Isabelle quotes from Madam Secretary

(At George's memorial service.) Munsey hardly even knew the guy.

Juliet

Sat him behind a desk.

Elizabeth

For his own safety.

Still. He irks me.

Elizabeth

You know what irks me? His ex-wife acting like the grieving widow. She left him for her personal trainer over a decade ago. (The three dissolve into quiet laughter)

Henry

Hey. Hey. Are you 12? Do I need to separate you?

When did Henry become this guy?

Elizabeth

He's a Cradle Catholic. He gets jumpy around priests.

Henry

Hey (Points up to God to imply he is watching as the girls laugh again)

Elizabeth

How long do you think you're gonna be mad at me?

You were just doing your job.

Elizabeth

So, like, less than a year?

Probably.

Henry, he showed up out of nowhere. He's obviously stirred up from reading about his wife sleeping with her boss. When your friend's husband asks you if it's true, you don't feed the fire.

Elizabeth

This whole thing...

Yeah.

Elizabeth

Do you have any idea who it could've been?

I mean, it could've been a lot of people, Bess.

Elizabeth

Weren't that many people out to get me.

Maybe not out to get you, but if they were asked? They all had eyes. Whether anything happened or not, he clearly favored you.

Elizabeth

Wait...

Look, I know you didn't cross any lines. I mean, I don't even think there's anything wrong with how you benefited from it. Uh...

Elizabeth

Wow. So you think I used Conrad.

No. I'm-- I'm not... No. I'm not saying you didn't earn everything that you've achieved, and believe me, I will be first in line to vote for you. I know it's totally unfair to you, but it's not hard for people who saw your dynamic with Conrad to think there could have been something to those rumors.
