What happens when a group of people with particular skills come together for a deadly mission? That’s the story Amazon Original Hunters is telling, with its band of New York City revenge seekers looking to take down a rising Fourth Reich in late 1970s America.
Now, let’s be honest, in a show that has an ensemble cast and overlapping stories, it always hard to grasp onto names and backstories. But one character from the show who stands out the most and you’d find it hard to forget is Sister Harriet.
Sister Harriet is introduced as a nun who used to work for MI6 before joining this group, though we’re not given much background beyond that in the early going. Played by Kate Mulvaney, the resident British assassin is cranky and doesn’t mince words, and she only cares about results, which she usually manages to get. Her words hit hard and stay with you beyond the duration of the series. If you have seen the show, you know what we mean.
And for the uninitiated, below are five dialogues said by Sister Harriet, that make her the most badass character on the show:
1. While everyone is brainstorming of ways to figure out what message a Nazi record artist was trying to deliver to his superiors, Sister Harriet jumps right in and does, literally, the dirty work by going through his dustbin.
2. The group is trying to fathom where Nazi owned-locker ‘630’ in the bank was and what they hid there. While everyone is sharing their ideas, Sister Harriet says something as cryptic as this and leaves the room to... you guessed it, right – get results.
3. Ring-leader Meyer Offerhand sends the resident codebreaker Jonah Heidelbaum (Logan Lerman) with Sister Harriet on a stakeout, who complains about it the job of ‘fat cops’. In her most natural state, she asks him to shut up.
4. We see Harriet in a phone booth waiting for a call. When the phone rings, she picks up, and says this.
5. When Joe Muzushima, played by Louis Ozawa, attacks her, she is unmoved and just says this.
These are just some of the best dialogues that we liked a lot! If you you find more of these while streaming Hunters on Amazon Prime Video, let us know in the comments! Shalom!
