Keith vs Angelo and the defectors (Fortress)


 * As Angelo is leading the defectors out of the city, they’re confronted by Keith Vasey at the top of a staircase. He asks what they’re doing, and Yaz reveals to him that they’re defecting to Nancy’s side, her own reason being the death of the Colonel*

Keith:“So that’s your solution? Kill Theo by siding with Nancy Brodmir? I don’t know if you remember but we thought the Colonel was dead for six years because of that woman. You’ve danced with the devil before sweetheart, and remember how that turned out? Want me to refresh your memory? Well tough shit because you’re hearing it anyway. Remember Anton and Caitlin? He got his throat turned out and she got raped senseless every day for months. How about Butch? Y’know, friendly hobo, got along with everyone, burned alive just for that bastard Trent’s amusement. Think about Lilly, who just about made it through what he did to her…and now she’s dead, murdered by your new pal Nancy. Just think of what you're going into here darlin'. Make no mistakes, Trent was a fucker of the Grade A variety, but he's a playground bully compared to her. She'll ruin you...

And you...well, you’re not off the hook either Bill, I expected better from you mate. What do you think this is, some kind of fantasy? Topple the monarch and unleash some sort of national revolution? I’ve always agreed with you on the political stuff, we both know that, but this is just madness. I mean, what would Charlotte think? The pair of you used to pour over those books for hours - Orwell, Marx, Bakunin - you had a vision. And now what are you? A petulant child, you can’t get your own way down here, so you’re throwing the board off the table. Well done, big man, well fuckin’ done.

And as for you Lionel, well, you saw her first hand didn’t you. You saw what she did to those prisoners, what she did to your sister, what her and Dodd did to your parents. You want this woman in charge, be my guest, and we can add to her collection of dead Agners.”

Angelo: “Alright that’s enough, we haven’t got time for this, get out of the way Keith.”

Keith: “And what are you gonna do, Angel Eyes? Murder me just like you murdered Pa-“

*Angelo shoots Keith in the leg, knocking him down the steps, and leads the others away*
