Quotes
-
Hope : [came down to visit Marcel in the cell] Hi. I think this is yours.
[holds out old carved figurine]
Marcel Gerard : Hope.
[she tosses him the figurine, he catches it]
Marcel Gerard : I haven't seen this in a century.
Hope : So... you're the little boy who used to live in my house.
Marcel Gerard : Once upon a time, I lived here with your Dad.
Hope : He keeps you down here because he thinks you want to kill him. Do you?
Marcel Gerard : Listen... I will tell you anything you wanna know, okay? If you get me some blood from your Dad's stash.
Hope : I'm seven, not stupid.
Marcel Gerard : [chuckles] Right. And you're also pretty courageous. Come down here and talk to a stranger.
Hope : I'm not scared.
[proudly:]
Hope : I'm a Mikaelson witch.
Marcel Gerard : I'll tell you what. Let's start fresh, all right? It's very good to see you again, Hope Mikaelson. My name's Marcel.
[she smiles at him]

Marcel Gerard : You know, I'm surprised your parents don't storm down here looking for you.
Hope : My Mom trusts me.
Marcel Gerard : Yeah. But your Dad's never trusted anyone in his life.
Hope : If he took care of you when you were little, why do you hate him? What did he do to you?
Marcel Gerard : [sighs] Your Dad, he raised me. He made me who I am. Now, you ask if I hate him, well.. It's hard to hate the person who made you what you are. You just end up hating yourself. The truth is, I would like to hate your Dad, I really would. It would make things a lot easier. But, uh...
[inhales deeply]
Marcel Gerard : You can't hate someone who you loved for so long.
[Hope listens attentively]
