Phoenix: What’s happening? Who are they?
Norman Nordstrom: I don’t know.
Raylan: You don’t need to be afraid, little girl. This has all just been one big misunderstanding. It’s not me you need to be scared of, but the man standing next to you. Now, I don’t know who he is. But I know who he’s not. Should I tell her, or you?
Raylan: [to Phoenix] Years ago, there was a fire in our house. Cops blamed me. I spent eight years in prison, wondering if I’d ever see you again. Hell, I didn’t even know if you were dead or alive. This creep here must have found you, and kept you for himself.
Raylan: [to Phoenix] You have no idea how much I’ve been waiting for this moment.
Raylan: Did he hurt you? But he did steal you away from me, and now he must die, you understand? Kill him.
Phoenix: No.
Raylan: [as Jim-Bob goes to shoot Nordstrom] F*** are you doing? Not in front of my kid. Do it outside.
Raylan: [as Nordstrom gets away] Take her to the truck while I hunt this m**herf***er.
Jared: [to Phoenix] I don’t care who you are. I’m going to teach you some f***ing manners, yoh. You ungrateful, little b**ch.
Jim-Bob: [referring to Nordstrom] He’s back in the house.
Raylan: I know. He wants us to follow him. Enough of these silly games.
Phoenix: What’s my real name?
Norman Nordstrom: Get over here now!
Phoenix: When’s my birthday? My real one?
Norman Nordstrom: Stop it!
Phoenix: No, you stop it!
