- Catherine Caswell: It's all a game of chess isn't it? Playing out the pawns in your head. Should I sacrifice the rook or the king? Will you sacrifice me?
- Catherine Caswell: Need a little deniability, Graham? Point A leads to point B, leads to finger on the trigger.
- Lucian Carver: Adam.
- [beat]
- Lucian Carver: Catherine's had a full life: art, love, intrigue. Sometimes with a life like that, it starts to get confusing. Catherine was confused. Her diary said that.
- Adam Stafford: Where is she?
- Lucian Carver: [beat, mockingly confused] Isn't she waiting for you?
- Catherine Caswell: I'm going away for a little while.
- Adam Stafford: Where?
- Catherine Caswell: I don't know
- [laughs]
- Catherine Caswell: . India, maybe? Someplace exotic and foreign where I can't understand the language.
- Adam Stafford: Why?
- Catherine Caswell: Because I can't--
- [pause]
- Catherine Caswell: Life is about meaning. You know, finding the things in life that have meaning: children, art, love. And I don't... have any of that anymore.
- Adam Stafford: You have me.
- Catherine Caswell: I know I do. But sometimes one person isn't enough. You put all your desires and your dreams into them and then... they're gone.
- Adam Stafford: If I was older...
- Catherine Caswell: Then you wouldn't be you.
- [beat]
- Catherine Caswell: Hope: it's something that gets lost as you get older, and I need to find it again.
- Adam Stafford: Is that some sort of life lesson or something?
- Catherine Caswell: Something like that.
