Motion to Delay (2018)

Katherine Heigl: Samantha Wheeler

Quotes 

• Samantha Wheeler : Harvey doesn't have the balls to come in here and ask me himself. He sent you.

  Donna Paulsen : He didn't send anybody. I'm here on my own.

  Samantha Wheeler : Then you may have internalized the patriarchal system here, but I have not.

  Donna Paulsen : I haven't internalized anything. I'm not here at the behest of any man. I'm here on my own, woman to woman, asking you to take the long view and wait.

  Samantha Wheeler : I'm sure you think that's true. But did it occur to you to ask Alex to step down before you came to me? Because that's what I mean by patriarchy.

  Donna Paulsen : For the record, I did think to ask Alex. And I chose to ask you. And I did that because it comes down to who the promise was made to first. Not the gender of the person it was made to.
