Harry O Season 1 Episode 11

Writer: Stephen Kandel

Quote 1
NIELSON: Flexing your muscles, Mr. Orwell?
ORWELL: Yeah, I gotta childish streak.

Quote 2
ORWELL: It's the skill the rich are born with--the ability to shut out anything unpleasant. George was dead so he was already shut out. Now I was being shut out. She had 80,000 golden acres and a beautiful day. She didn't need us. We didn't exist for her.

Quote 3
RANKIN: Reasonable man.
GUTIERREZ: Lucky too. Glenna Nielson never invited me to dinner.
RANKIN: Not likely she'll invite you to much of anything.
GUTIERREZ: I can dream, can't I?
RANKIN: Takes a lot out of a man—dreams like that.

Quote 4
NIELSON: …I envy you that. I miss caring.
ORWELL: I've never been able to just turn it on and then turn it off.
NIELSON: You didn't go to the right schools.
ORWELL: Bennington? Vassar?
NIELSON: Smith.
ORWELL: You're right. They turned down my application.
Nielson: They taught me to turn down things in three languages. I know how to avoid someone in French, Italian, and German.
ORWELL: Geshundeit.
[Nielsen, taking Orwell's hand, speaks a German phrase.]
ORWELL, obviously not understanding: I'll go along with that.
NIELSON, translating: "They give the devil a finger, he takes the whole hand."
