : You got it?

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : Paid a king's ransom for it, too.

  Spalding : Oh. Whoa. An authentic 1895 Armand Marseille Dream Baby. You're sure this is the original gown?

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : There's a certificate of authenticity in there somewhere.

  Spalding : This was a very limited run, you know. Dieter Hoffbonner designed the gowns himself.

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : Grown man, taking pleasure in a doll baby. It's unsavory. All right, I did my part. Now before somebody notices that half the silver's gone missing, you give me what you promised me.

  Spalding : Yes. The potion that will render the voodoo queen mortal and allow you to end her life.

  [pulls out a basket containing a box of Benadryl] 

  Spalding : A few capsules dissolved in her drink.

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : Ben...

  Spalding : Shhh! No. Never speak it aloud.

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : It's that powerful?

  Spalding : You have no idea.

• Spalding : Finally. A living doll. All my own.

• Madame Delphine LaLaurie : You can talk. I thought you were tongueless.

  Spalding : I was when I was alive.

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : Are you saying you're dead?

  Spalding : Murdered. Right here in this room.

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : That's true, isn't it? I spent enough time in the grave to know a spirit when I encounter one.

• Spalding : The black devil who is responsible for your unending torment is sheltered right under this very roof, treated like an honored guest.

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : Don't I know it. They got me waiting on her hand and foot.

  Spalding : It's wrong!

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : It's more than wrong. It's a violation of the natural order.

• Spalding : I care about this coven. About preserving the ancient line of Salem. Everything is at risk because Fiona has become confused, reckless. She's forgotten that Marie Laveau has been and always will be her sworn enemy. Marie Laveau must die.

  Madame Delphine LaLaurie : She can't die. The bitch is immortal.

  Spalding : By magic. And by magic, she can be undone.
