Thursdays on Paramount+The Good Fight Season 4 Episode 6: "The Gang Offends Everyone" Quotes
Marissa: So wait did you buy this?
Lucca: Yeah, I wanted one.
Marissa: Everyone wants one, like a yacht or a pony. Oh, it’s the swivel latch. I love the swivel latch.
Lucca: How do you know so much about Birkins?
Marissa: I was raised around rich people.
Diane: What are you doing?
Julius: Calling it.
Diane: Julius, are you serious?
Julius: In Proverbs it is written, “When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers.” It’s what I always believed. Now I just have to enact it.
Judge Brickner: So you’re saying you’re using race because the politics work better for you?
Adrian: That is unfair.
Nia: But true.
Adrian: The DNC came to my office this morning. They asked me – I mean this is bizarre. They want me to run for president. I know, I know.
Charlotte: When?
Adrian: 2024.
Charlotte: Are they crazy?
Adrian: They don’t think I’ll become president. They just want a black person up on stage…
Charlotte: Ah, so they asking a lot of people.
Adrian: You are really cutting into my self-esteem, Charlotte.
David Lee: Where’s the money now?
Lucca: Where is it?
David Lee: Yes, bank account? Cashier’s check? It’s not in your freezer.
Lucca: No, I don’t exactly have it yet.
David Lee: You don’t have it yet?
Lucca: No, not yet. The other people in this game…
David Lee: They’re deadbeats.
Lucca: No, they’re rich. What?
David Lee: Lucca, I work with the rich. They promise everything and give you nothing.
Lucca: That’s not who these women are.
David Lee: Why because they’re rich and powerful. The rich and powerful think their God’s gift because everyone treats them like God’s gift. They get their hotel rooms comped. They get gift rooms where they can take anything. Their meals are bought by everyone else. You already got you million and a half in their smiles and their charms. That’s your winnings.
Visitor: Ah, the two thorns in my side.
Diane: My husband says hello.

Julius: Is that a threat?
Visitor: I’ll be seeing you two.

Associate: Hate isn’t a strategy.
Adrian: This is not hate.
Assistant: You can’t pit women’s rights against trans rights.

We’re sorry that we’ve been away so long. And now we know that what we did was wrong. If it’ll ease your apprehension, we promise not to mention censorship in China in this song. Starting now.
The Good Fight Short
Lucca: I meant to bring it up at dinner.
Bianca: But you didn’t for some reason. I don’t understand what’s going on. Suddenly, you’re tongue-tied and you’re hesitant. I know our friendship is 10 minutes old, but I don’t think this is you.
Lucca: It’s not, usually. I have no trouble talking about my clients’ money, obviously, but my own, it just… it feels wrong.
Bianca: Well, get over it.
Lucca: I don’t think I can. We’re friends and you have this wealth, and it’s uncomfortable to talk about or ask about or anything about.
Bianca: It’s just money.
Lucca: Not to people who don’t have it. Money defines people. I can’t do what you do or go where you go or buy what you buy. That’s the great divide, and it’s hard to get over.
Bianca: I’m on your side.
Lucca: I know, and I want to be one yours.
Ain’t science great? I’m sitting up here, listening to doctors give expert testimony about things I barely understand, and just because I’m wearing this black nightgown, I get to decide which girl’s heart gets broken. I mean does anybody else want this job because I sure as hell don’t.
