Christopher Jacot: Alex Bellows

Quotes 

• Alex Bellows : We're not going in anymore.

  Cleo Bellows : What?

  Alex Bellows : This has totally consumed us, Cleo. We keep going in like we're gonna get anywhere. You almost got killed, and what do we have to show for it, huh?

• Alex Bellows : Oh, great. You're not AT the oracle, Cleo. You ARE the oracle.

• [Cleo tells Telemachus his father lives and will return home] 

  Drossos : You know you're not supposed to speak directly to the petitioners.

  Cleo Bellows : But he wanted to know what would happen.

  Drossos : Your visions can mislead you. You must rely on your priests to interpret what you see. We ensure that no one has cause to doubt the oracle.

  Alex Bellows : [watching from back at the house]  This guy's the original politician.

• Cleo Bellows : [having seen a vision of her father]  I saw him.

  Alex Bellows : You wanted to see him.

  Cleo Bellows : You think I'm imagining all this?

  Alex Bellows : I don't now, but if you saw exactly what you expected to see, I mean, maybe this is just a little too easy.

• Alex Bellows : You heard what the priest said.

  Cleo Bellows : Yeah, where are those guys? Maybe they can help. I thought they were supposed to write down everything I say.

  Alex Bellows : Yeah, well, maybe they went to go invent the tape recorder.

• Cleo Bellows : [climbing back atop the dais]  I'm getting sick of sitting on this thing. I get enough of that at home.

  Alex Bellows : Nah, don't worry about it. He's just putting you in your place.

  Cleo Bellows : Hardy-har.

  Alex Bellows : I don't trust this guy, though.

  Cleo Bellows : Well, this is his life, tending this snake pit, listening to me all day. Could make anyone a little weird.

  Alex Bellows : Oh, believe me, I know. I won't take it personally, though.

• Cleo Bellows : While those guys are gone, let's see if we can get through to Dad again.

  Alex Bellows : No, hold on. Wait.

  Cleo Bellows : [sighs]  What? You have a question you wanna ask? I don't think the oracle knows where Elvis is hiding out.

• Alex Bellows : Maybe if you went in as a priest, you'd be able to talk to the oracle without sacrificing a goat.

  Cleo Bellows : Party pooper.
