Killing Eve
Sundays 8:00 PM on BBC AmericaKilling Eve Quotes
Villanelle: She shot you?
Eve and Konstantin: Yes.
Eve: Barely. Just in the hand.
Konstantin: That is an extremely painful place!
Eve: Where are you going?
Villanelle: I'm done with you.
Konstantin: So Helene? You want to kill her?
Villanelle: Yes. Helene first, and then the rest of them. You know, I tried killing other people’s assholes, but charity begins at home.
People like us aren’t made for happy lives with happy endings. We never were.

Eve: I went to Helene’s. She let Villanelle out of prison.
Yusuf: So you thought, “child abduction.”
Helene: You know, when I first learned you were after me, I thought you were a bit…what’s the word…pathetic? I thought, there is someone who spends her life peering at more exotic specimens. Like a bird watcher desperate to fly. First Villanelle, then me.
Eve: You think too highly of yourself.
Carolyn: Isn’t it refreshing? To eat in silence? So many people are just bags of gas, expelling air when they have nothing of great worth to say.
Villanelle: Just farting from their mouths.
Helene: Do you know what passion is? People think it’s sex, excitement, but the actual definition of passion is to suffer. That’s what it is about Villanelle, isn’t it?
Eve: You love this, don’t you? It delights you.
Helene: I think it delights you. This is what you want.
Your brain is like a hamster on a wheel. It must be exhausting.
Helene
A wrench? Oh, come on. You’re more inventive than that.
Carolyn
Eve: Do you know that fable about the scorpion and the frog?
Villanelle: They hook up?
Eve: No. They both die, because the scorpion can’t change its nature.
Villanelle: Maybe you’re the scorpion.
Villanelle: I killed two people last night after I tried really hard not to.
Martin: Okay, that’s not ideal, but presumably common for you.
