- Navid Shirazi: [with Adriana in his arms after sex] This feels really wrong.
- Adrianna Tate-Duncan: Us being together, or that we just did it in Silver's bed?
- Navid Shirazi: I don't know, the Silver-bed part pretty much overshadows everything else.
- Mark Holland: You know that ex-wife I don't like to talk about? We sort of have two kids.
- Naomi Clark: What?
- Annie Wilson: And like your probation, that just didn't come up?
- Naomi Clark: Okay, you know what? I... I am an amazing aunt. Like, the greatest one in the world. Why would you deprive your children of me?
- Mark Holland: Because I'm a lousy father. This weekend is their eleventh birthday. I promised them a special day, and I'm missing it.
- Annie Wilson: Well, that's not your fault, Mark.
- Naomi Clark: It's Annie's.
- Dixon Wilson: Why would you even say Michaela's mad at you?
- Erin Silver: She's not answering her phone and she's not speaking to me, and it's your fault.
- Dixon Wilson: All my fault? I just defended you.
- Erin Silver: Well, you wouldn't have to defend me if you hadn't talked me into letting her write that song.
- Dixon Wilson: It was a one in a million shot!
- Erin Silver: Yeah, well, I'm not exactly feeling lucky. I'm sorry. Look, I've got somethings going on in my life, and I can't really deal with an angry surrogate, so please fix this.
- Dixon Wilson: How am I supposed to fix...
- [the line disconnects]
- Dixon Wilson: Hello? Silver? Okay, now I'm really starting to wish that I was the brother in jail.
- Dixon Wilson: So, I figured we'd take our minds off of the missed opportunity and my half-brother in jail by doing something positive, like recording some background vocals to your song.
- [seeing Michaela eating her bear claw]
- Dixon Wilson: Or we could just record the sound of you getting diabetes.
- Michaela: There's free bear claws in the lobby.
- Dixon Wilson: Michaela, everything you eat is free. Silver buys your groceries.
- Michaela: She doesn't buy me bear claws. Hmm. She's gonna be so mad when she sees this.
- Guard #2: Welcome to California Correctional Center. For your safety, remove all outer clothing; jackets, sweaters, purses, and place them on the table. No drugs, weapons, cell phones, keys, or cash over $50 are allowed. Enjoy your visit.
- Naomi Clark: [sardonic laugh] How could we not? It's like a first-class trip to Europe.
- Liam Court: Seeing my head on a balloon is just disturbing.
- Naomi Clark: Don't overinflate. It makes you look jowly.
- Michaela: It's a routine checkup. I don't need a police escort.
- Erin Silver: I have a doctor's appointment of my own. Plus, I need to get copies of your medical records for the new doctor in Washington, D.C. Dixon is the one tagging along for no reason.
- Dixon Wilson: We need to talk about this.
- Erin Silver: Yeah, like we talked about submitting Michaela's demo? Hey, maybe when I'm not looking, you can slip it to the guy who picks the elevator music.
- Dixon Wilson: Adrianna leaked the demo, okay? She also said you only think about yourself, so if you send Michaela to D.C., you're basically proving her right.
- Erin Silver: Yeah, well, I really don't care what Ade thinks.
- Michaela: And I think the stress of being the rope in your game of tug of war is actually making me physically ill. I'm going to the doctor by myself. Whichever one of you is still standing when I get home wins.
- Liam Court: I know what you're gonna say. I shouldn't take them anywhere without telling you.
- Naomi Clark: But you understood what they needed more than I did, because you know what it feels like to be the kid everyone lied to.
- Liam Court: Yeah, something like that.
- Naomi Clark: [slapping him, hard] How dare you work out your messed-up psychological issues at the expense of my family?
- Liam Court: Naomi...
- Naomi Clark: No, don't. I don't... I don't care about how hurt you are by all the women in your life, or how you refuse to be a part of a lie. I was keeping Mark's ex-wife from finding out that he was in jail so that he wouldn't lose custody. Thanks to you, there's nothing to stop the woman from taking those kids to the other side of the country. So no matter what, Mark either loses them or I lose Mark.
- Liam Court: Naomi, I'm sorry.
