- Kilgrave: We can go about our business. Move along. Move along.
- Jessica Jones: Obi-Wan Kenobi?
- Kilgrave: But cooler.
- Mrs. Elizabeth De Luca: [about Jessica] She was the strangest tomboy. She wore princess dresses with high tops.
- Kilgrave: Really? I can't get her to wear a dress for the life of me.
- Jessica Jones: I'll wear one to your funeral.
- Kilgrave: We used to do a lot more than just touch hands.
- Jessica Jones: Yeah. It's called rape.
- Kilgrave: What? Which part of staying in five star hotels, eating in all the best places, doing whatever the hell YOU wanted is rape?
- Jessica Jones: The part where I didn't want to do any of it! Not only did you physically rape me but you violated every cell in my body and every thought in my goddamn head.
- Kilgrave: That was not what I was trying to do.
- Jessica Jones: It doesn't matter what you were trying to do. You raped me again and again!
- Kilgrave: How am I supposed to know? Huh? I never know if someone is doing what they want or what I tell them to!
- Jessica Jones: Oh, poor you.
- Kilgrave: You have no idea, do you? I have to painstakingly choose every word I say. I once told a man to go screw himself. Can you even imagine?
- Kilgrave: I've had Chef Bouchard prepare your favorite meal, Pasta Amatriciana.
- Jessica Jones: That's *your* favorite meal. Now it makes me nauseous. I'll be having a liquid dinner.
- [Holds up wine glass]
- Jessica Jones: You've killed more people as an afterthought.
- Kilgrave: I've never killed anyone.
- Jessica Jones: You use your powers to compel murder.
- Kilgrave: Oh, tomato, to-mah-to. What matters is you saved my life. You do care for me.
- Jessica Jones: just can't handle another death on my conscience. Even if it's yours. You'd know the feeling, if you had a conscience.
- Kilgrave: I have a conscience. It's just more selective.
- Jessica Jones: Do your actions ever haunt you?
- Kilgrave: Before I met you, I rarely dwelled on anything.
- Jessica Jones: Not even Hope's family? I mean, how would you feel if someone forced you to off your parents?
- Kilgrave: Wouldn't have to force me.
- Jessica Jones: You can't kill him.
- Kilgrave: No, but he can kill himself. The man's clearly insane. He is never gonna be a productive member of society.
- Jessica Jones: That is not for you to decide.
- Kilgrave: He will go to prison and feed off the tit of the taxpayers.
- Jessica Jones: You've never paid a goddamn tax in your life.
- Kilgrave: Fair enough,
- Jeri Hogarth: I'm sorry.
- Wendy Ross-Hogarth: Well, I'm going to have to ask you to say that with cash.
- Jessica Jones: Laurent, Alva, dinner's up!
- Kilgrave: Do they need to eat with us?
- Jessica Jones: First step in heroism, don't be a prick.
- Wendy Ross-Hogarth: Even when we were dating, everyone wanted to know what I saw in you.
- Jeri Hogarth: Then why did you marry me?
- Wendy Ross-Hogarth: Because you were kind to me. You were a bastard to everyone else, and you were kind to *me*. I was special.
- Jeri Hogarth: Well, I liked you.
- Trish Walker: You're abandoning her.
- Will Simpson: No, I'm getting out of her way. Both of us should get out of her way.
