Sienna Miller: Beth Ailes

Quotes 

• Roger Ailes : Why don't you come and work for Fox? Get off that sinking ship.

  Beth Ailes : I... you know, since you left, I've been really running things. I'm, like... running the transition to MSNBC, I'm in charge.

  Roger Ailes : Well, you know, that's... that's probably only for a few months.

  Beth Ailes : But, you know, it could lead to something else. It's a great opportunity, you know that. And I don't want to be too dependent on you.

  Roger Ailes : Why? You think I'm gonna let you down?

  Beth Ailes : No. No, I just don't want to put too much... pressure on... us.

  Roger Ailes : I'm not asking you to make a choice, Beth. No.

  Beth Ailes : I appreciate that.

  Roger Ailes : I gotta say, though, you know, you working for those assholes who fired me, it makes me feel like I'm losing, and I don't... I don't like that feeling. I don't like to lose.

  Beth Ailes : You're not losing, Roger, and you are definitely not losing me.

• Beth Ailes : Is Rupert really as brilliant as they say?

  Roger Ailes : Well... he hired me, didn't he?

  Beth Ailes : Yes, he did.

• Beth Ailes : So, NBC are going nuts because, you know, I agreed to not work for a list of existing news agencies. Not a non-existent news agency. And they signed off on the list, so there's nothing they can fucking do about it.

  Beth Ailes : So smart.

  Roger Ailes : Mm-hmm.

  Beth Ailes : Jack must be pissed.

  Roger Ailes : Mmm. So pissed. Right?

  Beth Ailes : Serves him right.

  Roger Ailes : Mm-hmm.

  Beth Ailes : He betrayed you.

  Roger Ailes : He betrayed his shareholders.

  Beth Ailes : And what's happening with Fox?

  Roger Ailes : Well... the offer letter came from Murdoch today.

  Beth Ailes : So it's happening.

  Roger Ailes : It's happening.

  Beth Ailes : Roger, that is amazing.

  Roger Ailes : Now let's just hope I don't screw it up.

  Beth Ailes : You won't. You're gonna do great things.

• Roger Ailes : Can you imagine Jack tomorrow morning at breakfast?

  Beth Ailes : To see his face

  Roger Ailes : [laughing]  Motherfucker's gonna have ulcers.

  Beth Ailes : How could he be so dumb?

  Roger Ailes : What a dick.

• Beth Ailes : Oh, my gosh, Roger, what happened?

  Roger Ailes : It's just a little cut.

  Beth Ailes : It doesn't look like a little cut.

  Roger Ailes : Ah, you know, hemophiliacs bleed. We're pretty damn good at it.

  Beth Ailes : Is there anything I can do?

  Roger Ailes : Please remind me why you are dating a diseased old man.

  Beth Ailes : Nice try. Where are your pills?

• Roger Ailes : [after Beth is fired from MSNBC]  What are you gonna do now?

  Beth Ailes : I don't know. I don't know.

  Roger Ailes : You know what? You know what this is about, right? This is NBC saying "Fuck you, Roger. We're gonna fire all your people." I will not forget this. I'm gonna hire you. As a consultant. I got no top-line services. Nobody in the goddamn building knows what anybody else is doing.

  Beth Ailes : Like a shared portal?

  Roger Ailes : Yes.

  Beth Ailes : Breaking news and assignments? I will absolutely handle that for you.

  Roger Ailes : Perfect.

  Beth Ailes : I won't let you down.

• Beth Ailes : With the transition, they said there was no place for me anymore.

  Roger Ailes : And they fired you. Hey, come here.

  [hugging her as she cries] 

  Roger Ailes : Come on. It's okay. You know, none of this should have happened.

  Beth Ailes : No.

  Roger Ailes : You made such a dumb choice.

  Beth Ailes : What?

  Roger Ailes : I offered you a way off that sinking ship, remember?

  Beth Ailes : Yes.

  Roger Ailes : Yeah? Well, you should have taken it when I goddamn asked.

  Beth Ailes : And I told you why I couldn't.

  Roger Ailes : Wouldn't. Different.
