Shay: I mean, I wasn’t born a star, y’know. I came up from nothing. I know how to be nothing. You know what I mean.
Beau: Pretty sure I do.
Roarke: People are saying you’re the next big thing.
Beau: Well, I’m going to give it a try.
Shay: Uh, what he means to say is…
Beau: … Damn right. Watch me do it!
It’s scary, but it’s important to dive back into life.
Ruby
Helene: Life finally got back to something that feels normal.
Ruby: Normal. Normal is when you pause to catch your breath before you dive into something wonderful and scary that just takes your breath away.
Beau: I was trying something new / Figured I could blunder through / I guess I was always brave / But life is sometimes frightening / And the light can turn to lightning / When you step out on the stage / I was feeling rootless / Did I think that I could do this? / Couldn’t get out of my bed / And I remembered what you wrote / The last time you left a note / And this is what you said: / I can tell you’re loving your new home / It’s awfully small but it’s your own / And any time you feel alone / Please pick up the phone / Cause I’ll always be home / I’ll always be home / I was full of being empty / Didn’t have a soul to tend me / I was truly all alone / Then you wrapped your words around me / Did everything to ground me / You’re my roots and you’re my home / You’re my home.
Javier: You know you can always come back.
Helene: I know. That’s why I can go.
Beau: I gave her a tape once. A demo. She said is wasn’t bad.
Roarke: Well, that sounds encouraging.
Beau: In music, not bad means terrible. Not good enough. And honestly, I think that maybe a part of me wanted to hear that. Because it kept me from trying and failing which is the only thing that can really kill the dream.
Helene: Y’know, when I say you should meet me for breakfast, I thought breakfast would be something a little more portable.
Ruby: Any breakfast that can fit on one plate isn’t worth eating.
Shay: You ever try sourcing decorative Stetsons on an equatorial island? I got a Panama. You like it?
Beau: Look, all I know is I need a fringed vest and remember, any vest is a fringed vest if you own a pair of scissors.
Shay: You want me to infringe something?
Beau: You have no idea of all the problems that I solve for you without you even knowing about them. I’m just asking for a little bit of fringe!
Shay: I treat you like family!
Beau: Well, then you treat your family like crap.
Shay: You still have to figure out how to pretend you have a voice.
Beau: I would rather not have a voice than not have a soul.
Ruby: You have something up your sleeve, don’t you?
Roarke: Always.
