tw disordered eating, alcohol, gendered slurs, violence

you look important… or at least your suit does.

statements like that can get you into a lot of trouble around here.

make yourself comfortable, why don’t you. 

you’re wasting your time. i haven’t seen him for 18 years.

if i had 15 minutes, we’d drink tea, eat biscuits; i’d talk, you’d laugh, and we’d be on our way.

are they still following us?

when you hear something that sounds like a gunshot, drive.

you can’t be serious.

excuse me dear, i just need to use your back door.

hug me.

what’s that? it smells like feet.

how long was your prison sentence?

don’t ever make the calamitous error of mistaking my deliberate short-sightedness for blindness.

look at ‘em. merrily oblivious as we labor tirelessly to save them from extinction and not even a ‘thank-you.’

don’t kill your partner on your first day.

i’m sure you understand humiliation better than most.

my woman would never wear anything like that.

smoothly done.

you can’t put a paco rabanne belt on a patou.

and remember… take it like a pussy.

not very good at this whole ‘subtlety’ thing, are you?

either you start to look like you know what you’re doing, or i’m out of here.

would you like a bigger glass?

no fun dancing by yourself; i need a partner.

don’t you make me put you over my knee.

so you don’t want to dance… but you do want to wrestle.

i like my women strong.

now we are engaged. again.

i am neither a goat, nor your sister, so… get your hands off me.

i think he’s an athletic, good-looking gazillionaire, who’s offered me a job and made advances towards me.

i quite like him.

i don’t know what you’re upset about, you’re not even my fiance!

the thing is… i work better alone.

i’m not leaving.

and what, exactly, did you do to him?

just shut up and watch me work.

you’re trembling.

it’s going to be okay.

i’ll be close by.

help yourself to a drink.

so sorry to keep you waiting.

i thought i was doing so well.

the fault doesn’t lie in your performance.

she seemed so innocent.

i’m so sorry i can’t stay to finish you off myself.

man has only two masters in this world, and their names are pain and fear.

i never thought i’d say this, but i’m actually quite pleased to see you.

it’s okay. i would have done exactly the same thing in your position.
