S1 E15Unfinished Business

You kiss a billionaire once you make 200 grand. I've been kissing Victoria's ass all summer and I'm lucky she lets me call her by her first name.

Defense lawyers use the term duress to describe the use of force, coercion, or psychological pressure exerted on a client in the commission of a crime. When duress is applied to the emotionally unstable, the result can be as violent as it is unpredictable.

I googled friendship on the interwebs. Apparently, when you have a fight with a friend, you're supposed to apologize.

Word of advice. Leave the joke cracking to me. You suck at it.

Duress impacts relationships in one of two ways: it either tears people apart or strengthens their connection, binding them tightly in a common objective.

For the average person leading an ordinary life, fame holds an hypnotic attraction. Men would sooner perish than exist in anonymity, but the unlucky few who've had notoriety forced upon them, infamy can be a sentence more damning than any prison term.

People are fond of saying that you cant un-ring a bell, and while that may be true, you can certainly smother its ring to the dull world of conjecture and lies. But some words ring out like church bells, rising above the din, calling us to the truth. Some words are immortal. Long buried or even burnt, they are destined to be reborn like a phoenix rising from the ashes. And when they do, they can literally take your breath away.

I've always been amazed at how you can make 20,000 square feet feel warm and inviting. Still, without Conrad, it feels somehow empty. Now, rumor has it, he's moved into the South Fork.

And good riddance. This is one village that won't miss its idiot.

Spineless, seer-sucking dilettante! I haven't been this disappointed since Phantom Menace.

Some say that our lives are defined by the sum of our choices. But it is'nt really our choices that distinguish who we are; Its our commitment to them.

This seat taken?

It's a free beach.

Amanda's gone.

Yeah, well, kudos to you. Looks like the ends finally justify the means, or should I say meanness.

Are you finished?

I don't know. Are you?

I'll never be finished. But after what happened to Jack I think it's clear I need to minimize the fallout from what I'm doing. I think it's a good time to press pause on all of this.

And do what?

Regroup. Maybe there's a better way to level Victoria than by marrying her son.

And what do you plan to do with Daniel?

I'm gonna give him his ring back. Tell him that I need to give marrying into his family some more thought. That's actually kind of true.

For once. [puts his arm around her] Baby steps.

Don't do that. [he takes his arm back]

For some, commitment is like faith, a chosen devotion to another person or an intangible idea. But for me, commitment has a shadow side, a darker drive that constantly asks the question - How far am I willing to go?

Years ago, I met a boy who introduced me to a book 'The Marriage of Heaven and Hell'. In it, William Blake writes "If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is - infinite". But in reality, our perception is often clouded by expectations, by experiences. As of late, I find my perception is clouded by only one thing - revenge.
