Quotes
-
Vivian Johnson : [finding hidden drugs in Natasha's room] I take it you had no idea about these.
Yelena Tzetcovich : No. What's that?
Vivian Johnson : Drugs.
Yelena Tzetcovich : What does this mean?
Vivian Johnson : Where there are drugs, there's usually drug dealers.
-
Yelena Tzetcovich : I think it's strange she would lie to me.
Vivian Johnson : No, she's a teenager.
Yelena Tzetcovich : If I would known about Shane, I never would have allowed it.
Vivian Johnson : And that's why she lied to you.
-
Martin Fitzgerald : [overhearing Viv on the phone] Everything all right?
Vivian Johnson : [tersely] Uh-huh.
Martin Fitzgerald : Care to talk about it?
Vivian Johnson : It's Reggie. It's like every year, it gets harder. What, with the acting out, the talking back. Last week, he called me a bitch.
Martin Fitzgerald : Uh-oh. What'd you do?
Vivian Johnson : I almost hit him. I don't know what to do.
Martin Fitzgerald : Not that it's any consolation, imagine how much harder it would be if he was making a million bucks a year.
Vivian Johnson : Harder on him or harder on me?
Martin Fitzgerald : Good question.
-
Vivian Johnson : If I have to look at one more bearded, 40ish, scary-looking Russian guy, I'm gonna blow my brains out.
Jack Malone : Yeah, I know.
Vivian Johnson : How'd you learn to speak Russian, anyhow?
Jack Malone : A busboy at the Russian Tea Room.
Vivian Johnson : Hmm. Learn something new about you every day.
Jack Malone : Yeah, I know. It's a lot of fun, isn't it?
-
Danny Taylor : Check this out. Our tech found this buried in the hard drive of Natasha's computer. It's from that guy that keeps stalking her, Ivan Breznev?
Vivian Johnson : That's Yelena.
Danny Taylor : Mm-hmm. That has to be Natasha, right? There's Dmitry in the background. There's a message in Russian.
Jack Malone : It says "look closely."
Danny Taylor : Now, imagine him with a beard.
-
Vivian Johnson : This is the man who's been stalking her. He's been going by the name of Ivan Breznev.
Yelena Tzetcovich : [recognizing him] I thought he was dead.
Vivian Johnson : Who is he?
Yelena Tzetcovich : His name is Aleksander Denisovich. He is Natasha's real father.
-
Samantha Spade : Okay, that was Damon Whitmore. He's at the hospital. He went to get a cup of coffee, Shane grabbed his keys, took off.
Vivian Johnson : When?
Samantha Spade : Five minutes ago.
Vivian Johnson : Maybe Natasha somehow got in contact with him.
Samantha Spade : That kid doesn't even know how to drive, Viv.
Vivian Johnson : They were dreaming of going to Mexico, right? Well, now they've got the money.
Samantha Spade : I'll call the airports.
Vivian Johnson : Mm-mm. She doesn't have her passport, but I bet they were planning on driving.
Samantha Spade : Driving to Mexico? Come on.
-
Vivian Johnson : Do you know what you put your parents through?
Natasha Tzetcovich : Why don't you people just leave me alone?
Vivian Johnson : Because we care about you. Your parents care about you. Don't give up on them, Natasha.
Natasha Tzetcovich : What?
Vivian Johnson : I know they seem as if they're out of touch. I've met them, and they kind of are. But they love you, and that's a lot. Give them a chance.
Natasha Tzetcovich : I have.
Vivian Johnson : Give them another one.
Natasha Tzetcovich : I can't.
Vivian Johnson : You can.
-
Yelena Tzetcovich : You know, I keep wondering... why Natasha didn't tell us Aleksander has contacted her. Why?
Vivian Johnson : Maybe she thought you lied to her. I think it's kind of a rebellion.
Yelena Tzetcovich : Rebellion against what? We tried so hard to make her life normal.
Vivian Johnson : I don't think there's a single teenager out there that thinks their family's normal, and the more you try and make it seem that way, the more she thinks she's going nuts.
Yelena Tzetcovich : Still doesn't explain... why she runs off with this crazy boy.
Vivian Johnson : Running off with a boy that no one wants you to be with?
