Quotes

Helena : Do you like my hair, Paul? Yeah, very pretty, dirty sexy Rachel. Like my mother.
-
Sarah Manning : Oi! Just... just... just get her something to wear, please?
Felix Dawkins : Fine. I'm sure I've got a Ukrainian folk costume in here, somewhere.
[Helena hisses at Felix]
Felix Dawkins : Oh, god!
Sarah Manning : Hey! Hey hey hey. You treat him with respect. You got it? That's my brother. Which means he's one of our sisters. Family. You get it, meathead?
Helena : Do not call me this.
Sarah Manning : Do you understand, Helena?
Helena : He is sestra?
Felix Dawkins : Oh, god.
-
Helena : I want to tell you something.
Detective Art Bell : Yeah.
Helena : These, I like.
[takes donut]
-
Sarah Manning : Helena. You can't do this. You can't.
Helena : Rachel is problem. I fix problem.
Sarah Manning : I wish you could. They've got Felix.
Helena : Brother sestra.
-
Cosima Niehaus : Scott, you're supposed to be my expert on genetic patents, here.
Scott : I just blog about it. Why can't I come work for you on the super-sensitive shit?
Cosima Niehaus : Delphine, why can't Scott come and work with us on the super-sensitive shit?
Delphine Cormier : Because we'd have to kill his family.
-
Sarah Manning : Helena? Don't jump out and scare us with an ax, or some shit.
-
Sarah Manning : If anybody follows us, I'm going to sic Helena on all of you.
-
[first lines]
Dr. Aldous Leekie : Rachel, you don't need to see this.
Rachel Duncan : I demanded to. Now, move.
-
Paul Dierden : Are you asking me if I'm interested or reminding me I have no choice?
Rachel Duncan : It's a promotion, Paul. A very handsome one, if you have the starch for it. Where are you with the new stem-cell line, Aldous?
Dr. Aldous Leekie : My in vitro tests have been very promising. Promising enough to treat Cosima.
Rachel Duncan : Shut down the tests. Until Sarah comes to heel, Cosima will suffer.
-
Kira : Where are you?
Sarah Manning : I'm uh... I'm in a place where bands play.
Kira : What bands?
Sarah Manning : I don't know. Bobby, who's playing tonight?
Bobby : The Shit Goblins.
[whispers]
Bobby : Sorry.
-
Felix Dawkins : Look, Helena, he wants to help you and Sarah.
Helena : He lies down with pigs.
[makes pig noises]
-
Sarah Manning : This was never a game, you stupid twat.
-
Cosima Niehaus : Are you sure this is a good idea?
Delphine Cormier : If he's withholding promising treatment from you, yes.
Cosima Niehaus : He's going to ruin your career, destroy your reputation as a budding lesbian.
-
Helena : A little more off the back, Helena. Yes, Rachel, of course. So pretty, you are. So much money. So much money.
-
Sarah Manning : Professor Ethan Duncan, alive.
Dr. Aldous Leekie : Where?
Sarah Manning : It's vital my brother goes free. All charges dropped.
Dr. Aldous Leekie : Find him, I can pull the levers to countermand Rachel, and guarantee Cosima will be able to continue the treatment.
Sarah Manning : What - what treatment?
Dr. Aldous Leekie : Ah, so you don't share everything.
Sarah Manning : What? What is she sick?
Dr. Aldous Leekie : Unfortunately, yes.
-
Sarah Manning : Right, so how do we find Swan Man?
Helena : Mrs. S has nice truck. Much leg rooms.
Sarah Manning : Helena, where are we going?
Helena : Cold River.
Sarah Manning : What's that, a town?
Helena : The Place of Screams.
-
Rachel Duncan : I'm in need of a new monitor.
Paul Dierden : [Surprised] You have a monitor?
Dr. Aldous Leekie : She did. Daniel.
Rachel Duncan : I've been self-aware since I was a child. I'm not exempt from the program. I simply enjoy a unique vantage, one with privilege.
Dr. Aldous Leekie : She needs full-time personal security. And you submit data to me on her health and well being, like any other subject.
Paul Dierden : Are you asking me if I'm interested or reminding me I have no choice?
-
Felix Dawkins : You do realize I'm going to have to paint this, to come to terms with it.
Sarah Manning : Please don't.
Felix Dawkins : Yeah, you're right. I mean, you shot your evil twin sister dead, only to have her arise and gut Rachel's henchman. How could I capture the nuance?
-
Paul Dierden : Felix will be charged with murder, unless Rachel gets what she wants.
Sarah Manning : So your little trip to Taiwan really paid off. How many clone notches in your belt now, eh, Paul, 3?
-
Dr. Aldous Leekie : I'm going to tell you something that only a handful of people know. Twenty years ago, there was a fire in one of our labs. Several scientists died, reams of data lost, and the original genome was destroyed.
Cosima Niehaus : So all of this secrecy around the original genome is because it doesn't exist?
Dr. Aldous Leekie : Yes. The entire project is essentially an orphan. We lost your prehistory, Cosima, and, with it, all record of several synthetic sequences embedded in your DNA.
Cosima Niehaus : What kind of synthetic sequences?
Dr. Aldous Leekie : The sequences that make you possible. That overcame the viability issues that have haunted us ever since.
Cosima Niehaus : So you lost the map. So finding the sequence in the genome is like looking for hay in a haystack.
-
Dr. Aldous Leekie : Here we go. Just an intradermal test to see how your body responds.
Cosima Niehaus : Yes, if my arm falls off, then we know.
[laughs]
Delphine Cormier : Or if you grow another limb.
Cosima Niehaus : Yeah. Ew.
-
Sarah Manning : So pick some clothes, wash up, and do everything he tells you to.
Helena : [enters the bathroom] Thank you, Felix.
Felix Dawkins : Just don't murder my rubber duckie.
-
Scott : Back in the early '80s, genetics was like the Wild West. No one knew the science. The laws didn't exist, so they slapped provisional patents on everything.
Cosima Niehaus : Like pissing on a fencepost.
