Quotes

Sybil: (to Damon) "Get up, sleepyhead."
Sybil: "It's time for fun."
Sybil: "Where does your subconscious go when you try to resist me?"

Sybil: "Why is he always napping? Me? I love keeping my new eyes open. After you spend a couple hundreds of years with little shriveled up eyes sockets underneath where your eyebrows used to be you take extra pleasure in using all the parts of your body. And you are even more disappointing. I’ve had no luck getting into your head not since the day we met."
Enzo: "And on that day, I was unprepared for your attack, now I am prepared. Anyway I don’t know why you’re complaining, my freewill is at rock bottom. I do almost everything you say, even when I don’t want too."
Sybil: "It’s the almost part of that sentence that vexes me. Come here! Come on, just a peek."

Damon: "Twenty Questions..."
Enzo: "Go"
Damon: "So I thinking of a person, reasonably good looking, charming accent, who would be the most amazing wingman if he'd just got rid of his martyr complex."
Enzo: "That's not how you play twenty questions. Regardless, your answer is either Jesus Christ or me."
Damon: "Got it on the second try. Why are you resisting instruction?"
Enzo: "I'm not resisting anything. I'm here, stalking Sarah Nelson, with you, as instructed. What in this tabloid reads me resisting?"
Damon: "Oh yeah, you here but you're distracted. You're not having any fun, Enzo."
Enzo: "You're impossibly needy."
Damon: "No, I'm highly engaged and I want you to be like me. Come on man, we finally got a cushy assignment for once, I mean chasing unsuspecting women that happen to share the same name. Why can't you enjoy the change of pace."
Enzo: "Because I'm wondering what the boss lady is up too? Why is she suddenly pushing the pause button on her mysterious master plan."
Damon: "Easy, she has a new priority. Giving you a spanking. You put her in a mood, now she wants you to flip your switch. Why did you have to go an piss her off?"
Enzo: "How are you so afraid of her without your emotions?"
Damon: "No so much I'm afraid of her, I'm afraid of that eternal damnation preview she gave me when she got into my head."
Enzo: "That's mind games, none of it is real."
Damon: "I disagree with all of your opinions. Ah there she is."

Sybil: (to Enzo) "I have had no luck to getting into your head, not since the day we met."
Sybil: "Come on, just a peek."
