Quotes 

• Davis Bloome : What's your name?

  Bette Sans Souci : B-Bette.

  Davis Bloome : You inhaled a lot of smoke, Bette. We're gonna give you a little fresh air.

  [putting an oxygen mask on her] 

  Davis Bloome : Take slow, deep breaths. Try to stay calm, okay? I'm gonna check you over, tell me if anything hurts.

  Chloe Sullivan : [Bette holds her hand]  Just hang in there, Bette. It's okay.

  Davis Bloome : You're doing great.

  [to Chloe] 

  Davis Bloome : You, too.

  Chloe Sullivan : Thank god you heard me.

  Davis Bloome : You're hard to miss.

• Tess Mercer : Hello, Bette.

  Bette Sans Souci : You should have died on that bus.

  Tess Mercer : The last time we met, things did get a little fiery. Lucky for me, I ducked.

• Tess Mercer : So, they're taking you to Belle Reve. I'm sure after a few years of good behavior, they'll let you see the sun again. Or you could come with me.

  Bette Sans Souci : I'd rather be a prisoner there than your lab rat in Montana. Go push your cheese somewhere else.

  Tess Mercer : [entering the cell]  I didn't build that place, Bette. And after I heard about all the terrible things happening there, I closed it down. I tried to tell you.

  Bette Sans Souci : If you shut down the Thunderdome, then why are you still coming after me?

  Tess Mercer : Because you're a very powerful person, and I think it's about time the world started treating you accordingly. Don't you?

  Bette Sans Souci : Listening.

  Tess Mercer : I want to introduce you to some people like you. A sort of team. But only if you want.

  Bette Sans Souci : A team? Take a look at my file, lady. I don't play well with others.

  Tess Mercer : I think once you meet everyone, you may finally feel like you fit in. I remember what it was like to be your age; alone, angry, trapped. The injustice of it all. I can help, Bette.

  Bette Sans Souci : A team is only as good as its weakest link. Look what happened to me on the bus. Why scout out somebody who's just gonna choke on their own smoke?

  Tess Mercer : Hey, don't be so hard on yourself. We'll make a hero out of you yet.

• Bette Sans Souci : You're not afraid of me?

  Clark Kent : No. I just want to help you.

  Bette Sans Souci : After everything I've done, why would you want to help a monster like me?

  Clark Kent : Because you're not a monster. You've just been led down the wrong path.

  Bette Sans Souci : What if other people find out about me and they get afraid and they try to hurt me? So I have to lie, I have to hide what I am.

  Clark Kent : [offering his hand]  You don't have to anymore. Not from me.
