My parents. They want to help. Look, I know you don't want to talk about it, but what does it matter how much money I accept from them if it makes our lives easier and it's all going to be mine anyway?!

Helen

Whitney: I don't want to be an asshole.
Noah: Then you don't have to.
Whitney: Well then what do I do? How do I unsshole myself?
Noah: Just stop doing bad things.

Oh, so you're not only mean, you're also stupid.

Noah

Are you out of your mind?! A child just tried to take her own life because of what our kid did. Jesus! All you can think about is your money?

Noah

Det. Jeffries: One more thing.
Alison: Of course.
Det. Jeffries: The night of the wedding, did you notice anything off about him?
Alison: No, he was acting like himself.
Det. Jeffries: Did you see him leave?
Alison: No, we left first.
Det. Jeffries: And drove back to the city.
Alison: That's right.
Det. Jeffries: OK. Great. That's all my questions. Thank you again for coming in.

One day you will regret choosing him over me.

Athena

Athena: You're having an affair with that man.
Alison: What?! No I'm not.
Athena: Oh please, Alison, I'm an energy reader and I'm very familiar with lust energy. It's obvious. You just had sex.
Alison: What?! That's insane.
Athena: Oh fine. You don't have to admit it to me, but I just want you to know I totally approve. You deserve some joy. There's been so much pain. This is the first time I've seen your life force since we lost Gabriel. You think I"m not with you, but I am. Energetically, I am with you all the time and I know that the pain was unbearable so you shut down your heart. Well, now it's open. You are allowing a vital flow of energy to flow through you to connect with someone else in a real way. That's what life is, sweetie, It's not about some oppressive set of rules from about 2,000 years ago about good wife/daughter/mother-ness.

Det. Jeffries: So Oscar had a relationship with the victim?
Alison: Yeah. They were friends.
Det. Jeffries: And Scotty stopped by that day because...
Alison: I honestly don't know, Detective. You asked if I remembered them being together, and that's what I remember.
Det. Jeffries: Do you remember being worried at the time?
Alison: No. But I should have been.

I love that dress on you.
