When Pete showed up, I was just so scared. I wanted something to just make feel a little bit more in control. A little bit safer. But I never thought that I would kill him. I did not mean to kill him.

Sadie

Glenn: Sadie Stone shot her ex husband. Rayna's with her down at the police station.
Juliette: I cannot believe she would choose to shot someone on the day of my shower.

Pete: Did you really think you could humiliate me on national television and get away with it?
Sadie: Did you really think you could beat the crap out of me and get away with it?

Layla: I'm just thinking about how I got myself in the same situation again.
Jeff: What situation is that?
Layla: A relationship where I try and change a guy into something that he's not.
Jeff: Don't be ridiculous, Layla. You can't possibly be comparing me to Will.
Layla: He was incapable of loving me, and so are you.
Jeff: Layla, come on I told you I wanna try this.
Layla: Yeah, but that's just the thing. You shouldn't have to try and love someone.

Luke: You know what, Sadie? You got a good ear, and not just for music. I don't usually spend this much time talking about my feelings with a woman I hardly know.
Sadie: Well, I won't tell anybody.

You [Deacon] might die, but if you do, I would rather have us be together, the way we were always meant to be, for as long as possible, and if something horrible happens, well then, I would rather my girls have the opportunity to see what true love looks like. I don't ever want to protect them from that, even if it ends. You are not going to be able to protect us from the pain of this. You're just not. So let's at least experience the joy of whatever life has to offer for us right now. Please stop fighting me. Fight for us. We screwed this thing up a million times but we're not gonna do that now.

Rayna

Rayna: You've always said that you wanted to be the man that I know you are, and now you have the opportunity to do that with me by your side.
Deacon: It's not that simple, Rayna.
Rayna: Of course it is. What are you so afraid of? Do you not believe in us enough?
Deacon: [sighs]
Rayna: Well, if you were trying to break my heart, you just did.

Deacon: I will be damned if I'm gonna drag you through all the hurt and the disappointment, look at the pity in your eyes.
Rayna: Look in my eyes. That's not pity. It's love. Don't you get that?

Gunnar: Wanna help me set up our band's Twitter profile?
Scarlett: We already have a Twitter profile?
Gunnar: Of course. We got to generate publicity. We just need a photo, that's all.
Scarlett: Why?
Gunnar: Well, if you don't upload a photo, then you're just an egg, and no one takes you seriously when you're just an egg.

You [Deacon] leaving like that hurts. It hurts as bad as it did the first time you ever did it. And I know we've skipped a few steps here, but babe, please don't leave me anymore.

Rayna

Colt: Well, I was thinking that maybe I could come home, for good. Could be nice spending some more time together.
Luke: With me or with Maddie?
Colt: With both of you. Are you mad?
Luke: No son, I'm not mad. Heart wants what the heart wants.

Layla: I'm not your puppet, okay? I don't know what I am to you, but I sure as hell am not that.
Jeff: Okay, fine. Then what do you think we should do next? Come on, Harvard. What are your genius ideas?
Layla: Have you forgotten that you work for me now?
Jeff: Oh really? Is that so?
Layla: Yes, really. 'Cause everybody else in town hates your guts.
Jeff: [interrupts and kisses her] Everybody?
