Colm Fahey: You all are so young. How can you all be theives and murderers??

Kaz: Yeah, it's the trauma.

Jesper: There's even some mutual trauma between us.

Kaz: Basically, moral of the story. We’re all insane kids whose fun involves insane heists, knives, and big family group hugs.

Dregs: *nodding in agreement*

Dregs: Wait, what?

Kaz: No mourners, no funerals.

Jesper: No party hats, no party.

Kaz: No pigeons, no money.

Jesper: No cows, no ice cream.

Nina: Two fools, no silence!

Inej: When I said, “bring me back something from the beach,” I meant like a seashell.

Kaz, struggling to hold a seagull: well you didn’t fucking say that

Kaz: You mean, did it hurt when I rose from hell?

Kaz: Cause, yeah, it kinda did. But I got rich, so I didn't care.
