“When I was ten-years-old, I killed my best friend, Tommy Hanley. All the folks in town thought he died of falling out a tree. But the fact of the matter is, I beat him with a club and drug him in the woods so's it'd look that way.”
David Dunard - Harry Bob Ferguson

“Lorraine, you have been in Mr. Smith's arms. Nothing like that must ever happen again, it embarrasses me. You're my wife, and he's a murderer.”

“- Tom Frost: They say you murdered your wife. Is that true?
- Bill Lee: Who told you that?

- Bill Lee: It wasn't murder. It was an accident.”
Sir Ian Holm - Tom Frost
Peter Weller - Bill Lee

“- Tom Frost: There are no accidents. For example, I've been killing my own wife slowly over a period of years.
- Bill Lee: What?
- Tom Frost: Well, not intentionally. I mean, on the level of conscious intention, it's insane, monstrous.”
Sir Ian Holm - Tom Frost
Peter Weller - Bill Lee

- Vince Larkin: [while in the surveillance truck] That's William Bedford, aka "Billy Bedlam".
- Smoke: The mass murderer?
- Vince Larkin: The same. He caught his wife in bed with another man. Left her alone, drove four towns over to his wife's family's house. Killed her parents, her brothers, her sisters, even her dog.
