Mondays 9:00 PM on The CWBlack Lightning Season 2 Quotes
Woman: You’re trying to steal my car.
Jennifer: Ma’am, I wasn’t...
[Woman pulls out phone and calls the police]
Woman: Hello, 911. Yes, I caught a woman breaking into my car. She’s African-American. She threatened me! She’s 5’6”.
[Jennifer’s eyes glow and lightning destroys her car]
Woman: Oh my god! What did you do?!
Jennifer: Me?
Woman: Yes!
Jennifer: Your car got hit by lightning. You wanna call the police on God?
Tobias: Give her what she needs.
Todd: Woah, woah, woah. Hey now, is that a good idea? When I looked up Khalil’s three most visited locations, I did a little bit of extra research. And Cutter has some holes in her resume.
Cutter: I’ll slit your throat you little b****!
Tobias: Give her the list.
Todd: Okay, just ... trying to look out for you.
Tobias: I know. And I do really appreciate the initiative, Todd. But you might want to tread lightly around natural-born killers.
Please come home, baby. I know it may seem like running is the right idea, but it isn’t. There's no finish line for you or Khalil if you keep moving. You’ll get hurt ... or worse. Let us help you! Please come back, we’ll help you. I promise! We’re not a family with you, Jenn. Home is not home. We just need you to come back; no one’s mad at you. We just want you home and safe. I love you, Jennifer! I love you.

Jennifer: I can’t. I can’t do this. I’m sorry, but I’m not ready. I didn’t leave home to lose my virginity in a train car like this.
Khalil: Yeah.
Jennifer: I left home to keep you safe, to keep you alive. And I don’t regret that because you are alive. But, I don’t want it to be like this. We’re on the run in a train car, you know? I’m worried. I’m worried about what’s going to happen to you. I’m worried about what’s going to happen to me. I’m worried about what my family’s thinking about.
Khalil: Hey, it’s okay. I will wait.
Khalil: Hey, do you remember that time I asked you to be my girl?
Jennifer: Yeah, how could I forget? You said that if anyone had happened to me, the thought of not being able to ask me out messed with you. Yeah, I remember. You was all shy and cute.
Khalil: Wait ... “was”?!
Jennifer: Don’t worry, you still cute now that we cut off those promoter dreads.
Tobias: Here, I’ve saved you the best seat of the house.
[Todd sits down in between two women and they touch him]
Todd: Oh... oh...
Tobias: Now, if these women aren’t to your liking, I can get you others. Or, if you prefer men?
Todd: No, no, but thank you. I actually prefer to not be touched. That would be my preference.
Tobias: Ladies, you heard the man. Go.
[The ladies get up and leave]
Tobias: This is what they call the good life, Todd. And you better get used to it because that old life doesn’t exist anymore.
Khalil: Hey.
[Jennifer cries and pulls him into a hug]
Jennifer: Thank you, God.
Khalil: Don’t cry.
Jennifer: I thought you were dead.
Khalil: Come on, Jenn. You know you can’t get rid of me that easily.
[They hug and kiss]
Jennifer: I love you.
Khalil: I love you too.
Jennifer: Don’t scare me like that, please. Don’t leave me out here.
Khalil: I got you. It’s okay.
Khalil: I remember when I first saw you.
Jennifer: Are you seriously getting all corny on me right now?
Khalil: No. No, this is a memory I’ll keep for myself. But, I knew then that you were special.
Jennifer: Well, I remember all the girls at Garfield going on and on about “Khalil this” and “Khalil that.” And I’m like, “What the hell is the big deal? Who is this Khalil?!” And then I saw you standing at your locked, and I can’t lie the first thing that popped into my head was, “Well, damn!”
Gambi: Giselle Cutter. Assassin, tracker, world-class martial artist, mercenary for hire.
Jefferson: Is she a meta?
Gambi: There are rumors. People have had her lined up point blank and they’ve missed.
Anissa: She’s bulletproof?!
Gambi: Bullets never hit her. And it’s also been said that she can literally throw knives around corners; that says to me low-level telekinetic.
Jennifer: What the hell, Khalil?!
Khalil: We needed the money.
Jennifer: You said we were making a quick stop, not walking into a damn shootout.
Khalil: Tobias put a reward on my head. Look, I didn’t know. I’m sorry. I’m just trying to keep you from involved.
Jennifer: My involvement? I just had to use my powers in public. I’d say at this point I’m pretty damn involved.
Tobias: Late night. Perhaps what you need is a good read? Always puts me right to sleep.
[He lifts up a book]
Tobias: Moby Dick. One of my favorites.
Nichelle: I guess you’re here to put me to sleep?
[He laughs]
Tobias: Actually, I have a strict “No Mama” rule. I believe a man has to have principles.
Khalil: Look, I’m sorry. Okay, I shouldn’t have yelled at you before.
Jennifer: Yeah, you should be sorry. What the hell was that?
Khalil: I don’t know. Something just came over me, okay? Jenn, the things Tobias did to me ... hitting me ... burning me ... I just didn’t want him to find us. I snapped.
Jennifer: Yeah, well you snap at me like that again, then Tobias is gonna be the last person you’ll have to worry about. I will light your a** up. You need to remember that.
