I never thought I'd get out of that hole. Never. It's not just the dirt floor and the darkness that gets you. It's the isolation. It's the silence. It breaks something in you. I just kept picturing your face. Your face saved me. I'm here because you saved me.

Are we really going to..
Slut-shame a dead girl? All aboard.
Where were you?
You have to stop asking questions.
Look, I am worried about you.
You have to stop asking questions! You're not worried about me. You're interested. You want to know what it feels like to do the things that I do. I see you. I see that look in your eye every time you ask me one of your questions about where I was and what I've been doing. You're interested. And maybe that's because you're able to see me, to... How my mouth has been dry for months, how I've been squirming and vibrating and it wouldn't stop until the other night when everything just stopped and I wasn't thirsty anymore.
What about me?
Baby Huck it.
He needs you, Olivia. He is tired and broken and it isn't the job. It's doing the job without you. He's not alive when you're not here. He can't breathe when you're not here. He doesn't have the will to run much less win when you're not here because you... You're everything to him, Liv. He needs you. So I need you to come back.
There’s probably only two people in this world who can tell me if this really happened. One of those people is my father and I can't ask him because he'll probably kill both of you or maybe even all three of us to teach me some kind of sick lesson. And the other is the President.
I have so many questions I want to ask you. But I'm afraid you'll kill my friends if I do. So, you know, let's just talk about the weather or how I can't form attachments to people because my mother is dead and my father is that thing that goes bump in the night or… You pick a topic.
I just don't understand why I have to apologize for his affair.
Because that's how it works.
You control everything. Which is precisely why I want to kill you... and have sex with you at the same time.
You don't have to love me, but we are in this hell together and the flames are burning both of us with equal intensity, baby, so the least you can do is be my friend. Just a little bit. The least you could do is show up. Show up for me. Show up for me, Fitz, instead of being like some stranger.

So you're here to babysit me now?
If you're good, I'll let you stay up past your bedtime.
You're worried about James cheating on me? That's...oddly sweet.
Once you open that door, Cyrus, you cannot close it again. It changes you. Changes everything.
My husband's not your husband, Mellie.
I'm disappointed in you, Quinn. You've been a bad girl and I need to know exactly what you've been up to. But before we start, I need to say I'm sorry. I'm so sorry because I'm going to enjoy this. I'm going to love it and I don't want to. What's that stupid thing the kids are saying? YOLO? YOLO, Quinn.
Normal boyfriends do favors for their girlfriends.
Normal girlfriends don't dabble in aiding and abetting.

Here's the thing about power, Rowan. It's always hard to admit when you've lost it.
Or to admit you've never had any at all.
