Our Kind of People (TV Series)

It Is Not Light We Need, But Fire (2022)

Joe Morton: Teddy Franklin

Quotes 

• Teddy Franklin : Both you and I are stubborn, bull-headed, and laser-focused on what we want for our family. So I will help Piggy. Additionally, I will set up a generous trust for Nikki and ample seed money for Eve's Crown, enough for you to handle your own distribution.

  Angela Vaughn : Well, what do you want in return?

  Teddy Franklin : Leave Oak Bluffs for good.

• Raymond Dupont : You know what these are, don't you? These are the transfer documents that will return Jack's Darmon shares back to their rightful place. With me. I do hate the fact that my business partner's death made these mine again, but, oh, well. Winning is winning.

  Teddy Franklin : And gloating is for dilettantes.

  Raymond Dupont : Look, we've been going through this for years. You've never liked me, and I'm okay with that.

  Teddy Franklin : This is not about feelings. This is about business, about legacy, about leaving behind a solid foundation to build upon.

  Raymond Dupont : And this is why I prefer taking breakfast in my suite. You may own Jack's shares. I own the company. Well, whether you like it or not, we're family. Hurting me hurts your daughter, hurts your grandkids. But you know what? You have that ego to where you need to snuff out the ones you love to make you feel like the man. And you want to call me weak. All you do is hide behind your money. You dangle a carrot in front of your own daughter to buy her love. You hid your wife away because you couldn't handle her illness. Now look at you.

  [CHUCKLES] 

  Raymond Dupont : You want to call me weak. All of that is weak as hell.

  Raymond Dupont : For now. This is only the first step.

  Raymond Dupont : You keep thinking that.

• Teddy Franklin : I tried to do right by you, but I'd be lying if I claimed to have executed that plan. People who are loved never really die. They live on through those they have touched.
