The Best Lisa-Ann Follows Quotes

Lisa: Cheers.
Dylan: To what?
Lisa: The biggest story since Casey Anthony.
Dylan: Yeah, well, I'm not sure everyone shares your enthusiasm.
Lisa: Okay... I think there's been a bit of a misunderstanding.
Dylan: No. No misunderstanding. You chose Alison over me, and then she got her head deep-fried.
Lisa: Okay, so then how do I make it better?
Dylan: What are you offering?
Lisa: What do you want? More money? Done. Airtime? You'll be my go-to guy on this case. We can talk about bringing you in on a permanent basis. Why don't you come by my hotel? We'll order a bottle, do a little career planning...
Dylan: A book deal.
Lisa: I'm sorry, what?
Dylan: A book deal. True crime. All of the killings, starting 30 years ago.
Lisa: I'm not a publisher, Dylan.
Dylan: You've published four books and you didn't write any of 'em.
[a waiter approaches]
Dylan: You ready to order? 'Cause I know what I want.

Lisa: What are you gonna have?
Dylan: Well, it's a toss-up between the ossobuco potato stack and the Chinese chicken salad with mandarin segments. Welcome to 1996.

Lisa: "Making love to Cam is like going for a bad massage. A lot of touching, a lot of squeezing, and you end up feeling sore and kind of embarrassed." Ouch. And you're telling me Cam Henry is not a suspect?
Dylan: Cam Henry is a respected member of the Waterbury police department.
Lisa: John Wayne Gacy dressed up as a clown and performed at children's birthday parties. Means nada.
Dylan: Does this look bad for Sgt. Henry? Absolutely. But we have to remember, Lisa-Ann, these murders are motivated by the seven deadly sins, and last time I checked, screwing around on your husband is not one of them.
Lisa: Lust is.

Lisa: Well, you wasted no time moving in.
Dylan: Someone's gotta hold down the fort.
Lisa: Dylan... this story is breaking, big. And I wanna talk next steps.
Dylan: So does Megyn Kelly. And "Dateline". And "48 Hours Mystery".
Lisa: Well, lucky for me, I got in on the ground floor. What are you doing tonight?
Dylan: Eatin' a sandwich, right here.
Lisa: You can take an hour out and have dinner with me. Like a civilized person. Tell me the time and the place.
Dylan: Well, there is only one place. How's, um... how's 7:00?
Lisa: Perfect. Looking forward to it.

Lisa: This one has to be my favorite. "I want all of it, Trent. I want the fights and the make-ups. I want the kisses goodnight and the waking up the next morning in your strong arms. I want to walk along the beach with you at Katherine Cove, the sand between our toes, just you and me and the sunset. I want to kiss you and call you baby. That's what I want, Trent, with you."
[laughing]
Lisa: She sounds like an oxygen-deprived teenager. How did you get these? They are gold.
Alison: [covering] Uh, they were e-mailed to us. We can't reveal our source, obviously.

Dylan: Alison, this guy is not done killing. He has three more to go; pride, lust, greed. And call me crazy, but throwing yourself to the lions, that seems a little prideful.
Alison: Are you concerned or are you just jealous that you didn't think of it first?
Dylan: Jealous?
Lisa: He's a cold-blooded killer.
Alison: He is, and, uh... that'll make for an incredible interview, won't it?

Lisa: A picture-postcard small town, a series of bloody murders, one more gruesome than the next. Is this the latest Hollywood blockbuster? No, this is reality for the citizens of Waterbury. I'm coming to you live on location with two journalists who are living this nightmare. Dylan Bennett, the fearless editor in chief of the Waterbury Bulletin, and its publisher, Alison Sutherland. Thank you for welcoming me to your town.
Dylan: Thank you for having us.
Lisa: Now, this latest victim, June Henry, she was the wife of a police deputy.
Dylan: Yes, and she was having an affair with our fourth victim, Trent McBride.
Lisa: Is the husband a suspect?
Dylan: No.
Lisa: Why not?
Dylan: You see, these were not crimes of passion. All the victims have a... a deep, dark secret in their past.
Lisa: And these secrets are based on one of the deadly sins, am I right?
Dylan: Yeah, that is the working theory.
Lisa: Well, then, would you say that this killer is a vigilante, cleaning up your town?
Alison: [not sure how to respond] Uh...
Dylan: Is he... well, I'm a big believer in justice. I'm a journalist. Our job is to expose the truth.

Lisa: I was living in L.A. when the Grim Sleeper was killing black women. I have had... mass murderers, wife killers, terrorists, kidnappers. You name it, the dregs of society on my show. Takes a lot to shake me. But these killings scare the shit out of me.
Alison: I know exactly what you're saying. When the original murders took place, it was...
Lisa: Your wife's parents were the victims?
Dylan: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, they were.
Lisa: I can't even imagine.
Dylan: Oh, it was terrible.
Lisa: Actually, I can, because you did such an incredible job telling Sarah's story, all of these stories, bringing them to life.
Dylan: Thank you. Uh, you know, with material like this, i-it kind of writes itself, you know?
Lisa: Okay. Dylan... if this is gonna work, you need to drop all of the "gee-golly, aw-shucks" polite crap or I'll eat you up and spit you out like a bad piece of sushi. Do you want that? You don't want that.
Dylan: These murders have terrorized this community. The Executioner has acted like judge, jury, and hangman. If we don't give a voice to these people, who will? We owe it to them.

