YOU
Thursdays on NetflixYOU Season 1 Episode 1: "Pilot" Quotes
Beck: At the end of the day people really are disappointing, aren't they?
Joe: Sometimes they surprise you.
A guy needs to protect himself. I had to make sure you're safe, and your name was a glorious place to start. Not a lot of Guinevere Becks. And there you were, every account sent to public. You want to be seen, heard, known, and of course, I obliged.
Joe Voiceover
Born and raised Nantucket Island. A brother Clyde and sister Anya. Your parents really were assholes about the names. Your folks split when you were 12. Your dad dropped out of the picture.
Went to Brown where you majored in Lit. Cool. And minored in douchebags. Eh. And then on to NYC to conquer an MFA, and make your mark presumably. Now you still write, barely. Too busy living out moments you won't remember five years from now. I know this because you post about this life all the goddamn time. Candidly, it's the least appealing thing about you, Beck.
You posted this hours after our encounter. I was concerned. You didn't mention that cute guy in the bookstore, and then I realized, your online life isn't real. It's a collage. You paste this Beck up. This together, lovable, cute, bendy little creature. If anything, the fact that you didn't share me with your followers only confirms we really connected.

The next thing our little friendly internet gave me was your address. There it is with its big naked windows ... Jesus, it's like you've never seen a horror movie or the news. But you want people to watch, don't you? You know I plan on asking you about this quality when we get to know each other better.
Joe Voiceover
Uh, Beck, who the fuck is this?
Joe Voiceover [after Beck's boyfriend shows up]
You actually managed to connect your illicit blowjob to curing cancer. I'm genuinely impressed.
Beck
The hair -- the privilege he tries to hide with retweets of Black Lives Matter. Not to sound judgy, but this guy is everything wrong with America. See, this is why I do my research. You fall for the wrong men -- bad men. You let them in. You let them hurt you.
Joe Voiceover
It looks good on you by the way; the extra weight.
Benji [to Beck]
The most valuable things in life are usually the most helpless, so they need people like us to protect them.
Joe
There are scary people in the world, Beck. That's why it's important to be safe, and why I have to do what I'm about to do.
Joe Voiceover
Your friends are disloyal, and that Peach is the worst.
Joe Voiceover
The first step to fixing something is knowing that no matter how destroyed it seems, it can always be saved.
Joe
