KNIVES OUT (2019) SENTENCE STARTERS
โย Anything you need. Youโre part of this family. โ
โย Kids today, with the internet. Itโs amazing. โ
โย I read a tweet about a New Yorker article about you. โ
โย Iโm here at the behest of a client. โ
โย You will find me a respectful, quiet, passive observer of the truth. โ
โย Are you baiting me? โ
โย You think I am dumb enough to be baited into talking family business. โ
โย This is not how I wanted to have this conversation. โ
โย Heโs always been the black sheep of the family. โ
โย Are you, goddamn, insane? โ
โย You tell her or I will! โ
โย I know itโll hurt, but itโs all for the best. โ
โย I expect itโs going to be about something, if not extraordinary, then at least interesting. โ
โย Does having a kind heart make you a good nurse? โ
โย Just the thought of lying, yeah, it makes me puke. โ
โย Have you seen her insta? Sheโs an influencer. โ
โย Can I wait inside? I feel like I shouldnโt be here. โ
โย So, somebody suspects foul play.ย โ
โย It makes no damn sense. Compels me though. โ
โย I donโt know why we keep going over this. โ
โย Physical evidence can tell a clear story with a forked tongue. โ
โย Can you just take your goddamn medicine and go to bed? โ
โย You really love drama, huh? โ
โย Why canโt I beat you at this game? โ
โย Such a bad loser you are. โ
โย Thereโs so much of me in that kid. โ
โย Playing life like a game without consequence, until you canโt tell the difference between a stage prop and a real knife. โ
โย I donโt fear death. โ
โย I donโt fear death. But, oh God, Iโd like to fix some of this before I go. โ
โย Hey. You had a long day. You wanna do drugs? โ
โย You know, this is an interesting and efficient method of murder. I need to write this down. โ
โย There is no time, you have to listen! โ
โย If what you said is true, Iโm gone, thereโs no saving me. โ
โย But you have to do exactly what I tell you. โ
โย Will you do this? This last thing. For me. โ
โย What do you want me to do? โ
โย It sounds crazy, but it will work. โ
โย Donโt lie. Tell fragments of the truth. โ
โย I keep waiting for the big reveal, where it all makes sense. Wouldnโt that be nice? โ
โย Jesus, Iโm gonna disappear until the politics talk is done. โ
โย Something is afoot with this whole affair. I know it, and I believe you know it too. โ
โย I trust your kind heart. โ
โย Be it cruel or comforting, this machine unerringly arrives at the truth. โ
โย You do as I say and everything will be just fine. โ
โย Best judge of character is a dog. โ
โย I donโt feel like talking. Iโm distraught. โ
โย People grieve in different ways. โ
โย I donโt know what any of that means. โ
โย Now, you heard something. Spill it. โ
โย Maybe this might finally make you grow up. โ
โย This might be the best thing that could ever happen to you. โ
โย Nothing good is ever easy. โ
โย Matter of fact - eat shit, howโs that? โ
โย The game is afoot, eh Watson? โ
โย Please accept it with grace and without bitterness. But do accept it. โ
โย You little bitch! โ
โย Did you know about this? Were you in this from the beginning? โ
โย Were you boinking my father? โ
โย In the meantime Iโd maybe run. โ
โย Iโm not on Twitter anymore. โ
โย You look like youโre gonna pass out. Have you eaten anything today? โ
โย I know I shouldnโt say this out loud, but when he told me, Iโฆ Jesus, I coulda killed him. โ
โย Tell me everything. โ
โย There is much that remains unclear. โ
โย I suspect foul play. โ
โย I have eliminated no suspects. โ
โย Youโve come this far. Let me help you go all the way. โ
โย Whatโs going on? This isnโt you. โ
โย You should do whatever you think is right. โ
โย You have to make things right. โ
โย I want you to know Iโm gonna take care of you. โ
โย You lay low for a couple of days. Wait for this investigation to blow over, and it will. โ
โย Why is grief the providence of youth? โ
โย Iโd imagine that age deepens all feelings. Including grief. โ
โย One thing I assume of age is weariness. Damned if I donโt get more tired every day. โ
โย I think you have something you wanna tell me. โ
โย I donโt like any of this. โ
โย What kind of blackmail scheme is this? โ
โย You regret helping me yet? โ
โย Oh my God. Iโm just pure adrenaline right now, I feel like I swallowed bees. โ
โย That was the dumbest car chase of all time. โ
โย Strange case from the start. โ
โย Listen, I donโt know what you want. Whatever it is, we can work it out. โ
โย I donโt want any more surprises. โ
โย God, youโre not much of a detective, are you? โ
โย You make a pretty lousy murderer. โ
โย Youโre a pack of vultures at the feast. โ
โย Is anybody else confused? โ
โย Iโm so sorry. I told them everything, I figured it was up. Iโm sorry. โ
โย You shared a love of twisting the knife into one another. โ
โย Iโm warning you! โ
โย You wonโt get away with this. โ
โย A twisted web. And we are not finished untangling it. Not yet. โ
โย This is stoopid with two oโs. โ
โย You donโt have a shred of evidence. Youโre just spinning a fairy tale. โ
โย In for a penny, in for a pound. โ
โย I knew you were a no good son of a bitch! โ
โย And then youโll see just how much hell I can wreak on your life. โ
โย You vicious little bitch! โ
โย I want you to remember something thatโs very important: you won not by playing the game his way, but yours. โ
โย Youโre a good person. โ
โย I have my own opinion. But I have a feeling youโll follow your heart. โ
