The Originals [Season 5, Episode 1]

— Mr. Saltzman calling my mom?
— That. And he thinks your dad should know what you've been up to.
— Yeah. Good luck finding him.

— You know how good it will be not to have to take crap from anybody?
— What… what makes you think that? You're a hybrid now. You may be able to defend yourself, but they'll only hate you for being different.

Why are you avoiding her? She's beautiful and smart. So smart! Maybe too smart for her own good... like her father.

— She's better off without me. I know what it's like to be raised by a monster.
— Oh, my... Come on, that was, like, a thousand years ago! Really? "Mean dad"? Newsflash: The guy's dead! Get over it! Stop using Michael as an excuse to be a bad father! I also know what it's like to be a kid missing her father. You may not be able to be in the same room with her, but there is this... this ancient gadget called a telephone. Use it before you lose your daughter and she loses you. Because... I happen to think that you're someone worth knowing.
