Brooke Smith: Jacqueline Nimball

Quotes 

• Mary McGowan : Hey, Buffalo Bill, why are you doing this to us?

  Jacqueline Nimball : Us? Who's "us"? The shrew wife who wouldn't let her husband have any fun? The son who never wrote, never called, never visited his lonely, ailing father in prison? You really think you're a pair worthy of sympathy? Or mercy?

  Mary McGowan : You knew my husband.

  Jacqueline Nimball : I worked maintenance at the penitentiary. He was a brilliant, dedicated man. A once-in-a-lifetime mind. He graced me with everything he knew. And, in exchange, I promised to carry out his wishes. Even after he died.

  Mary McGowan : Oh. So you're his patsy.

  Jacqueline Nimball : His apprentice. His protege. And the executor of his final wishes. To punish you, if you broke the rules. I'm gonna kill your son. I'm gonna make you watch, just like Winslow wanted. Then I'm gonna kill you, too.

• Jacqueline Nimball : I have your mother, but you can trade your life for hers. She's hanging around at the old Wiggins Game Company factory. But hurry, Junior, the pressure is on.

  Mary McGowan : Winn, don't come here.

  Supergirl : I'll go.

  Mon-El : Me, too.

  Winn Schott : Not without me.

  James Olsen : That's exactly what she wants.

  Winn Schott : I've spent my entire life trying to fight off the part of me that's like my dad, but now... now I can use it. Let's go.

• Jacqueline Nimball : Heat vision, freeze breath, and so many points of articulation? I think I'll keep you.

  [Supergirl is enclosed in a life-size plastic package for action figures] 

  Jacqueline Nimball : It's so rare to find a vintage superhero in mint condition.

• Jacqueline Nimball : Well, if it isn't Toyman Jr. barreling headlong into danger. I see your father left you none of his brains.

  Winn Schott : Oh, really? 'Cause I-I see that he left you none of his... his showmanship.

  [Jacqueline shrugs her confusion] 

  Winn Schott : What, after all this you're just gonna shoot us?

  Jacqueline Nimball : Most important thing your father taught me, stick the landing.

  Winn Schott : Really? Because what I got was "more is more."

• Mary McGowan : I don't know why you hate me or my son, but it stops right here. I'm pointing a gun at you, by the way. In case that's a thing you'd be interested in knowing.

  Jacqueline Nimball : A gun. That's a dangerous toy. But mine are worse.
