Rayna: Well you [Mr. Benton] may not be aware that she [Layla] is also underage and very recently overdosed on pills and almost drowned in Jeff Fordham's pool.
Jeff: Mr. Benton, I...
Rayna: You coerced my ex husband so you could cover up the incident, but I'm not gonna sit here and watch while he treats his female artists like this, and I sure as hell don't want my daughter having anything to do with it.

Hey Pete. I'm not exactly sure what your problem is. Maybe the good Lord only gave you two inches. I don't know. But I'll tell you one thing. You ever try to contact my friend again or in any way mess with her, I will make it my mission to ruin you. And unlike you, I actually have the power to do it.

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.

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?

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.

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.

Maddie: You're such a hypocrite.
Rayna: Excuse me? Alright, if you feel that way about it then we can have that conversation, but you need to be able do it in a respectful way.
Maddie: I don't respect you.
Rayna: Well then we have a problem.

It's not about you. You might of gotten her in the door here. This is her. She's making this happen. It's her talent. That's what she's got. I cannot wait for her to realize what a washed-up bottom-feeder you are, exploiting other people's hard work.

It's just every time I've looked in my future, you've always been in it. I don't know what I'm gonna do without you.

Rayna: You better watch yourself. I'm gonna make you write an album with me.
Deacon: I can think of worse ways to spend my time than that.

Now don't you dare go and leave me a widow.

I've had to do a lot of letting go lately. This one? Going to be real easy.
