Marlena: So why did you go through all that just to throw it in the trash?
Stevano: What do you mean?
Marlena: You have a new face, new body. Yet you're still committing crimes. Prison is prison, you know. They don't care what vessel you're in.
Stevano: It was a risk. I could have taken over Steve's life, lived as a law-abiding citizen. But that would never satisfy me. My wants are too powerful.
Marlena: What do you want?
Stevano: The one thing I have always wanted, that I have always wanted to possess since I first set foot in Salem. You, Marlena. My Queen of the Night.
