Rabbit Hole
Sundays on Paramount+Rabbit Hole Season 1 Episode 8: "Ace In the Hole" Quotes
He'll build the country he's always wanted, ruled over by a privileged few. And create a permanent underclass. Women in the home, homosexuals in the closet, or better still, buried in the ground. It's a world of a hundred years ago, this world. God help us all.
Ben
You said Jo Madi was honest, so I gave her some information to prove what was going on, and I, I asked her to arrest you, to take you off the street so you could be safe.
Hailey
Everything's a lie. My, my marriage. My death. Even me being alive. It's all made up. I don't know what's real. I killed someone.

Ben: This country is not yours to take.
Crowley: I already took it.
John: My father used to try and tell me that the people who you cared about most will be your greatest weakness. If someone was coming after you, they'd be the way in.
Crowley: You should have listened to your father.
John: Now, that's not the first time I ever heard that. Now you've got 'em, and there's nothing I can do about it. You've been waiting for this for a long time, and I'm in no position to beg or ask, but I would be really grateful if you would consider letting my ex-wife go. She's not a part of this.
Crowley: I'm not letting her go. She obviously still means something to you, and that's the point.
John: She doesn't know anything.
Crowley: What is your play here? Wasting time? For what, exactly? It's over.
John: My wife left me because she was kidnapped by one of my competitors. They threatened to kill her if I didn't do everything that they asked. They even sent me part of her finger to make their point.
Ben: The fuck's he saying? What's he on about?
John: So I had to hire a pro to get her back. A real badass. And it worked, but she never talked to me again.
Crowley: None of this matters.
John: You may be right about that. You see, 'cause the woman you've got isn't my ex-wife. She's the person I sent in to get her, so good luck with that, motherfucker.
Ben: What the blue bloody fuck was that?!
John: Yeah, sorry about that.
Ben: I suppose you kept me in the dark because you felt up to now you couldn't trust me, yes?
John: No, I was playing the narrative to the bitter end, just like you taught me. Besides, you've got him now. He's all yours.
Ben: [receives a gun from badass] John, that's the nicest thing anyone's ever done for me.
John: Well, that's kind of sad, Dad. But you're welcome.
