MOTHERLAND: FORT SALEM, 2x09-2x10
starters from episodes 9 & 10 of season 2 of the show motherland: fort salem.
โwhere have you been?โ
โyou killed someoneโฆ?โ
โjustify and rationalize all you want. but violence is not our way.โ
โthey think weโre animals that can be slaughtered.โ
โyou donโt have to do this, (name). if you donโt feel comfortable.โ
โwipe out one, wipe out one hundred, you canโt kill an idea.โ
โwe should talk about the lines youโve crossed in order to make that โgoodโ happen.โ
โhow do you propose we move forward?โ
โi honestly donโt know what else i was expecting to see when you said itโs a โmushroom wallโ.โ
โi guess they think iโm most useful as a recruiting tool.โ
โthatโs not the whole story.โ
โand you donโt care that nobodyโs gonna know the truth?โ
โone way or another, this was always going to end with my death.โ
โi know how much it hurts to believe in someone and find out that person isnโt who you thought they were.โ
โthis whole messed up system needs to change.โ
โwe have to stop fighting each other and start fighting the real enemy before itโs too late.โ
โyou cannot imagine what iโve seen.โ
โall the horrorโฆ all the gloryโฆ gone. for good.โ
โiโm human. somewhere along the way i think you forgot you are too.โ
โyou have done our family proud.โ
โwith all due respect, we canโt wait any longer for the fight to come to us.โ
โone of us wasnโt walking out of that room, and we/i needed you to live.โ
โis this where we go when we die?โ
โthey gave me this gift. and iโm not gonna let anybody tell me how to use it.โ
โstop pretending like you donโt keep tabs on me.โ
โyouโre welcome to stay on as long as youโd like.โ
โwould you mind going for a walk? thereโs something iโd like to show you.โ
โi donโt want to hurt you.โ
โyouโre going to have to. unless you want to tell everyone why weโre really here.โ
โthe world needs to know why they did what they did.โ
โthatโs just what they want. for us to keep killing each other while they sit back and watch.โ
โthey should pay for their crimes. but not like this.โ
โi was worried that i was leaving you unprepared for the future, but you are more ready to face it than i ever was.โ
โdonโt make the same mistakes i have.โ
โare you okay? consideringโฆ everything thatโs happening?โ
โdid we just change the world?โ
โyou should go. just leave me a weapon so i can take down some of these bastards with me.โ
โwe fight. until our very last breath.โ
โi just wanted to pop by and pay my respects beforeโฆ the inevitable.โ
โare we going to have a problem?โ
โare you gonna teach me that?โ
โoh, iโm so glad youโre safe.โ
โi justโฆ i didnโt want you to worry.โ
โiโm always going to worry about you, (name).โ
โduring the attackโฆ i kept thinking that i might never see you again. and that was the worst part of it.โ
โweโve never needed words. all these years, weโve just always known. and now that i need the words, they wonโt comeโฆโ
โi donโt know how to do this - any of it - without you.โ
โyou told me to follow the truth, no matter where it led. but i donโt think either of us imagined it would lead us here.โ
โi donโt need โperhapsโ. i need answers.โ
โyou were supposed to keep them safe.โ
โthat was not an easy call to make. and it will haunt your days. but it was the right call to make.โ
โthey looked at meโฆ right in the eyes. they were so, so scaredโฆ and they begged me in that last moment, they-โ
โcan you lighten up for one minute?โ
โiโll get a martyrโs death. iโm just sorry itโs not going to end so well for you.โ
โnow theyโre gonna turn you into a monster for it. watch.โ
โhave we played a part in something awful?โ
โi was trying to change things. but weโve stepped so far backโฆโ
โseeing that man, about to murder youโฆ something broke in me. and it wonโt go back together.โ
โitโs no crime to defend yourself. or those you love.โ
โi donโt want to run anymore. i want to stand and fight.โ
โyou just keep getting better.โ
โi think i was rather convincing, donโt you?โ
