Quotes
-
John Henry : There is a bible story of two brothers, Cain and Abel. God favored Abel. Cain killed him. God cursed Cain, and ordered him to wander the world alone.
Catherine Weaver : I'm familiar with the story.
John Henry : Which brother am I?
Catherine Weaver : I don't know, John Henry. Perhaps you're neither. Perhaps in this story - you are God.
-
John Henry : What would happen if he knew?
Catherine Weaver : Knew what?
John Henry : That you aren't Savannah's mother? That you aren't anyone's mother?
Catherine Weaver : Are you threatening me, John Henry?
John Henry : I could tell Mr. Ellison.
Catherine Weaver : You could. But that would be unfortunate - mostly for Mr. Ellison.
-
John Henry : Mr. Ellison taught me that human life is sacred.
Catherine Weaver : Sacred? That's an interesting word. Comes from the Latin 'sacrum', much like another word - sacrifice.
John Henry : Sacrifice...
Catherine Weaver : Perhaps it's necessary to sacrifice Savannah for the greater good. The greater good is keeping you safe.
-
Catherine Weaver : Why were you talking to John Henry during class?
Savannah Weaver : I was teaching him the words to a song.
Catherine Weaver : What song?
Savannah Weaver : The one daddy used to sing. I want John Henry to sing it with me.
Catherine Weaver : Maybe I could sing it with you.
Savannah Weaver : You're not a boy, and you can't sing.
-
Catherine Weaver : What you need to understand, Mr. Ellison - what I believe you're beginning to understand - is that when my behavior implies that I value John Henry's survival more than that of my daughter, it is not because I love John Henry more than Savannah. It's because I believe, Savannah's survival may some day depend upon John Henry's survival, and because I believe that your survival may some day depend upon John Henry's survival.

Detective Crayton : Have the two of you argued lately? Had any tension? Any reason he might want to harm you and your family?
Catherine Weaver : Detective, are you suggesting Mr. Ellison may be complicit in the disappearance of my daughter?
Detective Crayton : Well, wouldn't be the first time we've seen an employee tryin' to blackmail the boss.
Catherine Weaver : Well, it would be the first time I had.
Detective Crayton : [indicating Weaver's moray eel] This thing - it eats other eels, huh? 's interesting...
