## Quotes

**Alexis**: Oh, I didn't expect you to join me.
**Anders**: Well, I didn't expect to go bald, but these things happen.
**Anders**: I hope you called me here to tell me that Oliver is halfway around the world.
**Alexis**: If by *"the world"* you mean *"this hotel"* and by *"halfway"* you mean *"six floors up"*? Yes.

**Adam**: I can't do this anymore. Come home with me or.. or we're done.
**Kirby**: Well, I'm staying, so I guess we're done.

**Blake**: Not so fast. Look, he'll do whatever we say once you whip out Blake's favorite tool.
**Fallon**: You hear how that sounds, right?

**Blake**: Well, sometimes all you need is a little luck.
**Fallon**: Luck? Luck you.

**Alexis**: I like my caffeine ethical.
**Sam**: As opposed to the rest of your life?

**Cristal**: Dominique. Hi. Um, this got delivered to the main house for you.
**Dominique**: And you're delivering it yourself? Should I get the bomb-sniffing dogs?

**Cristal**: You played a big part in getting the manor back from Alexis and I'm grateful.
**Dominique**: Don't mention it. She was a horrible landlord.

**Fallon** *(to Blake)*: Just makes it sound like I'm some sorta of diva who's impossible to work with - *Amir, why would I want a cake pop? I'm not six.* - Which is obviously not true.

**Alexis**: They always say the first thing to go is the memory. Card.

**Dominique** *(to Kat)*: I'd suggest calling the fashion police, but they'd probably arrest you for bad taste.

**Candy**: Let me guess. You were a TriDelt at Princeton?
**Fallon**: Nope. Just a regular bitch at NYU.

**Candy**: You're so lucky. To be old and make your own decisions.
**Fallon**: Totally. *#OldAndBlessed*.

**Fallon**: Hey, uh, Candy! Screw Princeton! Girl Power! Own the patriarchy!

**Kirby**: Spare me the lecture. I'm an adult.
**Joseph**: Now you see, that's the first thing you've said that I agree with. You are an adult, and you are free to live your life any way you like. Just not here. And not like this.
**Kirby**: So you're kicking me out?
**Joseph**: Unless you decide you want to change your behavior.
*Kirby scoffs softly.*
**Joseph** *(chuckles)*: So, there's nothing further to discuss. Trust me, it's for your own good. When you're ready, I'll be here.
**Kirby**: No, you won't. Because all you've ever done is abandon me.
