Nina: What happened? Thomas Leroy: She walked into the street and got hit by a car. And you know what? I'm almost sure she did it on purpose. Nina: How do you know? Thomas Leroy: Because everything Beth does comes from within. From some dark impulse....
Thomas Leroy: That was me seducing you. It needs to be the other way around.
Thomas Leroy: Thank you, Nina! It's very nice. It's very nice, but I knew the white swan wouldn't be your problem. The real work would be your metamorphosis into her evil twin. I know I saw a flash of her yesterday, so get ready to give me more of th...
Thomas Leroy: What's going on? Nina: [crying] Lily! You made her my alternate? Thomas Leroy: Well there's always an alternate. Lily is the best choice. Nina: No, but she wants my role. Thomas Leroy: Every dancer in the world wants your role. Nina: No...
Thomas Leroy: Honestly, would you fuck that girl?
Lily: A rough start, huh? Must have been pretty humiliating. Nina: Get out of my room! Lily: See, I'm just worried about the next act. I'm not sure you're feeling up to it. Nina: Stop. Please stop! Lily: How about I dance the black swan for you?
Nina: It's my turn to be the Black Swan!
Thomas Leroy: I don't want there to be any boundaries between us. Nina: No, me neither. Thomas Leroy: So, you got a boyfriend? Nina: No. Thomas Leroy: And you've had many in the past? Nina: A few but no one serious. Thomas Leroy: You're not a virgin ...

Erica: You're in a good mood. Nina: He promised to feature me more this season. Erica: Well, he certainly should. You've been there long enough and you're the most dedicated dancer in the company.
Lily: I don't think we ever officially met. I'm Lily. Nina: Hi, Nina. Lily: Yes, our new swan queen! You must be so excited. Are you freaking out? Nina: [chuckles] Yeah. Lily: Yeah, it's okay. I would be losing my mind.
Erica: No! Please! You're not well! Nina: [yelling] Let go of me! Erica: You can't handle this! Nina: I can't? I'm the Swan Queen, you're the one who never left the corps! Erica: [yelling] Nina!
Nina: Should I go again? Thomas Leroy: No thanks Nina! I've seen enough.
Thomas Leroy: Go get warmed up! Lily: No it's okay, I'm good!
