Hank Prior: Just the third day of dark and it’s already getting weird.


 

Liz Danvers: [referring to the three researchers] It’s like they went to take a leak, never came back.


 

Liz Danvers: They live here all year long? All alone? Just like monks? What are they looking for? Digging that ice up.
Peter Prior: I think the origin of life?
Liz Danvers: Ah, that thing.

Liz Danvers: Who leaves their cell behind?

Liz Danvers: Mayo doesn’t go runny until a couple days out of the fridge. But your processed cold cuts, they’ll survive the apocalypse. The things you learn

Liz Danvers: Alright, let’s take a look at that tongue. Two days, starting to discolor.
Peter Prior: Maybe it’s not human.
Liz Danvers: Oh, it’s human alright.


 

Evangeline Navarro: It’s a woman’s tongue. It’s an Inupiaq woman’s tongue.
Liz Danvers: And you know this because your spirit animal came to you in a dream?
Evangeline Navarro: No, my spirit animal eats old f***ing white ladies like you for breakfast, Danvers. Careful.


 

Ryan Kowtok: Do you believe in God, Agent Navarro?
Evangeline Navarro: Yes.
Ryan Kowtok: Mind if I ask why?
Evangeline Navarro: My last tour… It doesn’t matter.


 

Ryan Kowtok: Must be nice.
Evangeline Navarro: What?
Ryan Kowtok: Knowing we’re not alone.
Evangeline Navarro: No, we’re alone. God too.


 

Officer Cooper: How’s Troopers?
Evangeline Navarro: You know, same s**t, different badge.


 

Peter Prior: You lied to her. Navarro. You do know the case. You studied it.
Liz Danvers: Mind your own business, kid.
Peter Prior: You made it my business when you asked me to steal these for you.
Liz Danvers: I asked you to relocate them.
Peter Prior: Fine. I will relocate them back to my dad, and you can ask him for them.
Liz Danvers: You bluff for s**t, you know that?


 

Liz Danvers: This one was never going to be solved.
Peter Prior: What do you mean?
Liz Danvers: Ennis killed Annie. This f***ing place. No killer was ever going to be found.


 

Liz Danvers: Still really carry it, don’t you? Annie’s case.
Evangeline Navarro: We carry them all.
Liz Danvers: No, we don’t.


 

Evangeline Navarro: So you did look into the case, didn’t you? Back then.
Liz Danvers: Yeah. It doesn’t mean s**t. It’s one parka. Could be thousands of them.
Evangeline Navarro: Right. So what are you doing here, then?
Liz Danvers: Just following up.


 

Evangeline Navarro: You don’t really think they’re going to find them, do you?
Liz Danvers: You’re the one who believes in miracles. Picking up any spirit vibes?
Evangeline Navarro: Nope. All I’m picking up is your s**tty f***ing attitude.


 

Liz Danvers: Better watch out. That case sunk you once.
Evangeline Navarro: The case didn’t sink me. You asked me to transfer to troopers. Had nothing to do with Annie. We both know what really happened.


 

Evangeline Navarro: Annie’s case isn’t closed. It’s not closed.
Liz Danvers: Just let her go. Let that poor girl go.
Evangeline Navarro: “Let her go.” You didn’t find her. You didn’t see the hate.


 

Liz Danvers: No, you’re not going to blame her on me. And I wasn’t even here. You know who was here? You. You were here. It was your case all those months. You didn’t close it. You.
Evangeline Navarro: Exactly.


 

Evangeline Navarro: [referring to the bodies of the researchers] How did you find them?
Rose Aguineau: Travis showed me.
Evangeline Navarro: Travis. Travis is dead, Rose.
Rose Aguineau: I know.

 

2. Part 2True Detective: Night Country Quotes

Liz Danvers: This case. It’s going to be a s**tbowl. No answers. Bunch of angry people.


 

Liz Danvers: Stop f***ing around! Alright, this is a crime scene! Why don’t you pretend like you know what you’re doing.


 

Evangeline Navarro: Do you see him often?
Rose Aguineau: Travis? No. Death didn’t change him. The f***er only comes when he wants something.

