Quotes
-
Luke Cage : Sweet Christmas.
-
Jessica Jones : Do you know any drug dealers?
Luke Cage : I own a bar in Hell's Kitchen. What do you think?
-
Jessica Jones : So, just how unbreakable are you?
Luke Cage : On a scale of "I don't know" to "I'd rather not find out"?
Jessica Jones : So if I were to bite your finger, with all of my considerable strength...
Luke Cage : Depends on how considerable. So don't go getting any ideas about my extremities.
-
Luke Cage : So, what else you do? Can you punch through a wall? Can you stop a moving car?
Jessica Jones : A slow-moving car.
Luke Cage : Can you fly?
Jessica Jones : It's more like jumping... and then falling.
Luke Cage : Okay, there's you, me... the big green dude and his crew. You think there's more of our kind out there?
-
Luke Cage : I protect myself and what's mine. Being a hero puts a target on your back.
Jessica Jones : Been there, done that.
Luke Cage : The hero gig?
Jessica Jones : I gave it a shot once.
Luke Cage : Tell me there was a costume and you still got it.
-
Luke Cage : Does anyone else know about your abilities?
Jessica Jones : A couple. I'm not hiding, but I'm not advertising.
Luke Cage : People find out, they either come at you with a noose or their hands out. I got no use for either.
-
Luke Cage : Just say it woman.
Jessica Jones : Say what?
Luke Cage : Whatever it is you've not been saying since I met you.
Jessica Jones : I haven't... not said anything
Luke Cage : Is it a racial thing?
[Jessica give him a look]
Luke Cage : I'm kidding.
[pause]
Luke Cage : Is it?
-
Luke Cage : You know somebody else like us?
Jessica Jones : No. Not like us.
Luke Cage : Well, you're the first I've met. Were you born this way?
Jessica Jones : Nope. Accident. You?
Luke Cage : Experiment.
-
Luke Cage : It's nice to grub out with a girl who likes to eat.
Jessica Jones : Well, we had quite a workout. I've never done it with someone who has, you know...
Luke Cage : Gifts?
Jessica Jones : Yes, well, you are very gifted.
Luke Cage : Likewise.
-
Jessica Jones : I need a drug.
Luke Cage : Any drug? You're gonna have to be more specific than that.
Jessica Jones : It's called Sufentanil. It's... used to knock people out for surgery.
Luke Cage : Can't help you there. Is that really why you came here at this hour?
Jessica Jones : Well, I figured, NSA and all, you wouldn't wanna talk about this over the phone.
-
Luke Cage : [seeing the cuts on Jessica's face] Rough night?
Jessica Jones : I did something.
Luke Cage : Looks like it.
Jessica Jones : [he opens the door to his apartment] I can't come in. Ever. This isn't right.
Luke Cage : Feels right to me.
Jessica Jones : I have business. Unfinished. And you've been through too much for me to...
Luke Cage : Can't handle a dead wife, huh? Do what you gotta do.
-
Jessica Jones : What if there was someone else out there... but his ability was to make people do whatever he wanted?
Luke Cage : You mean like mind control?
Jessica Jones : Or exactly mind control.
Luke Cage : Is this about your case the cops grilled me about? The girl who shot her folks in your building, claims some guy made her do it?
Jessica Jones : Maybe she's telling the truth.
Luke Cage : Maybe she's nuts. You go into a bar any night of the week, you'll find some crazies arguing with the voices in their heads.
Jessica Jones : What if I believed her? Would that change your mind?
Luke Cage : I'd believe that you believed it.
Jessica Jones : Says the man with unbreakable skin.
Luke Cage : You can see my skin. You can touch it. But you got no idea what my mind is thinking.
Jessica Jones : I think I do.
Luke Cage : Okay, then. I got no idea what you're thinking.
Jessica Jones : I think you do.
