Fiske: It's a good trick, and it'll work.
Leah Fuller: On who?
Leah Fuller: On me because I'm stayin' with you.
Leah Fuller: Why?
Fiske: [Chuckles] Because I'm a fool.
Leah Fuller: Not to me.
Fiske: [Hesitatingly] What am I to you?
Leah Fuller: Maybe it'll help if I tell you.
Fiske: It won't.
Leah Fuller: It's easy to say because you're nothing. You're nothing at all. Just nothing.

Luke Daly: [Grabbing Fiske's arm as he walks away from him] I'm talkin'! Don't you turn your back on me!
