What is he? He's a puppeteer and he's got a lot of inspiration all around him, and the fact that they can manipulate the expressions now with ease compared to what it used to be.

I'm not just somebody shuffling around in a monster suit. I'm a kind of puppeteer from the inside who is attempting through arm and body movements to give the creatures I play a sense of personality.

As Asian-Americans, we just don't often get the chance to tell the story from a leading person's perspective. And so I took jobs where they came, and they were always in the ensemble, and if it required me to play multiple instruments I did that, and if it was as a puppeteer, I did that. That's just how I was cast; that's how I was employed.

John Milton: [in his master room, inside his tower] right about one thing, I have been watching, I couldn't help myself, watching waiting and holding my breath I'm no puppeteer I don't make things happen, it doesn't work like that
Kevin Lomax: [pointing a gun at him] What did you do to Mary Ann?
John Milton: [after Kevin shoots John

seven times] Step it son that's good you've got to hold on to that fury that's the last thing to go that's the final hiding place, it's the final fig leaf
Kevin Lomax: Who are you?
John Milton: Never lost a case, why? What do you think? Because you're so fucking good? Yes, but why?
Kevin Lomax: Because you're my father

John Milton: I'm a little more than that, awfully hot in that courtroom wasn't it? What's the game plan? It was a nice run it had to close out some day, nobody wins them all
Kevin Lomax: Mary Ann she knew it so you destroyed her
John Milton: You blaming me for Mary Ann? I hope you're kidding you could've saved Mary Ann whenever you

wanted all she wanted was love but you were too busy
Kevin Lomax: That's a lie
John Milton: Mary Ann in New York, face it you started looking to better deal her the minute you got here
Kevin Lomax: That's not true, you don't know what we had
John Milton: [playfully] hey, I'm on your side

Kevin Lomax: [shouting, pointing at John] You're a liar
John Milton: There's nothing out there for you, don't be such a fucking chump stop deluding yourself I told you to take care of your wife, I said the world would understand.Who told to pull out all the stops on the Getty's case?
Kevin Lomax: I know what you did, you set me up


John Milton: Who made you make that choice? And Moyez the direction you took Popes, Swamis, snake handlers all feeding at the same trough who's ideas were those?
Kevin Lomax: You played me, it was your test
John Milton: And Cullen knowing he was guilty and seeing those pictures, you put that lying bitch on the stand

Kevin Lomax: You brought me in, you put me there you made her lie
John Milton: I don't do that, vanity is so basic, its self-love, it's the all-natural opiate, it's not that you didn't care for Mary Ann it's just that you were a little more involved with someone else which was yourself, Don't be too hard on yourself you wanted something more believe me
