Quotes

• Daniel: Sorry.
  Reed: Oh, you will be. That's the thing, señor. My brother? He's the nice one. But when he cuts me loose... I'm gonna take that daughter of yours apart.
  Daniel: In my time, I've known men who inspire fear. Do you know what they have in common? They never say how frightening they are.
• Travis: I have a son. He watches me, waiting to see how I'll face it - the violence. I tried so hard not to be part of it. I knew it would change me, and that he'd see it. I can't tell you what you want to hear. I'm no better than the man that cut the rope. I cut the rope. What you did to that boy, I did the same... to my son's mother. So I know what it costs. It cost a part of me. How do I get that part back?
  Alex: You don't.
  Travis: I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, for all of this. We can... We can be more than what we've become, can't we?
  Alex: I don't know.
  Travis: Wait. What happens to you?
  Alex: Connor said he could use me. People don't use me.
• Ofelia: I think I'm actually starting to get used to this.
  Nick: Please don't.
  Ofelia: It's what we do now - spill blood, clean it up, spill it again.
