Quotes 

• Dylan Bennett : I know you haven't been sleeping, babe. Maybe, uh, we should go to the doctor and get some pills.

  Sarah Bennett : I can't take pills, Dylan.

  Dylan Bennett : Well, you gotta do something.

  Sarah Bennett : I just keep thinking... you know, what if I'm next?

  Dylan Bennett : Sarah.

  Sarah Bennett : This all happened when we came back to town. You don't think I might be a target?

  Dylan Bennett : Listen. This guy's crazy. I don't know what to think. Nobody does, okay?

• Sgt. Cam Henry : So when I finished my shift, I drove by to check in on things on my way home, and I found Constable Sharma on the ground, out cold.

  Dylan Bennett : Okay, what about the phone call?

  Chief Iain Vaughn : We traced the number to Verna McBride's cell. Phone was missing at the murder scene.

  Brenda Merritt : So, then it's the Executioner for sure.

  Chief Iain Vaughn : This is not the Executioner. This is whoever killed Mrs. McBride.

  Dylan Bennett : Stop bullshitting and just call it what it is.

  Sgt. Cam Henry : Dylan, you're upset.

  Dylan Bennett : Yeah, I'm upset, man. He was in our house.

  Sarah Bennett : I can't stay here.

  Brenda Merritt : All right, that's it. Let's hit the road. Let's go.

  Dylan Bennett : Brenda, can you please, for once, can you just...

  Brenda Merritt : Dylan, I am so tired of biting my tongue and worrying about your...

  Dylan Bennett : Really? When have you ever done either of those things? I don't think I was there.

• Dylan Bennett : You know, and after last night, Sarah wants to get the hell out of here. And frankly, I don't blame her.

  Alison Sutherland : Okay. If I was in Sarah's shoes, I'd be on the next flight to Australia, or some remote island and as far away from here as possible.

  Dylan Bennett : Thank you.

  Alison Sutherland : So, I get it.

  Dylan Bennett : Thank you.

  Alison Sutherland : But... you have to understand what you're giving up.

  Dylan Bennett : What do you mean?

  Alison Sutherland : [showing him her laptop]  Have you see this? The story you wrote about Heather after her arrest? It's been picked up by every major news agency in this country. Right now, this story is sitting on page five or six of the nationals. Couple of strange murders in a town nobody's heard of, it's interesting. One more murder and I promise you, we hit critical mass. Boom.

  Dylan Bennett : It sounds like you want the Executioner to strike again.

  Alison Sutherland : Murders sell papers. Serial killers make careers. This kind of story, of opportunity, only comes once in a journalist's career, if they're lucky. But... Sarah comes first. I'll respect whatever decision you make.

• Chief Iain Vaughn : Ladies and gentlemen, an autopsy was performed on Mr. Faysal yesterday. The cause of death...

  Jana Singer : Jana Singer, from the Collinwood Expositor. Why would Heather Peterson kill him? Do you have a motive?

  Chief Iain Vaughn : We have evidence from an eyewitness of a personal vendetta towards Mr. Faysal over a business transaction. We also recovered a large quantity of rat poison at the Peterson residence.

  Dylan Bennett : What other evidence do you have connecting Heather to Verna's murder?

  Chief Iain Vaughn : That investigation is still ongoing.

  Jana Singer : Yeah, 'cause I'm having a hard time figuring out why she would chop up an old woman into a bunch of little pieces.

  Chief Iain Vaughn : I want to assure the citizens of Waterbury and its many visitors that this was not random, and we do not expect any more violence. Thank you very much.

  Jana Singer : [to herself]  Unbelievable.

  Sarah Bennett : You know, she's right. What if Heather's...

  Dylan Bennett : Stop, babe. Babe, you gotta stop. Okay? You're gonna drive yourself crazy.

  Sarah Bennett : If they're wrong, then the Executioner is still out there.

• Dylan Bennett : Hello, this is the cell phone of Dylan Bennett. Please leave a message.

  Sarah Bennett : Dylan, it's Sarah. I swear, your wife is losing it. I nearly broke a customer's nose today and turned him into a eunuch and he wound up buying six paintings off me, so... yeah. Um... listen, I-I know Cam has got a guy outside, but I would feel so much better if you were here, too. So, you know, come home soon. I miss you.

• Dylan Bennett : Alison wants two weeks' notice. Yeah. Like, a minimum two weeks.

  Sarah Bennett : You're not coming.

  Dylan Bennett : No, I'm gonna come. I just, I can't come right now.

  Sarah Bennett : Okay. When?

  Dylan Bennett : Well, the hope is that Chief Vaughn will actually get off his ass and catch the killer, right? So nobody has to go anywhere.

  Sarah Bennett : Dylan, we have more than just a mouse problem or a moldy basement.

  Dylan Bennett : I know. I know. And I know you're upset. I get it. You want me to come with you. I want to get out of here, too. Trust me. But I signed a contract. Okay? She could sue me. So I don't really know what to do here.

  Sarah Bennett : You... you don't know what to do. You-You could tell Alison to shove her two weeks' notice up her ass! Okay?

  Dylan Bennett : Two weeks, max. And if she finds a replacement before then, I'm gonna be with you, I promise.

• Dylan Bennett : Well, it was a beautiful service. Robin can take a little comfort in knowing that Justin was loved by a lot of people. He'll be missed.

  Sarah Bennett : Jesus. You make it sound like a popularity contest.
