Darla: It just feels like all of this is moving really, really, fast.
Ralph Angel: Fast? I mean it took us a long time to get to a place this good.
Darla: I've been wanting this so badly for so long that I let us skip a bunch of steps, and I can't play house anymore. It's dangerous, at least for me.
Ralph Angle: You breaking up with me?
Darla: I don't think so. We need to be able to stand on our own before we can move forward together. You understand?
Ralph Angel: As long as we not breaking up.
Darla: We're not breaking. We're just slowing it down.
Remy: You two are still together as far as the world knows.
Charley: Not for long. Our lawyers are working on terms right now.
Remy: And once it's safe for you to be seen drinking with another man, then we can toast to that, but from now on...for now, I think it's best for both of us if we just keep things professional.
Violet: You want to take Charley out for her son's birthday?
Nova: Hell yeah! Sixteen years ago we were all waiting for that little sucker to come into the world while she was screaming up a storm. Remember?
Violet: I do.
Nova: Cause for celebration.
Violet: You just want to man hunt. You ain't fooling nobody.
Nova: Are we rolling or not?
Who says there has to be an order? I mean, no offense to your Mama, but that idea's outdated, just like the idea that we're incomplete without a partner and kids.
Nova
Now you've got to carry that black girl magic into your love life.
Nova
You never know, you might just find a Barry you can spit shine into a Barak.
Nova
Charley: I don't know what upsets me more. That you're with this instead of with your son on his birthday like you're suppose to be, or you're with this in public when we have worked so hard to control the press about our situation.
Davis: First of all, our son is 16 and he wanted to hang with his girlfriend. He blew me off. Second, come on Charley, give me some credit. Look around. Do you see any phones or cameras pointed at us. They know me here, they've got my back.
Charley: Even Hollywood and Vi didn't last.
Nova: I know. I thought they were forever.
Charley: Me too.
Violet: You see what you want to see, but the rest of us, we see Ralph Angel busting his butt trying to make this farm work.
Charley: So am I.
Violet: I know that, baby, but you've got multiple degrees behind your name proving what you already know; that you can do this. All I'm saying is it wouldn't hurt to affirm him every now and again. Thank you, yes, good job, instead of keeping him under your thumb.
Charley: No that, that's not what I'm doing. Trust me, I know exactly what it feels like to be under someone's thumb.
Nova: What are you talking about?
Charley: Those Wall Street guys, they won't give me the loan for the mill unless Davis signs off on it.
It's different though. You went in for something you did. This is who I am, and it will never be behind me. Ralph Angel, there's no cure for my disease. The meetings, my sponsor, they help. It's too much for anyone to do alone.
Darla
Blue: I miss Pop Pop.
Violet: Me too, baby. Every day.
I guess I should be used to people thinking there's no me without Davis.
Charley
