A scene from The Punisher 2004
Frank Castle

(Castle shows up at a press conference at police headquarters.)

Hey, Jimmy.

Jimmy Weeks

Jesus, Frank! Where have you been?

Frank Castle

I got shot. I woke up. That's what I remember. You subpoena me, that's what I'll say. It's been five months since my family was killed. I don't see one man in jail.

Chief Morris

Obviously, you're upset–

Frank Castle

Upset? Is that the word? I used to get upset when I had a flat tire. I used to get upset when a plane was delayed. I used to get upset when the Yankees won the Series. So if that's what "upset" means, then how do I feel now? If you know the word, tell me, because I don't.

Chief Morris

Castle, if you're not gonna cooperate, we're gonna have to...

Jimmy Weeks

Wait, wait. This man's been through hell. Who's he supposed to trust right now. Let's get him to a safe house.

Frank Castle

I don't want a safe house, Jimmy. I don't want Witness Protection. I don't want anything. All I wanna know is who gave me up. Don't be a stranger, Jim.