Lisa: Now, this original Executioner, the one rotting in jail, have you met him?
Dylan: Uh, no, I have not.
Lisa: I think you should try to book him.
Dylan: Yeah.
Lisa: It's ratings dynamite.

Lisa: Now, before you get all angry and accuse me of ambushing you, in my defense, you kept a pretty key piece of evidence from me tonight.
Dylan: The fact that my wife is on a kill list? Yeah, I can't imagine I'd want to keep that to myself.
Lisa: It's news. I mean, it's horrible news, and I hope it all works out, but this is what we do.

Alison: You remember that News of the World scandal over in the UK, where they hacked into the phone of that murdered girl's parents?
Lisa: Of course. What about it?
Alison: Well, let's just say they could've learned a thing or two from me. 'Cause I was never caught. Ariel Peterson's disappearance was big news, at least for a while, but with no new leads, the story started to die a slow death, so... I made sure it stayed alive. Benny Peterson was a controlling, jealous man. Everyone knew it. He threatened to kill Heather and Ariel if Heather ever left him. All the facts pointed to him, but there was no smoking gun. So I provided one. Did the trick. The readership shot up. Made enough money to keep the Bulletin afloat for another year, Vaughn focused the entire investigation on Benny Peterson. Built a compelling case against him. And then... Benny hung himself. Everyone assumed the case was solved. Benny killed his daughter, then he hung himself out of guilt. But... Heather never bought it. And Diane...
Lisa: What?
Alison: Well, what if I was wrong? What if Benny was innocent? What if Ariel's still out there and whoever took her got away with it because of me?
Lisa: What if... what if he was guilty, and you nudged justice along? Tell me... if you could go back, if you could do things differently, would you?
Alison: [thinking] That e-mail kept the lights on and my staff being paid.
Alison: [to the bartender] Get this lady a drink, pronto.

Lisa: I'm attracted to the story for a bunch of reasons. One, it's great drama. Who doesn't love a series of murders in a small town? Two, it's got an incredible backstory.
Dylan: Mm-hmm.
Lisa: And it's happening in real time. Three, it's not on the radar. Not yet. That's why I wanted to be here first. Trust me, I'm not in Waterbury for the fine dining.

Dylan: The Executioner is not concerned with being economical with his killings.
Lisa: Well, that brings up the key question I have. What does this killer want? Why is he doing this? Thoughts?
Dylan: Well, I feel like the religious nature of these crimes can't be ignored. "My god is a vengeful god."
Lisa: Jesus also says "turn the other cheek."
Dylan: In the New Testament, but I feel like this killer is more motivated by the Old.
Lisa: Very good point, Dylan. People forget there are two sides to Christianity. So what do you think his motivations...
Alison: Why don't we ask the Executioner himself? Serial killers write to newspapers all the time. Uh, the Son of Sam, BTK, the Zodiac. If the Executioner has a message, then please talk to me. Let me interview you one-on-one.
Lisa: [taken aback] We'll be right back to talk more about the religious aspects of these terrible crimes.

Lisa: So, I just watched a rough cut of your interview.
[squeezing in between Alison and Dylan]
Lisa: Excuse me. And, uh, my dear, for the first time in my life, I was speechless.
Alison: [with a happy squeal] Awesome. That is great.
Lisa: Unbelievable.
Alison: Hm! Okay, so, um.. okay, here's something that I've been wanting to ask.
Lisa: Uh-huh?
Alison: How do I translate all of this into... something bigger?
Lisa: Bigger?
Alison: Well, the story's burning bright for now, but it won't last forever. Hell, we're almost out of sins.
Lisa: Okay, so what exactly does bigger look like?
Alison: Look, I was born in Waterbury. I've spent most of my life here. God, I... rent the apartment above the Bulletin because I've sunk all my life savings just to keep it on life support. I refuse to die here. Not with this albatross of a newspaper wrapped around my neck.
Lisa: Girl to girl, no bullshit?
Alison: Yeah, of course.
Lisa: Okay. What you did with the Executioner, balls to the wall. But he is a pussycat. People like me, we have no moral code. You can't, not in this business, and honey, underneath all of the bluster, you're actually kinda nice. It's not a bad thing, it's a good thing, really.

Lisa: Holy... shit.
Dylan: Okay, let's... let's pump the brakes here. Can we confirm that that's him? That could be anybody in the mask.
Alison: You heard what he told me. Stuff only the Executioner would know.
Lisa: Alison, you must have been terrified.
Alison: [laughing] Well, when he stood up at the end, I'll admit my bladder and brain had a momentary disconnect.
Lisa: Well, our techies should be able to clear up picture and sound, but I kind of like the vérité quality. And I want to build an entire special around it.
Alison: Really? Oh, okay. Wow.
Lisa: I am putting you on a plane to New York tomorrow. We'll do it in our studio. We'll bring in some big names. Are there any journalists or crime writers that you are particularly fond of?
Alison: Uh... oh, God. Okay. Uh, let me think. Um... or, Dylan, anybody you can...?
Lisa: Oh, we'll pipe Dylan in from here if we need him. Someone's gotta hold down the fort, right?
Dylan: Hey, guys, what about going to the police, you know? I mean, this is a pretty major break in the case.
Lisa: It is, and they can watch it on TV tomorrow night like the rest of the world.
