(FREDDIE) All that fuss about Dr. Lecter. Will even tried to kill him. Now they’re back in therapy together. And another former patient is dead.

(HANNIBAL) Do you know what an imago is, Will?

(HANNIBAL) I'm your psychiatrist, Will. I only want what's best for you.

(WILL) You wanted me to embrace my nature, doctor. Just following the urges I kept down for so long, cultivating them as the inspirations they are.

(WILL) Maybe he admires their ability to connect the way human minds can't. (HANNIBAL) Yours can.

(WILL) I felt so betrayed by you. All that felt real to me was the betrayal. I trusted you. I needed to trust you. (HANNIBAL) You can trust me.

(WILL) I would be a good father. Hannibal smiles warmly. He imagines Will would.

(HANNIBAL) I believe that's what they call a ‘mic drop.’ You dropped the mic, Will, but here you are having to come back and pick it up again.

(WILL) Ding-dong, the Dragon's dead. (HANNIBAL) Are congratulations in order?

(HANNIBAL) When life becomes maddeningly polite… Think about me. Think about me, Will, don't worry about me.

(HANNIBAL) Are we no longer on a first-name basis? (WILL) I'm more comfortable the less personal we are.

(HANNIBAL) I would have liked to have shown you Florence, Will.

(ALANA) Friendship with Hannibal is blackmail elevated to the level of love.

(WILL) I do feel closer to Hannibal here. God only knows where I would be without him.

(HANNIBAL) An imago is an image of a loved one buried in the unconscious, carried with us all our lives. (WILL) An ideal. (HANNIBAL) The concept of an ideal always searching for an objective reality to match. I have a concept of you just as you have a concept of me.

(WILL) I'd say this makes us even. I sent someone to kill you, you sent someone to kill me. Even-steven. (HANNIBAL) Consider it an act of reciprocity. One positive action begets another.

(WILL) Are you expecting someone? (HANNIBAL) Only you.

(BEDELIA) Hannibal and I both been traumatized by dangerous patients. He had his Will Graham. I had mine. (JACK) Hannibal doesn't strike me as particularly traumatized.

(WILL) You're not my friend. The light from friendship won't reach us for a million years. That's how far away from friendship we are.

(WILL) You're supposed to be my paddle. (HANNIBAL) I am.
