Aeschylus
BANSHEE ORIGINS 4x02 - "Aeschylus" [DOORS CLOSING.]
[GUN COCKS.]
We're closed.
I understand my physical appearance may be unsettling, but I can assure you that my ties to that movement were severed long ago.
Unfortunately the removal of my tattoos is taking longer than anticipated.
Severed long ago, huh? How long? - Years now, sir.
- How many years? A little more than five.
My name is Kurt Bunker, sir.
And I know who you are, Mr.
Bates.
Your right hook is legendary around these parts.
As is the Bunker family name.
So you understand why I maintain some reservation.
I do.
If I was you, I've already pulled that trigger.
But if you wanna just hold that while I'm here I wouldn't be offended.
[SIGHS.]
What makes a neo-Nazi stop being a neo-Nazi? [EXHALES.]
Wisdom comes only through suffering.
- Aeschylus said that.
- Aeschylus, huh? - Who the hell is "Aeschylus?" - I don't know.
Dyin' old man said it to me once.
It's stuck.
Can't be easy trying to deny something as - written all over your skin.
- No, it's not.
- What are you drinkin'? - Soda's fine.
No offence, but you look like shit.
I just got here from Florida.
[CHUCKLES.]
The "armpit of America?" Well, far enough from here.
[CLEARS THROAT.]
It's all I was concerned about.
- You're running from something? - Was.
I'm done runnin'.
You wouldn't have any job here, would you? [CHUCKLES.]
Look around here, son.
Does it look like I need some help around here? You know anyone who's hiring? What line of work you do? I was the sherrif's deputy down in Florida.
Yeah well I think maybe you should look for a different line of work.
