"Once a stiff, always a stiff."
Beatrice "Tris" Prior I'm not brave, Mom. I pretend that I am. I want people to think that I am, but I'm not. I'm really, really scared and... Maybe we are, actually, what's wrong in this world. Divergents. I never wanted any of this. You and dad and Caleb and Four. I can't help but think that if I was normal. We would all still be together. Mom, I don't want to be Divergent anymore. I just want to feel safe again.
Beatrice "Tris" Prior It's a miraculous amount of people you managed to murder.
Tris I just wanted to do something different.
Yeah. [takes off Tris' scarf on her hair] Well, that’s definitely different.
Tris You don’t like it?
No, I like it. I like it a lot. I’m just surprised, that’s all.
Caleb Beatrice, you’re not being serious, right?
Tris No, I am being serious. I’m not gonna stop until she’s dead.
Caleb Tris, you can’t just go around killing people.
Peter No, she’s right. Listen to your sister. [turns to Tris] Tris, I think you should go to Erudite and kill Jeanine yourself. I’ll stay with Caleb so that you don’t get him killed too.
Tris What?
Peter Come on, you know. Like you did your parents.
[Infuriated, Tris lunges at Peter with a knife and fights him.]
Was I not clear that the terms of your sanctuary here included non-violence?
Well I can guarantee you nothing like this will ever happen again.
Well be that as it may, you can no longer stay here with us. Your presence, it’s just too disruptive.
Tris The truth is that our sanctuary was never gonna last very long here anyways, was it? With you not standing up to Jeanine.
You don’t understand us at all.
Tris No, I do understand you. I understand that you think you can stay out of this but you can’t. One day she’s gonna show up and Jeanine is gonna take whatever power you think you have away from you.
Tris, Tris. [turns to Johanna] Look, Johanna, we... we need a little more time. We need to find out where the rest of the Dauntless are, then we can leave.
And then what? Attack Erudite? I will not be a party to violence.
No one is asking you to. We just need a few more days.
One.
Tris "One", what?
One more chance. See, to be Amity is to forgive; others, and yourself. You’re hurting, Tris. And my heart goes out to you. I know what it’s like to stand helpless while you lose the ones you love but killing Jeanine is not going to bring your mother back. I know you’re angry, but you’re letting it consume you.
Tris I can't let anyone else die because of me.
No one else is going to die because of you.
Tris You know, I'm just one person. I'm not worth it.
No, you are worth it. You are worth it to me. You have to promise me that you're not going to leave. I want you to promise me that you won't go.
Tris What are you?
I’m you, Tris. I’m the real you. [breaks through the glass wall and pushes Tris against the wall smashing it]
Tris I’m not gonna fight you.
I’ll make you fight me!
Tris You’re not me!
I am. I’m what they see when they look at you. [punches Tris and causes the wall of the room to break apart. She then kicks Tris, breaking the walls further.] You killed Will and your parents. You’re deadly.
Tris Enough!
No one’s gonna love you, Tris! They’re never even gonna miss you. This world will be better off without you! One less Divergent ruining everything. And no one will ever, ever forgive you for what you’ve done.
Tris You’re wrong. [calms down and lowers her hands] Because I will.
[The simulation Tris charges at her and just as she jumps to attack Tris, she disintegrates and ending the simulation.]
