Lila Kaye: Mother Superior

Quotes 

• Mother Superior : [to Cedric]  The men who send their daughters to the Lady of the Green do so because they trust we will educate them and protect their virtue and they have empowered me to go to any lengths - any lengths at all - to uphold that trust and I do so... ruthlessly. It would be in your best interest to get well soon, young man.

• Cedric Grey : You're late. I was worried you were having doubt. Come here.

  [Cedric turns and sees, not one of the young convent girls, but Mother Superior] 

  Mother Superior : Don't be alarmed, dear boy. I haven't come here to harm you.

  Cedric Grey : I was just, ah...

  Mother Superior : Shh. Shh. Please, sit down. I've wanted you from the very moment I first laid eyes on you.

  Cedric Grey : You have?

  Mother Superior : Yes! I want to devour you. Hours of delicious love-making. Not just a night, but every night!

  Cedric Grey : Now when you say "every night", does that include King's holidays?

  Mother Superior : Oh, take me, Cedric!

  [Cedric bolts through the second-floor window and crashes to the convent's grounds below] 

• Robin : Mother Mary Catherine!

  Mother Superior : Are you lost, dear?

  Robin : No. I came to check on the sick boy to see if he needed anything.

  Mother Superior : He's gone, my dear. Seems he had the most amazing recovery.
