Never Let Me Go (2015)

Scarlett Hefner: Nora Hildegard

Quotes 

• Caroline Forbes : [when she comes to, she is dangling by her wrists from a chain, the tips of her toes - in slippered feet - barely touching the floor]  What did you do to me?

  Mary Louise : What Lorenzo should have done. Vervain.

  [holds up vial] 

  Caroline Forbes : [gasps]  It hurts.

  Mary Louise : Yes. My family ran a slaughterhouse when I was growing up. It was all well and good until they found out I was a siphoning freak of nature. Then they were more than happy to hang me with the cattle. So, been there, sister. Just be happy I didn't hang you by your feet like we do with the cows.

  Caroline Forbes : What do you want from me?

  Mary Louise : [turns around]  We have a burial to go to. My girlfriend thinks her outfit has to be fashion forward. I disagree.

  [chuckles] 

  Mary Louise : What do you think?

  [calls out:] 

  Mary Louise : Nora! Show us.

  [to her captive:] 

  Mary Louise : Help us and perhaps I can find a small stool for you to stand on.

  Nora Hildegard : [approaching]  I feel silly.

  [not seen yet] 

  Mary Louise : I'm sure you're *beautiful*, my love.

  Nora Hildegard : Nobody wears this anymore.

  [not seen yet] 

  Mary Louise : You wore that dress to Queen Victoria's funeral. It's stunning.

  [Nora steps into the room, the dress is archaic, to say the least, and Caroline chuckles] 

  Mary Louise : See?

  [Nora flees back, and Mary Louise glowers at Caroline] 

  Mary Louise : I asked for advice, not mockery.

  Caroline Forbes : Yeah, well, you should listen to your girlfriend, because that dress...

  [sighs] 

  Caroline Forbes : Look. My best friend used to live here. She had good style. And I'm sure that a couple of her dresses are in a closet somewhere.

  Mary Louise : I'm curious.

  [holds up sharp eyebrow pencil] 

  Mary Louise : What do you think of this color?

  Caroline Forbes : [tries to hide her fear]  It's great... actually. Super vivid. It will really make your eyes pop.

  Mary Louise : [brings the sharp point of the eyebrow pencil dangerously close to Caroline's eye]  Do you think it will make your eyes pop?

  [Caroline struggles not to even blink, until Mary Louise finally relents] 

  Mary Louise : Don't you ever embarrass my girlfriend again...!

  [sticks the pencil into Caroline's flesh] 

• Caroline Forbes : [Nora comes into the room wearing one of Elena's dresses for the funeral; she had heard this one is even worse, so better to appease her:]  Cute.

  Nora Hildegard : Mm. Thanks.

  [leaves, and dangling Caroline slumps]
