Staz Nair: William Dey

Quotes 

• Kara Danvers : What is this?

  William Dey : Kara, walk out of here, forget what you just saw. It's too dangerous.

  Kara Danvers : What are you? An undercover cop?

  William Dey : I'm a journalist, like you. I work for the Times in London. I'm here undercover to investigate Andrea Rojas. I'm sorry, but you've got to leave. Before you get mixed up in this.

  Kara Danvers : Be real with me this once, and maybe I will. 'Cause I already know about your offshore bank account, the one you share with Elena Torres. I know you were in Mexico City yesterday helping her fake her own death. I know you pretended to have a wife, but you don't. I know about Dr. Jerrod, Dr. Stern, so why don't you stop trying to cover your tracks and just try telling the truth?

• Kara Danvers : If the Rojases are dirty, why aren't you saying anything?

  William Dey : Because I haven't found the proof yet. Two years' worth of reporting that suggests a criminal conspiracy bigger than Al Capone, but nothing that connects the Rojases directly. It's why I took the job at CatCo, to get close to Andrea. Doing everything I can to get into the Rojas inner circle.

  Kara Danvers : You have been a toxic jerk since you got here. How do I know you're not just spinning this to get me off the scent of what you're actually up to?

  William Dey : Because that jerk was a lie. An identity I put on to keep everyone at CatCo from wanting to get to know me.

  Kara Danvers : Well, it worked.

  William Dey : And it killed me. Every time I was rude to you, every time I lied about what I've really been up to. Now that you know, at least I can be honest with you. At least maybe you can forgive me.

  Kara Danvers : I don't think that's gonna happen.

  William Dey : I don't blame you. I'd hate me, too. Giving you the cold shoulder. Being hypercompetitive in order to get closer to Andrea. Criticizing your writing instead of telling you what I really thought.

  Kara Danvers : You mean my work's not really "sentimental tripe"?

  William Dey : Your articles are honest and smart. I could never write the way you write.

  Kara Danvers : You have two Pulitzers.

  William Dey : It's not from the writing. It's from the story. I have... craft. You have art. Now promise me you'll let this go. I'd never forgive myself if you got wrapped up in this.

  Kara Danvers : You don't have to worry about me. I can take care of myself.

  William Dey : I don't doubt that you can take care of everything you set your mind to.
