Prodigal Son
Tuesdays 9:00 PM on FOXProdigal Son Season 2 Episode 7: "Face Value" Quotes
Anyone can be a murderer. Wrong place. Wrong time. An accident. An impulse. But there's another type of killer. For them, murder is an addiction. A bad love they can't quit. Truth is anyone can do it once, but the second kill, that's when the switch is flipped, and a serial killer is born.
Malcolm
Malcolm: So just one murder today?
Dani: What one isn't doing it for ya anymore?
Edrisa: I could keep my ear to the ground if you like.
Malcolm: Actually I could use your help with something. Are you free-
Edrisa: Yes!
JT: He didn't even give a time!
Malcolm: I'll, uh, swing by the lab tonight.
Edrisa: It's a date.
To put it in fun terms, she was botoxed to death.
Edrisa
Darling, not everyone in your life has a nefarious agenda. Only the men you date.
Birdie [to Jessica]
My sister is like a fungal infection.
Jessica
Ainsley: I keep hearing sirens and helicopters.
Malcolm: It's New York there are always sirens and helicopters.
Dani: You know you're terrible at hiding whatever it is you're trying to hide.
Malcolm: It's my sister. She's a little lost at the moment.
Dani: And you're trying to keep it all together.
Malcolm: More like failing miserably.
Dani: Well, as someone who was lost once too, my advice is: be there for her, but don't let her drag you down either.
Malcolm: What if she already has?
Dani: How? Bright, whatever it is, you can tell me.
Malcolm: I'm overthinking it.
Dani: Suddenly I feel super insecure.
Malcolm: That's the point. Plastic surgeons make money on insecurity. Anxiety and dysmorphia is their core business model. In this world, no one can feel good enough even when they're as beautiful as you. Which could be what the killer was trying to tell us... What?
Dani: Nothing.
Dani: I want Donahue to be the bad guy.
Malcolm: Yeah, anyone who says "work hard; play hard" has a coke problem. And he clearly has hegemonic masculinity.
Dani: Is that fancy for toxic?
Malcolm: More or less. That's why he works well with Dr. Chabra, who is complicitly masculine. He will tell us the ugly truth.
Dani: How do we get him to talk?
Malcolm: Easy, we just isolate him with our own alpha males.
Dr. Capshaw: If he dies...
Martin: Just put it on my tab.
Birdie: So Malcolm, I hear you're profiling murderers for the NYPD.
Malcolm: Yes, I'm with Major Crimes.
Birdie: That's quite a demotion from the FBI, isn't it?
Malcolm: Well, if we all took ten years between career attempts the family trust would run dry.
I do not miss drugs.
Dani
