Marla GraysonYou may be a man, but if you ever threaten, touch, or spit on me again, I will grab your dick and balls, and I will rip them clean off.

Marla GraysonEvery fortune ever accumulated started with a leap of faith. But before you take that leap, first take a long, hard look at yourself. Know who you are. Ask yourself: am I an insider? Or am I an outsider? Am I a lamb? or am I a lion? Am I a predator or am I a prey? Am I good at money? or Am I good at people? What am I willing to sacrifice to achieve my dreams? What lines will I not cross? Don't try to be anyone else. Just know who you are and use that to your advantage.

Marla Grayson[narrating]Look at you. Sitting there. You think you're good people. You're not good people. Trust me, there's no such think as good people.
Marla GraysonI used to be like you. Thinking that working hard and playing fair would lead to success, and happiness. It doesn't. Playing fair is a joke invented by rich people to keep the rest of us poor. And I've been poor. It doesn't agree with me. Cuz there's two types of people in the world: the people who take, and those gettin' took. Predators and prey. Lions and lambs.
Marla GraysonMy name is Marla Grayson, and I'm not a lamb. I am a fucking lioness!

Roman LunyovYou recognize that woman, Marla? That's your mother, isn't it? After I destroy you, I will destroy her.
Marla GraysonGo ahead. I don't give a shit about that fucking sociopath.
Roman LunyovOf, of, of course you do. You are... you're brave, Miss Grayson. Stupid. But brave.
Marla GraysonWell, to make it in this country, you need to be brave. And stupid. And ruthless, and focused. This playing fair, being scared? That's gets you no where. That gets you beat.
Marla GraysonBut you are connected to the Russian Mafia.
Jennifer PetersonHe'll kill you next. That is unless you get me out of here now. Then he might let you live.
[Marla pauses and begins to vape]
Marla GraysonJennifer, listen to me. I don't lose. I won't lose. I'm never letting you go. I own you. And I will drain you, of your money, your comfort and your self respect. Not because I want to, not because I'll enjoy it or because I planned it, but because your people didn't play by the rules. You wanna beat me? Well come at me fair and square. You get me in a courtroom, you outplay me. You don't bring guns into a care home. You don't murder one of my friends.
[both glare at each other]
Marla GraysonThis is your life now Jennifer. You're just an old lady, in a care home with dementia, with incontinence, with arthritis. With no one, except me. Jennifer, or whoever the hell you really are, you're gonna die in here, alone and in terrible pain.