 

'That sticks with you, doesn't it? Not being good enough.' - Peter Prior (True Detective: Night Country) Share on X


Evangeline Navarro: Did he say goodbye?
Rose Aguineau: Before he went into the ice? Yes. He knew he was dying. He didn’t want the leukemia to take him. He brought me croissants. F***ing croissants. He had made them himself. We ate them. He sang a little. We f***ed a little. He didn’t say much. He was so tired. But then, we had talked so much all those years he came to me. Then he left.
Evangeline Navarro: And then I found him.
Rose Aguineau: Yep. One last gift from Travis Cohle. I got to meet you.

Evangeline Navarro: You seeing the dead, when did that start?
Rose Aguineau: With Travis. But I know people who are born with it. And then, of course, there’s Ennis. It happens around here all the time. I think the world is getting old, and Ennis is where the fabric of all things is coming apart at the seams.


 

Evangeline Navarro: And when you see them, hear them, how do you stay okay?
Rose Aguineau: The thing about the dead is that some of them come and visit because they miss you. Some come because they need to tell you something that you need to hear. And some of them just want to take you with them. You need to know the difference.


 

Rose Aguineau: Don’t confuse the spirit world with mental health issues.


 

Rose Aguineau: [referring to the spiral motif] Did you see that thing on his forehead?
Evangeline Navarro: I’ve seen that before. Years ago. What is it?
Rose Aguineau: It’s old, Missy. Older than Ennis. It’s older than the ice, probably.


 

Ted Connelly: You don’t want this case. I know you. What’s that thing you say? S**tbowl? This is a s**tbowl.
Liz Danvers: Well, it’s my s**tbowl.


 

Kate McKitterick: Is this about those poor scientists?
Liz Danvers: Yep.
Kate McKitterick: So horrible.
Liz Danvers: Yeah. They’re frozen into a giant block of flesh as we speak.


 

Peter Prior: Why are they climbing on top of each other? It’s like there was something chasing them.
Liz Danvers: Well, hate to break it to you, kid, there’s no yetis. And hypothermia can cause a delirium. They panic and freeze, and, voila, corpsicle.


 

Evangeline Navarro: That mine b**ch hates you even more than she hates me.
Liz Danvers: I might have dated her husband.
Evangeline Navarro: Before or after the divorce?


 

Liz Danvers: I’m not working with you again ever.
Evangeline Navarro: You think I want to work with you?
Liz Danvers: I do, actually. Yeah.
Evangeline Navarro: Take a look in the mirror, Liz. No one can stand you. Except for that poor kid, Prior. But you’ll be breaking his heart real soon.
Liz Danvers: Get out of my scene. Go on. F*** off!
Evangeline Navarro: You know where to find me.


 

Peter Prior: No one stops to draw on their own forehead while they’re freezing to death.


 

Peter Prior: How scared do you have to be to run out on the ice without any shoes?


 

Peter Prior: It doesn’t make any sense.
Liz Danvers: Oh, it does. We’re just not seeing it. Not asking the right questions. I told you this was a s**t case.
Peter Prior: Yeah, you did. Then you went ahead and made it your s**t case. I won’t even ask why.


 

Kenny: This is Ennis, man. Yeah. You see people sometimes. Know what I mean Jesus, Pete. You grew up here. You know this. You see people who are gone sometimes. It’s a long f***ing night. Even the dead get bored.


 

Peter Prior: What did Navarro do to you?
Liz Danvers: You worried you’re going to f*** up too? Well, don’t f*** up.


 

Hank Prior: Now listen, Danvers doesn’t own you. You have a family, and she’s not it. Blood is blood, Peter. Remember that.


 

Ted Connelly: So, you f***ed me with the bodies, then you come to actually f*** me.
Liz Danvers: Well, you want to or not? Yeah. I know you didn’t stay in town for the lovely weather.


 

Ted Connelly: Do you want to say it first or should I?
Liz Danvers: That’s the last time we do this.
Ted Connelly: That’s fifteen years of last times.
Liz Danvers: Nineteen.


 

Ted Connelly: You’re thinking, “Know why I want the case?”
Liz Danvers: Why?
Ted Connelly: “Because f*** you, that’s why.”
Liz Danvers: Huh. I guess you do know me.


 

Liz Danvers: Well, it looks like your case is my case.
Evangeline Navarro: What are you doing here?
Liz Danvers: Well, you know Annie better than I can get from the files.
Evangeline Navarro: And now it matters because it’s a bunch of white men?
Liz Danvers: You want in, or do you just want to go f*** yourself?


