Quotations

 * Liam: "The day that that pink monstrosity was chosen was a shoot day here at the studio when we recorded a bunch of Handbooker Helper. And he and Bailey were off in a corner laughing hysterically at different choices and none of them were it."
 * Dani: "Most Talks Machinas are Critical Recap spoilers."
 * Dani: "You can't be a criminal without a law to break."
 * Marisha: "Self-loathing runs deep."
 * Marisha: "I'd experience a lot with Yasha if she'd stick around more."
 * Marisha: "A lot is revealed in moments of pressure and stress."
 * Liam: "We all have our Larkin moments, right?"
 * Marisha: "[Molly] was better than [Beau], so she treated him like shit because of it. And then he died. And she didn't really have any reconciliation, and I think that was the first time she really encountered that in her life."
