Dee (2022)

Nick Basta: Billy

Quotes 

• Billy : That your girl over there? Why ain't you sitting with her? Mm. Maybe you should make more of an effort.

  Dee : What?

  Billy : No offense, but you kinda look like shit. I'm sorry, but somebody's gotta say it.

  Dee : Well, you haven't earned the right.

  Billy : Well, maybe. I've only been here a couple weeks, but I've seen how it works. Brooke bends over backwards making everything nice, and people like you show up looking like drowned opossums, taking advantage of what's provided. Am I right? You know how many people would kill to be here? If you don't want to participate, just go back to your room.

  Dee : I came for Lydia.

  Billy : Then why's she sitting over there?

  [DINNER BELL DINGS] 

  Billy : I need to get some more wine.

• Billy : On your knees. Make sure they're all counted for.

  Nolan : Billy, come on, you know us. We're amenable. What are you doing?

  Billy : Hello to you, too, Nolan. Yes, I am okay. Yes, I survived the bayou. Thank you so much for asking.

  Nolan : Okay, what do you want?

  Billy : Well, a spot became open on the boat today, what with Mr. Langston meeting with such tragedy. Me and my boys just need to get rid of six more of you, and there'll be room enough for us all.

  Nolan : You can't be serious.

  Billy : I know. It's silly. I was hoping to do this in an easier way, but Dee forced my hand. Now, I know there's a few more of you who don't deserve to be here.

  Nolan : Billy, come on. Don't do this. We can work it out.

  Billy : Look at the way they're dressed. Like they've given up. Brooke works so hard to keep this world alive for you, keeps the small things important, keeps your dignity intact. You don't respect the rules. You act like the world is over, so for you, it should be.

  Nolan : Why are you lumping me in with them? I mean, I love Brooke. I... I... I respect everything that she does. If anyone should be kneeling here, it's Dee.

  Billy : Yeah. Dee.

  [CHUCKLES] 

  Billy : Where is Dee? Lydia?

  Todd : Dee took Lydia on a run.

  Billy : Aw, Todd.

  [CHUCKLES] 

  Billy : Nice try, but I know the schedule, remember? Runs are every other week. No exceptions. Soccer mom. Little girl. Go find 'em.

• Billy : Soccer mom. Little girl. Go find 'em. Where's Brooke?

  Nolan : I don't know.

  Brooke : I'm here.

  Seventh Man : Caught her going for the guns.

  Billy : Ease up. Hey, hey. This is the one I've been telling you about. Don't hurt her.

  Brooke : Please, don't hurt anyone, okay? We... We can make room for you. Okay? Your... Your... Your men look...

  Billy : They look great, don't they?

  [CHUCKLES] 

  Billy : Smile, boys. I wouldn't bring you scraps, Brooke. You're pretty much perfect, but you're too nice. You give people too much credit. If we're gonna rebuild, we're gonna need the best. That's why old Mr. Langston had to go, and I thought Erika was aging out, too.

  [Erica mouths 'Fuck you.'] 

  Billy : I'm just saying what you're secretly thinking.

  Brooke : I would never.

  Billy : Admit it? I know. And I don't want you to change.I like the package. That's why you need me, to allow you to continue to be your sweet self. I'll take care of the harder things you can't.

  [PEOPLE SCREAM] 

  Brooke : No! Billy!

  Billy : I bet y'all wish you'd have let Dee kill me.

  [CHUCKLES] 

  Billy : Man, I thought I was pegged for sure.

  Brooke : Billy... Billy, Billy, look at me, look at me. These are good people. You know us. You've been with us.

  Billy : Look, it's them or me, Brooke.

  Brooke : No. No, it's not. 'Cause what the hell do you think is gonna happen after this? We just live happily ever after?

  Billy : That's the plan, isn't it? I mean, I know I've ruined some niceties today. Some things will have to change, but you will still certainly be in charge of pep.

  Brooke : Pep?

  Billy : Yeah. And what the hell, maybe you'll even grow to like me when you realize that we'll keep this place safe so nothing like this ever happens again.

  [PEOPLE SCREAM] 

  Brooke : Billy, please, stop! Stop.

  [WOMEN CRYING] 

  Nolan : J... Jenna. T... t... take Jenna.

  [GASPS] 

  Nolan : She never volunteers for the hard shifts. She barely abides by the schedule!

  Jenna : That's bullshit! You coast on Brooke's work! You'd be nothing without her!

  Nolan : She's always been jealous of Brooke. She's always been jealous.

  Jenna : He doesn't even know what he's talking about!

  Billy : Shut up! Dee and Lydia don't get on here now, I'm gonna start choosing from the crowd.

  Jenna : Wait! Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait! We'll help you find them, right?

  Nolan : Yeah.

  Jenna : We'll help you.

  Mitch : Yeah, yeah, no, I... I saw... I saw Dee.

  Todd : Okay, wait, it doesn't have to happen like this.

  Brooke : What are you doing? You're talking about a little girl. You'd sacrifice a little girl?