 

Liz Danvers: We’re just doing this one thing. We’re going to crack it, close your case, I close my case. And then, that’s it for the two of us.
Evangeline Navarro: It is.


 

Evangeline Navarro: And now she wants me on the case, but I don’t have anything.
Eddie Qavvik: That can’t be true. If you didn’t have anything, she wouldn’t want you, so you have it all.


 

Liz Danvers: [referring to Clark and Annie’s trailer] How did you find this place?
Evangeline Navarro: My Spirit Animal showed me in a dream. Remember?


 

Evangeline Navarro: [referring to the frozen dead bodies] He’s not here. Clark’s not here.
Liz Danvers: Maybe he got separated.
Evangeline Navarro: No, he didn’t. He’s alive. He’s out there.

 

3. Part 3

Evangeline Navarro: [referring to Clark] Hey, we want him alive.
Hank Prior: Do we?


 

Liz Danvers: What’s Clark’s s**t doing in the evidence room?
Peter Prior: Well, it’s evidence.
Liz Danvers: Yeah, well, move it someplace sanitary. The place is disgusting. Stinks. Alright, I’m going to need a tetanus shot just to look at this s**t.


 

Peter Prior: I thought you hated Navarro.
Liz Danvers: I do. I hate everyone. Hate you, especially now.

 

'Don't you ever get this feeling like that sometimes you just want to just disappear? Just walk out, never stop? Just go. Just go.' - Evangeline Navarro (True Detective: Night Country) Share on X

 

Peter Prior: What happened the last case you worked with Navarro? The Wheeler case, because that was it for you guys, right?
Liz Danvers: Alright. Only one bedtime story. It was a murder-suicide.

Liz Danvers: [referring to the Wheeler case] We were too late. He killed her and he shot himself. They were both dead when we got there. Navarro couldn’t get over it.

Liz Danvers: [to Peter] Go tell your dad to get rid of his hillbilly friends, or I’m going to call immigration on his Russian mail-order bride!

Liz Danvers: Ask the question.

Evangeline Navarro: Why keep it a secret?


 

Liz Danvers: [to Navarro] Are you still f***ing that dog runner bootlegging guy, Qavvik? Or are you back with girls?

Evangeline Navarro: Come on, Liz, everybody knows.

Evangeline Navarro: That son of a b**ch takes me off the case, and then he buries this lead?
Liz Danvers: Question is, why is Hank f***ing around…
Evangeline Navarro: Don’t “Ask the question” me! Okay? I’ll tell you why he did it right now. It’s the f***ing mine behind it. You know I’m right.
Liz Danvers: I don’t know s**t.
Evangeline Navarro: Well, then you’re a s**t detective.


 

Liz Danvers: Don’t give me that voodoo, E.T., cosmic choompa-loompa bulls**t.
Evangeline Navarro: Are you trying to say “chupacabra”?
Liz Danvers: Whatever, the magic. It’s no magic. Alright. There’s a real explanation for this.

Liz Danvers: We’re just not asking the right questions. We will. We’ll find it.
Evangeline Navarro: Who’s the one that believes in miracles?

[Danvers then tosses his coffee on his face]


 

Peter Prior: [to Danvers] Who’s Mrs. Robinson?


 

Eddie Qavvik: It’s called quid pro quo. You tell me something. I tell you something.
Evangeline Navarro: Don’t get f***ing cute on me.
Eddie Qavvik: I’m not kidding. You tell me something about yourself, and I’ll get you that intel.
Evangeline Navarro: F*** you, Qavvik.
Eddie Qavvik: Always lovely to see you, Evangeline.


 

Eddie Qavvik: Alaska girls always come back.

Julia: I think stuff. Bad stuff.


 

Vince the Vet: [referring to the scientists] I think they died before they froze.
Liz Danvers: What?

Vince the Vet: [referring to the scientists dying of cardiac arrest] I’ve seen caribous die of plain fright. Running. Terrified. These scientists, they look the same.


 

Liz Danvers: So, Vince, you think you could do just like a tiny bit of postmortem?
Peter Prior: Chief.
Liz Danvers: I’m just kidding. That would be super illegal.


 

Anders Lund: We woke her. And now she’s out. She’s out there in the ice.

Liz Danvers: So you can look good for your Mayor campaign next year.
Ted Connelly: I’m f***ing helping you here, Liz. Besides, you like having me in town.
Liz Danvers: F*** off.

