Quotes
-
[Gerard and Sgt. Keith interrogate Ada Burnett in Ellie's hotel room in Kansas City]
Sergeant Keith : Not a trace of them.
Lt. Gerard : Now come on, Ada, every minute you hold me up you push her closer to the edge. Come on, now, tell me. Where did they go?
Ada Burnett : I don't know.
Lt. Gerard : But you called me, you had information.
Ada Burnett : [clearly having second thoughts] I was wrong.
Lt. Gerard : Ada, you know me, I'm no rookie cop. And I know you. You acted on a decent impulse and called me. But then you started to worry.
Ada Burnett : That's not true.
Lt. Gerard : Because you've never been able to say "No" to her. Never. Since she broke her first expensive toy, whatever Darling wanted Darling got.
Ada Burnett : Phil, please...
Lt. Gerard : But loving isn't just giving in all the time. The child picks up a jar of poison. And this would hurt her more.
Ada Burnett : [torn] Phil, could you... keep her name out of it?
Lt. Gerard : That's a promise.
Ada Burnett : They chartered a plane. They're flying out tonight. Tucker Field.
[Gerard and Sgt. Keith begin to the door]
Lt. Gerard : Don't beat yourself, Ada. You've done the best thing you could for her.
Ada Burnett : [now feeling guilty] For her?
