Brennan Jones/Quotes

**Brennan Jones**: Killian?

**Captain Hook**: Aye, but it's Captain Hook now. You once told me I had to decide what kind of man I wanted to be. Well, Father, this is who I became!

**Brennan Jones**: How is this possible? I left nearly a century ago!

**Captain Hook**: We both found a way to cheat death.

**Brennan Jones**: That we did. Your brother?

**Captain Hook**: Liam was not so fortunate.

**Brennan Jones**: But you... look at you! You grew up! Where have you been?

**Captain Hook**: Neverland. I was biding my time until I found a way to kill myself a crocodile. It's a tale of woe and revenge, but one that you don't need to be concerned with. It's *your* tale that matters. So tell me, Father, where does a scoundrel like you run after he's sold his sons into servitude?!

**Brennan Jones**: Oh, I'm sorry, Killian. Truly, I am. I ran. I didn't get far. Not long after I left you and Liam, I got caught and put under a Sleeping Curse.

**Captain Hook**: A Sleeping Curse? How the bloody hell are you awake now?

**Brennan Jones**: How does anyone break a curse? True Love's Kiss.

**Captain Hook**: Who could *ever* find a way to love you?

**Brennan Jones**: My nurse. I could hear her speaking as I slumbered. Her voice was so kind, so gentle. She made me see the error of my ways. I fell in love with her, and she with me. She changed me. I just... I just wish that I'd known her when we were together. You could've had the father you wanted. The father you *deserved*. I'm so sorry.

**Captain Hook**: Where is this woman?

**Brennan Jones**: A few years after we married, she fell ill. The plague. She never recovered.

**Captain Hook**: I came here to kill you, Father. Your life was the price I had to pay to finally get my revenge... But we've both lost too much.

**Brennan Jones**: You're going to spare me?

**Captain Hook**: In a manner of speaking. The world must believe you're dead. The Queen, *everyone*, must think I killed you. I can secure you a letter of transit to take you far from this place. Maybe you can start again.

**Brennan Jones**: You'll come with me?

**Captain Hook**: No. (*about Milah*) You see, I had a love too, and she was taken from me. You can't destroy the plague that took yours, but I *can* destroy the plague that took mine. I must continue on.

**Brennan Jones**: I hope you find peace, son.

**Captain Hook**: We must hurry. Any delay will arouse suspicion. I'll bring the letter of transit tonight.

**Brennan Jones**: Actually... would it be possible to bring two?

**Captain Hook**: Two?

**Brennan Jones**: My wife and I. We had a son.

**Captain Hook**: You named your boy Liam, after my brother, after the son you *abandoned*. Was he really that easy to replace?

**Brennan Jones**: I wasn't trying to replace him, I was trying to honor him, to honor you both! So I'd remember never to make the same mistake.

**Captain Hook**: No, people don't change... I saw what you said to him in there! It's the same thing you said to me! It was a lie then, and it's a lie now!

**Brennan Jones**: Killian, please, it's not true. I *have* changed. I would never leave him.

**Captain Hook**: But you would leave *me*. (*burns Brennan's letter of transit*)

**Brennan Jones**: Killian, please, what are you doing?!

**Captain Hook**: Deciding what kind of man I want to be. You see, if the Queen discovers that I've deceived her, I might not get what I need, and I can't have that. You're just not worth it. (*stabs Brennan in the stomach*)

**Brennan Jones**: (*falls to the ground*) Killian... it's never too late. You can change. Be a different man. (*dies*)
