Devil's Due/Quotes

## Quotes

**Hades**: Oh, come on! All you need to do is choose three of your friends to stay here. Carve their name. What's the problem? Is it the chisel? So unwieldy for the one-handed? Or writer's block?

**Captain Hook**: I'm not doing it.

**Hades**: I must say, I'm not angry. I'm disappointed. And on second thought... I'm *angry*. I guess it's off to solitary. Now, listen carefully. This is the River of Lost Souls. Touch it, and it will make you lost, reducing you to a mindless, tormented husk. So please, keep all arms and hand inside the boat.

**Rumplestiltskin**: What are you doing?

**Prince Charming**: We're gonna get Hook. What's it look like?

**Emma Swan**: We know Hades will have him in some sort of isolation. Meg told us there's an entrance nearby.

**Rumplestiltskin**: So all forty-five of you are gonna slip down into the deepest level of detention in the Underworld? Hades knows you're here. He'll have put up barriers to keep the living out of all the places he doesn't want us going. You walk into his domain, you'll all be puffs of dust.

**Emma Swan**: So we get a new plan.

**Rumplestiltskin**: Correct. Five of you, occupy yourselves as you will. Perhaps cleaning? (*to Emma*) You and I will go in with the assistance of a helpful dead person. I can extend their aura, if you will, so that two living souls can get through Hades' barrier.

**Emma Swan**: Wait a minute. Yesterday, you hid in your shop. Today, you're gonna lead the charge to find a man that you hate?

**Rumplestiltskin**: Yeah, because I realized that if don't step in, we are never gonna get home, and I want very much to get home to my wife!

**Rumplestiltskin**: Milah. Milah! You don't have to be doing this yourself. I said I would help.

**Milah**: You *said* that, and somehow it still didn't get done!

**Rumplestiltskin**: Well, I was chasing dragonflies with the boy.

**Milah**: Did he protect you from the big ones?

**Rumplestiltskin**: I know my leg slows me down around here, but I can do better. I can change!

**Milah**: You're never going to change, Rumple.

**Rumplestiltskin**: I can. I can be whatever you want me to be.

**Milah**: Just go play with the boy. That's *one* thing you can do, at least.

(*Baelfire is bitten by an Atlantean Rat Snake and screams*)

**Emma Swan**: (*helping Regina regain her blocked magic*) Do you remember when you used the dagger to force me to get the Promethean Spark going, when I couldn't control my magic?

**Regina Mills**: You didn't know why you were blocked. I know all too well. This place hardly has good, positive energy. Every person I've ever killed is here. My father. The Blind Witch. Enough villagers to make a crazed mob.

**Emma Swan**: And Daniel. That's why this all started, right? Are you worried that he's down here, or that he's *not* down here?

**Regina Mills**: I moved on.

**Emma Swan**: Moving on and being over someone are two *very* different things. Maybe that's what's holding you back. That you *did* move on.

**Rumplestiltskin**: Miss Swan? There's someone I'd like you to meet. This is Milah, my ex-wife. And Hook's ex, also. She's also Baelfire's mother, of course. Emma knew him as Neal. They had a torrid affair, which resulted in a scandalous teenage pregnancy... in prison.

**Emma Swan**: Yeah, well -

**Milah**: So, you've been with my former lover *and* my son? Is that right?

**Emma Swan**: ...Huh.

**Rumplestiltskin**: I'm sure we're gonna laugh ourselves sick about all this one day.

**Rumplestiltskin**: It's our son. We left him at home, thinking it might be too dangerous to move him.

**Milah**: (*shows dead snake*) We need the antidote to this.

**Fendrake the Healer**: Atlantean Rat Snake. It's a 24-hour poison. Your boy will die tomorrow.

**Rumplestiltskin**: No! No...

**Fendrake the Healer**: Unless you're willing to use magic.

**Rumplestiltskin**: Magic? We'll pay anything! What magic?

**Fendrake the Healer**: There is a potion to cure your child. It's very rare.

**Rumplestiltskin**: How much?

**Fendrake the Healer**: 100 gold pieces.

(*Rumplestiltskin and Milah leave empty-handed*)

**Rumplestiltskin**: 100 gold! We won't see that in our lives!

**Milah**: No, but we'll get our cure anyway.

**Rumplestiltskin**: How?

**Milah**: You'll go back and take it.

**Rumplestiltskin**: Take it?! He'd kill me for sure!

**Milah**: Oh, now *there's* a puzzle you'll have to figure out! He can't kill you if you get him first!

**Cruella De Vil**: I see you're admiring my fur. Doe skin, of all things. I'm not saying it's Bambi's iconic dead mother... And I'm not saying it's not!

**Regina Mills**: Just tell me about the graveyard. If I find a headstone, does that mean that person's here in Underbrooke?

**Cruella De Vil**: Underbrooke? Oh, you *are* clever. No, it just means they're passing through, that's all. Who are you looking for?

**Regina Mills**: Well, never mind who. I just... I want to know where they are.

**Cruella De Vil**: I have a map here, now that I've been made mayor - oh, thanks to your recently departed mother! It's got a list of cemetery plots, and you have to know how to interpret the headstones. You see, there's three - what would you call them? Settings? If the headstone is upright, it means the person is still here in town. If it's tipped over, it means their soul has gone on to a better place, okay? Happy person, tippy stone.

