Hatfields & McCoys (TV Mini Series)

Episode #1.3 (2012)

Lindsay Pulsipher: Roseanna McCoy

Quotes 

• Sally McCoy : After I die I would like my body destroyed by electricity. Can you remember that, Roseanna?

  Roseanna McCoy : Yes, Mama.

• Roseanna McCoy : We was friends, Nancy. Why'd you hurt me the way you did?

  Nancy McCoy : You hurt yourself taking up with Johnse. Me marrying him just saved you a whole lot of pain.

  Roseanna McCoy : You love him?

  Nancy McCoy : I never did. I hate him. Just like all the demon Hatfields. Me and Johnse was never nothing against you. It was just plain old revenge. Swore to killing Hatfields when I was young. Revenge is all I got inside of me.

• [first lines] 

  Undertaker : How old was little Sarah Elizabeth?

  Roseanna McCoy : She was just shy of a year.

  Undertaker : [about casket]  Lined with blue velvet.

  Roseanna McCoy : [beginning to cry]  Yeah. Yeah, she'd like that.

  Aunt Betty Blankenship : This'll do, Mr. Goodpasture.

  Undertaker : I'll give you some time...

  Aunt Betty Blankenship : She'll rest easy in that.

  Roseanna McCoy : Yeah. Poor little girl. Do you think me and Sarah Elizabeth will recognize each other when I get to heaven?

  Aunt Betty Blankenship : I suspect your brothers are taking care of her, you'll recognize them. They done murder. They might not get there.

• Roseanna McCoy : It's your daughter Roseanna. I'm coming up behind you. I'm standing next to you. You see me, Poppy? You hear my voice?

  Randall McCoy : I hear you.

  Roseanna McCoy : Dead children. A dead grandchild. A mad wife. Anybody would think you'd embrace a still living daughter.

  [starting to cry] 

  Roseanna McCoy : When I was a little girl, you once told me I was your favorite. I lived on that for years. Just that tiny bit of approval made me believe I could do anything in this world. Because for all your preaching, and all your praying - in our house, you were God.
