— He's my son. It's what's best for him.
— I know that's what you believe, but if this escalates, it seems to me the only one who will get hurt is Henry.

— All due respect, Madame Mayor, the fact that you have now threatened me twice in the last 12 hours makes me want to stay more.
— Since when were apples a threat?
— I can read between the lines.

Observant. Important for a cop.

— So what's the deal with you and your mom?
— It's not about us, it's about her curse. We have to break it. Luckily, I have a plan. Step one, identification. I call it Operation Cobra.

— She is not a great people person. How did she get elected?
— She's been Mayor as long as I can remember. No one's ever been brave enough to run against her.

His mother is a very complicated woman. Over the years, her attempts to try and bring Henry closer have only backfired.

— And all you need to know is that Miss Blanchard is gonna bail her out.
— You are? Why?
— I trust you.
