Obsession (1998)

Nancy Travis: Darci Mason

Quotes 

• Darci Mason : You couldn't leave me alone, could you, Winslow?

  The Toyman : You were made for me, Darci. You know that.

  Darci Mason : You may have given me life, Winslow, but I'm not going to settle for this miserable existence.

  [cocking a toy gun, she starts to malfunction] 

  Darci Mason : I... can't.

  The Toyman : Of course you can't. You could never hurt me.

  Darci Mason : I want to... so badly.

  The Toyman : It's not part of your program, my love. You don't have the circuitry.

  [she tries to run away, but his sheriff grabs her with a lasso gun] 

  The Toyman : This time, things will be different. Everything will be just perfect. And I can make it that way with a few small adjustments.

  Darci Mason : I'll never love you. Never.

  The Toyman : I know there's a place for me in your heart.

  [holding up and whirring a drill] 

  The Toyman : I just have to find it.

• The Toyman : Oh, this is just a small setback, Darci. From now on, we'll always be together. Always.

  [she kicks a control panel of his helicopter] 

  The Toyman : What are you doing?

  Darci Mason : I can't hurt you, but I can destroy your toys.

  The Toyman : [she kicks the panel again]  NOOOO!

• Clark Kent : [searching Darci's apartment]  No photos, no letters. Not a hint of her past. What's your story, Darci?

  [opening the refrigerator and seeing it's empty] 

  Clark Kent : I know these girls have to watch their figures, but not even a diet soda?

  Darci Mason : [entering]  Hungry?

  Clark Kent : Uh...

  Darci Mason : Didn't I see you at the fashion show? You some kind of stalker?

  Clark Kent : No. I'm a reporter.

  Darci Mason : [picking up the phone and dialing 911]  Even worse. At least stalkers are honest about what they do.

  Clark Kent : I'm also a friend of Lana's.

  [Darci hangs up] 

  Clark Kent : She and I want to help you.

  Darci Mason : I'm a big girl, and I can take care of myself. Believe me.

  Clark Kent : After what happened yesterday, I'm a little skeptical...

  Darci Mason : [hearing a distant booming getting closer]  What's that?

  Clark Kent : [a giant wind-up boxing kangaroo leaps onto her balcony]  Get back.

• Lana Lang : That's some makeover. Who are you, Darci? What are you?

  Darci Mason : Do you remember a doll they used to make? The Darci doll?

  [seeing Lana react] 

  Darci Mason : I thought you would. When you were a child, it was every little girl's favorite. I'll bet you had the entire collection.

  Lana Lang : You're right. No wonder I chose you for my star model. But where did you come from?

  Darci Mason : Winslow Schott's toy factory.

  Lana Lang : The Toyman?

  Darci Mason : He wanted a companion. Someone with whom he could share his life.

  Lana Lang : Hasn't he ever heard of the personals?

  Darci Mason : You don't understand. He kept me prisoner in that arcade, like I was something you wind up or plug in. There's so much to see in the world, so much to do, and all Winslow wanted was to play with toys. I have to stop him once and for all, Lana. I wasn't supposed to feel this way. I wasn't supposed to feel anything, but I do. I guess he made me too perfect.
