Violet: Me and my hard-headed nephew aren’t on the best of terms right now.
Darla: You’re right. I shouldn’t even be talking about this with you.
Violet: No, we’re family. I’m exactly who you should be talking to. Even if we’re not on good terms, I am always here for you and him. Always.
Ralph Angel: I got family now. Kids. I need them to be proud of me.
Theo: Families respect men who provide. They don’t give a damn how you do it as long as you do it. You feel me.
Nova: You’re famous.
Charley: Infamous is more like it. Black Twitter is letting me have it.
Nova: Black Twitter ain’t no joke.
I know what I’m doing tonight is wrong, even though it’s for the right reasons. It’s wrong. And I probably shouldn’t ask you this, but keep me safe tonight, please. I promise from here on out I’m going to do right. I’m going to be the type of man my family can be proud of. That’s my word.

Hollywood: Vi, legacy is about more than just kids.
Charley: Social media is going crazy and…
Violet: Oh, Charley. Social media. Why do you care so much about what folks think about who you are in a relationship with? Most of those folks you don’t know from a can of paint.
Charley: Good question and good point.
Billie: Nova, I owe you an apology for how I told your father about your private life back then. It was wrong under any circumstance, and I am truly sorry.
Nova: I’ve wanted to hear that for a long time. Apology accepted. It’s time we focus on the future, not the past.
Prosper: You were always your own person, Billie. And sometimes that didn’t fit in with what I wanted you to be, and I was wrong for that. I hope you can forgive me for all of the times that I failed you.
Billie: I love you so much, and I’m sorry for anything I ever did that embarrassed you or made you feel like I wasn’t worthy of your love.
Prosper: You were always worthy, and I love you so much.
