Charles Michael Davis: Marcel Gerard

Quotes 

• Marcel Gerard : [to Hayley]  Whatever happened in the bayou, I'm not your guy. But with the way things are going, eventually I might have to be.

• Hayley Marshall : How long have you known who I am?

  Marcel Gerard : I saw how interested you were in those Crescents. After your little family reunion out at the old plantation house, I started to put two and two together.

  Hayley Marshall : Tell me something, Marcel. Did you kill my parents?

  Marcel Gerard : There was infighting among the wolves. Your folks were laying low. Somebody turned on them. I honestly don't know who. I got there afterwards... found you in your crib.

  Hayley Marshall : [shakes her head]  Give me one good reason why I should believe anything that you have to say.

  Marcel Gerard : Believe whatever you want. But you were the last Labonair. I mean, could have been a lot of leverage for our side, but instead, I took you to Father Kieran.

  Hayley Marshall : [Marcel drops leather bag down on table]  What's that?

  Marcel Gerard : Money mostly. Stuff you need to start over someplace safe. Whatever happened in the Bayou, I'm not your guy. But the way things are going, eventually, I might have to be.

  Hayley Marshall : [sits down, looks up at him]  So this is your grand plan. Get me out of town, and Klaus and Elijah follow closely behind?

  Marcel Gerard : [chuckles]  Well, I can't say that wouldn't be a positive side effect.

  Hayley Marshall : So why don't you leave, follow your own advice?

  Marcel Gerard : I was born here, Hayley.

  Hayley Marshall : So was I.

  [stands up, heads out] 

  Marcel Gerard : Guy on the bike, the bomber... Word is, he had a gambling problem. Owed money to the casinos. More importantly, to the humans who run them. And, Hayley, remember, when things get bad, I tried to get you clear of it. Again.