Evangeline Navarro: Annie’s video. There aren’t any ice caves near where her body was found.

Liz Danvers: You should go home.
Evangeline Navarro: I don’t want to go home.
Liz Danvers: It’s Christmas Eve.
Evangeline Navarro: F*** Christmas Eve.

Liz Danvers: When my mom died, my dad told us to pray. He said, pray with our hearts and she’d be fine.
Evangeline Navarro: And you prayed?

Evangeline Navarro: Maybe you didn’t pray hard enough.
Liz Danvers: F*** you. Still no God though.


 

Evangeline Navarro: [to Danvers] Oh, you didn’t. Is there anyone in this town you haven’t f***ed?


 

Evangeline Navarro: Did you make all this?
Rose Aguineau: Of course, I did. All of Santa’s elves drowned in global warming, darling. And the rest are all meth-heads.


 

Evangeline Navarro: What were you, Rose, before?
Rose Aguineau: You mean, before I was old and crazy?


 

Rose Aguineau: Well, I was a very serious professor in a very serious school, writing very serious ideas.
Evangeline Navarro: Why did you leave?
Rose Aguineau: Well, one Tuesday morning after coffee, I sat down to polish some pompous, useless article. And I just had enough. I had enough. Every damned word I’d written in my entire life was meaningless. Making so much noise. So much noise. It is a little quieter here. Mostly. Except for all the f***ing dead.


 

Evangeline Navarro: Why would there be power in an ice cave?
Liz Danvers: I guess that is the right question.


 

Evangeline Navarro: [to Danvers] I’m not going to a suspect with my backup armed and s**tfaced.


 

Liz Danvers: Where are you going to send me that’s further away than Ennis? What, to the North Pole with Santa?
Ted Connelly: It’s funny, when I sent you here, I was trying to help you. You were a f***ing mess.
Liz Danvers: That’s not why you sent me here. You were scared I was going to take your job.

Liz Danvers: What? What? Go on. say it.
Ted Connelly: Jake and Holden, it got worse.


 

Ted Connelly: Nobody wanted to work with you, Liz. Nobody wants to work with you now. You’re still a f***ing mess. Take a look around. It’s Christmas Eve, and you’re here busting my balls.
Liz Danvers: Yeah. And you’re here too, busting mine, aren’t you?


 

Evangeline Navarro: [after Julia’s death] Why are you alone?

Eddie Qavvik: [to Navarro] You’re not alone.


 

Liz Danvers: There’s nothing except us. We’re here, Navarro. Okay? Alone. The dead are gone. F***ing gone.


 

Evangeline Navarro: It takes us one by one. And you know who’s next?
Liz Danvers: Hey, listen to me. You’re an intelligent woman. You don’t have to believe that stuff.


 

Evangeline Navarro: [referring to Julia] I failed her, Liz. You don’t understand. It’s a curse. My mother had it too. Something calls us and we follow.
Liz Danvers: Stop it.
Evangeline Navarro: And it’s calling me now.


 

Liz Danvers: [referring to the Wheeler case] I was there. Now you saw something in that room. It was a ghost, or a some kind of spirit. You saw something.
Evangeline Navarro: I saw nothing.
Liz Danvers: You’re a liar. You’re a liar.


 

Evangeline Navarro: Dredge is a good place to hide.
Liz Danvers: You ever seen them when they were still working? When you were little?
Evangeline Navarro: The dredges? Yeah. They were amazing. Then the f***ing things just got abandoned. It’s still out there rotting, forgotten.
Liz Danvers: Aren’t we all?


 

Liz Danvers: [referring to Clark] Otis, where is he hiding?
Otis Heiss: He’s hiding in the Night Country. We’re all in the Night Country now.

 

5. Part 5

Liz Danvers: [referring to Clark] What did he want with you?
Otis Heiss: He was asking how I survived my injuries.
Liz Danvers: And how did you?
Otis Heiss: F***, man. Does it really look to you like I did?


 

Liz Danvers: [referring to the cave Annie had died in] Oh, it looks like somebody blew the entryway shut.
Evangeline Navarro: Because of course they f***ing did.


 

Peter Prior: Kayla kicked me out.
Liz Danvers: Oh. Wow, that’s hard. You need a place to stay or…?
Peter Prior: No. No. Moving in with you would basically fast track me to a divorce, so.


