Reagan Ridley is one of the main characters in Inside Job. She is the daughter of Rand Ridley, the CEO of the company where Reagan works. Reagan is a child prodigy who first comes off as a cynical and insufferably brilliant inventor. Her social awkwardness is evident in her interactions with others, which prevents her from connecting emotionally with anyone.
However, her character development reveals multiple layers where viewers learn that Reagan is actually a brave human with a genius mind who does not want to hurt anyone (most of the time). Regardless of her personality, viewers love how Reagan looks at the world and expresses her views.
Reagan has a lot to say on the show, and most remarks are downright funny (even if she doesn’t realize they are). Here are the most famous Reagan Ridley quotes that will entertain you!
