Everything that’s born into this world comes into its very own climate, soil, and time of year, and the idea with wine is that you can taste the terroir.
Simone
I laid eyes on this tub 16 years ago and I immediately saw my life. [...] I had to live a life worthy of it.
Simone
Simone: Serena… She was just like all of us: young and without any idea of what was going to happen. She couldn’t stand it, the uncertainty. Some people can’t. Then she met Fred Benson in this building and […] she decided to make the safe choice.
Heather: Be nice to Will, okay? He’s sweet.
Jake: Who’s sweet?
Heather: Not you.
Tess: Everyone has a type right?
Ari: No. You moron.
Will: Is it alright if I kiss you?
Tess: You know you said that out loud right?

Simone
Tess: You speak Spanish?
Sasha: Why wouldn't I?
Tess: You're Russian.
Sasha: I'm everything honey.
Tess: Sweet. Sour. Salty. Bitter.
Simone: Mhmm. Very good. Now your tongue is coded.
Tess: I'm used to being alone.
Simone: Me too.

Simone
You feel awful. Let's move past that and let's not eat out of the garbage.
