Being Human, Series 5
Hal:
He's been filling your head with utter nonsense! Tom, these attitudes he's encouraging - they're shallow! They're aggressive -
Tom:
Alright, alright! Maybe he's not a very nice guy! Maybe that's the truth! But you know what? I don't care. 'Cause nice guys finish last, Hal. And I'm tired of finishing last. 'Cause when you're there, and you get to the finishing line, you find that the pie's already gone, 'cause some bugger like you has already et it. [beat] The Success Pie. [beat] Which is where they keep it. At the finishing line on the top of...Success Mountain - I don't really know how it works.
Hal:
You don't have to stoop to his level.
Tom:
Well, maybe I do, Hal. 'Cause I'm sure of one thing, that McNair would've wanted more for me than this. And I'm letting him down. Every day I'm letting him down. And maybe this is a way I can make him proud of me.