 

Leah Danvers: [referring to Danvers] She’s not good with people she cares about.

Kate McKitterick: Well, the good news for you and Mr. Heiss is that it turns out this isn’t a murder case after all.

Ted Connelly: Forensics came back. It was a weather event. “Slab avalanche”.


 

Liz Danvers: You’re saying the official word from Anchorage is they froze to death?
Kate McKitterick: Well, I know it’s a relief for all of us that there’s not some killer out there on the loose.

Liz Danvers: [to Kate] F*** you and your f***ing weather event.


 

Ted Connelly: This case is closed, Liz.
Liz Danvers: What happened to you? A woman was murdered.

Hank Prior: You didn’t ask me to kill anyone.


 

Evangeline Navarro: People call those caves “The Night Country”.


 

Liz Danvers: It’s over! Just let it go! Just let her go. It’s time.
Evangeline Navarro: No. You carry her now. Like I did, all this time. You carry Annie. Every day. You’re leaving her, alone in that cave, in the dark. You. She’s yours now.


 

Liz Danvers: Why are you doing this? Just to mess with me?
Leah Danvers: Not everything’s about you, Liz.


 

Leah Danvers: Liz. You know I haven’t given up on you.


 

Liz Danvers: [to Peter, referring to Hank] How many times I got to tell you? Your father only seems like an idiot.


 

Liz Danvers: Ask the real question, Prior. Go on.
Peter Prior: Did you and Navarro shoot William Wheeler, and make it look like a suicide?
Liz Danvers: You see? Smart as you are, you need to learn when to stop asking questions.


 

Liz Danvers: Meet me at my place. We’re going to where Annie died.
Evangeline Navarro: I thought you said the case was closed.
Liz Danvers: I was wrong.


 

Hank Prior: [referring to Otis] I’m going to do this the way you did Wheeler.

Hank Prior: You turned my kid against me. We can’t fix that, can we?


 

Hank Prior: [after he kills Otis] You should know something. I didn’t kill Annie K. I just moved her body. Blood is blood, Peter. Remember that.
[as Hank goes to shoot Liz, Peter shoots him in the head]


 

Peter Prior: [referring to Navarro] She can’t go into those caves alone.
Liz Danvers: I can’t leave you alone.
Peter Prior: She can’t make it in those caves alone. You know that.

Evangeline Navarro: Listen. You clean, you clean good. You know what to do.

I got no mercy left.

Bee: To you, the cops? That would change nothing. It’s always the same story with the same ending. Nothing ever happens. So, we told ourselves a different story, with a different ending.
Evangeline Navarro: How does this story go?


 

Evangeline Navarro: In this story, you killed the men?
Bee: Honey, they did it to themselves. When they dug in her home in the ice, when they killed her daughter in there, they woke her up.


 

Bee: If she wanted them, she would take them. And if not, their clothes were there for them. They’d be half-frozen, but they’d survive. But they didn’t though. I guess she wanted to take them. I guess she ate their f***ing dreams from the inside out and spit their frozen bones.


 

Bee: But it’s just a story. So, Siqinnaatchiaq, what will it be?
Evangeline Navarro: Stories are stories.
Liz Danvers: We just swung by to inform you that the forensics came back. Cause of death was a slab avalanche. This case is officially closed. Thought you’d want to know, seeing as they were your employers and all.


 

Liz Danvers: My best guess is it was a deal gone bad. Mr. Heiss got shot, and Hank, Officer Prior, when he went to dispose of the body, suffered some accident in the blizzard. You know, come summer, we’ll find him. We always do. Unless we don’t.


 

Agent: Don’t you find it odd that Clark died in the exact same manner as the Tsalal men?
Liz Danvers: Yes. Incredibly odd. But some questions just don’t have answers.


 

Agent: How do you plan on dealing with political unrest in Ennis?
Liz Danvers: Well, political unrest is not my job. This town was here long before the mine. Long before the APF. Long before Alaska was even named Alaska. I’m just going to show up, do my job every day, like I always do. What else is there?


 

Agent: So, you have no theories about what happened to Trooper Navarro?
Liz Danvers: Well, let’s put it this way. I don’t think you’ll find Evangeline Navarro out there on the ice.


 

Liz Danvers: This is Ennis. Nobody ever really leaves.
