Jacqueline: She was telling someone else’s story.
Nicole: No one else came to me.
Jane: That’s because they were too scared to come forward.
Nicole: Who? Who was too scared?
Jane: I can’t say.
Jacqueline: Nicole, my being here with you, facing the woman who slept with my husband, sucks. But we are both professionals. We have both been in this business long enough to remember a time when sexism was so acceptable we wouldn’t dare complain about it. I know what I went through, all the times I kept my mouth shut out of fear or even if I spoke up, no one would listen. I think we owe it to this generation of women to make them feel heard.
Nicole: I hear women, Jacqueline. I just think it’s foolish to believe all of them. Women lie too.
Jacqueline: You’re right. Women do lie, and some lie to keep their jobs because they’re scared. So I’m asking you to talk to your staff again, make them feel safe enough to come forward, and if there’s a problem, be willing to see the truth for what it is.
Nicole: Oh, I see the truth very clearly.
Jacqueline: Good, then you’ll make the right decision.

The Bold Type Season 5 Episode 2 Quotes

Jack: So you came to me to ease your conscious?
Alex: No, I’m here to get his job back.
Jack: You realize that really isn't up to us anymore.
Alex: You’re the editor-in-chief.
Jack: Yeah I am, and I’ve got money to make, I’ve got a board to answer to. You pulled his pants down in front of the Twitterverse; that place never forgets.
Alex: Jack, come on. He made one dumb tweet.
Jack: I’m not saying Joey’s a bad guy, but in today’s world, he’s damaged goods, not worth the trouble.

Sutton: He’s flying to New York tonight, and he hasn’t said anything to me since he left.
Jane: Yeah.
Sutton: Although he did respond that one time saying that he needed space.
Jane: And you have this…
Sutton: What if he’s coming back to tell me he changed his mind?
Kat: Sutton?
Sutton: Then wouldn’t he just call or text?
Kat: Ok, Sutton.
Sutton: If he comes to New York and doesn’t call me…
Kat: Hey, do not spiral. You’ve been doing so good since the retreat.
Jane: And you have this huge opportunity to interview and style everyone for the sizzle reel.
Kat: You don’t want to screw this up, Sutton.
Sutton: You’re both right. Richard will get in touch if he wants when he wants. I just have to forget I saw the notification and focus on work.
