Apollo: Why did you want a divorce?
Lillian: He was a good man. A real romantic. Fun. But marriage is a day-to-day, and a person like your dad, not so good with slow and steady.
Apollo: What does that even mean?
Lilian: Is there food in the fridge? Is the bed made? Are the bills paid? I had to put you in day care at two months old, so I could go back to work. Do you know what it feels like to hand over a two-month-old to strangers?
Apollo: Probably better than leaving a four-year-old alone.
Lilian: I had to leave him to keep afloat.
Apollo: So, he didn't abandon us? Wow.

The Changeling Season 1 Episode 2 Quotes

Emmy: Apollo takes the baby to the park every morning. He doesn't sleep much anymore either.
Kim: Brian?
Emmy: Apollo. Having nightmares. We're all a mess.
Kim: You could try a little Benadryl to help you sleep. You can take a little while you're breastfeeding. I'm worried about you, Emma. I see you, and I feel worried.

Did you know that the oldest known lullaby is a 5,000-year-old Babylonian song? Little baby in the dark house, you have seen the sun rise. Why are you crying? Why are you screaming? You have disturbed the house god. Tell me your journey. Each of you. Tell me your life's voyage, and I will tell you who you are.
