You know one thing Dad was really big about? It was a lesson that he taught us all. One of the first things he taught us. If you wanna test a bond… -You don't really need to break it. You just crack it a little. Now, he put me one rung higher on the ladder than Tammy and he sat back and watched. Cracked, but it didn't break. It did make it stronger.

The Fall of the House of Usher Season 1 Episode 7 Quotes

Roderick: This is it, Freddie. They're all gone, and it's all about to fall apart. So, I need to count on you. And when they call, and they will call, you just don't pick up,that's the best message. And if they corner you in the street,
you tell them, "I'm Frederick Usher, I'm the repository of the hopes and dreams of a fucking empire." "So take your treacherous bullshit elsewhere." Can you do that?
Frederick: I can.

And, strictly speaking, I try to never intervene this directly, but… [chuckles] …the pliers got me thinking.
