2. Laurel: "How am I supposed to move forward, when everyone I've ever loved is gone?" Lyla: "By not giving up. By doing the right thing. We honor the dead by fighting for the living. This world needs you too." (Justyna)
3. Oliver: "If I'm wrong... If I'm wrong, then all of this is for nothing. Do you understand, Tatsu? I left Felicity. I left my children, so if... if... if the... if the Monitor can't fix this and if he is not here to help, then all of these things that I've sacrificed and all the things that so many other people have already sacrificed will have been for nothing. I need my family to live, which means that I need this to work." (Justyna)

2. Abishola: "I need to stop meeting with him, then the dreams would go away." Gloria: "Oh, no no no, that'll just make it worse. Whatever feelings you have for this guy will just pop up somewhere else, like Whack-A-Mole." Abishola:"What is Whack-A-Mole?" Gloria:"It's a game where you whack a mole and another one pops up." Abishola: "That is a horrible game." Gloria: "They're not real moles." Abishola: "Then why are you whacking them?" Gloria: "Okay, let’s start over.

Abishola: “My body yearns for nothing (groans) Maybe an Advil.” Kemi: “Well, if you will not believe me, at least talk to someone who knows about these things.” Abishola: “Are you suggesting I go to a psychiatrist. Kemi, please. That is American nonsense.” Kemi: “I was talking about a psychic.” Abishola: “Oh okay, maybe. Do you know someone?” Kemi: “I do. She’s dead but she’s still very effective.”
4. Gloria: “I’m sorry. You can’t be here when you’re contagious. That guy is one sneeze away from wearing a toe tag. (Abishola shushes her.) Oh, he knows. He gave me his watch.”

1. Sebastian: “It’s just...I’m in my 30’s, living with my best friend, which is great.” Gregorio: “It’s great.” Sebastian: “It’s totally great.” Gregorio: “But…” Sebastian: “But, you know, I think I want more eventually, I guess. I don’t know. I don’t want to be a grumpy old man living with a grumpy old woman.” Gregorio: “What?” Sebastian: “You’re a grumpy young woman. You’re gonna be a grumpy old woman. You can’t deny that.”
2. Gregorio: “First comes love, then comes polygraph.”

3. Ginny: “Look, you two are both grieving so maybe instead of taking your anger out on each other, try to find a little common ground in your sorrow.” Arthur: “No, it’s not the same thing.
