True Detective, Season 2

Eliot Bezzerides:
I am not comfortable imposing my will on anyone and I haven't been since 1978.

Antigone "Ani" Bezzerides:
Not even to stop them walking into a river.

Eliot Bezzerides:
Yes, not even then. And if your mother's flair for drama had been more present in her acting, she might have gone on to great things. [pause] These totems, they watch over departed spirits. I've always felt your mother among them.

Antigone "Ani" Bezzerides:
You won't even own it a little.

Eliot Bezzerides:
She abandoned the two of you, I didn't. You should spend less time in a state of resistance making up problems for yourself.

Antigone "Ani" Bezzerides:
What does that mean?

Eliot Bezzerides:
A failed marriage, a few relationships, you're angry at the entire world and men in particular out of a false sense of entitlement for something you never received. Your entire personality is an extended criticism of my values. Meant, I'm sure, to compel me into engagement through argument. Do you even like what you do? Or is it just a reflexive urge toward authority out of defiance?

Antigone "Ani" Bezzerides:
Talk to your daughter, prick. Help her.

Eliot Bezzerides:
I just did.
