Impawster Syndrome (2022)

Justin Kelly: Jesse Mills

Quotes 

• Jesse Mills : I wanted to get through this CCTV footage first.

  Sarah Truong : The getaway car.

  Charlie Hudson : Looks a bit like yours.

  Jesse Mills : Wouldn't that be my luck?

  Sup. Joseph Donovan : There's our man.

  Sarah Truong : Is there something you want to tell us, Jesse?

  Jesse Mills : That's not me.

  Sup. Joseph Donovan : I mean that looks just like you. And your stolen car!

  Jesse Mills : No. No no, no way. Okay, first of all, the license plates aren't visible. So there's no way to tell that it's mine and also there are a lot of these sedans out there.

  Sarah Truong : You've got to admit it's a pretty big coincidence.

  Jesse Mills : Guys. Seriously, you don't think I actually did this, do you? Guys.

  Sup. Joseph Donovan : Oh, you should see your face. Come on. Of course we don't think it's you.

  Charlie Hudson : That's uncanny. You've got a doppelganger.

• Sup. Joseph Donovan : I've still got to contact Internal Affairs about this.

  Sarah Truong : Oh, I should probably test your shoes against the print from the scene.

  Jesse Mills : Should I be worried?

  Sarah Truong : No no. It's only to rule you out.

  Jesse Mills : I mean no, with Internal Affairs?

  Sup. Joseph Donovan : No, it's just protocol at this point, you know? We've got to be transparent with optics.

• Sup. Joseph Donovan : So, Jesse, I'm going to need you to take a step back from the investigation. Just until we can officially rule you out.

  Jesse Mills : Well, what happened to "Of course we know it wasn't you"?

  Sup. Joseph Donovan : Nothing. Nothing. It's either this or IA takes over the case because of the "perceived conflict of interest".

• Jesse Mills : Hey, am I being replaced?

• Sup. Joseph Donovan : So, Jesse, like she said, this is just temporary. Okay? But I will need your badge and pass card.

  Jesse Mills : Okay. This isn't a step back. This is a complete ban from the station. I mean you can't be serious! Okay, well, I mean, I guess you're going to tell me that I can't leave town, huh?

• Charlie Hudson : I'm just trying to forget that we're talking about Jesse and focus on the evidence.

  Sarah Truong : Yeah. And?

  Charlie Hudson : Well, I mean it doesn't look good.

  Sarah Truong : Yeah, sure. Maybe with a purely objective eye but I mean this is Jesse. We know he didn't do this and we can explain the dye on the shoes.

  Charlie Hudson : Well, unless he walked through it at the scene to hide the fact that he stepped in it at the robbery.

  Sarah Truong : Okay. So, now he's a criminal mastermind? Charlie.

  Charlie Hudson : No, I'm just saying there's a lot of evidence here.

  Jesse Mills : So much for clearing me before lunch, I guess.

• Jesse Mills : That's not what I meant by take a look around. Did you guys come here so Rex could track evidence to me?

• Jesse Mills : Look, if you guys actually think I did something like this, then... I don't know, maybe you should leave.

  Sarah Truong : No, no. Jesse.

  Jesse Mills : No, I said go! Seriously.

  Charlie Hudson : Rex.

  Jesse Mills : Rex, you too. Rex, you should go.

• Sup. Joseph Donovan : First thing, where were you the night of the robbery?

  Jesse Mills : I was at home, gaming. And before you ask, no, nobody can confirm that.

• Jesse Mills : I've been playing some online poker. I know it doesn't sound like me but I'm actually pretty good.

  Sup. Joseph Donovan : Why didn't you say anything? All we hear about are your Fortnite exploits.

  Jesse Mills : Well, it's just... it's not... it's not exactly legal. Okay, it's not illegal. It's more of a... grey area because the payout's in crypto.

• Jesse Mills : Are you doing a search of my apartment? Are you? Are you serious?

• Jesse Mills : Oh my God! Yaz? Guys, she's not a suspect! She's my girlfriend!

  Sarah Truong : We didn't know that you were seeing somebody.

  Jesse Mills : Yeah, I am and she has nothing to do with this!

  Charlie Hudson : Well, we need to talk to her to make sure that that's true.

  Jesse Mills : I want to be here.

  Charlie Hudson : You can't be anywhere near this, Jesse.

• Jesse Mills : So, it's true. They are dating.

  Charlie Hudson : Let's find out what else is true.

