    • Quotes

      Miss Hazel Evers: No one survives her.

      Will Drake: Please leave. I never wanna see you in this hotel again.

      Miss Hazel Evers: So be it. One day, very soon, you will understand. You will know nothing but pain. And I will be there. And you will reach out to me for help and mercy, and in return... I will watch you die with a smile on my face because I will know that once you are gone I will get the chance to clean the blood and shit out of that pretty formal wear of yours.

    5/10
    Overacting turned up to 10
    The over acting (or maybe just bad acting) by Angela Basset almost destroys the entire episode.
