Melanie: What is it?
Sugar: I have a secret.

Someone once said, tip the world on its side, and everything loose lands in Los Angeles. Is that what is happening? After all this time, is this place starting to turn me upside down?

Sugar [internal]

Davy: I always felt like, like she didn’t like me, so I decided not to like her.
Sugar: She’s your sister. You were supposed to take care of her.

Davy: Women were always weird around me. Not weird, but I don’t know. I was a famous kid, I had this famous family, and they were around, so I never know how to, to figure out how to be normal with them, you know?
Sugar: By normal, what do you mean? You mean by not using violent threats to force women to have sex with you? Is that what you mean?

Margit: You are the last in a long line of great men and one day, you’ll inherit a fortune, and you know what you can do then?
Davy: What?
Margit: You can tell this town to go fuck itself.

Elsbeth: The guard was worried about corruption. 'Cause he knew that accepting any amount of money was wrong. That he could lose a stable job, even be on the hook for future favors.
Captain Wagner: Favors can be misinterpreted. Like how I helped your son get a new job. Someone might view you as exploiting the police force you are here to oversee.

Well, Chris Martin is an underrated genius.

Dr. Holmes

Detective Edwards: Aren't you a defense attorney?
Elsbeth: Yes.
Detective Edwards: Then you know that only hard evidence holds up in court. Not gut feelings from women who wear polka dots over the age of 15.

Elsbeth: You seem so calm. If my colleague was brutally murdered down the hall, I'd be choking down something glazed or powdered.
Dr. Holmes: Well, I suppose I have a very strong constitution. When you cut into people for a living, it's pretty gruesome. If I had a weak stomach, I don't think I'd get very far.

Ooh. Look, it's the Empire State Building. Oh, I can't believe it, I love it so much. Don't tell the Chrysler Building I said that.

Elsbeth

OA: It was a close call.
Maggie: Too close.

Tiffany: All those women and children, this could get ugly quick.
Maggie: Yeah.