• Sup. Joseph Donovan : Is there any chance Yazmin could have planted that gun?

  Jesse Mills : Absolutely not.

  Sup. Joseph Donovan : You sure?

  Jesse Mills : Yeah.

  Sup. Joseph Donovan : Because you don't really have the best track record with women Jesse.

• Jesse Mills : It's good to see someone's got my back, huh?

  Charlie Hudson : He's been missing you. He came down here by himself.

  Jesse Mills : Yeah, well he must have missed the treats in my desk.

• Sup. Joseph Donovan : Jesse, don't even worry about it, okay?

  Jesse Mills : Yeah just another day at the office.

• Jesse Mills : Okay, welcome to the wild world of Deepfakes. Now, it's an editing technique that trains a computer to recognize a face at all angles. And then seamlessly place it on a video of someone else.

  Sup. Joseph Donovan : Wait. I've seen this before but I thought it was for videos like what if Samuel L. Jackson played Morpheus on The Matrix?

• Jesse Mills : Okay, well, he's working with someone. A young woman. Someone who can supply him with with videos of me.

  Yazmin : You think I'm behind this?

  Jesse Mills : It's a theory.

• Jesse Mills : I've got a doughnut! I'm not going to eat healthy.

• Yazmin : How bad is it?

  Jesse Mills : Let me see. We're totally surrounded.

  Yazmin : Okay, it's pretty bad. Got it. Um, what do they think they did?

  Jesse Mills : Something far worse than an armoured truck robbery this time.

• Jesse Mills : She is not going to stop until I'm ruined or dead or both.

• Charlie Hudson : Jesse, I need you to come down here now so we can deal with this. Rex.

  Jesse Mills : Tell that to the snipers across the street, Charlie!

  Charlie Hudson : Jesse, we're not going to let anything happen to you, okay? You are part of this team. We've got your back. And if it didn't seem like that earlier, I'm sorry.

• Jesse Mills : I am sick and tired of this fake Jesse running my life. I have to go out there and face the crowd myself.

• Jesse Mills : Rex. I owe you one, buddy.

• Charlie Hudson : Hey, Jesse. You okay?

  Jesse Mills : Yeah. Yeah, I'm better than okay. Let's go catch who did this to me.

• Charlie Hudson : You want to do the honours?

  Jesse Mills : Yeah. Yeah, I would. Chelsea Laidlaw, you're under arrest. You know what? It's nice to finally put a face to the poker player.

  Chelsea Laidlaw : Yeah, I can't say the same.

• Jesse Mills : I've got to ask, was that worth all this trouble? So, I beat you at poker a few times.

  Chelsea Laidlaw : You drained my crypto savings in a single weekend. Twenty-five grand, gone.

  Charlie Hudson : I'd say you took about three times that in the robbery.

  Chelsea Laidlaw : I figured I was owed interest.

  Jesse Mills : Okay, well, you know what? Don't gamble more than you're willing to lose. That is on you.

• Chelsea Laidlaw : He was watching you play poker at his girl's place.

  Jesse Mills : Not his girl.

  Chelsea Laidlaw : Tell that to him.

• Chelsea Laidlaw : He figured we could use the webcam feed to take you for everything you had in the poker tournaments. But he was dreaming too small. We could have so much more fun than that.

  Jesse Mills : You overplayed your hand, Chelsea.

• Charlie Hudson : You're better under pressure than I thought.

  Jesse Mills : Yeah, well there's more to me than you give me credit for, Charlie.

  Charlie Hudson : Okay. I'm sorry I didn't believe you from the start.

  Jesse Mills : No, I get it. It's hard to wrap your head around the two versions of me floating out there.

  Charlie Hudson : I count three. There's one that Chelsea created and then there's the Jesse I had in my head. They were both fake. I just want the real one from now on, okay?

• Jesse Mills : I got absolutely nothing.

  Charlie Hudson : Um, didn't somebody just try and ruin your life because of your incredible poker skills?

  Sarah Truong : Yeah, really. I expected more.

  Jesse Mills : Yeah, well, I mean, it's easier to bluff on a computer screen. Plus, Rex over here knows all my tells.

• Imari Johnson : I'm the temp from downstairs. Where should I set up?

  Sup. Joseph Donovan : Anywhere over there is fine.

  Imari Johnson : Okay, thanks. Thanks.

  Jesse Mills : Oh, whoah.

  Sup. Joseph Donovan : Uh... right. Actually, this... this is better.
