Emily: "Not in the way you mean!"
Paige: "Wow, women really aren't funny."
Emily: "Don't look away from me. I want you to look in my eyes. And I want you to pretend I've just shown up here, high as a kite, slurring my words and talking gibberish. And I just want you to take it from there."
MONTGOMERY
Byron: "Aria? Why are you sitting on the floor sobbing? Can I talk to you about it?"
Aria: "Look, did I ruin Ezra's life? I mean, I know technically it was you, but does this really all come down to me?"
Byron: "Far be it from me to admit a single thing I've ever done wrong, but..."
Aria: "Seriously, just be a dad for a second. Am I really fucking up his life? Am I responsible for his poverty and wangst? Am I just... Destroying everything that I touch?"
Byron, sweet hug: "No. You couldn't. You would never hurt anyone. And no one could ever be harmed by having you in their life."
Not exactly a Rupert Giles Award-winner for Greatest Dad Clutch Play, but it's so nice to see Aria get a hug from her poor father, especially with Meredith on the horizon, that it's touching all the same.
RADLEY
Hanna: "So... That was a bloodbath, huh?"
Wren: "On the contrary! You've convinced the board to keep her!"
Hanna: "How unlikely!"
They hop around for a second and then she pops up into his face for a quick kiss and it's so, so funny and well-done and beautiful, and they both lean back dazed and slightly horrified, and it's wonderful. This episode: Wonderful.
Wren, verbatim: "I... thought you'd be ... pleased?"
Hanna: "I... Am? Thank you?"
Wren: "Uh... You're welcome?"
And scene.

Liars: "We should not be watching this. But we are."
A video, for example, of Emily eating and Maya making her laugh. Intimate and sweet and weird to see now. It is revealed that the videos are jumbled into the Website Page without order or reason, and you don't know what they are until you open them up.
Spencer, scornful: "More of a junk drawer than a journal."
Hanna: "The important thing is that Mona is legitimately being helpful! I may just give a speech!"