**Regina Mills**: And the third setting?

**Cruella De Vil**: If it's cracked... Well, that's bad.

**Regina Mills**: Bad? They got pulled under to wherever is worse than this place?

**Cruella De Vil**: Yes. But no one who's anyone goes there anymore.

**Killian Jones**: Captain Killian Jones, at your service, ma'am.

**Milah**: That doesn't look to be the uniform of any navy I've - Oh. You're -

**Killian Jones**: Well, they call us pirates. We sail where we will and answer to no crown.

**Milah**: I've not seen the ocean much beyond our small port. Is it wonderful to travel so much?

**Killian Jones**: Aye. Do you know there are cities where the air smells of spices, and women are carried on jeweled chairs? Would you like to see that?

**Milah**: Well, I would love that, but I have responsibilities here. An ailing child. Husband.

**Killian Jones**: Ah! A husband. Well, it would appear a better man than I has won. But I am in port quite often, should that ever change.

**Milah**: My unfinished business was never Killian.

**Rumplestiltskin**: Then why -

**Milah**: It's Baelfire! Our son! I should have been there for him, not punished him because I'd grown to hate his father. I was selfish. I thought if I could change that, do something generous, maybe I could finish what I need to.

**Rumplestiltskin**: So you want to move on?

**Milah**: Yeah. So I can see him, and I can say to him, "Son, I'm sorry... for *everything*."

**Rumplestiltskin**: He'll forgive you. I betrayed him, as well. As a grown man, he re-entered my life, and he forgave me. He'll do the same for you.

**Milah**: That's a nice thought. It's just... I *really* want to see him again.

**Rumplestiltskin**: You will. And when you do, tell him hello from his papa.

(*Regina and Snow explore the Underworld Cemetery*)

**Regina Mills**: Thank you for coming.

**Snow White**: Of course! I couldn't let you do this alone. (*they continue searching*) I found him. It's okay, you can look.

(*they look at Daniel's grave*)

**Regina Mills**: It's tipped. He's not here.

**Snow White**: He's moved on. He's happy. (*gives her some privacy*)

**Regina Mills**: Daniel, I'm so glad you're somewhere better, but I'm also sorry I missed the chance to see you. You were my first love, Daniel, and you will always live in my heart. I just needed to know you were okay.

**Hades**: You know, I'm a fan of yours. I mean, there are Dark Ones, and then there is *you*. You're quite the worthy rival to my hot throne.

**Rumplestiltskin**: So is this how you treat rivals?

**Hades**: Did I say rival? I meant supplier. You've sent so many lovely dead people my way. I mean, Regina does okay, but you've been at it longer, and she's gotten, you know, *ugh* lately. So what I really need is you back up there doing your thing, and your friends... I want them down here, *not* doing their thing, because frankly, they piss me off. So, I need you to sink that boat you found because it's their way out of here.

**Rumplestiltskin**: Well, I was gonna use that boat, too.

**Hades**: No problem. I'll just wave my manicured hand, and boom, you'll be in bed with Mrs. Dark One by ten. You in?

**Rumplestiltskin**: Well, you can destroy that boat yourself, I have no doubt.

**Hades**: I could do it myself, yes, but I want you to do it. So, are you a man I can do business with, or do I simply have to kill all of you?

(*Baelfire is cured*)

**Rumplestiltskin**: (*about Fendrake the Healer*) He gave me the cure because we made a deal. He wanted something else instead of gold.

**Milah**: What did you give him?

**Rumplestiltskin**: I signed a paper promising him my second-born child.

**Milah**: You... You sold our *child*?

**Rumplestiltskin**: No! No, no, no. That's it. I mean, I *didn't*. We don't *have* a second-born child. We just have to make sure we never do!

**Milah**: Because you *sold* them! You sold our *future*!

**Rumplestiltskin**: No.

**Milah**: Our family. Rumple...

(*Emma and Rumplestiltskin successfully save Captain Hook*)

**Snow White**: Killian!

**Henry Mills**: (*to Emma*) Good job, Mom.

**Snow White**: Oh, look at you!

**Captain Hook**: (*bloodied and beaten*) I'll be all right.

**Prince Charming**: How did you do it?

**Emma Swan**: Gold got us in. He got us help. He poofed us back here. He even had a boat to get us all back home. But it's gone.

**Snow White**: What happened?

**Captain Hook**: Hades attacked. We lost the boat and... (*about Milah*) we lost a friend. (*to Rumplestiltskin*) I hear you took away my sacrifice. Everything I did to save my friends all went to give you back your power. I should kill you.

**Rumplestiltskin**: Acknowledged.

**Captain Hook**: *But* you helped get me out of there, so I should say -

**Rumplestiltskin**: Thank you? No need.

**Captain Hook**: - Stay of execution. We're even, for now.

**Rumplestiltskin**: I just wanted to get home. And yes, you're welcome, Captain.

**Robin Hood**: (*about Milah*) Well, we're sorry you lost her.

**Rumplestiltskin**: She made me who I am.

**Rumplestiltskin**: Peekaboo! Some places never change, even after all these years! Wouldn't hurt to dust the chickens.

**Fendrake the Healer**: I know who you are, Dark One.

**Rumplestiltskin**: Well, I imagine you do.

**Fendrake the Healer**: You weren't like this before.

**Rumplestiltskin**: That's right. I was a mortal man then, and a moral one. A man in a desperate situation, and you took advantage, and I admire that a great deal. Full points! But I don't like carrying debt.

**Fendrake the Healer**: Unfortunately, Dark One, the contract is binding. Even if I wanted to change it, I couldn't. You owe me.

**Rumplestiltskin**: I owe you, that's right. But... I can't owe a debt to a dead man! (*rips out Fendrake's heart*) Now, I don't like debts, but I do love a loophole! (*crushes Fendrake's heart, killing him*)
