top 12 scenes or lines from the season

 

Alias

"Before the Flood"

Vaughn: For starters, my name's not Michael Vaughn.

 

Arrested Development

"Meet the Veals"

Mrs Featherbottom: Now who'd like a banger in the mouth? (everyone looks weirded out) Oh that's right! Here in the states, you call it a sausage in the mouth!
Michael: Actually we just call it a sausage.

 

Arrested Development

"Motherboy XXX"

Narrator: And that’s when Maeby decided to become a devout Christian.
Maeby: Do you guys know where I could get one of those gold necklaces with the ‘T’ on it?
Michael: That’s a cross.
Maeby: Across from where?

 

Arrested Development

"The One Where Michael Leaves"

Lucille: That's right, Michael, I have a rape horn, because you took away my mace.
Buster: Yeah, like anyone would want to "R" her.

 

Deadwood

"Boy the Earth Talks To"

(Alma, resplendent in a black dress with red trim, walks the thoroughfare. We hear her speak in voiceover.)

Alma: I don’t know why I seek you out. If lying in the ground you can think or have feelings, you may hate me and my part in your fate as I sometimes hate you for bringing me here. Though I know your bringing me was the end of something whose beginning I had as much a part of, certainly, as you. I am afraid. I am so afraid that my life is living me, and soon will be over, and not a moment of it will have been my own. And of how my body now tells me that is fine and right. (She pauses in site of the graveyard) Perhaps I confide to you because you cannot tell anyone. (She turns and heads back) I am to have a child, and I have a child in my care. He is a good man. And he whom I love is here as well.

 

Deadwood

"Complications"

Jane: My name’s Jane.
Fields: I’m the Nigger General Fields.
Jane: (Holds out the bottle) Want a drink?
Fields: I want to buy that bottle, that’s what I want.
Jane: Well, ya ain’t buyin’ it, but you can have a fuckin’ drink.
(He looks around, walks back to the bench…)
Fields: Thanks.
Jane: Don’t fuckin’ look around! I don’t care who sees a nigger drinkin’ with me or drinkin’ from the same bottle or how…stupid his fucking outfit is.
Fields: (He turns his shoulder to her) This here is the epaulet of a Union army General.
Jane: Oh. (Lifting a cheek – pointing to her butt) And this here is the ass (grabs her butt cheek) of a drunken shitbird. (Fields smiles, chuckling. They smile at each other.) Finish this with me…(she takes the bottle) If you can sit beside someone and not stink or fart.
Fields: (He sits, looking around, she offers him the bottle back) I’ve been known to cut the odd fart…(drinks) but they’ve never stunk.
Jane: I’ve got the self-same gift.

Berta: So you wanna know what goes on underneath that gruff exterior? Whether somewhere inside me there's a tiny little girl who once dreamed of being a ballerina?
Alan: Is there?
Berta: If there is, it's only because I accidentally ate one and haven't passed her yet.
