Bug : I am the condor. The Keeper of the Souls. I eat death for breakfast. I live in a house of blood and I accept that. That's all a man can do. I was ready to be arrested that night. I wasn't ready for what happened instead. Leah had told them everything and I was celebrated as a hero. Alex Dunkelman killed his stepfather, a cop, a mother, and five of the Riverton Seven. And I alone had stopped him from killing more. I didn't feel like a hero at all. But if it makes Riverton feel safe at night, I'll fake that I'm their hero. And I'll fake it good. Alex wouldn't have it any other way.

Bug : I'm scared.
Alex : We're sixteen, Bug. Like it or not, we're men now.
Bug : I don't feel like a man!
Alex : No one does, that's why you gotta fake it.
Bug : Fake being a man to be a man?
Alex : That's the way it works. You can't run, you have to face your fear like a man.
Bug : Even though I'm not a man?
Alex : Because you're not a man. Listen, the better you fake it, the better man you are.
Bug : Just fake it.
Alex : Fake it good. Like if you're scared, act like you don't give a shit, or if somebody hurts you, say, "Thank you very much, that felt wonderful."
Bug : [practicing] Thanks, Brandon, that-I can't raise my arm, feels good.
Alex : Yeah, there you go.
Bug : Is that all you got, Brandon? I mean... I feel downright... cheated!
Alex : I'm amazed that you're getting this so quick, it's tricky stuff.
Bug : I was faking what I did.
Alex : You were?
Bug : [nods] Completely.
Alex : Yeah, but you were faking it good.
Bug : I was?
Alex : Abso-fuckin'-lutely. You now have permission to shave.

Bug : Now we're all gonna die and it's my fault.

Bug : I wished I could take back what I did today, and make you proud of me.

Fang : Do you know who your daddy was?
Bug : May told me that he loved us very much.
Fang : Yes, but who was he?
Bug : I don't know. He died in a car accident
Fang : On the way to the hospital while she was giving birth to you.
[sarcastically]
Fang : What a sad and lovely story. Do you ever wonder why May doesn't talk about him or why there are no single fucking pictures of him in this house?

Bug : That puppet was scary.

Bug : Well, maybe it was just too painful .
