I'm in the power seat here, okay, and I've made a decision! Everything bad that happens to us happens to us because some of us get our rocks off by keeping secrets. Therefore, in conclusion, I've decided no more secrets.

Hey, what if it were you? What if you had died in that house and not Wes? I would be doing exactly what Laurel's doing!
I don't think you would.
Of course I would!
No, because Laurel loved Wes, and you don't even know what love is.
You have done so much worse than this, Frank. You have framed people, murdered them, even when they were considered completely innocent. Meanwhile, all I'm trying to do is put my father in jail for the actual crimes he actually committed. That's not crazy. It's just right.
I can't do this anymore. I can't keep forgiving you for all the horrible, sick things that you do. And the only reason I did it before was because I knew you'd survived hell, like me, but no more.
It's not that I'm like you. It's that I love you. Isaac helped me see it, that all of this, every insane thing that we do to each other, it's a form of love!
Stop saying that word, Bonnie!
This is me knowing what I want. And I know that I love you and that I need you, and maybe you can love me, too, and that's okay. It's all okay.

Anna Mae Harkness. Born in Memphis in 1967. Attended junior college for two years, then university, then law school, where she was one of just twenty women in her class and one of only two black students in the entire school. And in an alumnae interview, she is quoted as saying a career goal was to argue a case before the United States Supreme Court.
And win.
You know this isn't about a bucket list or saving my reputation. It's about knowing that I've done something that matters. And I know that you want it, too, because I can see it in you. It's why I asked my family to be here and why I asked you to be here. Because winning this case will matter to me like... nothing in my life ever has. So stop worrying about me. Stop handling me. And let me do my job the best way I know how.

Okay.
Michaela, please tell me you didn't.