- Naomi Clark: And you are sorry.
- Annie Wilson: Liam, I never meant to...
- Liam Court: Lie to me? Use me? Join the club. Apparently, it's what I'm here for.
- Annie Wilson: I didn't lie to you. I just didn't tell you about the book because it was personal. Writing it had nothing to do with you.
- Liam Court: Then why am I getting fan mail for the Leo the brooding loner?
- Annie Wilson: Because I write compelling characters? I'm sorry.
- Liam Court: You should be sorry that you ruined my life.
- Annie Wilson: And how exactly did I ruin your life?
- Liam Court: By being in it.
- Annie Wilson: Okay, look, I told the truth, and I stood up to Patrick because it was the right thing to do. I hate that people I care about got hurt, but I'm gonna fix it.
- Liam Court: Don't. Because everything you do just makes things worse.
- Annie Wilson: Mark's lawyer needs access to sealed files in the D.A.'s office, but that would take an act of God or one word from someone like your mother. By the way, your sister stopped by this morning and wants to know why you won't return your mom's calls.
- Jordan Welland: Yeah, you don't understand.
- Annie Wilson: You're right. Uh, your family wants to help my brother, and you said no. I don't understand.
- Jordan Welland: The only person my mother helps is herself, and she doesn't do favors without expecting something in return. I mean, it'd be like making a deal with the devil, Annie. Believe me, you don't know my family.
- Annie Wilson: But I know mine. Mark could go to jail. And if that happens, I will never forgive myself, and Naomi will never forgive you. So if that means making a deal and spending Christmas at grandma's next year, then I think that's a pretty fair trade for the most important person in Naomi's life.
- Michaela: Why are my clothes in the living room?
- Erin Silver: I thought I'd help you pack. A producer from the Spencer Blane concert called. He wants Michaela on stage this week.
- Dixon Wilson: What?
- Erin Silver: They loved the demo Dixon sent in, and they think your song is gonna be a big hit.
- Michaela: Are you serious? They liked the song?
- Dixon Wilson: Whoa, whoa. Everybody slow down. I never sent in the demo.
- Michaela: But Silver's packing. That means I'm going on tour. I got the job.
- Erin Silver: Actually, you already have a job, carrying my baby. And that's never gonna happen on a tour bus, so I told them you were unavailable. I'm packing your bags because I'm moving you back to Washington, D.C.
- Dixon Wilson: What?
- Michaela: Silver, you can't do that.
- Erin Silver: Actually, I can, because we have a contract. So I'm gonna supervise the rest of your pregnancy. But from now on, you two aren't living together, you're not working together, and your music career is over.
- Naomi Clark: I talked to Mark. Olivia, his daughter, loves princess parties. Done. But Dylan is a sci-fi fan, and the only thing that's gonna make his birthday dream come true is if Liam Court from "Corporate Invaders" comes. Please.
- Liam Court: Naomi, nothing against Mark, but I don't do children's parties.
- Naomi Clark: No, I totally understand. By the way, I read online that Annie's book is a real hit with the retirement community. You should stock up on calcium chews, because tomorrow night this place is gonna be crawling with geriatric Leo fans.
- Liam Court: What time do we leave?
- Naomi Clark: I'll pick you up at ten.
- Annie Wilson: You missed the celebration. Mark's gonna be okay. Those kids aren't gonna lose their dad.
- Liam Court: No thanks to me.
- Annie Wilson: Well, moving to Vermont isn't the end of the world.
- Liam Court: It is to Naomi. I did what I thought was right, and it blew up someone's life. Sound familiar?
- Annie Wilson: But you didn't mean for anybody to get hurt, so eventually people will get over it and move on. Right?
- Liam Court: That's what I wanna do, too.
- Annie Wilson: I am so glad that you said that, because I really am so sorry. And I-I will set up a million meetings with surf stars for you to sponsor if that's what it takes.
- Liam Court: That's... that's not what I meant. I... Sydney came to me tonight. She made me realize that sometimes the best way to get past mistakes is to hit the reset button and start over. And so that's what we're gonna do. Annie, I... I want you to buy the Offshore so that me and Sydney can move to Australia.
