Matthew: "They're out to get me! This is the one time when I can say that and it won't sound crazy, because I am the founder of a company and I'm getting pushed out! 'They' are literally 'out to get me.'"
Alicia: "I'm afraid you still sound crazy. Look. You're smart, your words are easily twisted, by people who don't see as deeply as you. The sophistication of the message depends on the receiver, Matthew. They use the surface of your words..."

Q: "Stop it, Alicia. Are you married or aren't you? Are you married, Alicia?"

This decision tree goes back twenty years. It's the maypole they've always danced around, in good times and bad. Good timing, and bad.

Q: "And after he asked you that did he threaten to fire you?"
A: "Yes."
Q: "And why did he threaten that?"
A: "I don't know."

She's wearing a white suit, crisp-cut; her eyes betray half the sadness of his. And twice the fear. He's got her on the run, now. If he can make her break, if he can make her cry...

Q: "But later that night, didn't you say that Mr. Ashbaugh was in love with you?"
A: "I was joking, when I said that."
Q: "You were joking? Mr. Ashbaugh was in love with you, and would do anything you asked. You're saying that was a joke?"

She's as disgusted as he is, thinking about it.

She was wearing nothing, on the rooftop; wrapped around them, a silvery-blue duvet.

Alicia: "Don't worry, I can get him to change his mind. He cares about me."
Will: "Wrapped around your finger?"
Alicia: "I have my ways."

She has a job, if she wants it. When she drives off the mommy track and into the wilderness, when that bastard Peter turns on her like we all knew he would, she'll come knocking. She will bring her poison into his house.

Just writing the words down disgusts him, and he begins to cry. Too real, he thinks, and shakes his head.

"This is crazy romantic," Will said, as a bell began to toll out in the city. The weather was perfect. She was perfect.

"This is the happiest I've ever been," she may have whispered. The bell kept going. Some parts are real.

"Mrs. Florrick, you knew he was in love with you and you used it to get your way."

A: "I didn't intentionally use him..."
Q: "So it's ... just the way you are with men?"
